Does it seem stupid that someone wanted to pay $132K at BJ when the same car was on Ebay several times for $115K. I'll bet that is one of the bid up cars without a new owner.

My two cents on this sale with no owner change. I can't believe that anyone would send a valuable car through with no reserve..............unless you had a friend bidding it up for you. So my suspicious mind says that big $ sales on no reserve cars are questionable. But, I hope all the big prices are true and that the value of my cars get dragged up by it. However, until my car is sold and the money is in my back pocket, I haven't done anything. I have a friend who was counting his money on his Ferrari 275 GTB? Had an offer of 470000 years ago and turned it down, it dropped as low as 200000 and it is now a 250000 car. You just don't know what is going to happen. Fortunately, I like the cars, and want to have them. If I make money on them fine, if not, oh well, you only live once and I get pleasure from them.

A perfect example of the Barrett-Jackson effect:

Ebay auction yesterday high bid was $29,000 sold today for $57,000!

If you look at the bids you will notice that the car was stagnate at 28,800. on the 22nd, then on the 24th after the auction it took off, this is a number 2 car as described by owner. If you look at the car it has some issues as per correctness. I think they saw what happened on B-J and bid it up themselves so the car wasnt "gave away". Sure a confusing time for any 69 Z/28 owner. Now the big question, What are they really worth?

He has had the 275 for around 30 years now, paid somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 K for it, and probably plans on being buried in it.
