our little game is becoming more popular. Will be interesting to see the distribution of winners as the number of participants increases. I suspect it will remain flat.

Maybe new players should pass a very basic logical reasoning skills test before posting?

If I could change my bid I would. The seller is killing this deal. He won't show the car or make it available for a ppi, the over-revs may be a real issue with this one, or not, but a non-cooperative seller isn't helping. I think the sale will tank and likely RNM. I think this one is going to be ilovemaui's.

I agree, RNM most likely. And WTF kind of seller doesn't anticipate buyers wanting to, you know, actually SEE a car they are bidding on if local?

But the active bidder who is throwing gasoline on this dumpster fire of an auction with his "abused car, gloom and doom, but i'd buy it for the right price" comments is doing neither the seller or the community any favors and seems like an extremely disingenuous attempt to scare off other bidder.

I like the orange PTS but the inside (stitching and vents) is overkill.

Starts to remind me of things from childhood.



But this opinion is coming from a guy in a Smurf mobile. : )

is the winner allowed to back out of it post auction if PPI shows major flaw? or are PPIs even allowed post auction?

Buying a 75k car base on some pictures and seller promising "its a non issue car" isn't very reassuring, let alone viewing of the actual car isn't allowed for local buyers. I think this is true for any car regardless of how the DME looked.

BAT needs to censor every jackass with an agenda or apparent agenda. It's one thing to question the left exhaust nut on a 356 and another to drone on and on about a Mezger's DME 1,000+ hours ago.

That's not how car auctions work... Though with BAT, evidently a notable percentage of auctions don't actually close.

Some buyers just never follow through, but they typically loose their 5% BAT fee which is locked in on credit card when they bid.
