If he was smart he ended up being the winning bidder. Far cheaper to pay the total buyer/seller fees (something like 18% in total?) than to take a bath under selling.

That is why I would not put a car in a no-reserve auction............
A buddy considered putting his 65 GT-350 in the 06 auction in Scottsdale, but ended up selling it privately, he got probably 10% more than a similar car went for at BJ that year and did not have to pay the commission nor the entry fee and did not have to transport the car to Arizona and babysit it for a week and take a chance on a sale...........
It's a crap shoot and I think the whole collector car thing is past due for a "re-alingment", maybe we are starting to see that now, next years BJ will tell the tale.........
