I knew I should have hit the "Buy-It-Now".When you say "We get it"looks like you got it. You always get the good stuff.

I would say that several of their ads would have what could best be described as "file photos" that they got from somewhere. If I recall, the Ray Allen Chevelle from last year was not a picture of the actual car, but a close facsimile in stock trim.

Well Bill, maybe you get to keep your car and also get the money from the one that sells

Don,

If I get the money and keep my car I will send you a nice monetary gift for even making the suggestion

Yes, I wonder how many more photos in that booklet have been 'appropriated' from other sources My gut feeling is that B-J themselves is the guilty party here, in the interest of providing as many photos as possible in their promotional literature. If the seller had actually supplied them with that picture, they would probably have it on the website along with the description of the car, too, and that's not the case.

Bill...why do I have the feeling that the car that's actually up for sale at BJ is the one that went though last year? Why wouldn't they use the photos that they already had of that car?

I'm talking about this one...

Bill-

Well...now you've done it! The link on BJ's website to 'your' car now has a picture of <u>YOUR car!</u>

Along with an unknown interior picture

Click Here...dude!

Those idiots at B-J I exchanged several emails with them and they assured me that the owner of the real car to be auctioned was providing them with updated photos
