Nice - even if you "win" the auction, you still may not actually get the item(s) you bid on as there is a "subject to lein holder approval of high bid"

See other thread regarding this subject. Apparently not a true auction.

Yep! I offered $45k less than 3 months ago.. Below is copied in from my post in the other related thread.

I tried to buy those 525’s for well over a year. They got pulled from the original failed attempt of the PQ auction due to “ownership issues”… I’ve made contact several times since with my last offer being $45k. I didn’t need engines, just wanted a little more power in my 32’er. I was told they didn’t want to “fire sale” them and felt they were worth “list price”. I don’t agree with that since list price on 2007 or 2008 525’s is a different story than list price on new 2013 or 2014 525’s with warranty! Secondly, I’m sure PQ didn’t pay list, they paid manufacture’s price on the packages – not sure what that was in 2007 but I have a real good idea what it is today…

As more time passes, I would really struggle buying them sight unseen. If I was still in the market, I would plan on a good visual inspection including scoping the bores. Who knows the conditions of the storage facility??

I’m out of the market since I bought a boat w/525’s but I hope someone can get a good deal here.
