Women in Car Auctions
Where Do You Live?
Women usually don’t like to go to live car auctions because they feel uncomfortable there. Some seller still live in medieval times, and think that women will never buy a car, not only because they don’t have the money, but also because they don’t need it. Some women found a perfect solution for buying car from live auctions: they bring their husband along, tell him what to bid on and how much and he acts then like he is deciding.
Women that totally dislike the slick and newly found Don Juan types give up on going to live auctions and resume to online auctions. In online auctions, it makes no difference if you are a man, a woman or a very intelligent any thing else. The other buyers can not see you, you are safely at home behind the computer screen and can bid freely.
Those who say women don’t know what they want are very wrong. If they are interested in used crossfires, then they will not be moved by other great deals. Maybe this is one of the reasons they are regarded as naïve in live car auctions, because they will only be bidding on one car, the one they had in mind from the beginning, and maybe sometimes even overpay for it. But they are aware of what they are doing, only that they really want it and don’t intend to go home without it. Some car salesmen try to either charm or intimidate women at live auctions. Other men that are bidders get annoyed when they are bidding against a woman. This is why, for women, online auctions are the real deal. Woman buyers are not as easily persuaded by a low price as men. Women want quality and they won’t give up the search until they find something they find fit. If you want a search done properly, ask a woman. Most women successfully make a car purchase in online auctions, even getting good prices for certain cars. The only moment in witch women are advantaged at live auctions is when they are sellers themselves, because they will benefit form extra attention from buyers and that means free car advertising.
