I missed this one when it came back on the 14th.  Another day and I could have escaped seeing it altogether.  Seller Jerry misclassified this sad 928 as an "Other" model.  Maybe Jerry is right about that.  Anyway, Jerry has run this one through at least once before. PLEASE SOMEBODY GIVE JERRY HIS $3K RESERVE!  Here are my comments from the first time.

Jerry may be real good at selling cars from his lot in Monroe, LA, but he seems a bit clueless on eBay.  He didn't list this in the proper eBay Motors category, so it will be hard for 928 nuts to find.  This car seems to have hit on some hard times, with the hood flying up and all.  Jerry, might want to stick with selling Duesenbergs and King Midgets to the local yokels.

Looks like a good deal for someone.  Missing a few pieces on the seats - maybe more missing elsewhere.  Glove box sags, but no cracks visible.  Need engine shots.  Super dark FL window tint.  Very low miles, if true.  Says some of the right things about service. - - - - $0 DISAPPEARED -

Oh, no.  Another car misclassified and not on eBay Motors.  Love the $1.00 minimum.  Actually, the car could be nice.  It has been extensively refurbished, so my guess is the mileage is high. - $0 $0 $2,750 $5,100 $5,850 $5,850

Back again.  Third time in 3 weeks. Previously, this car opened at $15K and was bid to $16.6K.  On re-list, the seller raised the minimum to $19K, which made no sense to me and it loks like others agreed, as he got zero bids.  This time he picked the middle ground, but still too high.

Here's what I said the first time:

Assuming this car has been maintained and not messed with, I'm interested.  Have a feeling this seller is fishing for big bucks, though.  This car looks nice, with molding delete, lumbar seat, nice paint and interior combination, polished rims.  A nice 82K 88 5 speed should bring about...$17.5K

SOMEBODY PLEASE BUY THIS HEAP SO I DON'T HAVE TO LOOK AT IT ANY MORE!

3rd time through eBay in as many weeks.  He's sweetened the pot with a 1 year warranty.  Uhuh. Most likely worthless.

Here's what I said the first time through two weeks ago:

"Low miles but.... funky steering wheel cover, torn shift boot, fairly gross pin stripe decoration, obviously cheap re-spray with gross orange peel (look at fender over wheel) and poor masking, black side strip, gloss black rear bumper pads, overdone window tint, ride height looks wrong (too high in front).  Ugh.  On top of that he thinks a 928 is a 911/Carrera.  Good luck."

417K miles!  Not a record but definitely way up there.  Love the description - one almost irrelevant line, and what is a "porsche Crest Factory Pick-up"?

When it comes to cars and trucks, Southerners are brief and to the point - "runs good."

Today is recycling day.  Here's what I said the first time (this is getting too easy):

Green on choco brown.  Says paint is tired and seats have no tears, but trim is wrinkled and I would expect lots of other similar defects.  Accident report in 98.  Seller bought at auction last month.  Seller is small-time eBay dealer with very little feedback.  I must be missing something as this car is drawing more bids than nicer looking cars.

This reminds me of the first time I went out on a job as a young kid to mow someone's lawn, and my first customer asked me how much I wanted.  Not really sure what to ask, I blurted out what in retrospect was an exorbitant amount.  The customer looked a bit shocked, paused for a second, then said, "Well, you've got to start somewhere."  I finished the job, got paid, but was never asked back.

So, starting at a $17.5K minimum seems a little aggressive, but this is a low-mile, full leather 5-speed that has been goosed a bit, although the 370 HP isn't fully explained.  Nice big brakes and wheels, and lots of other work has been done.  Says never raced. Umm.

tonybcool is selling his black-black 85 for "under NADA loan value".  "Wife says the care must go."  There is another way this could be resolved.  :-)

Looks like all the right work has been done.  I guess the rough weather/sun got the carpets; otherwise replacement is a bit odd for a low mile car.  However, the dash was done as well, so it must have sat outside.  He thoroughly describes very minor remaining defects.

Ah, Phil's baby!  The opening minimum is very low.  Of course, the reserve could be anywhere.  Will it make it to...$18.5K, my estimate?  Why not more? Well, the ad should have large pics or direct links to them to be more effective.  You can see the large ones here (see volume 6).

Addendum (12/11):  Phil added some large photos and links to more of them.  Bidding is going very well, I think.
