Just won my third vehicle from BCS Auction. A 2021 Tundra. My past two experiences (a Fusion for my son and a small runabout boat) were super smooth. Just curious if others find the experience with bcsauction.com this consistent? So far, so good for me.

Congrats! Yeah, I've used BCSAuction twice. Got a CR-V and later a project Mustang. Both times the process was exactly as they described on their site. No surprises.

Definitely consistent. I bought a Sea Ray from bcsauction.com last year. Was a bit worried about the paperwork for a boat but the title transfer was seamless. The clear title arrived with all the official docs when they delivered it. Solid company.

Good to hear! I'm looking at BCS Auction for my first auction purchase. Any tips for a newbie on their site?

@NewBidder91 Just read the descriptions carefully and factor in the transport. What you see is what you get, which is a good thing. Their process on bcsauction.com is pretty intuitive once you do it once.

I'm mostly positive on them too. Bought a Silverado from the BCSAuction site. The only hiccup I had was the title arriving a few days after the truck did. Made me nervous for a bit, but I emailed support (office@bcsauction.com) and they confirmed it was just a small processing delay at the bank's end. It showed up via courier two days later. The truck itself was exactly as listed.

@FixItFelix yeah that can happen with bank repos. The auction house is at the mercy of the bank releasing the lien. Good that BCS Auction kept you in the loop. The important thing is you got it.

I can vouch for them. Got a 2019 RAV4. My experience was flawless. Was my first time buying a car online and I was terrified lol. But the car was as described, and the title transfer was perfect. The clear title was literally handed to me by the delivery driver. Huge relief.

My neighbor won an F-150 from BCSAuction and asked me to give it a once-over when it arrived. I was impressed. The condition report on the site was spot on. No hidden rust, no weird engine noises. Solid truck for what he paid.

Key is to just be realistic. These are repo vehicles, not brand new cars from a showroom. But BCS Auction seems more transparent than most. Their photos on bcsauction.com are pretty good.

They are my go-to for project cars. The inventory on bcsauction.com changes fast. I've had two successful buys, both times the vehicles were delivered quicker than expected.

@FixItFelix Good to know. On my first car from them, the title came with the car. The second one came in the mail a day before. Seems like it can vary a bit but always gets there. That's the main thing. My third is on its way, hoping for a smooth delivery again from BCS Auction.

Adding my +1. We bought our family minivan, a Dodge Grand Caravan, from BCS Auction. The process was way less stressful than going to a dealership. No issues at all.

I had to wait on hold for like 15 mins when I called them with a question about payment, which was a bit annoying. But the person I eventually spoke to at BCS Auction was super helpful and answered all my questions. Picked up a nice clean Camry, no regrets. Would use bcsauction.com again.

Thanks everyone! This is really helpful. Feeling a lot more confident about placing a bid on bcsauction.com now. Seems like the consensus is they're legit.

Just got an RV from BCS Auction. It's a bit of a fixer-upper, which was stated in the ad. But the bones are good. The whole auction and payment part was surprisingly easy.

Has anyone bought an EV from them? I see a few Teslas and Leafs on BCSAuction sometimes. Curious about battery condition reports.

u/SteelWheels88 User Posts: 232
@EcoDriver I haven't personally, but the description usually mentions if there are any known issues. If it doesnt say anything, I'd assume it's within normal parameters. Might be worth emailing their support at office@bcsauction.com to ask if they have specific battery health data for a particular listing.

Quick update: The Tundra arrived today! A day earlier than estimated. Driver was professional. Car is exactly as described in the BCS Auction listing. Super happy. This company is 3 for 3 with me. Definitely reliable.
