Is anyone else bidding?

 

This is such a dumb auction site... on the surface it seems like a decent deal at $220k but with the next increment puts the car at $287,500 all in which is too close to a BAT price so $220k might close it out...'maybe' one more bid but the increment after that is $322k.

 

You cannot put a smaller number in? That is really dumb

 

No, it is really silly. The next "max bid" I can put in is 250k.

 

yup..all those fees and the listing and sales specialist is garbage

 

Eric didn't even answer the phone or my email... LOL... ohh well I'd have to make $on it to deal with the sh*$ my wife will give me for a kermit RS sitting in the garage when I won't budge on the budget for her new house.

 

mention you have a child that you would want to share the glory that is a frog .1.

 

I thought it looked too good to be true this close to the end.

 

Bad listing and not great service. However, they will still collect $30k+ in fees for this totally online auction. These big auction houses such as Gooding and Company, RM, and Bonhams are way behind in the online auction game it seems.

 

It's very annoying it can't go up $10k at a time. They would get more bids. Everyone spending that kind of money will go another $10k.

 

Well... $322k it is . BAT caps large ticket items at $5k fee...these others will be dinosaurs soon.

$313,600 with 12% buyer fee.

 

Ohh I thought it was 15%... 12% is way better

 

Buyers premium for their online auctions needs to change. For example, this 300SL Roadster that sold back in July sold for $1.43 million and BAT only charges $5k for buyers premium. Bonhams would collect nearly $150k in buyers premium fees for this car.

It is 12% for the first $250k and 10% for the remainder of the amount above $250k.
