We’re sorry for the frustration with the pricing you’ve seen online. We aim to keep our listings accurate and up to date, but prices and availability can change quickly across platforms. If you’d like, feel free to reach out, and we can go over any specific vehicles with you directly and help clarify details.
If “shady” required a definition, Peter from Elite Auto Auction and Terry the seller from Auto Pro Sales and Service would be a fitting example. You declined to provide the requested videos because you’re aware the vehicle has significant engine and transmission issues. Instead, you’ve chosen to route it through auction as a blind “as-is” sale, effectively transferring those problems to the next buyer rather than accepting a straightforward cash offer. Initially, you indicated a willingness to provide engine footage and even FaceTime, then reversed course and refused both, along with any direct sale outside the auction. Additionally, you failed to disclose prior rear-end damage and substandard repairs, along with the existing mechanical issues. I definitely had that phone call recorded for my own records and the other reviews validates my thoughts of you. Refusing a legitimate cash transaction while withholding material information strongly suggests an attempt to maximize return on a defective asset at the expense of transparency. You also hung up on me and wouldn't take my phone calls anymore when I found out you and the shady seller does business very often together. Elite is a con game and so is the seller on a lemon vehicle. BEWARE ANYONE DOING BUSINESS WITH EITHER ONE. #BeVigilant #BeMindful

We’re not able to identify you from this review, but we take feedback seriously. We also want to be clear that we always aim to operate transparently and within proper auction processes, where vehicles are sold as-is and disclosed based on available information. We don’t control or alter vehicle condition history, and all buyers are encouraged to inspect and review listings thoroughly before bidding. We’re sorry you feel frustrated with your experience, but we stand by the integrity of our process and our team. If you’d like to discuss a specific transaction, you’re welcome to reach out directly with the vehicle details so we can look into it further.
These guys are good guys they will work with you, they actually found two vehicles for me. They even recommended a good repair shop and transport company. I have purchased 3 vehicles from them without issue all of my documents and titles were sent via fed ex. I would be careful when bidding on vehicles, look at them closely make sure they are not another dealer trying to pass them through Elite. I would focus on only insurance company vehicles if you want to restore and repair. They have plenty of used vehicles with some minor scratches and clean titles. My favorite to work with is John thanks again for everything.

Elite Auto Auctions helped me score a 2020 Ford Mustang at a great price. The listing was accurate, exactly as listed. Clean and powerful. Perfect for anyone looking for a reliable daily car.

I recently purchased a 2019 Honda Civic from Elite Auto Auctions and couldn’t be happier. The entire process was smooth, transparent, and stress-free. The car arrived exactly as described and drives like new. Highly recommend!

Thank you for your kind words, Rhys! Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we look forward to assisting you again in the future. Safe driving!
To be clear they are middle men. They supposedly have relationships with brokers at the auctions but that is debatable. Their game is basically get your money, they won't acquire the car, and then wait you out. They will keep a cancellation fee when you finally have enough. They are middle men who make money off the cancellation fees knowing they have a 1% chance of getting the car even if its on their "buy now" listings. DO NOT SEND THEM YOUR MONEY.

We take all feedback seriously; however, this review contains inaccurate and misleading statements about how our platform operates. Elite Auto Auctions is an online auction platform that provides customers access to dealer-only inventory through a network of licensed vehicle brokers. This is a standard and fully compliant structure within the automotive auction industry. We do not operate as described in this review. Customer deposits are applied toward vehicle purchases, and all terms — including fees, availability, and refund policies — are clearly disclosed upfront before any transaction takes place. Not to mention the fees and refund policies are posted on the site. Vehicles listed as “Buy Now” or available through auction are sourced from third-party marketplaces, where availability can change in real time. Our team actively works to secure vehicles and communicates transparently with customers throughout the process. We categorically reject the claim that our business model is based on cancellation fees. Our goal is to successfully help customers purchase vehicles, and the majority of our clients complete transactions without issue. If this reviewer is a verified customer, we encourage them to contact our compliance department directly so we can review their case and resolve any concerns.
Transparent and professional. Descriptions are accurate, fees are clearly explained, and communication is excellent. Elite is definitely a solid choice.

Thank you Angelique. We appreciate your business and value the relationship.
Never do business with these people. They are not good people to work with and will scam you out of your money. I had to get an attorney before getting some of my money back, even though I proved how wrong they was

We take feedback seriously; however, we are unable to verify this reviewer as a customer in our system based on the information provided, including the names referenced. Elite Auto Auctions is an online platform that provides access to dealer-only inventory through a network of licensed vehicle brokers. All customer transactions, deposits, and terms are clearly documented and agreed to in writing prior to any purchase. We strongly dispute the claims made in this review. We have no record of a transaction, dispute, or attorney involvement matching this description. If this individual has legitimately conducted business with us, we encourage them to contact our compliance department directly with their full name and transaction details so we can investigate and resolve the matter promptly. We are committed to transparency and customer satisfaction, and we stand behind our process and track record.
Elite Auto Auctions knows what they’re doing. They explained the title, damage, and auction process clearly before I committed. Car arrived on time and matched the listing.
