Sound familiar to anyone??

I could swear I've seen this car come up at least twice before with a 5-figure reserve and now it's a no reserve? Anybody ever check on this car? STrange color combo which I kind of like, but don;t want to go all the to Fl if it's a piece of dog-meat.....

Looks like this is the opposite scam where someone puts up a car with no reserve, but ends the auction early if it doesn't meet their "hidden reserve". Why can't people just put their minimum reserve as their opening bid on a car like this? Especially dealers who want top dollar for the vehicle. It only hurts the serious bidders. Personally I do not bid on more than one car at a time because I do not want to have to back out of the lesser deal if I happen to be winning two cars at the same time. I have even passed on bids because I was winning on a different car, only to have the jerk end the auction 6 hours early. I miss the days when Ebay was for selling instead of a place to advertise like it is now.
