Guest Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Nice looking car. Follow link for many more pictures: https://www.estatesales.net/AZ/Glendale/85310/3129402 I think the poor timing of having an auction during the holiday season coupled with a huge 20% buyer's premium will keep the numbers down.

John_S_in_Penna Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 The 20% buyer's premium is a ploy now seen in auctions of some collectibles. It gradually increased from nothing, to 10%, to 15%, and it is now at 20%. That typically means that the seller pays nothing himself--or so it seems-- but in reality he is paying all the fees. Just bid less than you would otherwise. To use round numbers, suppose the Nash above you think is worth $20,000. Bid up to $16,000, because you know a 20% premium will be charged on top of that. So the seller (estate) is really getting only $16,000 anyway, if there is no other fee deducted. With intelligent bidding, they are bearing the brunt of the big fee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gearheadengineer Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Hmmm. In the early ‘90s I owned a 1963 Chevy C20 that was originally owned by Goettl Air Conditioning. Maybe I should have kept it? 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
