So, you've decided to attend a car auction with intentions of driving off in a car that costs you hundreds and even thousands less than it's retail value. By now you've probably heard about the different types of auto auctions you can attend, such as government, police, public and car dealer auctions. But did you know that out of these the best deals are to be found at a car dealers auction?
The biggest myth most people are lead to believe is that you have to be a dealer to attend. The truth is that although these auctions are only open to car dealers, you can often accompany one by going as one of the representatives.
You will then be able to view all of the vehicles as you would at a regular car auction. The only catch is that the dealer is the only one that can bid on the car and has to pay for it in his/her name. So, the pink slip will be in their name until they transfer the title.
The good thing about attending these auctions is that the prices are significantly below what you would pay at a regular one. But be careful because they also have more salvage title cars floating around. But most dealers that attend these auctions have a special device that gives an indication of the vehicle being in an accident. It is placed on a major part of the car such as the hood or door to measure the thickness of paint in that area. Anything over a certain amount is an indication of previous body work. Thus indicating an accident, which you don't want to bid on.
So, become friendly with you neighborhood car dealer, see if they use this special device when attending auctions and ask if you can go to the next one with them. Then you'll be well on your way towards getting a great car at an excellent price.
