No live or through the lane bidding. Although you can still go to the auction and check out the cars on the lot. Wonder how it will affect sales and prices. Especially as dealers are expecting to stock up for the tax refund season.
Richie Brothers, one of the largest Heavy Equipment Auctioneers, is allowing bidding only remotely but is allowing onsite inspections. Here won't be the usual rapid bidders bunched up in each lane.
I'd guess between one quarter to one third of the cars over $5000 are already sold to online bidders before this happened. It's the cheaper under $3000 cars that might be going cheap if the sellers will sell.
