"We’ve sold a lawsuit against the District of Columbia government," says David Marchick, executive vice president of Bid4Assets. "We’ve sold a drug dealer’s Lamborghini and 1,000 properties that were defaulted to a county government."
The most unusual lot ever to go up for auction on the site? That would have to be some horse semen from a Colorado farm that went bankrupt, Marchick says. "We had a lot of jokes around here, but that’s valuable stuff," he says. "We sold it to a horse breeder for several thousand dollars. We also sold several horses and some equipment from the farm."
Bid4Assets.com typically runs 1,000 to 2,000 auctions a month and retains up to 20 percent of proceeds. To read more about the company, see "The Right Fit," Page 72.
