Question 1

Was $17,500 a good price for this 2023 BUICK ENCORE GX?

Accepted Answer

547 comparable 2023 BUICK ENCORE GX listings sold at auction for a median of $5,000, spanning $3,500 to $7,225. At $17,500 this one went 250% above 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

How much below its undamaged value did this BUICK ENCORE GX sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2023 BUICK ENCORE GX's pre-damage retail value at $24,675. It sold for $17,500 — 29% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

Question 3

What does a clean title mean for this BUICK ENCORE GX?

Accepted Answer

This 2023 BUICK ENCORE GX was sold on a clean title. 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 4

What does "RUN AND DRIVES" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2023 BUICK ENCORE GX. 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 5

How far is this BUICK ENCORE GX from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in OH - COLUMBUS. The nearest major vehicle export port is Baltimore, roughly 430 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $375-$525, 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 6

Is 31,025 miles high for a 2023 BUICK ENCORE GX?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2023 BUICK ENCORE GX listings at auction averaged 31,244 miles across 547 sales, so at 31,025 miles this one sits 1% 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.
