You are one BRIGHT DUDE ! We dont have to bid on our own auctions. It does nothing and also scares away potential bidders. However, i do have better things to do than be like you and study all of someones auctions and try to find things to dog them on. I bought the car from Cats. Yes it was consignment, but sent NO money to anyone other than cats. Yes, i 100% did spend OVER $80k. Dont care if you believe it or not because it is true. Now, go save some of your money so you can buy the car on your avatar! That is/was Roys car. If you bought it, GREAT, but I DOUBT THAT! Get a LIFE!
Wait a minute GREAT..., I just read your profile.... YOU ARE A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL! Go play with the rest of the kids on the playground! Let me guess.... You are 16... Maybe 17??

Yeah, you are right. I am a student in high school. Isn't it sad that you are constantly getting bitch slapped on this site by a high school student? And isn't it sad that even a high school student can see through all of your BS? Hmmm

It ALL makes sense now. You are who you are. I dont have time to play Highschool games. I am sure you will post another comment after your mom picks you up from school! I am done with this. You are a complete waste of time. After looking at your history, it seems you have SOMETHING to say about EVERY POST that someone makes...... All I did was defend myself and my company about what you falsely advertised on this post and your comments just got out of hand and were just plain RUDE. Go back and read it.... for Example "just shut the hell up". I will close with this,.... if you wanna get somewhere in life, learn how to treat people with respect,.... learn to know the FACTS before you open your mouth. A simple, "I am sorry, I was unaware you paid $80k plus for the vehicle" would have made you look more like an adult rather than some kid playing on a computer. Say what you will. I will not post to this thread again. Best of luck to you in the future!

I can say personally that Shelby is very honest. He has a tremendous business in Jonesboro Arkansas.
I bought my 2006 Coupe back in January, my first purchase from Elite Motors, for a great price. Shelby also took one of my cars and sold it for me on the internet. When I purchased the Viper it was late in the day and I had a 7 hr journey back home. Shelby and his wife took me out for dinner and ask me to stay with them over night, which I did (Not to many would do this). He has kept in touch with me asking how the Viper was doing and offering to help any way he could.
Ive purchased a lot of cars in my lifetime but this was the smoohest best transaction that Ive ever made on a auto. I highly recommend Elite Motors.

Gene, thanks for the kind words, but we were the ones lucky to get a customer as Nice and Friendly as you! It was one of my most enjoyed sales! You are a very good person and I doubt anyone would say otherwise. Again, the Viper looks AWESOME! You have done everything just as I would have and with TASTE! I love seeing your PHOTOS on the site of your car. You take some of the BEST pics! Hope you have MANY more hapy miles in the viper and when you get ready for any type of new car, call me, I will get Whatever you want and beat ANYONES price!
I thought that car was Nick Cage's car in the picture?
Anyways, stop being a tool. The car was sold once already for $79,500 apparently. You obviously paid more for it for some reason and are now trying to sell it for more. Big fucking deal. I love it when someone comes here to try and justify their higher prices.

I'm not in highschool and I think you're acting foolishly. You mishandled this situation from the beginning. Out of respect for Blue Streak, who's a pretty cool old guy, I'm not going to get into it with you. However, I will offer you a piece of advice---when threads like this get nasty---don't respond. You can't win and all you'll accomplish is looking like an idiot and keep the thread at the top longer so everyone can see it. It runs out of steam without you. Get it?

Not trying to justify anything, was just pointing out that the information provided was incorrect. Funny how no one says anything about the fact that GREAT ONE started out saying it was sold for $78k. Then it was $79.5k (both of which are incorrect as far as what we paid). Had I been OFF on something $1500 you guys would have let me have it up and down and reemed me because I am a NOOB. Been on WAY too may of these forums and I see the same thing on every one. I am sorry to anyone I have offended, ETC ETC. Was no intention to treat anyone with anythi9ng other than respect. I do wish some people would turn the tables for a minute and look at it from my point of view. Anyway, its over. Best wishes to anyone and everyone on the forum!
So, did the car sell or not? The bid ended with the reserve not met.
Funny, The high bidder emails me early in the auction . I tell him the reserve (which was $87k) He bids $1 under the reserve and then NO CONTACT after the auction. Gets frustrating when people play games, but Oh well, I just get to play with it a little longer. And that does not bother me a bit because the car is SOOO much fun!
My guess is Shill Bidding. Check out the "stats" on the high bidder.

Strange. It sure would seem like the bid was pushed up to where one bid would win the car, and then it didn't receive a bid. Makes you wonder none the less.
