does that mean that buyers and sellers names are a matter of public record? In othere words, can I find out the name of the person who won a bid at an auction and how much the bid was? If so, where can I go to get the information (the buyers name)?

no. public means anyone can bid. since it's run by a private company they normally dont release the personal information of their customers

I am not an expert on that. But, no, depending on what type of auction you are talking about. If it is a real estate auction, then, yes, the recording of deeds, etc. would be available as a matter of public record. However, if you are talking about an auction of general merchandise, such as I used to see in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, then this just means that the public can be present and participate. However, it would not be a requirement that the bidders name be available to everyone else in attendance...if fact, I would think that most would not want their identity known, generally.

Google "Public automobile Auctions" on your area yet you would be able to desire to understand that maximum public automobile auctions are the backside of the low, the backside of the barrel, the final resting place of any used automobile that would no longer be bought any incorrect way. lots of the vehicles they sell are finished crap. Unsellable by making use of even the main inexpensive used automobile plenty. If it became a physically powerful automobile it would not finally end up on the traditional public public sale, it can result at a broking being bought for retail costs.

I have tried to get the name of a buyer, because like many auctions, stuff is sold in a wild way. I had bought a box of tools that had parts for a tool bought by someone else, talked to the auction and they said NO .I had the buyers # and said to have them call me, nogo..
anyway I had a tool I could not use, and I'm sure he also did. what a waste.
I think auctions should take more care in getting the right stuff together ...

At some extremely rpofessional auctions, yes. But normally they call it public just for the legal purposes only
