Barney Eaton Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 This Reatta is in the R/M auction at Meadow Brook Hall this coming weekend. It is also on the Ebay auction.This is one to watch as the starting bid is $10,000 and they estimate a sale price between $20-30K plus the buyers premium.I would like to see it go high, but at the same time I hate these auctions and their premiums.Here is the link. http://cgi.liveauctions.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&viewitem=&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fmotors.search.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Fsofocus%3Dbs%26sbrftog%3D1%26catref%3DC12%26from%3DR10%26_trksid%3Dm37%26satitle%3D150145985880%26sacat%3D6001%2526catref%253DC6%26a39%3D-24%26a38v1y%3D%26a38v2y%3D%26a10239%3D-24%26a39705%3D-24%26a10244%3D-24%26alist%3Da39%252Ca41%252Ca38v1y%252Ca38v2y%252Ca10239%252Ca3801%252Ca85%252Ca10246%252Ca33512%252Ca10241%252Ca10244%252Ca39705%26pfmode%3D1%26reqtype%3D1%26gcs%3D13%26pfid%3D2473%26pf_query%3D150145985880%26sargn%3D-1%2526saslc%253D2%26sadis%3D200%26fpos%3D78628%26sabfmts%3D1%26saobfmts%3Dinsif%26ftrt%3D1%26ftrv%3D1%26saprclo%3D%26saprchi%3D%26sadis1%3D100%26fpos1%3D78628%26lsot1%3D%26fsop%3D1%2526fsoo%253D1%26coaction%3Dcompare%26copagenum%3D1%26coentrypage%3Dsearch%26sadis2%3D100%26fpos2%3D78628%26lsot2%3D%26fvi%3D1&item=150145985880 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYBobP Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Several of my old Buick friends forward the info to me. I signed up for the auction, but don't think I'd pay over 20K. However, I might be willing to <span style="font-style: italic">sell</span> one for over 20K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booreatta Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I want it but you know who said not only NO but He** NoSuch is life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadster90 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I am going to forecast (guess) 19K. Hefty buyers fee going on here.....Many folks do not realize or seem to think that 13% is not a big deal. Generally speaking 13% is not a big deal when you are trading in "dollars". BUT 13% of "thousands of dollars" as in 19 of them is somewhat of a fairly sizable BIG deal....like ONE THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED DOLLARS worth. If you are fortunate to have 19K and win the auction, your actual cash layout will be almost 21K. This does not cover expenses to fetch the nice ride so it can go well over the 21K.Do you folks remember less than a year or so ago a lady was having a very difficult selling a 3000 mile Select Sixty? Before it ended up being sold for 16k it was offered to me for 15k....Yup, I was very much a fool I guess...should have bought it and sold mine, but as BooReatta stated or insinuated above...there were outside influences involved...those "influences" wore a skirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacoma Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I went to RM Auctions web site. The SS will be auctioned August 4th with NO RESERVE. Will be interesting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booreatta Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Jerry make sure you keep everybody posted on this on, oh by the way you have a very nice car and a great state to live in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadster90 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Depending on how you look at a/the final sales price (as in with or without the 13% sales premium), I may be very close on my "guess" on the final price of the S/S ..... or waaay off. There was an excellent 90 black on red roadster w/6000 miles that just sold for around 21K. See auction detail below.I do think that the S/S should fetch more than a standard roadster however, there are more folks out there that are not informed as to the rarity of the S/S than there are that do know or are informed. If the several loosing bidders on the black on red roadster are aware of the S/S auction, and a few more serious "aware" bidders are notified of the auction to create a bidders war, then this WILL be a very very interesting auction to watch.

Guest TommyH Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 WOW!!!! 28K!! That makes the $3200 for Grey look almost reasonable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tammy Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Oh it does make me feel GOOD!!! and I have had thoughts about selling my car. (Only because the money (any money)would relly help us right now. We were given a offer to buy the place next to us, but the offer is only good for a week. So I have until Thursday to get my ducks in a row.)BUT.....I'm in love with my little car and so are my kids! And I have lots of fun with it. If anything I would like to own a low mileage '91 coupe.

Booreatta Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I would love to own a low mileage s60, but again I asked my wife and she not only said no but he** no. What was I thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
