I have written many publications 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 values available at government auctions, however, seeing is believing, and since the government does not endorse the specific cars or items that are offered at the auctions, I am attempting to illustrate some of the great deals you will find there. The police and government are overstocked with repossessed cars 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.

Can you imagine if Best Buy said they had some great deals but never really publicized what they were, they probably won't get half the business that they do. Well in the case with government auctions they still have quite a following with virtually no promotion (mostly word of mouth) and the reason for that is simple, they have the best deals, period. Think about it, no cost paid for the goods sold and they want to move that merchandise out of their inventory as fast as possible. Compare that to a retailer who has a cost associated with each item and needs to make a certain margin on each sale.

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 Grand Am GT 13.1K miles $5,140

* Lexus 2005 RX300 4x4 13.5K miles $6,450

* Ford 2004 Expedition XLT 4D 25.2K miles $3,180

* Toyota 2005 Corolla LE 12.2K miles $6,350

From what I could see most every make and models was available to choose from. But where do they all these vehicles come from and why are they sold so cheap? They are repossessed vehicles that come from numerous sources. They have been repossessed for many reasons including unpaid debt, neglected taxes, and other legal reasons.

It's a good idea to go to a live auction rather than an online one because you'll have more time and better opportunity to evaluate the vehicles. You will be able to see all of them up close before choosing which one(s) to bid on. You should also bring along a car expert with you, if you're not one yourself just to to assured that the vehicle is in good condition before buying one. Try to find out both the history and quality of the car(s) you're interested in. Remember, while government auctions are popular, the general public isn't aware of them, and therefore there will be many choices for you do get that car that until now was out of your budget.
