RE: Mopar Prices, Auto Auctions, Appraisals

[Jeff Adams <ledman_70@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I used to be an anitque dealer and have been to dozens of auctions, so I 
have seen firsthand what "auction frenzy" is like. Even done it a couple 
times when another dealer pissed me off! I thought a good bit of the time 
people were paying more than the going price on some pieces, so i'm sure it 
happens in the automotive world, too.
