If a car has been repossessed for one reason or another, or if a vehicle that is a bit older in make or model has not been claimed or purchased, it might very well be put up for sale at salvage auctions. This has nothing to do with bad quality of the cars; you can actually get a decent car for a nice price at such an auction. However, there are a few things you’ll need to be aware of when you’re shopping at a salvage auction and below I will give you some tips that hopefully will help.

I Enjoy To Purchase Vehicles at Salvage Auctions from Terry Carters on Vimeo.

You will most likely be viewing salvaged cars at a public automobile auction, which means there is a good possibility many others will be bidding on the same auto that you want. You will probably have some ‘competition’, so it is mandatory that you determine your budget before going to the auction. This way, you will be very clear about what your limits are before you start the bidding process. A main reason for this is, at a salvage auction you will have to pay additional fees after you win the bid on the car. For car buyers the fee can be around 10 percent of the total price of the automobile.

Another very important thing to remember is making sure that you’re able to see the title of the car before you take it off the lot and drive it home. The only chance you have to get out of a deal you are not comfortable with at salvage auctions is if the title is fraudulent, and if you don’t have the proper title you wouldn’t know what type of allowances you have either.

Used Car Auctions are Something for Me from Terry Carters on Vimeo.

One of the best types of used car auctions to attend is one that sells seized vehicles. Thousands of seized cars are recovered each year in most states and these auction cars are often in great condition. Some of the vehicles at the auction are only a few years old and many are even brand new models.

Some vehicles also go into the surplus inventory of banks and the government if the previous owner(s) is not able to afford to keep the vehicle. So, when you attend the used car auction, be sure to look at the condition of the vehicles and pay attention to the year, make and model of the vehicle. You should also search sites like carfax.com in order to get detailed reports for the types of vehicles you may be interested in.

You should also try to bring a cellular device with a connection to the internet to the auction with you so that you can pull up information about the vehicle before you place your bid. Keep in mind the cost of the vehicles at the used vehicle auction are lower for a number of reasons. One of the main reasons is that it will cost banks and the government lots of money to store the vehicles, so selling the vehicles is ideal.

Some of the vehicles sold at a used vehicle auction are not in the best condition, which is why you’ll need to make sure that you buy a warranty that will protect you from the cost of major repairs and damages. At some auctions you are able to buy a 30-day guarantee before driving the vehicle off the lot. A lot of people have purchased vehicles from auctions, and have had to take them to the repair shop days after the auction to replace a broken tail pipe, fix the transmission or do other repairs.

It’s recommended that you perform a thorough inspection of the vehicle while you are still at the auction site; used automobiles most likely have a number of miles on them, which cause inevitable wear and tear on them.

Are you searching for a ‘new’ vehicle at a price you know you can afford? If your answer is ‘yes’ why not attend the next seized car auction in your area? Repossessed or seized cars are normally sold at government auctions.

These auctions are sponsored by the local police department or sheriff office and the auction cars are sold for a fraction of the original price. Here as elsewhere in life you normally do get what you pay for. Below are a few tips for finding the car you want for the right price.

If you want to know when a government or police car auction will be going on in your area, you can visit usa.gov. This site will refer you to directories containing schedules for auctions sponsored by the Department of Defense, the U.S. Marshals Service and the Department of Energy. Other seized car auction events that you may be interested to participate in will also include autos that are from state or local surplus.

The storage costs for the state and the banks that finance the vehicles are several millions of dollars, so you can be sure that cars you purchase from these auctions will be much more affordable that other places, for example from a dealership. We have seen several cases where cars go for 80 to 95 percent off the retail price!

Some special rules apply to auctions, even if a seized car is not in bad condition. If the vehicle you purchase at an auction are sold “as is”, the auctioneer or any organization selling the car is not liable for damages or repairs once you win the bid and drive the vehicle off the auction site.
Because of this rule you will have to purchase a guarantee that will protect you if anything goes wrong with your auction car

You’ll also need to purchase a warranty for the car so that if repairs are needed, they will not be terribly expensive. You should also remember to never, ever walk away from the auction site without getting the title to the car. You will not be able to legally register the car and receive a license plate, which could present some serious legal problems for you in the future if you plan on getting the car on the road.
