About the Chiba Engine Auction

The Chiba engine auction is held almost every Wednesday at our Chiba yard. Many companies bring their engines to the auction, so it is normal to find a stock of 800+ engines available to bid on each week.

To participate you need a confirmed deposit and an account on our auction site:

  • Create your account at kra-auction.com
  • Ensure your deposit is on file before the auction day.

How It Works

The day before the auction you will receive the full list of engines that will appear. You can then request photos of any item you are interested in.

From the auction online site, you can enter your desired bid price for each engine. Please note: please consider your bid carefully before submitting. You are allowed to change your bid price as long as the auction time is still active, so choose carefully.

If you win a bid, the items will be immediately invoiced and the total amount deducted from your statement.

Pricing Structure

For every engine won at auction, the final price is calculated as follows:

Win Price + 10% Commission + 2,500 JPY Transport
Example
Engine won at 100,000 JPY → Final price = 112,500 JPY

Once a bid is successfully won, a cancellation fee of 30,000 JPY applies per item, as per the auction rules. Cancellations are accepted only if made before 23:59 JST on the day of the auction.
