What clients say about Central Auto Auction in Hamden Township (CT)
Connecticut just doesn't have enough cars for public auction in fact I've brought vehicles from fleet gov in Florida and they had well over 100 vehicles for auction.
They’re scammers!!!! I Bought them 3 vehicle in the last 2 weeks and guess what , all broken with serious problems, they really need to renovate their team because whoever is in charge of the action is only allowing trash (sorry for that word) but seriously don’t spend your money in this place, go to other place..
I lost 10k in those vehicles :/
One more time don’t go there.
It's good. There aren't that many cars that run, and I don't know if we're just unlucky here, but I can't find too many good cars. It's definitely more like Copart in the sense that they have more parts cars than clean trade ins. Do come for a quick and convenient registration often though, for a reasonable price.
Purchased 3 green light cars. two out of three came not running. One had a major oil leak turned out to be transmission vehicle wouldn’t go forward and backward. Second alternator was not working, car wouldn’t run off the transportation truck. The oil leak issue was mentioned the second day we received it than on the way to the mechanic after 9 days due to July 4th I was told it’s too late by a gentlemen who didn’t seem to care for anyone trying to do future business. Also was told alternator was not arbitrary item only engine and transmission issues. Apprantely not that as well. Make sure you understand green light doesn’t actually mean green light. every auction makes their own green light rules. Other than that if you want to purchase inexpensive vehicles that don’t run, it’s a great place. Buy them cheap enough than you can fix them and break even if lucky.
Very wide selection of cars. Some real gems to be found - we recently purchased a BMW X5 with very minor repairs needed, and beautiful Cadillac in great condition. As with any auction you need to do your homework. They now offer DealShield.
recycle a vehicle today the people in the office were very helpful My overall experience was really cool and yes I would go back again thank you Danielle
To all ove buyers plz AVOIDDDDDD this auction at all cost trust me you don't want to go thru what I did. So I bought a Nissan GT-R for 50k ordered psi first of all I took them like 3 days to get it done. Then they called and said it passed. Recived the car bartary was died so put a new battery and drove it home scan it for Inspuction and sure it was tranny codes called the auction and they are rude and will do anything to even help. Plz save yourself a heache and buy from a Manheim location so you have the right to Arb if there's a prob that's a private auction has nothing to do with Manheim rules I'll never buy from them agine
Ok auction, you really get to check out the cars well in advance. The problem is two fold, one the auctioneer is the worst one I've ever heard so I;m lost pretty much 90% of the time. Second with friends letting friends letting friends use the dealer license the prices vary wildly. I've seen carss with a certain ethnic look go easily $1000-$1500 over what it's worth. Then you'll see a car you were only mildly interested in go for a steal of $1000+ under what it's worth and you go damn I should have bought it.
Overall, good cars, confusing,hectic, prices vary wildly.
Central Auto Auction appears when i was young and just started my business, with help of them I grew day by day, I would recommend this auction to all businesses and also will add the Repokar as one of the greatest car auction, this auction is new and progressive one. Good luck! and thank you!
