Re: [FWDLK] eBay Motors: DeSoto 4 door sedan over $32K

It's worth what it brings. It sounds like he has a shill bidder, and at some point they'll not bid and the winner was bid way up. If the last shill bid doesn't get -bid, they can offer it to the next (legitimate) bidder, as a second offer opportunity.
I think the problem is that some of these boomers grew up with not much interest about cars, and now buy "an old car" just to enjoy. Us old farts grew up wanting and driving only coupe and 'verts, wouldn't be caught dead in a "all door". So they have the most value, and the also-rans are bringing more money due to the buyers not caring about style and the lack of reasonable coupes and 'verts.

So if this high bidder is a scam, and this car makes it's third appearance on eBay then what do you guys think a car like this is worth?

The collector car price guide shows a #2 car @ $11,900 and a #1 car @ $17,000.00 this car is very nice but not a true #1 car, maybe 13 years ago but not now...
