November 29, 20195 yr comment_588397 I'm new to auctions in general and would love to see this sell high. I was a little shocked at the 21% buyers premium though! Wow! That's gotta hurt the bidding value.... Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/63201-auction-for-my-72-240z/#findComment-588397 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow! That's gotta hurt the bidding value.... Yes, but I’m not being charged a listing fee or a sales percentage. Mecum charges both, and a 10% buyer’s premium as well. So that allows me to set the opening bid lower and with no reserve.

November 29, 20195 yr comment_588400 The suggested items at the bottom are interesting. Janet and I can take pot shots at each other in our his and her man cave this Christmas. If you want to surprise us this Chrismas, we are more of a Johnny Seven gun-friendly family... vintage lawn darts are ok too.

November 29, 20195 yr Author comment_588401 They definitely have some interesting items at the auction. It’s a Houston institution. I’ve bought a few really great pieces of art there.
