I understand there is risk involved when you expose your car to a no reserve auction, especially a Cobra replica. But the risk should be limited to how the crowd reacts to your car. Will there be two bidders who like it enough to drive up the price to what I think it's worth? I accepted that risk and would not have complained about a similar result had the car run around 7:30pm as anticipated. But a consignor should not have to risk whether the car will be bid on by 2,000 potentail bidders or 20 potential bidders. The lot number you are given, upon which you base your decision to take the first risk, tells you that. Now we know that at Barrett-Jackson, there is a second level of risk you are taking when you consign your car.

I have requested relief from them. I'll let you know how they respond.
