  1. I'm going big: Saw a 57 Isetta sell for over $24,000 so I'm thinking $226,000

    I figure my 59 isetta is worth maybe $3000

    Just skimming through real fast and see quite a few bids that are impossible to get. This is Barrett not ebay where you bid in odd dollars and cents. Looks like a few here never watched BJ before.

    They do show it every day a couple of times during airtime when they do the overhead scan shot of some of the cars. They also showed a closeup walk around of it last night and talked about it.

    And the logic of making an "impossible to get" bid obviously flew straight over your head.

    A guess is a ballpark and will end up being rounded up or down as required.
    For instance a guess of 82,500 would round up to 83,000.

    Or 82,400 would round down to 82,000.

    Given that there really is no benefit to guessing that way unless you want to beat someone else. 82,501 would beat 82,500 if the selling price was 83,000.

    Maybe you failed math. :D
