Do you trust auctions, more specifically online auto auctions? Or blind online auctions?

Posted by sidewalkside on 11/12/25 at 8:31 am

I've long suspected online auto auctions were a scam or at least prone to scammy activity. My suspicion specifically is regarding cars being auctioned with no reserve only to have the owner or some other party affiliated with the auction bidding up the price by creating artificial demand.

Then I found this guys page on Instagram and it confirmed my suspicion.
Here is the video where he exposes the same cars being "sold" multiple times on various auctions with artificial demand and attempting to bid the price up higher than what it would have originally sold for.

BTW go check out his page and see how bad he got screwed at Mecum.

I shouldn't be shocked, it's LA politics but I am and we should all be embarrassed

The firing, not firing, not for cause, for cause, buy out, negotiated settlement should embarrass all of us so much that we demand better.

But we won't.

We'll fester in this dysfunctional back woods, good-ole-boy system that keeps our state in the lowest performing status in so many categories.

And life will go on. LSU will rise to dominate again and we'll all celebrate and ignore this.

LSU / The Gov can’t even fire BK properly

This will surely make the new coach search much easier and attract top talent.

There needs to be a huge sense of urgency by the R's if and when the govt is re-opened. We will likely not keep control after the next med-terms. We're almost a year in and we have one left to make a real difference

Agreed. But they have to find a way to give the DIM's an off ramp to feign success or victory

47 and the rest of the republicans need to find a way to take back the message quickly and effectively bc if not there will not be R control after the next election cycle.

Oh and they need to unite and act fast to strike while we have control.

And the closer this shutdown get's to the holidays the worse it's going to be for 47 to manage. We all know it's the DIM's fault but right/wrong or indifferent the person in charge get's the credit or the blame.

work to do and concern to be had regarding affordability and day-to-day quality of life issues. There is a lot of fear and unhappiness in the ether. And I get it...Trump can't just "lower prices" but the DIM's have seized that political talking point and are using it effectively. The republicans need to strike while the iron is hot bc they will not likely keep hold of WH/Congress in 2026.

47 deserves all the credit he should get for ending wars in Gaza/Israel (maybe in Russ/Ukraine) but those are in far away lands and not a quality of life issue here.

47 deserves all the credit for blowing up drug boats but those are in far away waters and in reality don't impact quality of life issues here.

The stock market is going gangbusters but that is overshadowed by fear/layoff headlines regarding AI. The "K Shaped" economy is getting more and more pronounced and that will not end well. Richer getting richer and poorer getting poorer (mostly because of their own terrible decisions) is not a recipe for success.

Generation not understand the world has changed?

If Saban was considering does anyone really think Miss Terri would be house shopping?

Posted by sidewalkside on 11/4/25 at 6:59 pm

These claims of so and so’s wife shopping for a house in BR is so much bullshite.

We’re getting Saban but miss terry is not here shopping like some unaware dolt.
