    Isn't that 18% split between the buyer and seller,so the seller netted a little more than your calcs? Maybe I'm wrong since I never went to one.

    Gary-- it is 8 from the seller to BJ and 10 from the buyer to BJ.

    Since the selling price they post is inflated by the buyers 10% you had to back out the 10% and the 8% to get to the buyers net and then the 2500 for travel, transporter and lodging and registration.

    If you bid by phone it is 12% for the buyer.

    Phill he will be in at least 44k by the time he gets home. For a number of states add another 5.6% (2K) for sales tax.

    I'm just shaking my head on the prices for the GS's as compared to other comparable makes. I thought this '70 Stage 1 would have brought more. I was interested in that car until I found my '72 Stage 1 convertible. I will be watching for the '69 Stage 1 silver convertible to see how it does as I considered that one too.

    That gold Stage car was beautiful on TV! A great buy at $38k! Seller probably was pissed. Now way would I take a nice car there since they don't allow reserves.

    I calculate the Seller nets about 32.5K.

    Thats about what I thought it would go for,35-40k.Even though I love Buicks,they don't demand or command big $$$$$$$$.Personally,don't think GSX's should be six figure cars,how they ever rose to the asking prices now by sellers is beyond me,somewhere around 60-80K would be an appropriate dollar.Same goes for GNX's,to young yet,would'nt pay over 50k for one.Hindsight,in 03 had the chance to by a 9k mile one for $28,500.

    I agree, I think Speed plans it this way. I can hear them now " Time for a commercial Bob, Ok its just a Buick, go ahead, cut to commercial"

    Louie,

    You are correct. So much for wishful thinking.
