Living in Dallas, TX, I am right in the middle of auto auction mania. I am always amazed at how quickly the cars pass through the auto auction and are shipped to wherever their destination is. Many times, when people trade in a vehicle, the dealership doesn't keep that particular car on their lots. They often times will sell that vehicle to an auto auction to be resold to other dealerships or individuals. In fact, an auto auction is where a great deal of used car dealerships get their inventory from.
There are different kinds of Texas car auctions that you can try. The one I did worked over the internet. It was actually a pretty simple system. The way that it worked was that, after signing up for an account, I was hooked up to Texas car auctions all over. I could bid on cars, see all of the relevant information about them, and even pick out custom features like sunroofs and power steering. By the time I had picked it up from the warehouse, I had saved something like 3,000 dollars over the price that I would have paid to buy the same car locally. All in all, not too bad a deal, if you are willing to wait for a few months.
Of course, the more common form of car auctions deal with all sorts of cars. You can go to police auctions, sales by the IRS, or even by private financial corporations. The way it works is that cars, seized from people who were either convicted of a crime, fell behind on some sort of payment schedule, are resold by the government or private financial industries. You can get cars at these sales for a fraction of the price of the kind of car auctions I was talking about, but of course there is a trade off. Because they are cars that have been seized, you do not get to find out anything about the state of the car, or what damage might have been done to it before the sale.
The majority of the vehicles that I see on a daily basis that are at the Texas auto auction, are incredibly modern cars. There might be rows of the exact same model and color of a particular vehicle but at least I know what cars are in demand. The auto auction has an excellent reputation because of their picky nature. They don't purchase vehicles just for the sake of it. They purchase vehicles that are worthwhile and popular. If I were a dealer, I'd be filling my lots with vehicles from the auto auction - no doubt about it.
