Auto Auctions - TIP: Don't get caught up in the frenzy of a bidding war and spend too much for a car. Just walk away, no matter how much you want the car. If you cannot get the car for a comfortable price below published value, then the auction was a complete waste of time for you. You'll lose sleep if you pay too much

- Make sure you have enough money in your bank account to cover your check. Many auctions may require a bank draft instead, so be prepared ahead of time.

- Before you go to the auction, like maybe right now, browse over to CARFAX, and sign up online to their 30 Day Unlimited CARFAX Vehicle History Reports account, you'll be running the VIN#'s of several cars.

- Make sure your contract clearly states whether the title indication light was red, green, or yellow. If your purchase turns out to be a red light title problem later on, yet they indicated green, you got them by the neck now.

- Get to the auction early to stock your prey! The earlier the better. Beat the crowds, avoid distractions and look for the cars you'll want. Make sure you have a Kelley Blue Book, NADA guide, or Edmunds book if you're going to a public auto auction. If you're going to a wholesale auto auction, bring a Black Book with you. If you have your PocketPC, just surf to the car pricing web sites from the auction.
