well Chuck, I felt the same way. But since the actual owner was a car
dealer who flips cars
all day, he went for the quick cash.
I practically begged him to let me market the cars after we got them
running, I'm sure there was lots left on the table.
I felt successful by just getting him to let me sell the parts individually
instead of looking for a bulk buyer.
More people got access and I'm positive he collected more money, if only he
had listened to me, I think that was was at least another
60K available across the three cars,

Michael

     There is a difference between assisting a buyer (collector) and
     assisting the seller.
     While a "private sale" tends to be a good thing for the buyer
     (no competition, or less competition) I believe that a "private
     sale" is likely to
     not always obtain the "highest and best" price for the seller.
     This is kind of the whole basis for auctions isn't it?
     I'd suspect that although Mr. Shortt may have reached a quick sale
     for his seller,
     I suspect he may have 'left some money on the table'.
     If a car dealer bought, then we know the dealer thinks there is more
     money on the table.
