Title: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: Loven It on September 12, 2006, 11:49:49 AM I saw this on one of the ads on her. Take a look at it. I had no idea they had atv's at car auctions. See how low some of these have sold for!

;) Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: Thrumud on September 12, 2006, 12:11:17 PM I heard about it. There is only one problem ... You CAN NOT test ride. Buy "AS IS" !
Personally, I wouldn't trust buying from them. The chance of you buying an ATV that needs major repairs are high. With the cost of labor on these things, in my opinion it's not worth the risk, unless you know how to repair them. Good luck Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: Thrumud on September 12, 2006, 12:12:21 PM what they do is they biat yeah with the low sales so you pay the membership fee. ;) I agree with ya ! Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: 2ndtime04gt on September 12, 2006, 12:14:25 PM Its a sales gimmick to get you to join this club. Good luck finding anything near where you are. It tells you how to find these "secret" auctions. When you do find these auctions, rarely do any of the items sell for that cheap.
Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: ScooterB on September 12, 2006, 12:49:52 PM if it looks too good to be true
it probably is Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: Loven It on September 12, 2006, 12:57:32 PM Now don't get me wrong here..I agree with y'all this is probably not what it seems to be. I just wanted to see what others thought of it.
However keep in mind not all of these auctions are scams. I know people that buy a lot of nice vechicles from police impound auctions-seized cars that had drugs in them. I do beleive there are some instances where and ATV gets repo'd for non payment and yes they will sell them for the amount left on the loan. Not to mention that bikes do get impounded in other states for illegal riding and if you can't afford to get it back it will go to auction too. Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: jujulo700R on September 12, 2006, 01:01:52 PM Man those prices are WAY too low and anyone that signs up would never see anything in those price ranges. Police auctions are legit but even then you really can't get it for dirt cheap because they usually don't start the bidding dirt cheap. Not worth it.
Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: X-DreamChick on September 12, 2006, 02:20:32 PM You have to go and check out your counties surplus store, they usually have some pretty good deals on ATV's, check the web site below for Palm Beach COunty and look at the last auction results. At least that one is legit.

Title: Re: Seized ATV's - Pretty Interesting Post by: UncleRico on September 13, 2006, 01:45:11 PM "BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE...WITH EACH PURCHASE OF AN ATV YOU GET THIS AMAZING CUTTING TOOL, THE PAIRING KNIFE, THE JUICER, AND IT ALL COMES WITH A LIFETIME WARRANTY"
Please, this is just another example of unscrupulous marketing practices where they treat the consumers that reply to the advertisement like the suckers they are. "WANT TO MAKE UP TO $5000.00 A MONTH FROM YOUR OWN HOME IN YOUR SPARE TIME?" "WOULD YOU LIKE TO LOSE "UP TO" 40 POUNDS A MONTH WITHOUT EXCERCISE OR DIETING? CALL NOW, OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY! The sad thing is, people actually fall for this stuff! |
