I purchased a vehicle on October 25th 2024, and I was charged sales tax. The vehicle was an ************ Vehicle). Electric vehicles bought in any capacity are exempt from sales tax in the state of ********** (*****************************************************************************************************************************)**************** includes a list of eligible vehicles, which my vehicle is included in. Both RCW 82.08.809 and RCW 82.12.809 make it clear that sales tax should not be applied. Copart charged me a sales tax of $1,405.81 regardless. I have contacted Copart several times through their sales tax refund line and they have made little effort to make this right. I keep getting told "we're looking into it" or "we apologize for any inconvenience in the delay". Like any business, Copart is quick to take your money, and not so fast to give it back when it's ill gotten. It's been over 6 months ago since I purchased the vehicle, Copart has still not refunded the money.The next step is legal action.Business Response

Our ************** has confirmed that the tax credit has been issued and is currently available in the member's unapplied funds in the amount of $1,405.81. These funds can be used toward a future purchase, or a refund may be requested by emailing ****************************************** If requesting a refund, please be sure to include the member number and account details in your email.

Copart respectfully request the BBB to close this complaint as we have processed the tax credit and funds are available to our member.Customer Answer

On January 14, 2025, I purchased Lot #********,, a 2018 DODGE JOURNEY GT, through Copart. This transaction was processed successfully through my account with your bank. However, I have encountered several issues that necessitate a review of this transaction.Copart failed to deliver the vehicle as promised, which constitutes a clear violation of the terms agreed upon at the time of purchase. According to our agreement, I was to receive the aforementioned 2018 DODGE JOURNEY GT; however, upon delivery, I discovered that the vehicle was giving out a very strong odor of mold. I noticed the battery was completely exploded and upon further review it was totally dead. I installed a new battery to find out that nothing works at all. So not only is the vehicle in need of body work but it is now worthless for the means of fixing such a issue. Nowhere in the listing or after contacting copart was there to be massive water damage. I purchased 5 vehicles from Copart so it took me a few days to actually inspect the vehicle, but I promptly contacted Copart regarding this issue, as it should be covered under their guarantee. The response I received indicated that the vehicle was sold 'as is, where is.' After multiple back and forth emails with the yard manager they said that now I was outside the guarantee days Furthermore, I have made multiple attempts to resolve this issue directly with Copart, including emails and chats with various representatives, including the site manager and regional manager, but have not received a satisfactory response or resolution. This lack of communication and failure to adhere to the agreed terms has left me with a massive loss.. Had I been aware of these issues, I would not have engaged in business with Copart. I had placed my trust in a reputable company, believing they would honor their commitments documentation, including receipts, My account has been banned, preventing me from accessing important documentation and reviewing previous sales.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because the vehicle received was different from the listing. Putting a listing up and misleading information is not any different than stealing. If I listed a item for sale online at any auction and said here is a item that needs some work because of a accident but you receive a vehicle that has been in a flood that is 100 percent deception. Also I never received a title and you ha e violated the copart guarantee. I maybe not able to afford to fight but it will not stop me from attempting to fight for my rights. I made a big mistake to trust copart and you want to involve private parties to make more money but you can't just make up rules as you go along to protect against fraud.Business Response

Hey, I purchase a car from Copart its an online auction. I found out the car had water damages so I requested a refund from the General manager, The general manager stated Copart policy does not refund once vehicle is paid in full. But he offered to buy it back as a one time courtesy. I accepted the offer and request the funds to be sent as credits (unnapplied funds) so I can purchase a different car immediately. He wrote me back in email and told me he completed my request. The funds was in the unnaplied funds. After 5 minutes of the Gm unlocking my account so I can use the funds in my account, the money was removed. I email the Gm to ask what happen and he was un sure, he said upper management move it without verifying anything. He said he will help me get it back on there but the next day he was fired. The assistant manager told me he was removed from Copart. I tried contacting the regional manager she did not respond. Now I can not email anyone from Copart because the regional manager block my emails. The price for the car was 3800$ in totalBusiness Response

