my reference to oz, is the movie the wizard of oz bj takes 10% from the seller, and charges 10% to the buyer mecum charges a flat fee of $1000.00 and you can set a reserve

please don't take what i say the wrong way. i had to speak up out of conscience. we also thought that the car will bring what it is worth.. we should have sold it at the mecum and only took a loss of a couple of thousand dollars, instead of tens of thousands of dollars at barret...

i have to say this out of concience, as i would someone putting their hand on a hot stove. you're taking a big risk, no matter what they say, they ( barret jackson's), don't have to stick to their word, and you have no recourse. gambling in my oppinion is for $100, $500, not my car. i put my...

when my brother took the 427 super snake to mecum last nov. he said it cost a $1000.00 to run the car through the auction, and he could set a reserve price to protect himself.

here is the other side of what i saw. if bj is the big show and the most professional auction out there, then a car shouldn't be missrepresented? what they say a car is, should be what the car is. so a buyer should be able to trust bj. i saw a 69 torino cobra at bj. they said no sheet metal...

barret jackson has most everyone believing that they are the show, but that's the hoax. they only put on tv what they want you to see. a no-reserve auction caters to the buyer, not the seller. it's a liquidation auction. but they have a superior marketing dept. that's their edge over the...

no problem cory, i don't hit all of the shows, but some of them are fun. some like park city have perks. 50 of us got to take our cars out on miller motor sports track in tooele utah. it was rrrreeeeeaaaalllllllyyyyyy fun. well......... till your brakes get too hot...... it took a little...

it's not about the car or the money. simple put : after seeing barret jackson in person, with my own eyes, i believe there are better places to sell a car. see, the wizard doesn't want you to look behind the curtain, he want's you to only see the show.

i pulled a drum on my pickup one time and found the socket i was missing for awhile.

it's not about market, it doesn't change that much in two months. it's about barret jackson, and the way they are perceived as the holy grail of car auctions. i was in market delusion, then i took a trip to the land of oz, and to the emerald city. and i went before the wizard............and...

hopefully in the garage before you go down the road????? no serious incident i hope????

$115,000.00 at mecum should have meant $150,000.00 at barret jackson's atleast that's what barret jackson's want's everyone to believe. i heard that russo used to be in with barret jackson, and that he left because he didn't like the way barret jackson was running their auction. if i ever...

also, he bought the gt500 conv. for $65,000.00 the supersnake conversion was $27,000.00 to $30,000.00 and the 427 package was another $7000.00 and then the cost of trips and things, and that's not counting intrest. http://www.hubgarage.com/mygarage/jbart/vehicles/36596/photos/1429923

it will be worth more down the road, like wine it needs time. it was a 427 shelby super snake conv.. but here is the catch. it was the only 427 super snake on display inside the neon garage race weekend. that race was the first time shelby had anything to do with nascar. and it was autographed...

i think the point is being missed. $115,000.00 at a less renown auction two months prior. at barret jacksons $77,000.00 difference = primetime versus after primetime barret jacksons is a "BIG" gamble. my brother, i believe paid extra money for the sat. night prime time slot, and...

well i have wanted to forget the jan 2010 scottsdale barret-jackson. from what i saw, if your car doesn't go through at a good time, most cars ,i saw lost alot of money. 1990 thunderbird supercoupe 40,000 miles, nice clean car $1500 if i would have had a bidder number i would have bought...

well just a few weeks to go, and i'm looking forward to seeing everyone.

boy that's a short list. i think a couple of us in idaho don't have our state in our profile

i understand, their are a couple of shows like that though. the one in idaho falls on fathers day. i think the one in am. falls too. you can come and go as you please.

cory, why didn't you put a car in??
