The goal of this digest is to help you avoid common mistakes when buying at auctions and assist you in purchasing a GREAT DEAL on a car at the best possible price!
Expectation vs Reality
I went to the auction to check out a 2016 Porsche Macan Trubo that had been stolen and then recovered. It looked great in the online photos, but not as good in reality. Check out the video to see what to expect when buying online.

Question: WHAT ARE YOUR FEES AS BROKER?, HOW THE PAYMENT WORKS IF I WIN A CAR, CAN I BID MYSELF OR YOU DO THE BIDDING?
Answer: Our fee is $349 or 5% whichever is greater. If you win a car you have 2 days to pay for it via bank wire or Zelle. Yes, you can bid yourself via our LIVE bidding site. You can find details here (https://livebidding.cars4.bid), you will need Zelle deposit though.
