Default Re: Help With Selling #1 Car at Auction - Mecum Indy?

I was encouraged to put a note in the window or on the display with my contact number while at the auction for that minute or two that I was not standing with the car, just in case someone needed to get in touch with me. No &quot;union driver&quot; craziness either. </div></div>

Thanks for the info, Steve. Will be nice if I can unplug periodically and check out the other cars at the auction. If they have my cell # that will make it easier.

I would recommend havng someone you know drive it across the block so you are free to be at the podium to negotiate any dropping of the reserve or a better commision rate. When you get there they will immediately ask you &quot;what's your lowest amount you need?&quot;.

Don't fall for that, just respond: &quot;Let's see how high you can get it bid to and then we can talk&quot;.

Otherwise they will run it through very quickly and just try to get it sold for that amount you just gave them.

Put on your &quot;War Face&quot; and stand your ground. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
