I had a poor experience at the indy auction.Both the vets I bought have been in the shop since the auction.Issues were covered over with tape under the dash or out of site in other areas..Wont buy there again,obvously they dont examine the cars they sell.Anyone else?

AHHHH!!!!!.......I would say that they are no different than any other Auction house......."Buyer Beware".....If the auction houses had to validate every car that went thru and be liable for everything, there wouldn't be any around.........Like others have said here many times......."Do your homework before Bidding"

This is not a site to pile on people without stating facts. They are auctions where you have over 1000 cars. You cannot expect the auction to inspect under dashes etc. That is where pre inspection by the buyer or his agent should come in. If a car is grossly misrepresented by the auction house it should be brought to their attention. They ususlly address it.
