For all interested, the Scottsdale auction started today and is now underway on the Speed channel. Even for folks not interested in vehicles, this is an eye-opening, money-driven, jaw dropping source of entertainment that rocks!
At 5:45 PST today, a 1960 Jeep Surrey sold for $47,500! Can you say i-n-f-l-a-t-i-o-n? LBR
 

Yeah, I always catch Barrett Jackson.

I love everypart, except when the lymie broadcaster on Speed drooles over the british cars like he's gonna just lose it.....ugh!

Its a awesome thing to see those guys dropping bucks like that.
An B-J keeps, what like 6% of the total sale?
 
I think B-J gets something like 16%...8% is seller's fee and 8% is buyer's fee. Also if the car is sold and stays in Az, there is another AZ state tax of around 8-9% or so (help from the Az. croud here). If the car is sold to another state with no sales tax, then the buyer doesn't pay that tax. We're all in the wrong business, eh? LBR
 

Rumor has it that the $47,500 Jeep Surrey was purchased by a lady named Cindy McCain.....wife of John McCain........Az. Senator John McCain.....not 100% sure of this, but tis what we were told. LBR
