........., the car we took there this year did $115K and we wanted $150K and still had to pay the fees and commissions.........

So what you are saying you bought back your own car??? 20% of 115k is 23k.

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.

Was your car in TV ?

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?

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?

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.

The TV part had nothing to do with that.

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... mad

How much more $ would it have cost them to sell the car with a Saturday spot?


Earning every penny of that moderator paycheck.

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.
