Hi Tom,
Jurgen here, I am the one who actually sold Gramps on consignment. So by your definition, I am fair game, as I am working as a broker.
Now after all is said and done on this, I still think you should at least acknowledge, that your idea of the market was inaccurate and my was correct. Granted, you never said Gramps is a bad car, but that is not the point. What you did do was creating a notion that some greedy dealer is out on a roll and the car isn't worth it. You should have known, that this can actually hurt the sale of a car tremendousely and I just wonder if that is what the members of this board should do to fellow members.
In the end, all of us take advantage of constant and stable prices and we should be happy if things keep going. Many things don't in todays world.
By saying the things you said, you had at least a large percentage of this board convinced, that this is a 50k car.
Well, it seems the market is of a different opinion isn't it?
Whoever called Gramps an average car with no seats let me respond:
I am brokering classic cars for a little while now and would like to make this announcement.
If any of you out there owns a rustfree, #matching S Coupe (1967-1973) and the car is as nice and original (including paint)as Gramps and you agree to let it go in the 50's, pleeeeease call me!! Now!!
Oh, one last word, yes, Brians Patrick is a wonderful car and Brian did extremely well on the purchase. Just don't think that this is the market.
The market is, what someone is willing to pay at a given time for a merchandise.
And Gramps had at least two parties willing to pay for it's condition.
Case rested.
