About KCI Kansas City

Serving major markets throughout the Midwest, KCI Kansas City offers a full range of remarketing services including reconditioning, inspections, transportation, salvage auctions, equipment auctions, and Internet auctions. KCI Kansas City remarkets vehicles for wholesale consignors including dealers, manufacturers, rental car companies, banks, finance, and leasing institutions. Its primary customer base draws from Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.

KCI Kansas City was established in 1978 and was previously known as P & S Auto Auction and Kansas Auto Auction. The original auction was located in Elwood, KS and operated in that location for twenty-nine years.

Auction owners, Gregg Boswell and Doug Doll, have more than forty-five years combined auto auction experience. Both came through the auction ranks working in various departments, learning all aspects of the industry. Under their direction the auction saw tremendous growth. It grew from selling seventy-five cars per week to selling two hundred seventy-five cars per week. Meanwhile, the facility grew from five to
twenty-three acres. Eventually, the auction outgrew its location and knew it was time to move forward.

In response to the rising demand for its services, the auction made a land purchase in Kansas City, MO in 2006 and began the process of constructing a state of the art facility. Construction began in October of 2007, taking nine months to complete. KCI Kansas City welcomed customers to a long-awaited opening of their new facility in July of 2008. Shortly after its opening, Bob McConkey Jr purchased ownership in KCI Kansas City. With his extensive background and wholesale auto auction experience, Bob is a tremendous asset and the auction will continue to prosper under his direction.

KCI Kansas City continues to expand to serve growing sales and services. We continue to improve facilities and increase services, including the introduction of Auction Pipeline Internet Sales. Currently, auction officials are planning for additional parking spaces, a test track, and an on-site reconditioning facility with all being completed by Spring of 2011.
