FOMO......Fear of Missing Out. some people read those ads and think they are gospel and have not felt the burn of a bad purchase and just click and bid without being fully informed. I have seen numerous six figure cars discussed on this site that trade hands but are known (to those that ask the question) to be clones or not #'s matching as claimed. In some ways, the people doing this keep the prices moving along and we all benefit. I had a friend that got burned years ago on a Nova SS bought out of Chicago. Was nowhere near what it was represented to be and he was told by an attorney to treat it like an expensive lesson. Litigating across two states would be more expensive than anything he would recoup.
