This is an EXTREMELY early G/S as well!\r\n\r\nWhile this is a long post, it is worth the read not only to educate, but to create the best, most\u00a0enjoyable and frankly\u00a0fun auction experience here on BaT.\u00a0 After selling well over a thousand cars here on BaT, we see a lot of the same questions and requests, so the hope is to make a post that helps smooth out some of those questions below before they are asked.\r\n\r\nFirst and\u00a0foremost,\u00a0be sure to hit the |\u2606 Watch | button above to be kept up to date as we add more pictures and videos.\u00a0 We like to add them throughout\u00a0the auction and with everyone's busy lives, it is easy to miss an auction end!\u00a0Be sure to schedule your PPI early as spots can fill up fast!\r\nNext, a note for all bidders or potential bidders.\r\nPlease don't be a stranger!\u00a0 Use the Contact Seller button to reach out to say hello!\u00a0 We love hearing from our bidders or would be bidders.\u00a0 Not only to put a name to a screen name and chat, but also to answer any questions.\u00a0 That's what we are here for.\u00a0 But especially if you are bidding we encourage an email just to even say \"Hi, I'm John and I'm bidding!\"\r\n\r\nHow It All Works \r\nFirst, for any newcomers certainly read this links, but even worth reviewing for old timers; the How it Works section https://bringatrailer.com/how-bat-works/\u00a0and be sure to note the FAQ link on the page too!\u00a0\u00a0\r\n\r\nPhotos and Videos \r\nNearly every auction we see questions about various aspects of photos. Some common questions/statements with our thoughts below:\r\n\r\nI Need Outdoor Shots!\r\n\u00a0Not to worry, we add outdoor to nearly every auction of ours, so if you do not see them in the gallery below yet, make sure that Watch button above is clicked!\u00a0 But in most cases they are in the gallery too.\u00a0I think it's worth mentioning as there is usually someone who asks about the merits of studio vs outdoor and there are pros and cons to each. We have found that the indoor light is quite a lot better at showing actual condition. I think there is an idea that somehow the indoor shots hide flaws when it is really quite the opposite. The indoor lights will show a fly\u2019s eyelash left on a car and we spend quite a bit of time on every car making sure that they are prime time ready. The light is more consistent and because it's controllable, it allows for pictures unaffected by clouds, time of day, angle, background and more. Outdoor shots have their place for sure and with certain paints can show off the flip/flop of pearls and highlight some colors more, but with the sun creating shadows and highlights, creates incredibly inconsistent shots that often times hides condition or hyper exaggerates it. We like both and we generally show both, but I definitely like sharing the experience of us having photographed thousands and thousands of cars that the studio makes for a more truthful environment for condition in most scenarios.\r\n\r\nDo you Photoshop your Pictures? \r\nWe do not retouch any flaws on cars in post-edit or photoshop nor add filters. We spend a ton of time and effort in making the cars not only photo ready but employing insanely talented photographers that take wonderful looking and accurate photos.\u00a0 In general, the only thing that we will edit is the shadows of the background to adjust darker or lighter in order to more effectively make the focus on the car.\r\n\r\nVideos\r\nIf you do not see videos yet, don't worry.\u00a0 Like outdoor photos please note the same as above and we add more content throughout even down to the last days.\u00a0 Most all cars we upload both a drive and walk around and sometimes more!\u00a0 So hit the Watch button!\r\n\r\nDoes the Car Come with \"_____\"? \r\nWe post everything we have on the car in the gallery: accessories, keys, car covers etc.\u00a0 We post records as we have them and be sure to check the Carfax for additional info", "likes": 2, "timestamp": 1743291476, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 17218321, "authorName": "Wob (The Seller)", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/wob/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "Inspections\r\nWe welcome all inspections and encourage bidders to set up any in which they like!\u00a0 The time to schedule inspections is during the auction period, not after, so please be sure to reach out early to schedule your in-person or 3rd party inspections.\u00a0 One of the best things about BaT is their unbelievable reach, but that also means that slots for viewing can fill up fast!\u00a0 Also note all cars unless otherwise noted are being sold as-is and no warranty.\u00a0 We do our best to understand and vet every car as well as express all that we know, but this does not mean even the most reliable car is infallible.\u00a0 Cars are as close to living breathing things out there!\r\n\r\nCarfax \r\nCarfax is a nice tool, but a reference at best.\u00a0 It is in no way a complete picture of a car and accuracy of information can vary.\u00a0 This varies from simple and obvious typos to missing info to complete erroneous entries.\u00a0 Also most dealers and shops in SoCal do not sell their info to Carfax, so a missing entry for service does not mean no service.\u00a0 The best advice is to use a combination of common sense and personal due diligence.\u00a0 We are collectors and buyers as much as the next guy so we use the same basis in buying.\r\n\r\nBidding and Winning!\r\nThis is an important one!\u00a0 First, some tips!-Be sure to reach out via the Contact Seller button above with ANY questions you may have.\u00a0 We love to answer questions, but also please note, often the volume is substantial, so please be patient\u00a0if it takes a day to respond.\u00a0 We are on PST as well as a consideration.\u00a0\u00a0-Be sure to schedule any inspections you desire prior to bidding-Please review the entire gallery, read the full ad and full comment section-Be sure that your credit card is up to date with BaT\u00a0-The timer will reset for an additional 2 minutes for any bid made under the 2 minute mark.
