Jim, thank you. looking back thru it was B Lee that tossed the turn.
My apologise to Paul,, an innocent party he is.

Lots of BS'ing not much action, like watching grass grow. If the car ends up in NZ that would be a really great deal for Mark. Very nice car, no comparison to others being sold.
GLWS Frank. I guess everything heats up with 5 minutes on the clock, just like the NBA.
P.S. Frank, you should have gotten money from the Arizona tourist Board for that video.

Too funny Dave,,, and I may win the Lotto draw on Saturday as well..
I live in hope because without that I would be hopeless,, I have a couple of forum members who would like come down and do a tip to tail drive with some serious detours. Thumbs up on the Tourist Board donation FB should get,, an amazing part of our wonderful world.

I agree David; totally boring.
Even many of the smartest-one-in-the-room types moved on. (Except Mr. Lee... I think the others realized they were crashing a party where the host and his homies were well armed.) Except for that Rickster cat; that poor guy might as well be blathering to himself on a bus bench.
I must say, if I was a long hood shopper with no sense of humor and a very busy schedule I would have turned off the email notification 4 days ago. There's some gold nuggets there but to sift through all the squawking takes fortitude. Hopefully buyers show up for the awards banquet.
BTW: I can't believe there's nothing you miss about the Valley of the Sun. I was born here and still marvel at the beauty of the desert and you're right; I should figure out a way to extract $$ from the town of Carefree.
Frank great video -I am hiring you next time I sell a car.

Frank in my opinion you are sitting pretty. Easily will reach 6 figures. My 914-6 was at $56k at this same point and ended at $82k. Can’t wait for the last 5 minutes especially when they keep adding 2 minutes to the auction end time on each late bid.

Well done, Frank!
Thanks to all who participated.
I need to follow this up with a "BaT Case Study".
It would seem BaT (or PCA) is truly the best way to sell a 911. (Even Sepia cars.)
Yeah let's... I'm in the middle of it myself (with a non-porsche), and it's definitely educational...
The very long lead time before posting the car was disheartening... The back and forth emails with them about the same questions over and over, somewhat disappointing.
Their attempt to lower my reserve was amusing... following the auction and comments is fun as hell though, though I wish more people would bid, and earlier, at least versus the comments.... interesting to experience the other side of this ! You did well, and it seems mostly at the last minute (good to know)!
congrats !
