      Trucking Charge for the Equipment from Consigner's Yard to JEN-Designated Forwarder’s Yard for exportation must be indicated. (Consult our Sales Staff.).
      Consigner is responsible for keeping the subject equipment appropriately until the equipment is transferred.
      Settlement for the sold equipment is made at the time of or after the transfer according to the Settlement Rules.
    • (b) When Entry Yard is Consigner’s Own Yard and Delivery Yard is one of JEN’s Designated Delivery Yards (See Web):
      Within one week after the successful sale in the Auction, Consigner is required to carry the subject equipment into the Designated Delivery Yard at his/her own expense. After confirmation of the Carry-in, settlement for the sold equipment is made according to the Settlement Rules.
    • (c) When both Entry Yard and Delivery Yard are JEN’s Designated Delivery Yard:
      Inspection of the subject equipment is made by JEN. Consigner is responsible for the Inspection Fee.
      Until the equipment is successfully sold, the ownership remains under the name of Consigner. At the time of the successful sale, consigner is required to transfer the title to JEN without delay. After the change of the title, settlement for the subject equipment is made according to the Settlement Rules.

    JEN faxes an account statement indicating the balance after deducting the designated costs (Entry fee, Commission, Repair Work Charge, charge for attaching/detaching attachments, Inspection Fee in place of Consigner, Trucking Charge, etc.) from the Sale Price (highest bid price) of the equipment.

  • (2)

    Consigner confirms the contents of the account statement and fills in the Consigner’s name and puts his/her seal and sends it back to JEN’s office by Fax. This serves as Consigner’s Invoice to JEN.

Consigner is required to send such compensation to JEN within five working days.
