Most people don't realize that seized property, government surplus, and unclaimed or abandoned property includes cars, trucks, houses, jewelry, electronics, furniture, office equipment as well as Government tax sales, unclaimed baggage, unclaimed freight, Federal unclaimed property, and hundreds of other items sold at Government Auctions, Police Auctions and Tax Lien/Tax Deed Sales for substantially lower prices than you can get anywhere else! This is merchandise that is seized by US Customs, IRS, DEA, FBI, and police, as well as unclaimed property that is auctioned from abandoned storage facilities, seized homes & businesses, and court evidence.

What's important for seized property, government surplus, and abandoned property? The most important criteria in selecting one of these sites are 1) Legitimacy; are the sites providing these links legitimate? 2) Listings; How large and current is their database of IRS, DEA, US Customs, FBI, and police seized and surplus auctions? and 3) Contact Information; do these sites give you the information you need to register at the auction, contact the seller, etc. Our top recommendation in this category is GovernmentAuctions.org.

Reviewed: GovernmentAuctions.org       Rating: 10 of 10

bank foreclosures and preforeclosures Hands-down, Government Auctions had the best listings to fine abandoned, seized, and surplus property and merchandise, and tax sales. Finding any item on GovernmentAuctions.org has just gotten a whole lot easier as they have recently added a new search that can find any item you are looking from any online and live auction being held across US and Canada. Examples of items to expect range from various vehicle types, to office and farm equipment, to electronics and jewelry, just to name a few. The government does not want to store these items and makes it available for pennies on the dollar. 

Legitimacy - Just looking at their home page we see they've been featured on CNBC, CBS News, Barrons, and others. There was even a video posted of their CNBC feature. We watched the video - it was NOT a commercial. The company CEO was interviewed on a business show as an expert on buying real estate at auction.


Listings - More seized, surplus and abandoned property than we were able to sort through all with a new search engine to find any auction item anywhere in North America (nobody else is tapped into all the auctions like these guys) ! Afterall, you're trying to make or save money, you want the largest number of choices.

Contact info - Too many of the auction sites don't provide contact info; again, these guys get it right. Almost every listing has direct contact info: name address, phone number, etc.

Bonus - With purchase using any link on this page they are also providing a voucher worth more $400 for a 3 day stay in one of any 60 Resorts in the US, Mexico and Hawaii (not a time share promotion or anything like that), and a free 'Save Money on Gas Report'. We grabbed ours and had a great Resort mini-vacation. This alone paid for our membership many times over.

PRICE: FREE GovernmentAuctions.org Limited Time Membership

Even if you cancel your membership, and pay nothing, keep the $400 Resort Voucher, Save Gas Report and these included Bonuses worth over $100.



Government Auctions did not engage in any of the shady or questionable practices we've seen on many of the sites. No automatic re-billing, and no "hidden" charges.

Reviewed: Auctions Pass       Rating: 9 of 10

Auctions PassListings - Though not quite as many as Government Auctions, we counted many thousands of listings in all the important areas.
Auctions Pass is one of the very few sites that also scored high in all areas. The only reason they did not get a full 10 rating is that they focus on is that they didn't have all the extra "value-add" information that made Government Auctions such a great site - otherwise we are very comfortable with the recommendation

Legitimacy - AuctionsPass is one of the few other sites that has been around a long time. The site provides all they say it does.

Contact info - Good contact info on most listings

Bonus - AuctionsPass is giving away a very well-written ebook that describes the bidding secrets to get the best items at the best price. We found it to be very informative, especially if you are new to buying at government auctions.

Price: $39.50 Lifetime Membership. Click here for a Auctions Pass 43% discount (regularly $69.50)
