Not to be funny or a pain in the @$$, but it seems like your policy about not disclosing the reserve price AFTER an auction has ended has turned out at least two auctions for late 1980's/early 1990's Chevrolet Camaros that have ended in NO SALE at all. (That doesn't include a whole host of cars that weren't sold during their individual auctions because the reserve was kept confidential.) If the motive here is to facilitate the sell of cars on this website, I think Autotrader would do good to rethink this policy. If not actually rethinking this policy, then rethinking what kind of assistance that you offer sellers in making REALISTIC reserve amounts. If not, your website is going to go the way. of the doh-doh bird really soon.

@Maloft1 Good luck with that. Autotrader doesn’t want these sellers to respond to inquiries like yours. According to Autotrader, they want to keep what the actual minimum asking price is a secret “..,just in case the seller wants to put his or her car back up for auction.” What it means in actuality is that sellers like the owner of this Camaro and buyers like you and I cannot ever reach an agreed-upon transaction price and cars are not sold on this app/service. I’m inclined to believe that many times these “secret reserve” amounts are unreasonably more than what these cars are actually worth. But let Autotrader tell it, I’m wrong.
