"What’s the reserve price?" - Asked by #56698087 11/21/2025 10:44 AM |
A: |
Because the reserve price serves a different purpose from the minimum bid, we won't be publishing the reserve. If the reserve is not met at close of auction, we may or may not choose to re-list the vehicle with a lower reserve.

Q: |
"What is the condition of the tires and the brakes?" - Asked by #594054 11/22/2025 01:41 PM |
A: |
The vehicle currently carries a valid State of Vermont safety inspection sticker valid through January 31, 2026. The vehicle is available for inspection at the Brandon Police Station, 301 Forest Dale Road, Brandon, VT 05733, during normal business hours. The Town will not attempt to classify "fair" or "good" or "very good" condition of any mechanical part. The tires and brakes are not "poor" or the vehicle would not have passed the safety inspection. They are not likely to be "excellent" given the vehicle's age and mileage.

Item Location This location is a general area based on the sellers zip code. It is not the specific address where the item is located.
Our Buyers Fees
With Municibid, pricing is clear, up-front and transparent. A buyer's fee (% of the winning bid amount) will be charged directly to the winning bidder upon the close of each auction via the credit card you entered prior to placing the bid. You pay the selling agency directly for the full cost of the item. (unless otherwise noted)
All Buyers fee's are aggregate unless otherwise noted. This means after you cross certain price thresholds you will pay a different buyers fee for the remaining amount. See below for an example.
Example:
If buyers fee is 8% for bids up to $99,999.99, 5% for bids $100,000 - $499,999.99, and 4% for bids over $500,000.
- Winning bid: $50,000: = Buyers fee: $4,000 (8% of $50,000).
- Winning bid: $150,000: = Buyers fee: $10,500 (8% of $100,000 = $8,000) + (5% of $50,000 = $2,500).
- Winning bid: $550,000: = Buyers fee: $30,000 (8% of $100,000 = $8,000) + 5% of $400,000 = $20,000) + (4% of $50,000 = $2,000).
Where can I see what the buyers fee is?
The current buyers fee will always be shown on the page of the listing under the current price in both the bid area and auction details area. You will also see the buyers fee amount you will pay for your entered bid on the page where you confirm your bid.
What if the selling agency rejects my bid?
If the government agency rejects your bid (they reserve the right to do so) your buyer's fee will be returned, in full, to you within 5 days of notification to Municibid of the rejected bid by the governing body.
