Attended INDY for the past several years. Great cars, a fun week, and the staff is wonderful! Junior is exceptionally great! Every morning we see him first thing walking in and are greeted with a smile and everything we need to stay informed for the day! It’s always a fun week and we hope to attend for years to come.

Attended the Houston '26 auction. I had never been to one before but had seen them on TV. I have a couple of dream cars that are on my bucket list. This was just a scouting trip to learn the ins and outs, so I only bought a general admission ticket. Didn't matter that I wasn't a bidder, everyone was super nice and always helpful. I strongly suggest any new comers take the 'newbie' tour. Shout out to Marsha and Mel. I'm so impressed with their level of customer service I may even apply for a job.

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.

Heather- We understand how frustrating this situation has been and appreciate your patience while we work through it. As we have discussed, there is no record of theft associated with this VIN in the NMVTIS database, which is the national system used by state agencies and dealers to identify theft or title issues. Because there was no theft record in the national database, there was no indication of any issue prior to your titling attempt. After the Nebraska DMV indicated the vehicle was associated with a theft record in New Jersey, we contacted law enforcement in New Jersey, and they confirmed that their system does not show any theft history for this VIN. At this point, it appears the issue is the result of an incorrect record within a DMV system, and we are actively working with the appropriate fraud department to have that error corrected. We will continue working with the appropriate agencies until this matter is resolved. Mecum Auctions

Awesome auction and amazing people

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.

we have been attending the Mecum Kissimmee Auction this week as we have done for several of the previous years since moving here 12 years ago. Usually we have had several pleasant experiences dealing with the mecum representatives during that time. This time we interacted with a real gem JUNIOR. I have never had a better experience with a real customer oriented person. Anything we asked he was really happy to help us with. We needed to locate some cars available to bid and he was a whiz with the computer in locating them and directing us to the location. And all with a smile and happy demeanor. He truly seemed happy to assist us. I wish all our interactions were as easy and pleasurable as the ones we had with him. You have a good one there mecum try not to lose him. We will be looking for him next time.

I just left the 2026 Mecum auction on Saturday and enjoyed my visit there with the exception of parking! I'm always a bidder and since all attendees were grouped together in the parking lots, it was very bad since my wife and I have walking issues and you would think that a $ 200 bidders pass would get you better parking. Didn't buy a car while there but am very interested in cars that will be auctioned this week. I am a member of the Cadillac-LaSalle Club.
