Spoke with owner/seller this a.m.
He is very well-versed and in the know
He tells me that he has a guaranteed offer on the table for $150,000 cash so if the auction does not exceed that amount, he will be taking that person’s standing cash in a bag offer
Steve: This seller is putting himself in a bad position.
If someone truly offered him $150,000 in cash he'd be best to get a small deposit via paypal and then end the auction.
Then let the buyer show up with the $$$$..
If he doesn't end the auction, the high bidder is then informed after the bidding ends that the seller wants "cash".
What happens then if the guy is in Waco TX but is just told that Mr. Michigan wants cash for his purchase?
He has the $$$ but no way to get that $$$ to him.
Also, if the high bidder is sincere he's then told someone offered "more" so his bid isn't honored .
I should also point out in the Ebay advertisment it says "Payment: wire to my account"...
And I know my Shelby's.
If someone truly offered him $150,000 I suggest he makes the deal and ends the auction at once.
Just my .02
