Oooh, and they have the "Iron Clad Assurance" too, and only $10,000 opening bid for something you likely can't license and you might not be able to drive at all. What a deal.

Thanks, I'll stay with my Pinz...

It'll be interesting to see how well they sell.

The devil is probably in the details. We had to hunt for them.

If you carefully examine the conditions of the sale, you have to pay extra for a Bill of Sale, plus you have to sign a federal document (EUC DLA Form-1822) stating that you will not operate the Humvee on-road and assume all liability for whatever happens to the truck "down the road". That means, if you do put it on the road, or someone else gets ahold of the truck and does something bad, then you are responsible.

This item is offered for Off-Road Use Only.
Buyer will be required to sign a Hold Harmless Agreement.
No title will be available. Bill of sale available at request of buyer (fee may apply).
Buyer is required to submit an End-Use Certificate (EUC) to be reviewed prior to removal of the item.
Security requirements and restrictions may apply at the time of pickup. See shipping terms for details
Specific terms & conditions apply. See details

In addition, IronPlanet will charge a document preparation fee of $100 for each Florida state certificate of title or duplicate state certificate of title. IronPlanet will determine whether your state requires a state certificate of title or a SF97.

Buyers who have not submitted an acceptable EUC (DLA Form-1822) within 12 business days will have their winning bids voided and liquidated damages assessed equal to the greater of 25% of the winning bid or thirty dollars ($30).

Sort of makes it not worth the trouble at any price.

Are any 1990 or earlier?
Some states (like mine) will take a bill of sale ONLY for vehicles over 25 years.. and issue you reg/plates. Title not required.

Taking that registration doc to another state has them issue a title.
That's why almost every title broker uses the Vermont DMV to process the paperwork.

I'm not advocating the work-around, but I'm sure it will be utilized.

Hi Mike,

You're correct that some states do not issue titles on older vehicles, and it remains to be seen how many of these will actually get a license. I'd lay money that somebody will try, at least.

But. The documents you're required to sign, prior to Gov Planet releasing the vehicle to you, make it a federal matter. If and When somebody gets caught cheating at this, they likely face some pretty serious consequences.

Let's face it, people try to cheat the system every day. Many get away with it, and many get caught. I just read this morning about a Mini that was seized by Customs and crushed. Wrong VIN, engine and steering wheel on the wrong side. It's surprisingly common.
