A Guide For First Time Buyers

1. Please inspect your intended purchases carefully as all vehicles are sold "as is" without warranty or guarantee unless otherwise stated.

2. It is common for most used vehicles to require some repairs to be fully operational and roadworthy. You should take this into consideration when bidding.

3. Make a note of the odometer reading on the vehicle itself, although we make every effort to make sure that the catalogue contains the correct distance traveled, it is ultimately the responsibility of the purchaser to know what he is purchasing.

4. The vehicles are available for inspection prior to sale so please come early to allow enough time for thorough viewing.

5. For safety reasons, no bidder will be allowed to start the motors of any of the vehicles. Our staff will be driving the vehicles into the auction building during the sale and you may hear them running at that time.

6. All vehicles are sold subject to the approval of the consignors. Therefore, the highest bid is not necessarily accepted.

7. To Bid, simply raise your bid card to the auctioneer or the closest floor man. If you are ever in doubt as to what level the bidding has risen, please ask one of the floor men before continuing to bid.

8. If you are the successful bidder on a vehicle your deposit of $200.00 cash will be required in the office immediately. There you will fill out a sales contract for the purchase of your vehicle.

9. Providing the Auction obtains ownerships from the consigners in a timely fashion, most ownerships for purchased vehicles are ready to be picked up after 3:30 P.M. Monday following sale day. PBR Auto Auction cannot guarantee every ownership the following Monday, but we do make every effort to have them ready for purchasers as quickly as possible. If you wish your ownership mailed, you may request this of any of the office staff before leaving the auction.

10. The auction is a fast, fun, and money-saving way to purchase good used vehicles, but please remember that for what you purchase you are expected to pay. As we are obligated to pay our consignors.

"Phone Bid" Sales

1. A "phone bid" is the highest bid on a vehicle that is recorded and held for the approval of an owner who is not in attendance at the time of sale.

2. If your bid is the highest bid on a given vehicle and the owner is not present, one of our staff will phone the owner and try to get approval of your bid, if the bid is approved by phone, the vehicle is considered sold to you as if sold on the auction block.

3. If the owner cannot be reached immediately, you may bid on another vehicle and if successful on the second vehicle, the "phone bid" will be cancelled at your request.
