Yes but...it's not hard to buy stuff at an auction, getting a good deal is tougher. All you need is to have you and one other guy that really wants it and paying retail (or above) is possible. This looks like a good deal at 42k but it's a short step up to the mid 60s and a not so good deal.
I once watched 2 guys pay retail for a repo truck that had to be towed home...even the auctioneer was shaking his head.
