Sounds good, have you ever been able to get them to change any contract? I have never tried. I know with other things like homeowners policies, phone companies etc, if you say that you don't agree with a clause or some such and want it changed they tell you to go pound dirt. All of the carriers have the same verbage, and you really have no choice if you want that service....

The idea of a consignor service however seems like a good one, and with multiple cars, might be able to garnish some concessions. I like that one, and as a hobbiest, I would use that service. I bet he could even get better rates with the car carriers for volume etc.

Isn't "Auction Advocate" exactly what the guy was that brought the red GT500 to R-S was ? Did he not do just about all that stuff except he screwed up and entered the car at the wrong reserve ?

Good observation Charley!

I'd suggest using someone competent not Mr. Haney.

My brother owns a auction company and I help him reguraly. Another larger and older auction company that has been here for over 40 years started having classic car auctions and my brother who is a world class auctioneer helped them a time or two.He has since been weaning them off of his skills due to the fact that if you want a bad name start selling cars the way it is currently done.
