There are so many people that do searches on online auction sites and then place random bids on whatever car they see first without even checking when the auction ends, that I’m not surprised so many end up buying cars they don’t need. Online car auctions are like any other auctions, and when you place a bid in them you are indeed legally bonded to go ahead with the purchase. The custom buyer agreement you are agreeing to before joining an auction site is a legal contract as good as any other in the eyes of the law. This agreement that is too often regarded as another quick mouse click is in fact a legal contract that specified all laws you might be violating in case you don’t go ahead with the purchase. So maybe, once in a while , it would be a good idea to actually read what we agree to do before clicking NEXT.
Important things to evaluate in online auctions: – The fact that you buy what you see in pictures, without really seeing the car for real. Of course, they are followed by a detailed description, phone numbers, an address and so on. If you are interested in a Chrysler LeBaron for example, then you should search official technical details like horse power and engine torque, then compare the date to the ones offered by the seller. If you happen to live in the car’s vicinity, then you can go and see it in person. But when we are talking about cars that are in a totally different country or state, things get complicated. Especially because these are the cars that can constitute real deals. The problem can be attenuated by calling the owner and discussing over phone all details related to the car and its problems.
- The fact that people place bids without asking details first. Don’t act like saints now, I’m sure you did it at least once but got lucky and someone else overbid you. We all think that there’ll be another bidder for sure. This is a childish belief, because every bid should be done with self-awareness, because it can be the winning one.
- Cars that lack information and/or owner phone number. All these areas are potential risks and should be regardless like that regardless of selling price. The good news is that you can track the car with the help of specialized services that will tell you everything there is to know, for a fee.
- Fake bids that are automated and only intend to raise prices. It’s true, you are not mad, there is someone out there that bids exactly when you are prepared to give up, making you increase the bid a little more. Don’t be tempted, these bids are usually made by the owners friends and family, and they are only trying to increase the car value and trick you into overpaying.
- Car location and transportation. If the car is in China and you live in America, driving for tens of thousands of miles just to take it home can prove very costly, so do appreciate the shipping or transportation costs properly before placing a bid on a cheap car.
