[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 5924062, member: 9628"] Bruce - I feel dumb!! I realized that I know who had this $90K+ 2000R listed on eBay!! The seller called me this afternoon. I have talked with this person before about topics discussed on this forum, but did not put the eBay user name together with this person. This person rarely posts on this forum, but does monitor it regularly. At first when I mentioned possible Cobra R's being under the covers, in the background of the eBay picture they thought I knew they were the seller, but later in the discussions, by my questions and comments about this auction they realized that I might not have put 2 and 2 together, I had not. To answer some of the questions about this $90K 2000 Cobra R............ The car had a $100K reserve, the seller pulled it off when it hit $90,100. $75K or so was the "expectation" for this car and the seller thought that there was no way it would get anywhere near $100K. The car was pulled early because "if " it did hit $100K reserve, the seller is a person who would honor the winning bid, but did not at all expect it to get near that point, and really did not want, or expect it to meet reserve, but it was getting too close to chance. This is not the original owner of this car. It was not originally sold at Jackie Jones, however the car has come across the floor carpet protectors at some point in the last 8 years, however the current owner does know Jackie Jones personally, and has mentioned their relationship in past conversations with me. There was no shill bidding involved as the car was really not expected to get anywhere near its high bid (K90K+) before it was pulled. Basically, I was told, "I want to make sure I can feed my children if I needed to sell some cars". Them chillens, would be eating well!! Filet and/or Lobster anyone? To the person/seller who called me, thanks, I had not put 2 and 2 together relating you and this eBay auction. :thumbsup: R [/QUOTE]
