Sometimes when a car doesn't sell at auction he'll take it back home and sell it privately. Seems as though prices are on a downward trend and he is not bringing in the big dollars as in the past. I think this is a good thing as the market is coming back down to earth and you don't have to be a high-dollar collector to afford some of these cars once again.

I always have better luck privately retailing than any auction format.............

I bet part of it is for the show, much more drama at an auction than an ebay listing.

I'm pretty sure buying/selling is not Wayne Carini's main source of income. He's not relying on the car biz to feed his family, it's just a high priced hobby for him.

I am a commercial actor and three days on a set (in a bar) for a beer ad has already paid over $150k in residuals. Commercial acting is the way to go!
