Government Auctions – Samples of Great Cheap Cars Available
I have written several documents on government auctions and police auctions in the past, but only as of late have I been providing specific examples of the deals that can be found at these auctions. You may of heard of rumors of the great prices available at government auctions, however, seeing is believing, and since the government does not endorse the specific autos or items that are offered at the auctions, I am attempting to demonstrate some of the great deals you will find there. The police and government are overstocked with repossessed automobiles and therefore are eager to clear them out, and in turn this provides great opportunities to anyone who will make an effort to attend their auctions.
Imagine if places like Walmart or Target never advertised the types of “great bargains” that they offer. I’m sure most successful stores would never get anywhere near the sales they have had they never advertised sales on specific items. That’s a big part of their marketing strategy and is a main driver for getting the public into their stores. Despite not advertising, though, government auctions still have a decent following and they are very successful at selling repossessed cars and foreclosed homes. The reason for this is simple because they have the such great deals and the informed public are aware of this.
Having said that my goal is to make interested people aware of the deals that are currently available from any of the numerous government auction agencies. For research I generally use my number one rated government vehicle auctions site as evaluated on my review site highlighted in the last paragraph. By the time you read this the items listed may of expired, however, it will provide you with an example of what kind of deals are available, so when you’re in the market for the same type of item you’ll know where to look and what price range to expect. For this article I have found a number of cars (and a pickup truck) among the tens of thousands that are available. These are just a randomly selected micro sample of some of the fantastic deals that are available:
* Plymouth 2004 Neon Sport 31.1K miles $3,250
* Pontiac 2005 Bonneville 12K miles $3,330
* Subaru 2004 Impreza Outback 30.1K miles $3,810
* 2003 Jeep Liberty with 23K miles – $3,890
* 2005 Corvette with 13K miles – $4,600
So as you see the people that are attend the auctions are getting deals much better expected. There is usually a large variety of makes and models available to choose from. So how can they be sold so cheaply and where do they come from? Cars can be repossessed for a variety of reasons including unpaid debt and/or taxes, criminal involvement, etc. Chances are your car dealership is buying at least a portion of their vehicle inventory at a government auctions, and making a good margin on that purchase so here is your chance to cut out the middle-man and pocket your savings.
Going to a live on-site government auction rather then an online auction is a good idea because you will be given the opportunity to look over the vehicle before you bid on it. As I’ve mentioned in the past if you’re not mechanically inclined then bring someone to the auction who is. Also be careful to verify the quality and the history of the vehicle before you purchase. Given the fact that a small percentage of people are even aware that these auctions even exist, you’ll be able to find a vehicle of your choosing, perhaps even of higher social status then you intended for a much lower price then you expected.
