Hi NB

I have seen auctions on a couple of occasions in Makro car park.  It seems to happen a few months after the rice harvest when Somchia can't keep up the payments on his new wheels. The repo companies are then trying to unload the repossessed vehicles.

Could be some low mileage bargains..but short of asking Makro of future dates I would not know how to find out more info. confused3

Hi nookie

Not surprised really!  I suspect they just charge a fee to the auction company for the use of part of their carpark for the day, so Makro would not have any input in the event itself.

Afraid its just a matter of keeping ones ear to the ground!

Good luck
