Was interested in a car finishing tonight, and I note that the seller hasn’t answered a single question that potential bidders asked. Find the whole thing very odd.
Perhaps they just see its hit the reserve, so why bother?!
The idea of entering a car in a auction is so you don't have to get involved and let the auction do the work,Perhaps they just see its hit the reserve, so why bother?!
Also if the owner states something in print that is misleading either on purpose or innocently could have consequences
for them after the auction if the buyer is unhappy with his or her purchase
so i suppose the less said the better and as you say if it's made the reserve why bother and complicate things but do agree
it does look like there's something to hide
BaT ultimate success and major difference has been embracing comments from both the audience and the seller and it has helped them weed out cars/lots that are not what they say they are.
This means that site now has a reputation of trust - if the advert is up and stays up, it is likely to be an honest car and people then bid it up to better than average prices.
Having the ability to comment underneath the auction and not really using this feature seems a waste. Having questions go unanswered seems suspicious - they should probably just turn the comments off.

Probably doesn't get as much scrutiny on the £1-10k cars that Winchester Cars normally sells.https://www.romansofstalbans.co.uk/stock/ferrari/4...
The 458 looks tempting, some bold claims by the seller
- The car is in perfect condition and drives superbly
- All we know is that the car is in perfect condition.
- The service history is exceptional on this car
- The car looks and drives absolutely amazing
- The bodywork of this 458 Italia is in excellent order, with flush shut lines and no evidence of any prior accident damage

All good fun, I do know of a Speciale that was smashed up significantly on a test drive, never recorded (maybe didn't need to be as the value was high enough to be fair) and fixed up 'as new' with no evidence of prior accident damage... It had excellent bodywork because most of it was replaced - The car is in perfect condition and drives superbly
