zr1 #729 sold
just reporting that my bid did not get in on time with 1 second remaining I bid 12500.00 for a 1990 zr1 61800 miles red on tan on ebay. car is 100% stock with stock rims and goodyear gsc tires in very very nice condition.. car sold at 11,700.00. I raced home got on the internet my computer took a while to get in and found the car with 6 seconds remaining.. scrolled down to place the bid, placed it, and hit enter with 1 second left and the screen froze. I thought it would come back and tell me I won the car... it came back with the bid is closed. 11700.00 high bidder.
car was in north carolina. Hate to lose a deal like that. I could have flipped that car here for 15 or 16k easy. Hate to see these cars go so low.  ed ramos #3028 |

Re: zr1 #729 sold
what do you mean it is not sold? 729 auction closed and sold at 11,700. He had a no reserve auction so he's got to let it go or be sued. I can not believe that the winner wouldnt pony up the 11.7k for that car. This was just car I happened to see the night before and remembered it would be sold today. when I checked this afternoon it was at 11.3k. I raced home but just missed it by 1 second because of my long boot up on my computer. I'd be happy to pay the 11.7 k for it or more. Oh well.

No, it's not sold much to my surprise. It's still available and can be bought for $14500

Re: zr1 #729 sold
well I am surprised. I am not in so much of a hurry to buy at 14.5k as I was at 11.7k. I want to know how the seller got out of the deal without legal issues? On this particular car I was looking to flip it but at 14.5 and shipping and taxes and tag will bring it close to 17k and now its not such a great deal at 62k miles. This car would have to sell for less for it to be a deal. It is a deal if someone were intent on keeping it but it wont be me. Thanks for the info.

Re: zr1 #729 sold
There are no legal issues with car sales on ebay.
It has become the norm for people not to pay and its sad.

Re: zr1 #729 sold
I cant believe that someone would not pay 11.7 k for that car. Absolutely ridiculous. There was plenty of meat on the bone on this one. I always thought that when bidding, unless you had a very good excuse, it was a binding contract. i feel those people who dont pay should be banned for a year on ebay and all the feedback taken away. it is a harsh punishment but then again not paying for something that you said you would pay for is pretty bad too.
