Finding Corvette Sold Results>Mecum Vs. Barrett-Jackson

[Larry E.]

Maybe it is just me but finding results for cars sold is so much easier with the
Mecum Website then Barrett-Jackson. JMHO-Barrett-Jackson site has me running
in circles all the time. Have given up looking for a certain model/year. No Problem
with Mecums site. Anybody
else having similar problems?? Thanks in advance-Larry

Larry, you made me curious. I went to their website and registered. I signed on and looked at the collector cars for Wednesday. Looks like it shows the sale price with buyers premium on every car. Try again. It took 5 minutes.

Same here. I found that the results refresh sooner on the B-J site as I watch online than they did watching Mecum.

Ok; got registered. How does one search for results for the auction going now(Scottsdale) for a certain model??
eg.>1966 Corvette. Tried to search and it gives me the whole lineup for a certain day which I could care less.
Thanks-Larry

Just MHO but the prices are worthless information without see the car first hand. The quality is all over the map some are real nice and well done others are thrown together just to pass over the auction block. Unless one see the cars to connect the price with the actual quality of the car it is just a number.

I’m now watching the BJ auction and the prices seem up there. Dave Kindig was said to indicate the well done resto mods were going to retain their value.

Just before you see the car list there is a search box. you can type in a car auction # or a car description that you are looking for. IE 66 corvette 427

I agree it dose seem people now want factory correct origional cars that are well done or high end Resto rods with the latest Corvette engines. Ones with carburetors don't do well. A 67 one that I guy I know got 300,000.00 for his that sold last night.
