Cautionary Notes for Auction Bidders

[cheveslakr]

I've got a car I'm considering selling, it's a high end chevelle. These are my observations....and please comment if they're wrong or skewed.
A car that hits the market without being well known may have a handicap with the field of buyers.
A car that doesn't have lineage needs more thorough build history, ie, pics of the build.
A car that hits a high exposure marketplace will need to lay out ALL the cards and be well prepped, or it may suffer from that sale, or a no-sale on the next go-around.
There is a stigma amongst auction buyers that if a car suffered from a no-sale or a stagnation on a on-line venue, that the gallery has spoken, and it won't achieve anything beyond that.
That last statement is something I've always felt, that there's a local frenzy of buyers that vet a new listing, and if it's still up for a few weeks, most buyers will cool off.
