Default Re: Mecum car prices

Certainly if you want to bring top dollar for rare cars, it wasnt a good idea to bring so many good cars at once because it confuses people as to what they want to buy,having multiple[3] ls6 ragtops and 2 zl1s did nothing but bring the price down for them. Had there been one of each i think both types of cars would have broiught alot stronger money. If there were 2 guys wanting a zl1 they didnt have to compete against each other since there were 2 cars for them .

I believe that Dave had 21 cars for sale at the auction and all were sold except the restomod Mustang. The cars brought over 4.9 million plus commissions. While I liked the setup at the auction site it is not in a great location as was already said. I hope they move the auction to St. Charles.

If they all add up to 4.9 million in sales plus fees, plus the sale of the signs, then everyone is satisfied and nobody got hurt. Maybe it wasn't the home run they expected and hoped for but not a disaster either. That is good news if the number is 4.9 million.
