They tried to manipulate me not that long ago to set the reserve ridiculously low on my very mint 1987 Porsche 928 S4 manual. I wanted the reserve set at $25k, they refused and said the highest they would go would be $10k, I went back and forth with them and eventually told them to go fork themselves.

The reason they wanted the reserve set low? So they could move widgets, make money and satisfy their investors\backers. They don't give a rat's a$$ to the little guy who has spent or rather sacrificed years of time and thousands upon thousands to build that one car. Demuro used to be a regular car guy like us, now he is a corporate giant.

I sincerely hope I do not ever meet Demuro in person, I might have to drop the Will Smith on him.
Not defending their tactics at all, but if you have faith in their market reach the car should sell near market, if you don't have faith in there reach shouldn't use them anyways.
