What is the best time of year to put a Cobra up for sale? Early Spring? Early Fall? Just curious.

Mid to late June has always been the sweet spot for me.

Late Spring (May)
Because of the tax returns money coming back and
the up coming driving weather

Was that your Backdraft that sold for $90k? Was there something special about it to bring that money?

Why do you think they give free drink tickets to registered bidders? And of course the ring people doing the "don't let HIM win, your d!ck is bigger than his!" prodding while the TV camera is on you does not hurt the seller!

Those bonuses would be buying REAL original Cobra's, not knock offs.
