Auctions are amazing because you can get insane deals on some stuff, and other stuff goes for insane money. And sometimes the things that go for big money aren’t worth it. On numerous occasions I’ve been at an auction and seen an item sell for a price that would have bought a new one. Other times you get to buy something for a fraction of what it is really worth. And then there are things worth a jillion dollars that go for a jillion dollars. That’s what happens at a big auction like Barrett-Jackson, Bohner, Mecum, etc, and at Mecum in Kissimmee big, big, money was spent. Check it out.
