Alright, I have probably posted this half a dozen times before, but here goes again:
If you read the fine print in their "auction terms" section and the section linked through the auction page itself, you will discover: Kruse is charging for parking, $10 to get into the auction, making you pay for a bidder number, if you wish to pay with cash you must hand them a $500 deposit before bidding even begins, charging a 10% buyers premium on vehicles and 15% on parts and literature, plus a 7% sales tax. When bidding, figure on adding 20%+ to your bid in order to cover the fees and taxes. Oh yeah and if you don't remove your purchases within 24 hours, they will nail you for handling and storage fees. Since the sale is 7 days long, this means you will have to remove your purchases as the auction is still commencing. Also remember that Nebraska in April will be a muddy mess, and hundreds of trucks, trailers, and people are not going to make it any faster or easier to remove items! I haven't been able to confirm this yet, but I have heard that if you buy a tractor or vehicle and need help loading they will also charge you a fee to make a loading appointment, and then charge you again for the actual loading itself.
Note: On the part about loading above, I just read Scotmac's response, so I guess that verifies this to be true.
