There were 600 car dealers at the auction that day, and there was only one other person that looked at it and bid on it when it went across the auction block, if it hadn't been for him I probably would have got it for $1000.
I'm not usually in the right place at the right time, but when it does happen it usually works out pretty well!

Man oh man oh man, what a deal! I have always wanted to do the car auction thing, but I think you need a "nose" for a good deal. I think I would get snookered. My only "grace" is that I think I would go for the boring-car that (hopefully) no one wants.
