If what you mean is how safe is to buy at a sale where there is a redemption period for the prior owner to pay up and get his property back....(which are by no means what fieri facias sales always are). Many tax lien sales have that process.

Normally...the amount that must be paid during the period of redemption goes to the successful bidder, plus a reasonable (sometimes more than reasonable), interest and fee charge. Frequently, people bid at auctions of this type expecting the prior owner to redeeme it...basically doing so as a good interest bearing investment. I'm not sure where you think the "out in the cold" possibility comes from?

Back light not working on radio in jaguar x300 how do you fix it?

There are several companies that repair Jaguar radios for a flat rate. Just 'Google' Jaguar radio repair. If you want to keep the stock unit, or just replace the head with an aftermarket, you can get all the facias. What I want to find is a reasonable LCD clock repair for that car. Some 'highwaymen' in England will do this for $200, which is rediculous for a $5 part.
