colinneil Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 There is an auction place just south of Khonkaen, on the left side of mitrapap road. They auction cars,trucks, tractors, amongst other things, but i am not sure about motorbikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Maybe just talk to some regular bike dealers and tell them what you want. Or ask at bank. (where repos go?) Low-milage repos = +. What is the attraction of an auction? Especially risky for the naive farang. Bad idea IpHO. ...fun to watch. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad idea IpHO. ...fun to watch. ;-) I do not trust car dealers, bike dealers or real estate, rather take the risk and save the money Thank you, have always done well in auction, low milage couple of scratches maybe repossession But you need to know the new prices before you start and be clinical and walk if it gets too hot Last time 6 mths old 30% saved, but that auction in Kolat has shut Yes bank repo ideal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al007 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 We bought, one year old Honda Wave 8,000kms at Union Auction BKK, saved 40% on new one, cost 1000 to have it shipped to KhonKaen, and was there the following afternoon We were in BKK in any case and it will fit the bill at very reasonable cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
