How many of you bought equipment out of state using online auctions? And did you buy it without looking at it in person?
I'm looking for a backhoe, and obviously, its not as easy as buying a truck or a car local. I can locate decent deals out of state, but I'm not comfortable forking over thousands without looking at it in person. I do drive to the local auctions in state. I already ran across some that had surprises and looked much better online than it did in person.
I'm a newbie looking for pointers. This might sound stupid but are there people that work on the side checking over equipment at auctions for people out of state?
