Wow, auctions are flakey! I mean I already knew this, but usually an old eco-car with 200k ish KMs (160k miles) will sell for scrap, or close to scrap prices around here at the auction. But every once in a while, you see a perfect example of "there's a sucker born every minute". 1997 Civic DX hatch, black with a spray painted hood, and a somewhat intact interior. It had, get this, 489k KMs (303k miles). It brought $700, plus auction fees and taxes. That's $952 out the door! I would have gotten a pic but it was a black car and it was dark when I saw it. I need to find out if the buyer has a large family, because have I ever got some deals for them! ha ha
