power merchants auction

[teamdirt]

There is one guy who has high bids in almost 10 different machines. WTF

My guess is an insider of the auction company, insurance company or of Power Merchants inflating the unreserved bids to get max bottom line as per all auctions. Buyer be-ware. FYI-They don’t give brand new sleds/ boats/ trailers away for less then there cost.

They are very good at adding fees to everything that they do. They make you pay to open a bidding account. Then both the seller and the buyer pay fees on each transaction. If you want to pay with a credit card add another 2-3%. I’m not sure if they add a fee if you e-transfer money but I’m sure they will. Contact them immediately after the auction for your bill or they will automatically charge the item to your credit card with the service charge added to it. Please be aware of this before you bid. In the end your good deal may not be as good as it looked.

If there is no buyer’s cap just remember that 15% on $10k is an extra $1500.

Bump for the above...mcdougall's main shop is a few miles down the road from me and I buy some stuff here and there. Don't forget there's likely sales tax on these. Other items I've bought have had both taxes applied as well. Unsure if PST would apply to you guys in AB. Between fees, taxes etc, I've had to add between 17 and 22% to the total in the past. With Mcdougall's you really need to make sure you are getting a smoking deal to cover the over and above.

Same as all auctions

I don’t know what it is with some of these auctions but people get this buyers frenzy and end up overpaying!!

 

[Dragonalain]

macdougal auctions also charge the seller 10-15%. I refuse to by anything from them.

Who is buying the tarps?

 

[Kibbels]

My brother and I were bidding on 2 sleds & 1000 turbo SxS but getting to high now... oh well!

 

[johnny cash]

I don't see any deals either,, prices are high then add tax, fuel if you have to drive there and all other bs involved, best to get from your local dealer, maybe no warranty with this being a fire incident would be good to check with BRP before buying a sled.

I went to register, it wants your Drivers License, and birthdate, credit card info, address, etc, etc. That's a bit much info to give out online to who knows what. And I was just going to bid on ...0531 belts. Not worth it.

Jeesh some of the prices these guys are paying for sleds is interesting.

Looks like the barret Jackson of the power sports world.

 

[skegpro]

Is it to late to consign sleds?
