Up for auction is a 1989 Regal 20’ Fishing Boat, STK#164432. This boat has been inspected by our mechanics and was not running. The boat needs a new battery and the starter is bad. The engine will turn by hand and there is power going to the ignition coil. The prop lift has power but the hydraulics are not working. There may be other mechanical issues that we are not aware of. The boat is in fair condition for its age. The interior could use some new upholstery and there is no driver’s seat. The exterior has some dents and scratches and there are some portions that appear to have been repaired with bondo. This would be a good project boat or shell for a custom fishing boat. The registration for the boat expires 12/09 and there are no back fees that we are aware of. The boat has a Ca Title. There is no visible VIN on the trailer so the trailer will come with a statement of facts. Having a VIN assigned to the trailer will be the buyer’s responsibility. The registration for the trailer expired 7/07 and there are back fees in the estimated amount of $198. The trailer has a Ca Title. Good luck bidding!!!

Q: Can I drive this car to Canada, New York, South America, etc.?
A: As with any vehicle we sell, we do not make any guarantees as to how it will perform or what distance you can drive it. These are donated vehicles and we have little to no history on them. They are often in need of regular maintenance that we do not perform. We strongly recommend you have your vehicle inspected and serviced by a mechanic before driving it any distance. Should you choose to drive this vehicle off our lot, you do so at your own risk. With that in mind, sometimes a Smog Certificate is a good indication of a vehicle’s running condition. We have had people make it as far as Alaska and we have had people break down a block away from our lot.

Q: Will you sell me a part off of one of the cars you are selling?
A: No. As stated in the auction description, we do not part out vehicles. We are not a wrecking yard. This is a donated vehicle, and once it is on eBay, the bidders expect the car to have all the parts it was pictured as having.

Q: I would like to talk to the previous owner. Can you give me his/her contact info?
A: No. All our donor information is strictly confidential.

Q: What is the buy it now price?
A: On the rare occasion that we do a “Buy It Now” then the price will be in the auction. If there is no “Buy It Now” price then the vehicle will sell for the high bid amount. Please do not offer or inquire about doing business outside of eBay. This is strictly against eBay Guidelines and anyone inquiring about such business will be reported to eBay.

Q: If I win this auction will you guys help with shipping if I pay you?
A: No. We do not assist with shipping in any manner. This is covered in the item description as well.

Q: If I win this item can you guys pick me up from the airport?
A: No. We do not provide any transportation services.

Q: Where is Santa Paula, CA?
A: http://maps.google.com This is a great tool that will not only show you our location on a map but it will give you driving directions as well.

Q: Will you call me? I would like to talk to someone about a vehicle you have for sale.
A: No. Due to the high volume of emails and listings we do, we do not have the staff support to speak to customers regarding items for sale. We also document all questions regarding vehicles for reference purposes. All questions must be asked using the “Ask Seller a Question” button at the top of this page.

Q: I am interested in a vehicle you have for sale but I cannot pick it up for another month or so. Is this okay?
A: No, this is not okay. We apologize for any inconvenience but we cannot commit to storing vehicles for extended periods of time. We do not have the storage capacity to do so. Payment and pick-up terms must be adhered to. If you are coming from out of state, arrangements can be made within reason. Please contact us if this is the case.

Q: I see that some of your vehicles require to be towed away on a flatbed. Can I use a tow dolly instead?
A: No you cannot. In the event that we require a vehicle to be towed away on a flatbed then it must leave on a flatbed. No exceptions.
