Not sure why someone would open up with a $2500 bid on a no reserve auction though.
Could be a shill bidder, unless somebody close by has a Grand Am jones.
Well, no one else bid, which makes me think the one and only bid was by an aquaintance of the seller. Maybe not though.
It would have been iffy with no personal inspection, but then again, maybe someone got a good deal on a low mileage, one of 4022 Grand Am.

I mapquested Dingmans Ferry, PA last night, AFTER I had posted this link.
I discovered that I had just drove right past that town on State Road 209, Sunday afternoon, on my way from New Hampshire to Indiana.
Had I discovered that listing just a few days earlier, while visiting my brother (and yeah, I was on the internet alot), I could have (and would have, if the seller cooperated) done a thorough inspection. That being for the benefit of anyone on this board.

Next time I take a road trip, I'll check the listings in advance.
