Yep, they seem to have expert-level turd polishers on staff. I passed on a car years ago, only to see it end up on BAT for more money, and with the issues I noted conveniently hidden and/or not photographed.

Totally. I am sure there are plenty of excellent cars that are honestly represented there, but they seem to have a few holes in the net. As mentioned, they are not the only ones. You should see some of the "gems" that roll through Barret-Jackson here in Scottsdale every year. Fools and their money...it will always be a thing, as long as the supply of uneducated and/or non-enthusiast check-writers doesn't dry up.
