Connecticut State Center Wiki: The Real Scoop On Connecticut Auto Auction Guides

The Real Scoop On Guides To Connecticut Auto Auctions

Despite claims to the contrary, the Connecticut auto auction guides these companies sell don't contain specific information about dates and locations of auto auctions or lists of available cars. Rather, they contain general information about Connecticut car auctions and addresses and phone numbers - all of which are available in your Connecticut phone book. You will still need to call for details about upcoming auctions.

And, despite what you might hear about auction guides or see in the ads, cars at auction typically sell for their fair market value. These auctions attract a variety of buyers, including used car dealers, so the bidding can get competitive. At many government sales, the items are appraised before the sale and won't be sold if the bidding runs too low. Indeed, it's rare to find high-end or late model vehicles for sale, especially at "bargain basement" prices. And the truth be told, the cars that sell for $500 or less usually are damaged or junk vehicles purchased for scrap.
