Used Car Auction
Why you should avoid them!

Used car auction is a phrase that sparks excitement and intrest in people, but for the average peron buying a car at auction is a big mistake.

When it comes to used vehicle auctions there are several types that are used in the auto industry but for the most part you have to think of them as business models.

The most popular business models are:

* Licensed Dealer Auction
* Public Auction
* Government Auction
* Retail Sales Dealer Auction

These auctions cater to two different types of buyers, the wholsale buyer and the retail buyer. You want to buy at wholsale price but have the reasurrance of the retail buyer.

Let me explain, the wholseale buyer makes a purchase and has to accept any and all problems that arrise from his purchase but the retail buyer has the benefit of consumer protection on his side. Generally that is why the wholsale buyer gets a better price.

Also when you go to buy a car you should not be rushed or pressured as if this is a great deal and it won't last. If it is a great deal today it will be an even better deal tomorrow.

There is a saying that goes "When a man with money meets a man with experience the man with the money ends up with the experience and the man with experience ends up with the money". So take your time, if you want to buy from an auction you should first understand how they work and know about the vehicle you plan to buy very well along with prices.