I created a new account with my iCloud because I was unable to log back in to my old account. I chatted with a copart agent because I needed the account to get verified so I can purchase a car. The agent told me it will take 24-48hrs to complete. So I ask can he just delete my new account and change my email so I can log back in and only have 1 account. I couldnt log in to my old one because copart couldnt send the verification code to my email. I will attached a screenshot of the real reason copart suspended my account since ********************** is still stating false information. The general manager unlocked my account so I can use my funds in my account to purchase a car immediately. Without any warning the money was remove 3-5 minutes later. I email the ** to find out what happened and the ** did not know what happened to it. He said upper management move it without verifying anything. The ** promise he will help me get the funds back in my account because that was apart of the contract he made but after The Weekend he was fired and everyone else kept ignoring me. The assistant manager was also fired after I sent the buyer AR team a screenshot of the conversation between me and assistant manager. The AM stated copart policy, copart does not offer refunds. Copart policy was broke and so was my contract. I do not have access to the debit card I used. Thats my babymother card she allow me to use it to make the purchase because we split tax money for our kids but I could not access that card anymore because we are not speaking. I used her same bank last year to purchase a **** mustang from copart as well I used my debit card to pay for transportation this time. I I initially requested everything to be sent back to my card only but that was denied because the AM told me copart policy states it does not refund once vehicle is paid in full. I received the money for the transportation back to my card but I do not have the funds from copart for my vehicle they purchase back. The ** stated he completed my request which was apart of the contract. Copart took it upon themselves to take back the money without verifying anything I will attach a screenshot of the ** stating that to me.Initial Complaint

On Feb 12, 2025 I placed a bid on the Copart Website for a 2017 Jeep Wrangler for $10,500. Lot # ******** ******* Tx. Upon Further Research I determined the vehicle was not a Rubicon. The vehicle pictured had the word Rubicon over the hood. I checked the Vin # on this vehicle and found out it wasn't a true Rubicon. I tried to cancel my bid and there was no option to do that. I won the bid and now the amount due was $13,161.56. I felt this was overpriced and this was a salvaged vehicle no less. This is a website , should not be charging over $2500 in fees. This is false advertising and I want this transaction cancelled and relisted. This company now wants to charge me a $1000 stocking fee and $50 late fee every day. After researching this company I have also noticed there were close to 500 complaints over the past few years. I acted in good faith and ask them to do the same especially If I plan on doing business in the future. Thank You!Business Response

Copart banned me for a week just because my phone number was similar to another account, without checking my name, address, or any details. During this ban, I won a car but couldn't pay due to the restriction. I contacted them multiple times, but they ignored my requests. After a week, they admitted their mistake and restored my account, but they relisted my car and asked me to pay a penalty! I warned them in emails that I wasn't responsible if my account wasn't restored in time. A manager later removed the fee but banned me again without reason. Now, they claim they will refund my money, but I haven't received anything yet. Unacceptable!Customer Answer

To become a Copart member, an individual must pay the non-refundable membership fee and agree to Copart’s binding Member Terms and Conditions. ***** ******* member notes indicate that he consented to the Terms and conditions on 5/16/2024. These Member Terms and Conditions state:

Copart respectfully request the BBB to close this complaint as we have informed Mr. ***** of the documentation needed to verify his member account. Accordingly, Copart rejects any and all demands ***** ***** has regarding a refund.Customer Answer

