Looking to buy a car for cheap. Found some auto auctions online, like government repossesion, seizures, etc… All of the cars are super cheap. Are these auctions fraud? Anybody bought one of these vehicles?

Has anyone used a government auction site like this: http://www.gov-auctions.org/ They need a membership fee and I want to know if it’s worth it. They claim to get you into auctions to buy cars for half their regular value. I thought an auto dealers license was needed to enter auto auctions.

On yahoo this morning a featured video was $352 million worth of cocaine found in a semi-submersible vessel. They then went on to say that the company that found that has seized $2.2 Billion in the past, now I know the government auctions off seized homes and cars and the like, but what do they do with these drugs? They obviously can’t sell them to people, are they used for medicinal research? Are they burned in places where people won’t inhale them?

I have heard that these auctions can sell home furnishings e.t.c for very cheap. Please any info very appreciated.
Thanks

same as tax auctions? okay so if u go to a govt and im sure theres alot of serious buyers..and I heard mostly the houses or autos etc. are not in good shape….but if ur gonna invest wouldnt this be a better way to go than buying regular property off the bat? from what I heard you have to pay the remaining mortgage so how about if u payed someone to NOT pay there mortgage so that u could re sell it and then SPLIT profits??? so in the end u can possibly make more money …would that work or is it more to it buying government auction stuff???

I have been looking at the website http://www.govliquidation.com/ and was wondering if anyone has bought from Uncle Sam and can I get stuff as cheap as the auctions appear to be. Case in point, 24 foot pontoon boat for less than $2,000. Would you reccomend it and what are some of the benefits and pitfalls?
