Why lot payments are direct and final

1It shuts down chargeback fraud.

Card and PayPal payments can be reversed for months after a sale. On a lot worth tens of thousands of dollars, that's an open door — pay, take the goods, then reverse the payment and keep both. A direct, settled payment closes that door, so honest buyers never carry the cost of the few who aren't.

2All sales are final.

Liquidation lots are sold as-is, by the lot. A payment built around months-long reversals doesn't fit a final sale. A direct payment settles with certainty for both sides — you know the lot is yours, and the seller knows the sale is done.

3Nothing sensitive to breach.

Because lots aren't run through a card, there's no card number stored anywhere on our systems and nothing for anyone to steal. Your financial details stay with your bank.

4It's how bulk trades.

Wire and ACH move large orders cleanly, with no per-transaction caps, holds, or reversals. Direct bank payment is the standard in wholesale for a reason — it's fast, final, and built for the amounts real lots run.

How a lot order works: Place your order, and we email you the exact payment instructions and your reference number. Pay by any lot method above, include your reference, and the seller confirms and releases your lot the moment payment lands.
