The reason I ask, and I know I am beating a dead horse here and this is not a knock against BJ or anyone who buys and\or sells there, but I just get hung up on the fees BJ charges. I would much rather apply that 16 or 18% towards the buyer and seller and not pay Keith.

Any insight would be great.

Thanks Rob,
Chris

Who is Keith ? I have no problem with them getting their 16%. They advertise all over the world, bring in buyers from all over the world and have 1000 cars in one place and they are all going to sell...Ask me again though in 3 weeks after I have sold 3 cars there..at no reserve....

Charley,

Hope you are well. Keith is Kieth Jackson. Not like I know him.

I agree with all of your points; BJ does bring in genuine buyers from all over. That said, I just personally have trouble with the fees. Wish there was a better way. Like a lateral-g auction?

Good luck Charley, I am sure you will do well.

Barrett-Jackson is Craig Jackson.......

You could easily spend the 10% premium you are charged flying all over the country looking for a car to buy. Barrett-Jackson has all the sellers haul them to Scottsdale for you. You can see 1000 cars for sale. It would take years to go all over the country to look at those same cars. Just trying to put it in perspective. Same thing with selling a car. How many tire kickers do I have to go thru just trying to sell one car. There really are some great cars there. If you have money burning a hole in your pocket, book a flight and see if there is something you like. Factor in the 10% in the price you will pay and don't go over that amount. Why worry about what the other guy is making ? Worry about if you are getting a good deal on what you want. There are plenty of good deals and if I was in your position I would absolutely be there. Supposed to be a killer Pro-Touring Mopar at Russo-Steele..

That's my thought as well. I don't mind someone making a buck on me as long as the transaction makes sense. You see a car you want, you decide what you can afford and that's it.

I think you will be just fine. BJ will have some buyers for the witch, count on that.

And this coming from a RE agent...

Sorry Todd, I had to.
