And I also find dont bid early on, let it get going, two or three will generally go at it for a bit, the more people bidding generally means you pay a higher price, so wait right until the very end. And be careful the auctioneer doesnt sneak in another couple of $100 at the end.I got a '97 mazda astina a while back from one in brissy, and we got it for $7700, had 180k's on it, wrote it off in a flood on the coast a couple of years ago, and it was valued at $14,500. (not on purpose mind you - just lucky) insurance offered me $8000 to start with, and I told them to get stuffed, then they came back with around 12k, then I told them to shove that too, and they got to $13,500 and said that was all they were prepared to pay, if I wanted more I had to get an independant valuation, so I went stuff you and got one, which came in at $14500 exactly, cost me $200 for the val, but well worth it.Good tip though if you ever do write your vehicle off, dont EVER take their first offer!!! argue like hell with them.
