I struggled with that for a long time. The car was actually Lemans Blue longer than it was Fathom Green.

My wife kept pushing for the green I think it was because she knew I would be more inclined to sell it if it was green than blue!!!

I didn't mean to imply there was organized shill bidders. Just meant that there are lots of people on Ebay that bid and have no ability or intention to buy hence they are not real bids. Happens all the time.

It happened to me on ebay more times than I would care to think about. I will say I have met the worst and the nicest people by dealing on ebay.

But it is no different then a regular Car Auction. I have seen curtains bidding. I had a friend that knew the auctioneer and while we were standing watching a Packard go up for auction the auctioneer called him by name and thanked him for his bid, 3 times and $100,000 increase. He did not even have a bidding account!!!! This was with one of the top Auto Auction houses!!!!!

Well, it made it to your $210K range which seems to be a decent number for the car. Hopefully one of the bidders will negotiate with you and get close enough to your selling price. And let us know if it sells so we'll know to look for it with fresh new documentation at BJ sometime in the future.
