Man, times have changed! (Buyer's market)

[Zedder]

I had a call yesterday from a guy selling a '67 project car. He started to describe the car and mentioned a few enthusiasts that I knew that had already seen the car. We talked for a while and he mentioned what would have been a steal of a price a year or two ago and it hit me just how difficult things are right now. This car would have been bought and sold 2 or 3 times by now if it were 2005 or 2006. With all of the financial uncertainty right now, I'll likely pass too...man, how things have changed

I'm glad I sold mine when I did. I don't think I could sell it for half the price now.

I just wish I was in the position to pick something else up right now. There are some good deals to be had.

Just back to reality, economy was never that good and people and gov't were spending money that was not theirs. Good reality check. Problem is no one is buying and no one can sell, because banks ain't given and most, not all, can't buy without others money, even at half price. Weird.

Barrett/ Jackson at Vegas is sold out! Should be interesting.

Agree with Stuart. Economy has been artificially propped up for years with easy credit and this is the reckoning. The Michigan economy has downright sucked since I've lived here, nothing new. However, I have not seen prices appreciably lower (no more than 10-15%) on quality cars with paper - maybe the owners end up keeping them if they cannot get their price?

I said it a few months ago. "Where are all the great deals at". I sure can't find anyone giving stuff away at firesale prices. Please point me to some killer deals. I am ready to buy something!

Me too! Also,I have several people with cars i call religously,Ls6 chevelles,z28's and others they have had for many years and they will not sell them.One guy has been laid off and still will not sell. I still think the quality cars will bring good money.
