Terry #16 - looking at the bidder history - seems in the last 30 days he/she has made 30+ bids on....Video Games & Consoles > Video Games.......

May be wrong - but would think not a serious bidder

I've talked to Woodburn a few times and have friends in Nye and Billings Mt that know him,he plays fairly straight and does not have a reputation for being shady,if you want to talk shady that would be a guy named kroon there in the same neck of the woods,Bob has a lot of stuff but asks top dollar for it when he decides to sell something.

Does that make this Model A, one of the most valuable in the U.S.? Yikes.

So this closed yesterday with 4 bidders and a winning bid of $61,100. So much for the analysis above.

The fact that it got any bids with such a high opening bid blew me away.

Go to the original listing, no sale, reserve not met. There is a little blue line just above the photo when you first open the link, click on it to see full ad.

I'm really amazed it went so high. I would like to assume that Model A'ers wouldn't do any shill bidding tactics but to me its strange that at 61K it didn't meet reserve. I'll admit with items as rare or unique as this though its a whole different market and clientele. You really can't predict that stuff sometimes. Its cool for sure though.

Maybe the most important part?

General Description
Please DO NOT bid on this car yet. I just raised the first bid price to 20 times what I had planed to start it at to keep people from bidding until I can correct and complete my description of this car. I started working on this listing a couple of weeks ago and forgot it was scheduled to start this evening. Once I have corrected the several historical errors in this description, I will drop the first bid price to $4,995 and let the action run. I am out of town and will not likely be able to complete this description until some time on Sunday January 25 at the earliest. I am sorry for any confusion or frustration this might cause and appreciate your patience. Bob Woodburn


Seems fair enough.
