I figured as much - I meant that as a sarcastic observation that these auctions seem to be attended by guys with more dolars than sense (or perhaps a fat wallet to compensate for other inadequacies). Nonetheless, these auctions, and the "realtiy" shows which demonstrate "professionals" purchasing wrecks at jacked-up prices, using all-night thrash session labor to "rebuild" & flip a car for a profit most guys don't see in two months paychecks has led to every hillbilly in the country thinking their $400 parts truck (or car) is "rare" and worth the $4k they're asking for it.
