Sf97 wait times?

I won the vehicle 5/29/24 and the euc cleared 8/8/24. I am still just waiting for the sf97. What are the time frames you have seen for sf97 to arrive?

.
GovPlanet starts the request for the SF97 as soon as the vehicle is confirmed picked up. The paperwork needs to be routed from the service branch (USMC in my case) to GovPlanet, then processed and transferred to the buyer (you) on a separate sheet of paper. Mine (and I was a first time buyer, not sure if that makes a difference) took just under 6 weeks to be sent out and I received it two days later in certified mail.

I have read of 4 to 6 months on this site before, but don't recall specifics...

Best of luck, and have fun with the truck.

Thank you. I called around a month ago and they said they are just waiting on the usmc.

Mine took about a month. Mine was an Airforce truck tho

Bought on Oct. 30, scanned and uploaded all needed document and received my SF97 on Nov 22. It was an Army issue M1097. Thought it was fast due to my resource before buying looked like time frame was two to four months.

Funny, were both in Wisconsin too lol

First purchase is always longer. I won't give you my horror story but call govplanet frequently and stay on top of them.

They sent my sf97 and approximately 300 other people's to one guys house in Florida. Can't make this sh*t up. Thankfully he was honest and sent them all back to govplanet and kept his own. Govplanet finally got it sorted and sent everyone's out correctly later. All in it was approx 9 months for me to get my first but factor COVID shutdown in there.

Yes - call them. They are helpful and what they tell you isn’t always true, but eventually they get it done. My first one sat because the year model from the auction didn’t match their sf97, and it was sitting on someone’s desk waiting for them to do something about it. Eventually (like 6 months) they sent it to me wrong and I had to figure it out.

I've purchased 2 HMMWV's from Gov Planet and wound up calling for updates on both, twice. Don't bother emailing as they don't respond. Always give them a call. The phone rep's were always helpful and considerate as long as you aren't a d**k.

I had one that took well over 6mo, I finally had an attorney with military connections send them a letter, they managed to find it withing a couple weeks.

Finally got it today on 2/13/25

Did you do anything different? I called them last week and got the same response I've gotten in email from them "Still waiting for an update from the DLA"
