    How are you allowed to restrict someone from a public auction? As long as they ended up paying you what does it matter?
    If you default on money owed to a place and they auction your stuff, you're absolutely blocked from buying it back yourself.

    Otherwise, every scum around would default on payments for storage and then buy their stuff back at auction for far less than the storage would have cost them.

    There's a reason you have to register to be able to bid in an auction.

      Exactly - you wouldn't believe how many customers in default call and ask all kinds of questions about purchasing at the auction. It doesn't take a mind reader to figure out where they are going with their questions. Just for fun, I usually tell them that we only make a fraction of what the debt is when auctioning their stuff and tell them that the money is applied toward their debt and that they are still responsible for the difference. You can envision them shitting their pants We had a guy call this week about his stuff that was auctioned. He claims that their was paperwork in the container that related to his job that he was desperate to get back. Of course, we figure it was his porn collection
