I have been in attendence at both Mecum's and Barrett /Jacksons Auctions for the last three years, in many cities and have not seen one SSP go through. Any Police cars are usually, "Mayberry'" versions. I honestly think that the 14K you recieved was in your favor, especially since you were only charged the flat $500. fee.
The large auction houses have a very funny crowd of buyers now. There is taste to spend money and then to look for a bargin. (Friday night specials) at the auction house. I think you did very well and this gives me an idea as to what I might see if I see an SSP go through. Congratulations on the sale.
