Interesting that this would show up on BAT right now. I just happen to have a Fjord Green Vintage Speedster that I'm currently preparing to sell, but mine has bee hives.
Oooo, bee hives! Vince'll buy it!
Reserve not met at 276k. Bummer.
I’m thinking BAT may not be the place for an original Speedster. Too many bargain hunters. The place to top dollar is the high end auctions. R&M, Southeby’s, etc.

I'm not sure I would agree. I haven't seen any "bargains" on BaT. Usually stuff gets bid up to astronomical amounts and then you have to add on the buyer's premium. An Emory Coupe sold on here for $500K which is probably $100K or more over what it was new.
I would agree with Robert. There aren’t many bargains to be had on BAT anymore, and yes, the 5% fee adds to the premium. That Emory outlaw was purchased by the owner of WeatherTech - he has quite the impressive bid history.

Yep. And when David MacNeil can pay $70 million before the buyer's premium for a 1963 Ferrari GTO, he can pay $500K for an Emory. And BTW, the car was for his 24yo daughter. It may not have started out that way but allegedly she "claimed" it as hers.

I would have to agree with @Robert M. Case in point, this 1991 Cadillac.

Or the 1991 Ford Bronco that sold for $91,000 (due to its exceptionally low miles).
@Ryan (formerly) in NorCal You really should be slapped for the naming go this thread. I thought you were selling your car on BaT.
$276k plus 5% WOW
5% up to 100k, so max buyer fee is 5 grand.
