They just hammered the blue LS 5 for $54k. they had to pimp it a couple times to get it up from $40k. Low mileage and looked nice, but there wasn't a bidder there that wanted to go $75k.
They are really skipping a lot of the cars to talk about themselves and show pictures of everything else. I am going to email them that they forgot this is all about the cars and not them talking about themselves and showing the flea market stuff. I'm surprised with all the auctions that they are wasting time showing everything else. Like they will care. At least with the net you can still see what is going across.

I think they are really trying to show the size of the place... and all the amenities... to draw in more people. Not buyers. $$ made on tickets........

I wonder how some of those guys feel when they sober up the next morning and realize how much they spent. Im guessing the free booze sells alot of cars...Oh yea..Same reason its free at most casinos in Vegas.

$500 buyer registration fees, the liquor is hardly free.

Out in the garage next too my 72 is a frig stocked with beer, my car is paid for and I can run my hands all over it without anyone yelling at me, on a REALLY good night my wife might end up out there on the hood with only a smile and some make up on. :beers:

I'm savin ALOT of money stayin @ home, no airline travel to AZ and I KNOW I'm gonna get lucky... :D

Jim/RedAllison..your comments... :thumbsup: :beers:

This thread is useless without pictures. ;)

I think I figured out the "code" today. Every time the bid starts to stall, fat Craig gets on the mike and tells everyone how much this car is worth (like they don't know). That's the signal for the owner to bid to get it going again. Its blown up in his face a couple of times already. I always thought a car was worth what someone was willing to pay for it, not what fat Craig thinks its worth. Oh, I forgot HE profits from your sale, loss or not.

Might be right about Jackson pimping the bids when they slow down. I have begun to think maybe those are cars they own or their friends own. If I was a bidder and the auctioneer tried to tell me a car was worth more then I thought it was worth with comments like Jackson makes I would quit bidding. He is speaking out on about 3 out of 4 auctions this afternoon. I haven't watched a lot today, but seems like on every car he is acting like a teacher telling the kids the car is worth more then they want to pay!

I agree with you Jim except for the wife laying on the hood.:noway:

lol just make sure she lays with the "heaviest section" on the top of the quarters! :D

You'd be surprised how much them ol Cowl Induction hoods will hold up, ;)
