Yes my Dad sold a 1970 Dodge Charger V Code car at BJ a few years ago and it was not a great experience. First time seller and the car was definitely short gaveled. Can't remember the numbers but you are guaranteed a certain amount of time on the block and it was not given. Not much you can do about it as they have iron clad contracts and everything is no reserve. They did get good money for stuff this year however and this was a few years ago.

We only really talk about the ones that make TV. Could the fake sales we see on TV just entice people to list their cars that actually sell and get commissions on?

Years ago there was a lawsuit about not being given the agree upon time on the block. I never heard an outcome. Pretty interesting you’d be guaranteed a set amount of time and it be on their own video as to how long you got. Not sure if your car was on tv, the one(s) in question supposedly were.

Changing the subject slightly, I think if you are decent with a camera and don’t mind interacting as a seller I think Bring a Trailer is the go to right now, decent well presented cars are doing very well there as I have been following all the Dodge and Plymouth muscle cars for quite a while. $99 to list a car is all it costs to list for the seller and 5% for buyer. I will be listing and representing a friend of mine’s’69 Road Runner very soon.

BaT is a neat site, but mopars are soft on there. Be sure to get a reserve.
I talked to a seller about a car and it turned out he’d been waiting a few months for his BaT slot to come up. It sounded to me like BaT pushed him hard to go no reserve. Several people I talked to felt this was a 50k car. I ended up not pulling the trigger and snatched up a local car. I saw the auction a few weeks later and it went for something like only 36k.

Only a god damn fool would sell their car on live TV for the whole world to see( IRS) . I know a guy who sold an "R" code car a few years ago and had to make quarterly payments to the U.S. Treasury for the capital gain. If he had sold it privately who would know? The TV part had nothing to do with that.

Just got back from B-J and have only been there one time in the last 10 years, had a booth there for 5 years as a vendor. NEVER, I will repeat, NEVER sell a car at B-J, the car we took there this year did $115K and we wanted $150K and still had to pay the fees and commissions. If I ever sell a car at auction again it will be Mecum, and Dana buys a good percentage of the cars there too...LOL that u didn't get your number is bj?s fault.... now that's funny Wasn't my car but one I took there, and it WAS B-J's fault, they had no bidder assistants in the Muscle Lounge and there were three people trying to get the BA's attention! On Saturday there were lots of BA's up there...
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

By the time they wanted to sell it there were no Saturday prime time spots left, but I don't know the answer anyway what the prices are for prime time.
