    Hello,

    i was about to buy prius c 2015 when i checked the auction sheet, there was no grade mentioned at all, that field was left blank,

    there are no damag codes except few lines on the bumper (i think it means bumper was damaged).

    some people say we should not buy such cars, should we? why there is no grade mentioned, also some of the boxes are crossed

    Auctions are a gamble always. I worked at dealerships for 30 years, we auctioned cars that we just could not put on the used car lot. Usually they needed too much work or would just not be profitable and dependable.

    i would say auctions are for experienced buyers, but i have no experience.

    I am not saying that you can't find a deal at an auction, but I will say it takes a lot of knowledge to keep from buying someone else's nightmare. Usually, they don't let you check the car out thoroughly, just a look at it from the auction block, no guarantees and little information on the history of the vehicle.
