In the interest of benchmarking: http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_d...emv&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=CH1013-S219 Any predications on what the hammer drops for??
Saw same thing with buyers premium added in way oversold. I'll bet Dana took a cut to make this happen "poor guy" These auctions sure have brought a lot of recent attention to our cars not sure if that is good or bad.Just looked at the Mecum results for Chicago. The GT sold for $240k. Maybe an off the block sale occurred?
How would you explain 4-5 cars a year being sold at well over market at Mecum and BJ, while the other hundred + or so cars changing hands sell for much less?
What I'm saying, is that the buyers there at these auctions (most all of them) have more money than brains and are overpaying for everything.
i have been saying for years that the buyers at Mecum and BJ have more money than brains, paying well over what cars are actually worth. And the 8-10% buyer's premium? As Shelby mentioned - these cars can be bought for far less outside of those venues...and that's what these cars are really worth, not the stupid money they get at Mecum and BJ.
