As you can see this car is already over 100k,

Is the Berger COPOs more attractive than the "regular COPOS"?

That has got to be the coolest car I have seen in a while. Great color combo. Love the Glacier Blue with the endura bumper. Hopefully someone from the site will grab it so we can see it at SCR7. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

wonder why so many bids were made in a row by the same person.

[JChlupsa]

The bidder your talking about is a member here my guess is he wants the car but alll the same its none of our business why he placed them

[Belair62]

Looks like he is just trying to play it smart and creep the bid up in small increments is all...this car will go high so not a good idea to go all in at once !

[Born30YrsLate]

Isn't that how proxy bidding works....you put in your max amount and every time someone puts in a bid that isn't higher than yours, you overtake their bid amount each time until some one out bids your max bid at the time...

[Belair62]

Could be that too !

[gemleeus]

maybe he'll get the car, several days left, wish him well.

[mc25t190]

why step over the highest bid at one time!

[gemleeus]

its just strange how all that works, he probably does have it on auto to a certain amount. it was bidding about every 15-20 seconds for a while there.

[Belair62]

More fun to creep up on it eh !

[Unreal]

It's actually GTOman who put in a proxy bid. Then every time MC29 tried a higher bid, the computer automatically bid the next increment for GTOman. Once MC29 exceeded GTOman's max bid, he became the high bidder. Notice that GTOman then put in a higher bid, and MC29 snuck up on him again.
Once the bidding is over, and you can see the actual bids, it's easier to understand. But you know two things.... GTOman's tactics are to put in a significantly higher bid, and MC29's tactic is to try to "just" overbid the current high bid. Oh yeah, we know one other thing...both guys want the car!
Ain't ebay fun!!

[yountto]

Since the bid increments are 100.00 that would tell you there are 4 bidders over 109,800 w 4 days to go...that means that either the seller has revealed the reserve and a few bidders are bidding because they know they are safe from reaching it,or it means id like to invite them to a poker game......

Will we now start to see COPO prices in the 110 - 140 range, and YENKO prices in 150 - 180 range???

The 69 Berger COPO's were double COPO's with slogan as "prescribed power by Berger". Berger also had a Hi-Perf catolog and sales department. I understand only 50 Bergers were built, therefore are much more rare than a 69 Yenko Camaro, which was merely a double COPO also. Of course other Dealers sold even less than Berger and Yenko, but weren't as recognized through National advertising and sales programs.

[SuperCars]

Ha-Ha, I know there's the connection of Yenko fame that is there. But I had to say that Berger had an extra program in the COPO production as well.

Where are you Dennis Barker, here's your chance to get on your soapbox!

[yountto]

Notice the seller dropped the price so that the next bidder meets reserve...Maybe he doesnt want the bidders to keep bidding against each other! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

[GTO_DON]

IF GTOMAN8 WAS REAL HE WOULD CRACK THE RESERVE,WOULDN'T YOU THINK GUYS?? HE JUST BOUGHT THAT 67 RS-SS FOR 65K LAST WEEK ACCORDING TO HIS BID HISTORY http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gifBUT YOU NEVER KNOW I GUESS. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gifLOOKS LIKE HE'S A CORVETTE GUY.

A good card player wont show his hand until called!

Maybe it is a vinyl seat delete triple COPO???? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[bkhpah]

I am fairly sure that not all the Berger cars were double COPO's. I know they sold a few RS models as well...BKH

[gemleeus]

wonder what happen to the bidding?

[x44d80]

I was watching this auction and it closed without a win? For days the next bid by 1 dollar would meet the lowered reserve but nobody bit. I don't get it.

[Belair62]

Anyone know if it sold off e-bay ?

[Jeff H]

Makes you wonder how serious the bidders were if they knew what the reserve was and didn't really want to pay $110K when it was dropped back down. I think the Brown RS/COPO sold for $135K at BJ auction so this car looks like a deal at $110K. If only I had $109K I could borrow....

[KLONECO]

[yountto]

Al, Rumor has it you put up the 1.00 the high bidder was short so you could tell everyone you are part owner of a copo. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
