    Hi All,

    For those of you that are experienced with Barrett Jackson, I’m wondering what your experiences were. I have purchased four vehicles at their auctions and all four I have has some sort of issues, although fairly minor for 3 of them. You would think that they would do a much better job inspecting cars before they auction them off for the premiums they get.
    Seems to me there must be a better way....

    Thanks

    Are you kidding? There is no inspection of cars that go through a BJ (or Mecum) auction, other than a VIN and fire marshal inspection depending on the facility.

    You're paying for the auction, for the marketing, and for the experience. Caveat emptor.

    Respectfully, I would assume almost all vintage or collector cars have some sort of issues.

    Maybe more details would shed some light on the level of the complaints.
