Question 1

Was $3,950 a good price for this 2016 BUICK ENCORE?

Accepted Answer

112 comparable 2016 BUICK ENCORE listings sold at auction for a median of $4,000, spanning $3,150 to $5,575. At $3,950 this one went 1% below that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 2

What does a clear mean for this BUICK ENCORE?

Accepted Answer

This 2016 BUICK ENCORE was sold on a clear. A clean title means no total-loss brand was recorded at the point of sale, which is unusual at salvage auctions and typically lifts the price.

Question 3

How far is this BUICK ENCORE from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at IAAI in RI - EAST TAUNTON. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 190 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $225-$350, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Question 4

Is 30,439 miles high for a 2016 BUICK ENCORE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2016 BUICK ENCORE listings at auction averaged 65,081 miles across 112 sales, so at 30,439 miles this one sits 53% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.

Question 5

What does "NOT RUN" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

NOT RUN is the auction's own condition note for this 2016 BUICK ENCORE. It means the vehicle started and moved under its own power during a brief check at the yard. It is not a mechanical inspection and says nothing about how far it would drive. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

Question 6

Who sold this 2016 BUICK ENCORE?

Accepted Answer

The listing seller was HOLMAN. Seller type is a useful signal: insurers typically consign total-loss vehicles, rental and fleet operators consign on a cycle regardless of damage, and dealers consign trade-ins they do not want to retail. Each implies a different history behind the same damage label.
