So does GovPlanet send an email when the euc clears or do I have to check the website every day?

Thanks. It’s been a few weeks. I just wasn’t sure if I should be obsessively checking lol. I read a post of a guy who didn’t know for a few days that his had cleared which I thought was odd.

They do them on Tuesdays. If its your first....its gonna take 8-12 weeks, no way around it.
Missing it a day or so isn't a big deal because once you get the notice you have to arrange pickup. There are only certain days that the lots are open for pickups. If you are getting a SF97 you will have another month wait once you get the approval. Nothing happens quickly!

True, but that does not necessarily mean a longer wait. The M1123 I purchased in June cleared in 2.5 weeks.

My first EUC took 10 weeks. It was worth the wait. Now for the SF97......

You can monitor this thread, PHasty is a GovPlanet rep and will give updates each week on where they are with EUC's.

In my case an "EUC cleared" email was not sent, I happened to stumble across a notification nearly hidden on my account page. I complained but nothing really changed. As mentioned, pickup is the hard part anyway. The policy about having to remove the item promptly is about common vehicles, military vehicles take weeks or months to manage to get to, in my case, because of the policies at the DLA yards and such.
Patience is a good thing to have when dealing with these. It will come.

Unless, of course, your local GP rep is a rock star. Mine was. The guy in Indianapolis is very laid back, friendly, and while he's firm on what days he's going to be available, he was happy to make arrangements outside of his schedule for a professional carrier to come by and make a pickup. I just met with him during his scheduled time to comb over everything on the vehicle and sign my documents. Guys like him make things easy and enjoyable.

What do you mean by “comb over the vehicle?”

Once my EUC cleared, I inspected the vehicle to ensure that no parts had gone missing since the auction listing and there were no unexpected damages. Normally most people would do this at the same time they were actually taking it off the lot, but myself and my carrier weren't available at the same time, so I came by early in the day and my carrier was then able to pick it up later that day and get it taken home. Not all GP lots are going to allow this kind of thing, and I technically signed away liability of GP as if I had already removed it from their lot, so it's not the most protected way to do business, either.
