I have an interesting BaT story to share while we're all chiming in.

In 2019, I listed my Guards red on tan 1987 Porsche 928 S4 Manual.
This was a car I bought for $16.5k, that had been sitting for years in a private collection and really I overpaid for it based on its rough condition. I decided to sell it after doing nothing to it and owning it for over a year. I set my BaT reserve for $15.5k which I felt was really fair based on the condition, work it needed but also it represented a somewhat rare model as 90% were automatics.

Well Mike Tyson punch me in the face and call me Buttercup, all the 928 experts came out of the woodwork and really chomped the car alive based on what it needed and all the catch-up maintenance, it was unbelievable, even the BAT auctioneer private messaged me on "keeping my composure". Anyway bidding flat lined at $12k. The highest offer off BaT was a local restaurant owner who offered $13k (he was lurking on my BaT auction).

I licked my wounds, and then decided to make this car really awesome, I addressed EVERYTHING on this car, I even fixed the R12 AC, new leather, new suspension, new brakes you name it...I figured I had about 700-hours of my time on it. I asked BaT if I could re-list it as it was basically a whole different car and they flat denied me.

With heart in my hand, I decided to list it on Rennist and sold it for than my asking price in less than 1-day. It was a wild ride and goes to show good cars will sell.
