Guys, do you have any clue what the costs are to be a consigner at Sotheby's? And that's IF it gets accepted after you submitted all the docs and pics.
You've got an entry fee, a professional photography fee, transportation costs to the auction site, and of course, a minimal 10% of the hammer price, all for your sub-$80k car. And what if it doesn't sell or make reserve? Tough shitsky. Come and get it.
That's why BaT is a relatively good deal.

in my case, I was using Southeby's as the shorthand for any of the various automotive auction houses that would tend to bring a higher number to a documented original 28K mile car than what BAT is going to generate.

Agree that Southeby's may not be the right venue.

However, we'll see what BAT brings in the closing days. For the moment, price appears to have stalled. Hopefully a sign that others don't see it as original miles either. As it stands at $28K that would definately be a great buy. We'll see what it runs up to at close.

yes - $ action has cooled off!
it would be a good car to pick up at around that price.

probably be a flurry in the final half hour.

if a bidder did think it was the real deal they should have a plane ticket booked to see it in the metal. at least they would know what the top end is thanks to sotherbys.
