I've had a good and bad experience at this auction.
About 6 or 7 years ago there was a '69 L34 RS/SS Convertible owned by Legendary that I was interested in. The car bid up to more than it was worth in a matter of minutes but I never saw anyone place a bid. It sold, but I never saw to whom. Next month it was back at Legendary still for sale. I called about the car because I was still interested and was told that the deal fell through.
I did buy my '69 Z28 at this auction a few years later. The car had No Reserve, and they ran it through so fast I almost didn't get to bid on it. I got the car for a decent price and still have it.
I have been to this Auction for the last 7 years and have come to the conclusion the whole thing is a scam.
