Letting it go to a new home. Please share the listing to get it in front of people. People are not often looking for one so it needs put in front of them.

Thanks for the help

It looks like you've got several people interested in it! I hope you get what you wanted for it!

Saw the pics yesterday. Very nice. The bidders have probably been looking for one like this for quite a while. Good luck!

Wow ! $20.000 and still three days left .
I'd say you have done well for yourself . Especially considering the limited market for these cars .

jensenracing77

Not much action for the past three days but it ends tonight. Maybe I will get some last minute action on it?

tru-blue 442

You have got some bidders there with some high feedback who have been
doing E-bay for a while. I bet the last hour will be exciting, and that last few second snipe!
Good luck with it Eric, I will be watching. How many watchers do you have? It doesn't show on my end.

It says 191 watchers just below where you place your bid.

jensenracing77

191 watchers but I have posted this on Facebook and asked that people share it. It got shared MANY times and many of the shares got shared. I would bet the vast majority of those are just people curious. That and nosy neighbors and family, lol.

These cars are not on most peoples radars so I shared it many places and had them share to get it in front of more people.

Eric,


I've sold a fair amount of stuff on eBay over the years, including several cars. Your comments in post #7 is pretty much the way it always works - at least fro me. There will usually be pretty good activity for the first few days and then things typically get pretty slow until near the end of the auction. Then, with the number of watchers you have and the bidding activity so far, you should get a flurry of action starting in the last half hour or so of the bidding. BTW, scheduling your auction so it ends on a Sunday evening is really smart. Most people are back at home by then and weekend activity i pretty much over with so bidders can more easily spend time on their computers.


Best of luck.

I get really nervous when I am bidding on things at the last minute but have never been nervous at the end of my listings. For some reason I am shaking this time. Under an hour left

I am watching, Curious to see what happens. I hope you get what you want.

jensenracing77

What I want is for it to be gone and that has already been met. Anything else past this point will go to the restoration of our 62 Jetfire 4 speed car.

Wow, those last few seconds...BOOM! Congrats!

jharsh

Yep, that was interesting.

Now the cool story. About mid week, as some of you know, I blocked a bidder that joined eBay that day. I had blocked him and sent him a message to contact me so I could be sure he was a serious person and if I could even tell if he was. That guy knew who I was and called me on the phone Friday night. Turns out that he owns a former car of mine and I had talked to him a year ago trying to get him to sell it back to me. He would not do it and was now interested in this Jetfire. He ended up being the high bidder so he is coming out to pick it up. I told him I will just call him first from now on and let him buy whatever car I am selling, lol. Now he owns two of my former cars.

tru-blue 442

Sweet.

marxjunk

i never block anyone unless they have neg feedback...you never know who it is

Great Eric, Looks like a good deal for buyer and seller!

jensenracing77

I agree. I am pleased and he said it was a car he has always wanted.

70-442-W30

Congrats Eric. I was out of town when the auction ended but returned to see it ended well.

jensenracing77

I think it was a fair price for both me and the new owner both. Now on to restoring the 62
