WANDERING JOE'S
USED VEHICLES


While
many who visit the Nomad Market use vehicles to barter and trade, there
is only one merchant who specializes
in buying and selling
vehicles. Wandering Joe's is also one of the few, and the
largest,
permanent establishments of the market. In fact, Wandering
Joe's has done more to centralize and expand the Night City Nomad
Market
than anything else. With its massive sprawling lot,
and prominent auction
site, the Wandering Joe's complex is vast, and
takes up 2 miles of the north eastern
section of the market, easily dwarfing even the largest of clan
headquarters.
Wandering
Joe's has a hard earned reputation of fairness and honestly. They
simply will not sell a vehicle that does not run . In
fact, the policy is that if the vehicle can't make it through the gates
on its own power, then they will
not take it at all. Once
they
have accepted a vehicle they have a large staff of fully trained
mechanics, some
of
the best in the world in fact, to repair any engine
problems and ensure that the vehicle will last at least a year, or your
money back.
Wandering
Joe's has no clan affiliation, although some say they are a clan
themselves. In addition to the at
least 30 permanent mechanics on staff,
they also boast more security personnel than any other sector of the
Market. They openly hire
security and mechanics, though they do
not allow any clan ties
to interfere with the duties as required. Any employee caught
trying to deceive or steal from Wandering Joe's is dealt with harshly,
and often permanently, even more so if the person is doing so under
influence from their individual clan. In addition to security
and mechanical duties, Wandering Joe's also employs gophers to park
vehicles or fetch them for
auction, and a small staff to run their
web site, listing vehicles coming up for auction.
All the
Auctioneers are members of Joe's family. He
himself auctions the cars, his brother
Zeke auctions the trucks, his son Cletus auctions the
motorcycles, his wife Meg auctions the aircraft, his sister Jo-Jo
auctions the watercraft, and his cousin Merle auctions everything else.
Wandering
Joe's is an open auction, and
vehicles are displayed for a full week before
they go up for bid. It may
seem a bit of an aggravation to nomads wishing to sell their
vehicles that they be forced to wait this long, but first the mechanics
have to inspect
the
engine, then the buyers have to be given time to
identify which vehicles they wish to purchase. Any nomad
wanting a quick return on his vehicle is
advised to simply use it as barter with one of the many merchants in
the market, or find an individual buyer and sell it to them
directly. As is the case with all technology sold in the
market, Wandering Joe's only accepts sellers with clan
affiliation. This is so they can enforce their money back
guarantee. More than anywhere
else, it is important that you are honest
here, as if your clan has to foot the bill for your
deceit than they will come after you with a vengeance. Wandering
Joe's keep strict
records on both the
individual seller
and their clan to help assuage
any duplicit dealings.
That being said,
Wandering Joe's will
accept any
vehicle, so long as it runs,
regardless of circumstance.
While
wandering Joe's accepts any vehicle that runs, the only vehicles we
will
be showing you here are those which fall under the class of nomad
vehicle, which most often means they have been highly modified,
sometimes from scratch, or are otherwise unique enough to be classified
as such. With that being said, please browse the lot for what we
have coming up for sale this week. For the purposes of the
auction, crew refers only to the minimum number of people it takes to
drive the vehicle. All vehicles come exactly as shown. For
and additional fee you can have our secondary mechanics install any
options you can supply the parts for.
