I think he is going with the P.T Barnum sales approach.

I think he is going with the P.T Barnum sales approach. Technically, that quote is incorrectly attributed to Mr. Barnum. The proper originator is Francis J. Alvany, aka Joseph Lewis; at least, the earliest recorded use of the quote can be found in his biography. Interestingly enough, he's also one of the originators of the term "Bunco Man" or "Confidence Man" with a very impressive list of people he's swindled.

Even though the BiN was lowered to $9,999.99, he came back to BBC (it looks like in a response to Steam and Blueblood's posts) on Oct 13th, and claimed that it sold to someone in Mexico for $11,500.00
That is about a 600% mark-up, and considering who the claims are coming from... I have a hard time believing it.
Maybe for a mint '74... but for an "average" BluMo (Blue interior... torn seats... rust... inaccurate pushbar... etc), I'm doubting it.
* The only response he got over there was that he was "pathological". Hahahaha.

I'd believe it sold for $11,500.00 PROVIDED it was in PESOS.

For the sake of records keeping, I am going to post a few photos and info about some of my past Bluesmobiles... This one was my first, a 1974 Dodge Monaco, 440 engine, blue interior. Sold to a private collector in Mexico for $12,500 (House of Blues, Dallas) posing with "Briefcase Blues", Dallas.
