Vehicle Sourcing Agreement

By accepting the vehicle sourcing services of Import Ninjas LLC, you agree to be bound by and accept these terms and conditions whether you have read them or not.

Privately sourced, dealer lot cars, and or cars from auction are not in the possession of Import Ninjas LLC. The assessment of the auction cars and writing of the auction sheets is done by the staff employed by the auction houses and has no direct connection to Import Ninjas LLC. Import Ninjas LLC can have an additional inspection of each auction vehicle completed by a professional third party vehicle inspector at the customer’s request for an additional fee, but do not offer any warrantee or guarantee of vehicle condition, and the buyer purchases at his or her own risk.

A subscription and deposit are required to secure the services of Import Ninjas LLC. An initial deposit of 1 million yen covers up to a 3 million yen bid to win 1 vehicle. If the intended bid amount is over 3 million yen, then the deposit must cover the amount over 3 million yen.

Deposits are held in a US bank account in USD. Transactions are only approved when one the following conditions are met: 1) Vehicle is won at auction and deposit is used to pay initial invoice. 2) Bidding on a vehicle over 3 million yen and deposit needs to be sent to cover bidding, only additional funds over 3 million will be sent. 3) request for deposit refund from client. If a customer requests a refund of the deposit before the successful purchase of a vehicle, deposit will be returned in full, less the cost of bank and inspection fees.

The customer’s max bid is based on the information available at the time the bid is made, and is ultimately the decision of the customer to proceed with said bid. If the customer chooses to withdraw their bid for any reason, Import Ninjas LLC staff will make every effort to do so. In the case that the bid deadline has passed and the bid cannot be withdrawn, the customer will be responsible for payment in full when the bid is successful.

Should the customer choose to have a vehicle re-entered into auction after a successful win, a cancellation fee of 40,000 yen will be charged to cover the cost of time and labor involved with re-entry, in addition to all other additional costs (inland transport, auction fees, storage fees etc.). When a profit is made on the resale at auction then that amount will be shared between the customer and Import Ninjas.

The customer is responsible for any and all additional inland transportation costs due to but not limited to: auction house location not listed in estimate, vehicle being non drivable or not being able to load, vehicle repairs due to break down or inoperability during transport, custom and or singular transport, other carriers being used due to availability, size and or ground clearance of vehicle, outlying auction houses dealers and private locations, and availability of ships to the destination country from the nearest port.

The full value of the proforma Invoice must be paid to the account on the bottom of the invoice within two business days of receiving it. The customer is also responsible for any difference due to fluctuation in the exchange rate when payment arrives at our bank more than five banking days from the date the proforma invoice was sent. If payment does not come through within the five banking days a $25 penalty will be charged daily until the payment is received. After 30 days, if payment is not received if full the customer’s deposit is forfeited and the vehicle becomes the property of Import Ninjas LLC

It is the sole responsibility of the customer to research and remain in compliance with all regulations and restrictions connected with importing the vehicle into the country specified by the customer prior to bidding. Import Ninjas LLC will not be responsible for carrying out any of this research or taking any measures necessary to ensure this compliance. Furthermore, Import Ninjas LLC does not warrant the accuracy of any information on the importninjas.com website, or any written or verbal advice that might otherwise be given to the customer in-regard to the nature of any import regulations and restrictions.

Import Ninjas LLC cannot be held liable for anything beyond its control. This includes but is not limited to: errors or damage caused by auction houses, transporters, shipping companies and shipping agents; shipping availability and schedules; any costs incurred by the buyer (duty, taxes, etc); mechanical and or electrical failure; corrosion; non delivery of parts from Japan side supplier post payment; failure of buyer to receive posted items in their country and the costs involved in resending those items; missing parts and inner cargo; exchange rates, force majeure (war, strikes, and floods,) etc..

The customer should be aware that the vehicles usually require a thorough cleaning, and that “consumable” items such as brake pads, tires, oil and the like, may require replacing upon arrival at the country of import. Also, the customer is strongly urged to take reasonable care when starting the vehicle upon arrival, since cold starting after a long period of inactivity can result in severe damage to the engine, and other parts of the vehicle.

Import Ninjas LLC and the customer undertake to make reasonable efforts to resolve any disputes arising in their relationship following the provisions of these terms and conditions. In the event that the issues in question are not covered by these terms and conditions, Import Ninjas LLC and the customer agree to make every effort to resolve the dispute through mutual negotiation in good faith. In the event that reasonable attempts at negotiation fail and one or both parties decide to take recourse to legal action, this legal action will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Miami-Dade for the resolution of any disputes.

If any part of these terms and conditions that is not fundamental is found to be illegal or unenforceable, such findings will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of these terms and conditions.

Import Ninjas LLC reserves the right to modify these terms and conditions at any time without notice.
