I purchased a rolls royce and a amg sl Mercedes benz when the cars were delivered oil was leaking and the Rolls-Royce had a serious back fire the Mercedes benz had every light on in the dash it looked like a Christmas tree...i told both vehicles to the shop immediately the rolls royce needed a 20000 repair and the Mercedes benz 6800 i called mecum and explained the situation to them they came up with a lame ass excuse and haven't paid anything to get these cars repaired so i have to pay to get them out the shop 26800 on top of the 105000 plus mecums commission for 2 vehicles that i don't have at this moment i will never purchase any more vehicles from the mecum auction buyers beware they don't inspect these car's before they sale them for very large amounts of money.....that's not right....

Lots of fake reviews on here talking about how long theyve been attending. I have attended and both times have been the worst experiences of my auctioneer life.

I rate Mecum a ZERO out of 10. After registering 2 collector cars months in advance and speaking with representatives about paying a premium for a good auction on a Friday afternoon our lot numbers were pushed to F317 and F328 at the Glendale auction. We did not hit the auction block until 8PM when the room was almost empty. While we got a few bids up to $35k these vehicles should have well exceeded our reserve of $55k and $65k respectively. The auctioneer knew the room was empty and barely even tried to get bids before they went to the bid goes on. To say we are disappointed is an understatement. Trying to run 350 cars across the block on a Friday Mecum should have know this would take until late into the evening and known that the room would be empty. After spending over $2000 and a lot of wasted time I am reluctant to bring any of our other collector vehicles through Mecum. This auction was a disgrace to the Mecum name and certainly not representative of the clientele that reside in Arizona.

Was at the Mecum auction in KansasCity and purchased a vehicle unfortunately when we got home and had it inspected to be licensed to drive it pulled up as stolen. Several months later we still can’t enjoy the vehicle we purchased and neither the DMV or Mecum is fixing the situation. After spending that kind of money to get the vehicle bought home and fixed up to drive we still cannot legally drive it down the road without a title and plates. Would be nice to not get the run around from the gals in the office.

Mecum auction is just a big scam from beginning to end. They have a policy to take every dollar they can from buyer to sellers to even the food vendors and staff. Even if you’re you just come to look at cars they ad extra hidden fees on entry. Made up fees to just get in. Money hungry company that is greedy. If you have a car to auction take anywhere but Mecum!! I promise it will not end well for you.

I bought a 1952 Ford pickup from the auction on 12/5 in Kansas City. I bought it on-line. As soon as I got the bill of sale and title from Mecum, (about 3 weeks after the purchase). I took it to the VIN inspection folks in my county. They told me my 1st mistake is buying a vehicle from Mecum. The 2nd issue was, the truck had been modified and part of the frame had been replaced, (no valid VIN to pass inspection). My only option is to apply for a "quiet title" in Kansas, with attorney fees between $3,000 -$5,000 for them to do the paperwork. Definetly will not buy from Mecum again!!!!

Had bid a car up for auction, won the bid and then they immediately continued the bidding right after! Whats up with that???? What a dishonest company!

What a joke. I hauled my 1948 Diamond T Truck 480 miles to the Fort Worth Auction. When it was time to cross the auction block they decided to sell by video. Said it was to big. Hum I drove it inside the Dickies parking garage. If you are not a Big Boy consigner or buyer you are meaningless to them. Never again will I consider Mecum Auction
