I’m amazed at how these auctions come up with more and more cars, or are they just recycling the same ones over and over? Just curious.

Mecum pics
 
Thanks Rick for the great pics! Nice to see some of the cars at Mecum since we can no longer watch the auction on Motortrend! Mecum has moved their TV coverage to ESPN+ which is another subscription streaming service which I refuse to pay for! I pay enough for cable tv and internet already and I'm not putting any more money in Dana Mecum's pocket, he's got plenty of money the way it is and I've totally lost all respect for Mecum for making this greedy move! I hope that many of the members here feel the same way I do and refuse to sign up for ESPN+ and maybe some day they will move the auction coverage back to a free channel that you don't have to pay extra for!!

I'm using my $5/Month ($59/Year) APOLLO Streaming Service to access
ESPN+ ............

Most of my contacts pay Hundreds every month for cable services....
I pay cocast $50/month for Cable/Internet and STREAM Everything
via APOLLO for $59/Year

I know your skeptical and I have no credability..........
Thank Me later

I spent most of the day there today. That 65 wagon with the 409 is sure a cool car. I was surprised how low the price was when the bidding got hung up but in the end it sold for what I thought was reasonable.

And that Canadian 66 Caprice 396 4 speed is sure a cool car!

I have major auction data for '69 Camaros back many years. 44% of them have been auctioned previously. Glendale is no different; 9 are re-runs.

There is a Z/28 currently on eBay, been auctioned seven times. A COPO is on its eighth auction. Some of these are flips, can be quite profitable.

I believe Mecum has a re-run option for cars that don't make reserve.
