Have you been to or participated in an ATV Auction?

Outside of ebay, have you ever been to an ATV auction? Sometimes there are towns, cities, counties, and states that auction off their atvs, stolen, recovered, repos and other atvs, utvs, side by sides. There are also online auctions all over the place. Just looking to see if anyone has gotten a good deal on something or has an auction they frequent.

I have.  It’s an auction for motorcycles, dirt bikes and ATVs.  It was a Police auction. Pretty cool but you can’t touch, only look so you have no clue about the engine.  I picked up a kx 250 one time that was in excellent condition for $400 bucks.   As soon as I got my hands on it I found out the engine was completely destroyed Inside. 😢never the less I managed to get the new engine for another $600 and it worked great but I have to say it was fun to be at the auction.

didnt know they existed...  that would really put me off not being able to handle the atv I was looking at buying, but I totally understand why they do that--  some jerks just want to screw up stuff and then leave without undoing whatever they did..

Here are some of the ones I was looking at online:

What made me think about it was I was driving out on Long Island and went by this DPW town garage. They had a fenced in area with about 20-30 atvs. I'm assuming they were impounds.
