This place has pretty much turned into a used car lot with salesman approaching you before the sale. I have bought several cars here but only one turned out to be a good car. When I bought those cars I had the chance to pull them forward and backwards to make sure they sounded okay. Many times you don't find the problem until the car gets hot. This last time we noticed many of the cars seemed to have something added to the oil. Also, they said we absolutely couldn't move the car. They do drive them through but that doesn't tell you if reverse has a problem. Also, many of the cars have a ""dead battery"" which means you can't crank it, you can't check to see if the windows work, etc. Pretty convenient if you aske me. The last thing I'll say is that every time I've gone, they announce that you can't bid without a bidder number so I've gone in like a good little girl and paid my $25.00 non-refundable fee, yet invariably someone ALWAYS ends of buying a car yet they didn't have a number. So I lose my 25.00 if I don't buy anything and those folks who are not playing by the rules don't lose anything. As long as Summerville Auto Auction gets the bid they want, they'll sell it to you!
