[/ QUOTE ]Steve, you want to hear obnoxious? Did you happen to catch one of the auctioneers say to a bidder "someone just donated 1 million dollars to charity and you cannot afford to buy a $210,000 car?" The bidder was in a war with a hot rod convertible. I was floored. Inappropriate at best considering his condescending tone.

That was unbelievable! If that happened to me, they would have escorted me out the door after I was through with them!

one thing that sticks in my head, that my dad always said...

never, absolutely NEVER, do business with anyone that won't take their sunglasses off, so you can't see the truth in their eyes....

to this day, I live by that creed.

My wife noticed the sunglasses guy too, said he looked like a shady hick. Unless he's had some sort of disfiguring injury, he really ought to drop that routine.

PS, thanks for the correction on the 4dr hemi ride, I would have figured it for a police pkg, if not for the color.

I won't begin to stick up for shady characters or anyone with a good poker face, but sadly I have an eye disease that requires me to wear dark prescription glasses outdoors always and inside brightly lit stores, supermarkets etc. I've heard mumblings of crap like "what are you a F#$(&^g movie star or something" to "why dont you take off your shades so you can see what you're doing". The sad thing is, is that I can't see what I'm doing without them. I even have to where them while watching TV during the day. I would much rather fit into the crowd rather have someone ask me if I'm selling pencils.

Was anybody else offended by the conduct of the bidder assistants?

What I find obnoxious is that they get right in the bidders faces and put a hand on their leg or arm around them. Totally innapropriate contact. I saw the skinny "screamer" guy grab the inner thigh of one bidder in his chair. My wife saw that on TV and looked at me and said: "Did he just do what I think he did?" Yup. If he did that to me I'd make one hell of scene.

How about the older male assistant that kept grabbing the 6 year old son of a major bidder and kept hugging him and holding up for the crowd. Very creepy! It looked like a NAMBLA recruiting photo.

Steve,

Did you see this boys mother ( I believe ) try to coax him
back to her? I was somewhat bothered by this. Good observation.

Steve

if your in it for investment sell your copo or 67 z28 and buy a shelby or mopar there kicking chevys butt as far as price and demand the camaro sales this week were a joke no big money I guess its because so many crooks have made clones and fake trim tags with false docs and even the real cars cant prove much anymore I think a lot of this is because of how some of you that think you are experts and are ceartinally not knock cars like you did my l78 when actually you have no clue everyone thinks they can pick apart a car because a hose is not the right color or a bolt dosent have paint on or the paper for pop looks too white (that one kills me)it etc maby one of these days you will learn to say nice car wish it was in my garauge and maby the prices will go up instead of down!!

We were watching Barret Jackson...what were you watching ? Mopars weren't very strong...Shelby's are always pretty strong.

By no means was I making light of anyone with an eye problem and completely understand that sometimes you have no choice. I have seen videos of Steve with out the sunglasses and it appears his eyes are working properly.
