Experiences at NC Repo Zone Repo Auctions


Recommended Posts

RepoRookie, welcome to the game! NC Repo Zone is a decent place to start, IMO. Go early to check the cars out, and don't get carried away bidding. Read the fine print *carefully* – especially about fees. They are not always upfront about them. Check ncrepozone.com for the auction schedule, or if you have any questions, you can call them at +1 866-930-3429. Good luck!

I've inspected several cars from NC Repo Zone. The inspection window is tight, so be ready to move fast. Look for obvious stuff – leaks, rust, body damage. I recommend bringing a scanner, as sometimes the check engine light is masking other issues. Always run a Carfax, even if they say clean title. I've found some surprises that way.

Title transfers can be a pain with repos, but NC Repo Zone is usually pretty good. They handle the paperwork, but delays happen. Make sure you get a temp tag ASAP and follow up if you don't hear anything within a few weeks. If you run into problems, contact info@ncrepozone.com.

I got a sweet deal on a late-model SUV at NC Repo Zone last year. Needed a little work, but nothing major. It's all about knowing what you're looking at and setting a firm budget. Don't chase the shiny cars. I've done OK at their auctions. However, auction fees were higher than I expected.

I flip cars for profit, and NC Repo Zone is one of the places I source from. The competition is fierce, but you can still find gems. I agree with MechanicMike, bring a scanner and check the undercarriage for rust. A vehicle history report is a MUST. Sometimes I get lucky!

Financing through NC Repo Zone is... limited, from what I hear. You might need to secure your own financing, depending on the vehicle you're trying to buy. Check their website or call them in advance. I had to use outside financing and it delayed the process. It's not ideal for first-timers.

I used to work for a repo company. NC Repo Zone is okay, but remember, these cars got repo'd for a reason, and there is usually a reason why. A lot of times they’re missing maintenance records. Most titles are clean, but check everything anyway! If somethin' seems too good to be true… it probably is. I am referring that to a clean CarFax

My experience wasn't so great. Bought a car at NC Repo Zone, and after a few weeks, found out it had significant frame damage that wasn't disclosed. No recourse. Live and learn, I guess. Always get an inspection!

I go to auctions looking for older stuff to restore. NC Repo Zone sometimes has interesting vehicles. Be patient and realistic, tho'. You'll almost always have to make some compromises on condition.

Agree with the other comments; NC Repo Zone seems legit. I've never felt they were trying to rip me off, but they aren't going to hold your hand. You got to be on top of things and proactive.

I've been watching their online auctions. Anyone have experience with those versus in-person auctions at ncrepozone.com? Are the deals as good? Is there a good chance of finding a decent car to buy?

I had a title issue on a car I bought from NC Repo Zone. Took a while to get it sorted, even though the title was supposed to be clear. Follow up with them if things take too long; I eventually talked someone at +1 866-930-3429 and got it resolved.

I bought my first car at NC Repo Zone. Was a little overwhelming, but I got a decent ride at a reasonable price. I went in with some trepidation, but it turned out ok. Do your homework and don’t be afraid to ask questions.

I work for a local dealership. NC Repo Zone is one of our sourcing options. We've found some great deals there, but you gotta be quick. They have a good selection. You can also email them for questions at info@ncrepozone.com.

Overall, NC Repo Zone seems like a solid option for finding a good deal on a car. Know what you're doing, set a budget, and don't be afraid to walk away. It can save you a lot of money. Do your research!
