Is "Reported at Auction" a bad thing?

I WOULD AVOID, TO MANY AUCTIONS IN A SHORT PERIOD OFTIME ANDPRICE IS WAY TO LOWFORTHIS TYPE OF CAR, SAVE YOUR PENNIES AND BUY SOMETHING ELSE,IF ITS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE THEN SOMETHING IS WRONG....GOOD LUCK

It's not a kiss of death, it was repossessed and went to the auction house, like Manheim or Adesa which often hold dealer-only repo auctions. Probably had to high a reserve on it so didn't sell at first, although you have no history on vehicle so it might have had other reasons it remained at the auto auction so long. You'll need the carfax or motor vehicle history to know it's exact change of ownership and mileage at each transfer. Because it is such a crap shoot on buying a car with this type of history (or lack of) that is why its value is so much lower than a one-owner well-documented vehicle.

Auto auctions are no big deal if they appear on a car check, but if there is a repo on there I would not buy it. Do as suggested and spend a few bucks and run a Carfax on it. Also sometimes "googling" the vin number can come up with additional information.
