I am fairly certain the original ad text did not mention the added logos, only that they existed. Seems BaT made the change. |
Agreed, I didn’t see that text when it first popped up either. Unless others missed it to, BAT added it once the seller came clean. |
I read the text the day the listing posted. The BaT writeup did not mention the "added logos" by the seller initially. Now it's there. BaT would have been more transparent if they had stated "the seller added the logos and script prior to listing in an effort to gin up the hammer price."

I was watching that. Mind blown! Beautiful specimen. |
Wow, someone made some SERIOUS cash on that.
I'm not 100% sure but I believe the previous sales price was around 1/2 that.

Does that make this a good deal?... https://www.oldbug.com/roverbinz.htm

That truck seems far nicer and more desirable being press bumper.

my friend was going to put a bid in at $90k but was waiting to do so in the last couple of minutes. It went over that price within the last two minutes.
For the next 15 minutes after that it was RedLightRestoration and Eliottv battling out. Congrats to the new owner.

Agreed. Pressed bumpers for the win.

the Binz sold by Old Bug is FAR nicer and more desirable being suicide door and pressed bumper.
bidding quite often drives prices over what they're really worth.

Is there another person out there left to bid against the loser of the auction at that price point?

Agreed and I was watching with the intent to bid/buy but got caught up at work. Great bus for an even better price. |