I am rejecting this response because: I was never informed that my member account validation process failed due to an address discrepancy. As you can see in attached documentation in there policies is clear states “In order to be able to bid or purchase vehicles through Copart, you must additionally satisfy other Member requirements as specified herein and successfully complete and pass Copart's onboarding and screening requirements.”
Jan. 30th 1:46 pm Not only was I able to bid on this vehicle but bid was accepted and was informed I won and would be able to pick up vehicle once payment was received.
Then about 2 1/2 hours later at 4:17 pm received an e- mail stating account status changed do to failed verification and if I had questions to contact the office.On Feb. 4th I paid for car in full as well as all other fees etc. payment was not only expected but I was also sent Sales Receipt/Bill of Sale that was
Dated 02/04/25 04:24 AM. That not only does it show car was paid for but also states Document evidences transfer of title from seller to Member. That shows me , ***** ***** as member and Copart as seller.Although sale was already completed I did submit requested documentation for address verification. Not sure why that’s even relevant as vehicle still will need to be registered and the sale was completed. Everything I submitted was rejected although it’s what they said they needed.
After 3 weeks of getting nowhere. Copart had clearly breached contract by refusing to release my car so I went to bank and stopped payment for $1,793.45. That is not including $99 “member fee” or storage fee I paid in addition to that is shown under un-applied funds.
Resolution I would like to see is to be able to continue with the purchase of this vehicle. Re- submit payment and pick car up or receive all monies back that I have put into this purchase.

Mr. *****
Our apologies for the delay of title processing. Unfortunately, there were processing updates within the state that were outside of our control. The management team at the Copart purchasing location has confirmed they have complied with the new state requirements as well as received confirmation that your title was processed on 2/7/2025. You should have received your title from the state. Additionally, the Copart purchasing location has credited the $20 title pickup fee as well as the $50 title processing fee due to the state delays. We appreciate your patience while resolving this result of unforeseen occurrence.
Copart respectfully request the BBB to close this complaint as all title processing has been completed as well as goodwill credits issued to our member for the delays.

After purchasing a car on 10/11/24, I had multiple issues with the vehicle like not being to access the vehicle (the doors would not open) & the car would not start. There were also issues with the car not going into park or reverse. I contacted Copart & talked ** ******* on the phone, & shared the issues. ** said it would best to have Copart collect the car & take it to the Copart location in **********, **. ** stated that Copart would buy back the car from me. I agreed to this & Copart picked up the vehicle on 11/14/2024. Despite our arrangements, a week after Copart picked up the vehicle, ** then stated they would not buy back the vehicle from me but instead would put the car back up for sale on my behalf, which I disagreed with. Nothing was put into writing by Copart to state that they would be collecting the vehicle and selling it on my behalf. Since recovering the vehicle from me, I have had little response from Copart. I tried to file a complaint w/ Coparts **************** by fax, but the number did not work. Coparts customer service refused to provide me w/ alternative contact information for Corporate. I then mailed the complaint through certified mail but have had no response. I also have sent the regional manager, ****** ********, 2 emails w/ the complaint & have had no response. I then disputed the transaction w/ my bank, which was found in their favor. In the 3 months since Copart have had the vehicle in their possession, they have not attempted to reach out to me. This ordeal has dragged on for 3 months. I have no vehicle & am out the money. Also note that as of 2/12/2025, Copart has the car for sale on their website w/ an auction date of 2/13/25. Copart has not made any arrangements w/ me to sell the vehicle, (no signed permission to sell on my behalf or agreement on seller reserve etc). Copart also does not have possession of the title. All of these factors make it illegal & unethical for Coparts to be selling the vehicle but not refunding me.Business Response

copart is a title company that my car insurance provider hired to get a duplicate title for my vehicle. they were supposed to just order a duplicate title. instead they mistakenly applied and was granted a salvage title change, knocking %20-%40 off the value of my vehicle. when I call they first told me "oh well just deal with it" after intently insisting they take responsibility they agreed they would fix the issue. that was June 2024. it's now February 2025 and i havent even gotten the salvage title. my registration is long expired because of this. I call periodically with no resolution and now they don't even take my calls anymore. I've emailed the regional manager and no response.Business Response

******* ***** is not a customer of ********************** and has not purchased anything from or through Copart.Copart's customer in this matter is **********************, who assigned Copart as part of our Title Express program to procure the necessary title documents for an insurance claim. If ******* ***** has any issues regarding the vehicle and/or title work, they should address them with ********************** who requested Copart procure the title work on their behalf. As this is not related to a marketplace issue, Copart respectfully requests the BBB close this complaint. Thank you. CopartCustomer Answer
