Barrett $$$ Jackson it's all about the money. The buyer pays a 10% commission and the seller pays 8%. The buyer get to tell his local D.M.V. how much he paid for the vehicle and the buyer gets screwed a second time. If your car goes to auction on prime tv (Friday or Saturday) time it's big time bucks up front. The all day beer pass (unlimited beer) is about $150. per day not including tip. Even in my prime beer drinking days I couldn't consume a fraction ($$$) of that. I went to Scottsdale in 2006 and I got to see the money machine in action first hand. B.T.W. if carfax was around 50 or 60 years ago what do you think the history of some of these cars would be??? That's a scary thought...
