Bring a Trailer Experience?

[WVU fan]

They have a large waitlist and some kind of system for how many vehicles go live a day. They have really opened up what they will sell. I have heard that Monday ending auctions go for less $ than a thurs/fri/sat ending. (Someone probably has stats on that claim). Be ready to work the questions, compliments, trolls, etc once it is live. You have a great rig and lots of respect in the community but it wouldn’t hurt to have some other well known aficionados/shop owners chime in when it is live to praise your build.

A lot of demand
The write up will be overwritten
Hence what I was saying earlier
Links to documentation and build threads will help offset their canned English major write ups they generate that you can post in the comments once the auction goes live


Also don’t come off the reserve you want
They will push for it
Same as mecum or any other auction house

It may start soon, or it may take a while. They stagger the auctions so that (my guess) they don't have two nearly-identical vehicle auctions going on at the same time. One of my auctions said it would take 'a while' and then started hours later. I wish they gave you more warning, as mine started/ended during holiday weekends when it was difficult for me to be near a computer/internet to answer questions. You really have to be present during the action to field questions promptly.

Thanks everyone. I got an email they accepted my vehicle and my reserve. I paid the fee and the email said to take down the ad. Hopefully it goes well!

Good luck Ken, I'll be watching the auction.
