To Auction or not to Auction??? That is the question..

Greetings folks! Seeking advice on buying at car auctions. I'm looking at an 07 F150 Salvage FORD F150 for sale in CA - SAN DIEGO offer $10100 2007 year repairable vehicle | Copart Auto Auction Broker Lot # 8332380 looks good aside from the obvious scratches on the side which is really no biggie.. Any folks have any auction experience you'd like to share? All info. would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I've bought and sold many at auction over the years. I wouldn't consider buying unless I could see it in person. There is a reason it is salvage that might not be obvious. What you see is what you get so be careful.

I'm pretty sure this is SPAM. He's posted the same thing on at least 2 other boards.

Thanks Osbornk..

And Shotgunz.. What's wrong with trying to get as much info before actually making a purchase?

Nothing, as long as that's what you're really doing.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck...

I could be wrong (wouldn't be the first or last time). My nose is a little stuffy (getting over a cold).
