Does anyone have any experience selling a car via auction? Specifically, I am thinking about selling my six again and Gooding & Co could take it in their Scottsdale auction in January.
I advertised my car many months ago for $95k, and had lots of interest and someone bid it to $85k on eBay, but a deal was very made. I haven't been in a big hurry since I still really like the car. Gooding charges $1000 to place it in the auction, plus they take 8%-10% of the sale price. Plus the buyer pays a 12% premium. And they require no reserve for anything less than $250k. The rep I spoke with said the "expected price" in the catalog would be $80k-$100k. Hmmm... So... suppose it sells for $100k in auction, I take home $91k best case, and the buyer pays $112k. What's the best way to sell a six at the moment? BAT? eBay? Auction? 914world? Other? Thanks, Steve Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() |

I think that BAT is a very good place to sell. You do not need to deliver a car to an auction and return it to yourself if it does not sell.
If your car is super nice and shows well this is a good place. People car see all your pictures and video of your car. It gives them time to Ck it out. there will be lots of feedback from people looking at the car like guys from 914World pointing out every little thing.
