WELCOME TO EDMUNDS AUTOS PURCHASE PROTECTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With 84,654 processed transactions and more than 8,000 executed each year, Edmunds Autos is one of the most popular sale programs in the world.
How does it work?
1. The Buyer and the Seller agree on the transaction terms and the selling price. The Seller contacts Edmunds Autos and provides the transaction details.
2. Edmunds Autos accepts the transaction and offers purchase protection to the Buyer (if the transaction is declined, no further action is required from the Buyer or the Seller).
3. The Buyer receives an invoice and submits the payment to Edmunds Autos. After the payment is received and approved by Edmunds Autos, the Seller will initiate the delivery. The Seller has 2 business days to start the shipping and confirm it to Edmunds Autos. We verify the shipment. If something is wrong, the refunding procedure is immediately initiated.
4. The Buyer receives the merchandise and has three(3) business days to inspect it. If the merchandise corresponds to the description, the Buyer should accept the vehicle. If Buyer refuses the vehicle, he must ship it back to the Seller by the end of the 3rd day of inspection.
5. After the inspection period is over (three business days), the Buyer shall inform Edmunds Autos about the result of the inspection. If the Buyer refuses the merchandise, the refunding procedure shall be initiated immediately after the returned shipment is verified.
If merchandise is accepted by the Buyer ,Edmunds Autos will close the transaction and payment will be forwarded to the Seller .
