An exciting night at the Elkhart Car Auction. It’s quite fun to see all these cars go so cheap. There are dealers there who buy them for their lots (and then mark them up) and there are also Joe Publics(like me) who just want to find a cheap car. I din’t get anything last night, but it was still pretty cool to see how it all works.
Don’t buy anything your first night. You are auction green – and the feeling of “oh my gosh it is only $300 for a ’91 Taurus” will overtake you – even if you hate ’91 Tauruses.
So I am sure I will go back and see if I can find anything next Monday.
The phrase: “and the feeling of “oh my gosh it is only $300 for a ’91 Taurus” will overtake you – even if you hate ’91 Tauruses.” made me laugh out loud. I wanna go sometime, it just sounds like it’d be fun.
Find me one. Just no Fords, please. 🙂 I’m counting on you.
…and this is also the reason KC got her truck for cheap. the dealer bought it from an auction and it was the end of the month and he was trying to meet his goal, so he sold it to me for the price he bought it from the auction. lucky me he hadnt met his goal yet.
