Could you build this?
Partial The calculator interface is trivial, but keeping up with dynamic, proprietary auction fee structures (Copart/IAAI) and 50 distinct state DMV title and salvage compliance regulations requires ongoing domain-specific data curation.
What it would actually take: The stack would be a Next.js web application, but the core asset is a continuously maintained relational database of tiered buyer fee schedules across multiple salvage auctions, freight rate tables, and US state-by-state title brand/tax/registration laws. Maintaining accuracy requires manual regulatory tracking or direct salvage auction industry insider data.
