Almost all auto auctions require a dealers license as far as I'm aware. Its too much risk for the auctions to want to hassle with the end level consumer. No test drive, sometimes not even starting the car, etc...

MEA Auctions. But they aren't selling cream of the crop there. DWI seizures that have less value than the storage fees so you can only imagine what kind are there.

There are Manheim branches in Statesville and Kenly. You might be able to convince a dealer to take you.

My sister-n-law said she had two former co-workers who purchased from a public auto auction in Greensboro, and said they got good deals. Unfortunately she does not have their contact info so she cannot ask them. I was trying to find out information on the Greensboro city data forum but didn't have much luck other than someone doing a google search for me to find Ray's (which I had already found on my own). This was the only one I could find.
