I have been snooping around ebay the last few weeks seeing if there was anything to pick up for a deal. I picked 13 firebirds and put them on my watch list. 10 of the auctions have ended but not one reached reserve. Is the market slipping or are the sellers just hoping for an ebay home run? All of them were bid more than I wanted to pay. Some were restored cars some were parts cars. I couple were 400 cars and some were sprints. I called two sellers and I thought they were dreaming on the price and they did not make reserve. I am too cheap I guess but I don't think they realize how much it takes to finish a project car or that most of the time when you sell a finished plain Jane car you don't get your money back. It has been a big waste of time. I will not spend much time looking on ebay again. I have contacted sellers on a few Pontiac sites and am waiting for some info on some cars. If they do not pan out I think I might just step back for a while and see what happens.It seems very nice cars and / or rare cars keep selling and I think that will always be the case. I wonder if some of the more average cars are about to make a price adjustment?
