Never been to the one in Perryopolis but I have been to auto auctions before. Check and see if you can look at the cars before the auction stars and get there as early as you can. If you are looking for a deal buy early. A lot of people will be gun-shy about spending money in the beginning of the auction.

Even if you had access to the regular option it is extremely hard to purchase a vehicle at auction that doesn’t need a lot of work. Most cars bought at auction are sold for a loss by the dealer in hope to acquiring a trade or making money w financing and warranty. If you have cash stick to Facebook and Craigslist. However I see people listing their cars for above what dealers sell them on Craigslist.
