From October 1st to October 4th, 2024, port workers in the Eastern US and the Gulf of Mexico went on strike, completely halting shipping operations during this period. This disruption posed a significant challenge for logistics companies.

In response to the situation, and in order to continue the vehicle purchasing process from American auctions without interruption, we have implemented the following measures:

We added over 10 new warehouse spaces to accommodate purchased vehicles.
We redirected shipments to operational ports.

To support these adjustments, minimize risks, and maintain operations as smoothly as possible, transportation fees were temporarily increased. These fees were adjusted immediately after the strike and have since been restored to pre-strike levels.

Additionally, for cars purchased at the higher rate during the critical period (October 1–4, 2024), we have recalculated the costs and refunded the difference to all customers affected by the strike period.

We take our responsibility to manage processes effectively during crises seriously. Therefore, we are committed to minimizing the impact of such disruptions on our customers, ensuring that any interruptions affect them as little as possible.

The cost of cars purchased during the strike of port workers in the US will return to the pre-strike level
