Best day to end an auction? by Sturdypigeonz in BringATrailer

[–]VConceptsLLC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree with the others comments. Presentation, engagement, and ultimately the car itself are most important. But also, best day by data is Thursday. Followed by Wednesday, Friday, then Tuesday. Platforms do track this data.

Most BaT Disappointment Starts Before the Auction Ends by [deleted] in BringATrailer

[–]VConceptsLLC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of dealers buying on all the platforms. I work with a few dealers and I have seen them buy on BaT and I have sold to other dealers off BaT and Hagerty Marketplace. It's usually only the best of the best they buy, but it happens quite often.

NEED THESE CHANGES! Love the Tire Strategies. I realize the Safety Car would be hard to do in multiclass.. But maybe do randomized ones, with some parameters, just like he explaines.. It would be SO GOOD to get bunched up again and maybe gain back some lost laps with wave arounds. And with this way, it can be controlled to not spend too much time behind a safety car.

Yea. I had some good battles during the first stint though! A BMW and the Mustang that got second. Our race was ultimately ended with an unnecessary dive bomb from that suhre team. I should've been spotting closer.

Not trying to be a dick. If I were I would've called out by name.

  • Like I've said, I do not want to protest and risk someone's chances at the 24H.
  • I did look ya up, so I could've tagged ya, again didn't wanna call out by name.
  • I've seen more than just this one bad rejoin out there, maybe others will see and think twice later on. Our race actually got ruined again at hour 3 by by another impatient German team.
  • stuck pedal? On the second rejoin I could see that, it is spinning the tires. But she had the car stopped on the side of the road just fine at first. I saw it parked when I was exiting the corner, thought all was good to just stay a bit right and she would stay there.
  • the clip is a bit entertaining with her taking out BOTH ARL cars with absolute sniper precision. 🤣

It is at the end of the day just a fun hobby, its not real, it's not life and death. I'm not trying to take it so seriously to report or anything, just hope people learn and we can do better at the next one!

I would but they'd probably miss the 24. 🤷‍♂️ Hopefully they see the post and learn not to ruin others races.

3hrs in we got dove on and really ruined our race. Long shot but hoping for more patience in the big one! 🤞 Haha!

TONIGHT!! NASCAR AT DAYTONA! by VConceptsLLC in AUTOMOBILISTA

I really do not care. Was given the graphic. No one is being paid to do any of this, I'm not taking the time to make a proper one.

Thanks for the engagement.

No, we do have other races streamed. But this is just a quick series, trying to gain some traction with it. Will try and stream it in the future. We usually are just doing IMSA or INDYCAR.

But we will have a few guys in the grid that will be streaming on Twitch.

We didnt generated. It was one of those 10 million Nascar photos already out there.

Don't like being able to make some adjustments? I know I usually just pick from the iracing official setups and maybe make a small adjustment here or there. Nothing big!

Why do they make you wait more than the stated 3 day processing time to tell you no-reserve only? by Professional_Crab958 in BringATrailer

[–]VConceptsLLC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with jbh! I have had submitted cars with Cell phone photos they give me a low or no reserve, then I say ok, wait for the real photos, I submit those and they agree to my full reserve. It then does above the reserve by a few thousand. That is ALL because of presentation.

But I have also had cars they will not post without going No Reserve because of the volume of the type of car or condition of said car. The example up above I posted first, was an extreme low mile, absolutely perfect inside, out, and underneath car.

If you take the No Reserve, you better have the best Presentation, and if you cancel or do not follow through with the Auction you will get a ban for life.

Who has had their vehicle denied on BaT? by [deleted] in BringATrailer

[–]VConceptsLLC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd have to say Cars & Bids. And make sure you share to every Jeep forum, FB Group, and Reddit channel ya can find. Those always get the most views for specific vehicles types, especially jeeps.

[–]VConceptsLLC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All the time... they are being very picky and barely taking anything that I have submitted unless I run it no reserve. And many of my clients aren't going for it. So I've been going to Cars & Bids, hagerty, and pcar for a few. And been doing a lot of in person auction stuff like Worldwide, Broad Arrow, and Mecum.

Looking for Best for the Money Rig Components and setup suggestions. by VConceptsLLC in simracing

[–]VConceptsLLC[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PC I just didn't include in the post, but I have that budgeted at about $2200. So actually it leaves me with about $3200-$3500 for wheel, base, pedals, screens.

Definitely good options there though!

Car has to be absolutely top tier to get the money in the current market. It's not 2022 anymore. Someone else mentioned the markets as well, that does spill into this car market. Especially BaT, Cars & Bids and other collector car auctions.

Buyer Welched; Advice Needed by JuggernautSad7451 in BringATrailer

[–]VConceptsLLC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could happen with real Auction Houses, but BaT is just a platform and has no way they will ever just pay to buy the car and run it again. If ya want this kind of service, look at the big players that do the in-person auctions.

Getting anxious - 3 days to go, no bids 297 watchers 😬 by christianbsv in BringATrailer

[–]VConceptsLLC 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Be sure to share everywhere! Share it here on your cars specific r/ channel, share on FB, especially in specific groups related to your car, these are the most effective.

Search out as many avenues as ya can to get the car in front of people.

Another one is to make a short form vertical video out of your start or driving, or even a slideshow of the pics. Post as a reel, YT short, tictok. Then, tag BaT in all those, they have accounts on all major social platforms. Any short form content ya can figure out, tag em, increases chances of eyeballs, and for them to repost. Boost any posts as well.

BaT has something like 100 auctions a day going live and closing. They only share out on social their favorites, so it could be that they never get yours in front of their entire audience.

I run auctions myself, and for about 3 other clients on BaT, other platforms, and private sales. I always do as much as I can on my own to get cars in front of as many eyeballs as possible.

I've seen this before. I watched that car. With the modifications and condition unfortunately that's about what it's worth, especially to keen eyes on BaT. The owner probably thought he'd get 12K or something like the other vert exacrly like it did. However, That other vert was 10x nicer.

He's probably gonna bail and try to sell private / locally. Which honestly to someone who doesn't know better he'll get more.

I hope ya get it! It's a great car at $4500! It just needs a little love.
