I would bet Pratt also received deep discounts on commissions both ways from BJ and in some cases I would bet he paid none at all. In effect he was used as advertising for BJ for people to spend more money than they would have otherwise.
Potential buyers think: Here is a super rich, smart guy buying very high priced cars. He must know something I don't so i will pay high prices too.
Probably some right offs also done by sharp accountants.
Guys like Pratt don't normally lose money.
