Brittany was a very nice lady to deal with won't take that away from her, their online policies are a joke though. Upon delivery of the vehicle we purchased on OVE through Manheim there was undisclosed damage that was not on the condition report. Was told we were past the 10 day window and they don't follow the manheim OVE policy for arbitration which is a longer period of time. Do yourself a favor and don't buy from this auction as they can hide damage then its on you. Wont buy anything else here from now on nor should anyone else who values a car being represented accurately.

When I purchased my vehicle on 2/25/2020, I noticed that the oil was leaking after purchasing the vehicle. I spoke with the dealership I bought it from who offered to take it to Carolina Auto Auction (where they purchased it from) to have the repairs done. Carolina Auto Auction had my car for 3 weeks doing these repairs that should have only taken 3 days at the most. The actual labor charge was only 18.4 hours. The same day I got my vehicle back, the check engine light came on for another problem and the oil was still leaking but now more than it was before. I contacted the dealership who said

Shadiest auction I've dealt with. You buy a vehicle online that is green light, when transporter delivers the vehicle with it having 3 miles more than the pictures stated on auction pictures, turbo has a loud noise with no boost and transmission shifting hard. Called arbitration, and they advised me that on online purchases I can only start arbitration on the same day as the vehicle was bought, regardless of green light or not. Wondering how that is possible? The reason why I buy online is because I'm not able to go there in person.

Worst Auction in the United States. We have been in business for over 38 years. The original Owner was one of the First customers at Carolina. They have the worst arbitration and mechanics by far. Everyone it's not who you are but we hope you know. They won't arbitrate anything sold to you by one of their big franchise dealers. I've been told s bad battery causes numerous check engine lights. On an 07Bmw 328. That leaking Valve cover gaskets cause engine lights on a 2011 Chevy Cruise. If you floorplan cars your screwed.
