About catalog data
What the catalog contains
checkby.vin publishes vehicle records from Korean insurance auctions: VINs, photographs, specifications and descriptions. This is an informational catalog. We do not conduct auctions or sell vehicles.
Vehicle specifications
Listings contain photos, specifications and descriptions. Missing information is marked as not stated.
Production year and model year
Production year and model year are labeled separately. When production year is not stated, the catalog may display model year. Model year does not establish an exact production or first registration date.
Reading records
One VIN can appear in multiple auction records. These are separate listings, not an automatically consolidated full vehicle history report. A past auction date does not prove that a vehicle was sold.
Damage and mileage
Missing damage classification is not proof of no damage. Unknown mileage is not replaced with zero. An unverified mileage label means the source does not confirm the reading.
Limitations
Records can be incomplete or incorrect. The catalog does not replace inspection, document checks or professional assessment.
