I no longer recommend ABetterBid. Their shipping department is so slow that you will be charged storage fees while you wait for them to get someone to pick up your car. Instead. Go to AutoBidMaster.com.

ABetter.Bid is an online broker that will handle the bidding on Copart or IAAI for you (for a fee of course). Some vehicles being auctioned online require a license to buy. This is where ABetter.Bid is useful since they can bid on any car.
