It is true some items went crazy money but allNOSpats do. I will post a few pics of the swap and most lots were large withh 5 ,10,15,20,30 ,40 nos items in a lot. Just put one NOS in a lot and it can go nut to a guy that needs it. The cars were all over the place and didn't understand that, just crazy were some high some low

It could be that the guy got caught up in "auction fever" and is now, just trying to get some of his money back.
Or maybe, the buyers turned out to be no good, and the auction company put them on E-Bay..............

No way that guy is going to make a profit, the cars brought crazy money. His personal roadster was the icing on the cake for me. That car is worth less than half of that, the standard 29 coupe caught my eye but sold for 7500, and it is a long way from running. I bought mine in better shape from Neil Mylar on here for less than that and it ran and drove. I personally do not like auctions, I like a price on things.

Model A's are my hobby. In real life I am a used car dealer. It seems that all auctions this year have been nuts, old cars or new, they are bringing crazy money. If you can figure it out let me know. Seems people do have money and think buying at auction must be a bargain (no matter the price) - but obviously they didn't do their homework ahead of time. It's just weird this year is all I can say.

If you spell you Packard "P-a-c-a-r-d" on ebay, no one will find it. I'm guessing that was just a mistake here though.

"Band Fresh?" I don't get it. Did he mean "barn fresh?"

Looks like he made about $1,400.00 on the fire truck minus ebay fees.
On the T quick flip for about a $5,000.00 profit!
Looks like he did quite well......

He paid $23,115 for the six cars he listed on Ebay so he's still $9715 in
the hole, maybe he sold the Lincoln off Ebay since the auction was canceled.
