go to a farm auction . they will drive you nuts !
but BJ is to the collectors like the nationals are to hotrodders . it's their big event out west . many of them follow every auction. buy a car in dallas sell it in florida.

The three people roaming the grounds and previewing the cars each have their own reality car shows on Velocity. This doesn't make them experts by any means but makes them part of the show. I think the prices are way to high too, but then again I have to get a bank loan to make a down payment on a postage stamp.

there are people from all over the world converting their money into assets. russians are buying cars like the chinese were a while back.

Something you might not know about BJ, I had a friend who went down to Scottsdale to buy a AC cobra (original) we knew he had plenty of cash but where surprised to see him all over the TV, right up on stage several times. He told us that both the buyer and seller pay commission (everyone knows that) but if the car you buy rolls by on camera they tack on extra money for "air time" depending on how much air time it was on TV for!!! Every way you turn the auction company comes out on top!!
