Barrett Jackson has been good and bad for the hobby.
These days anyone with a $3000 barn find thinks it's worth $30,000, when you can barely get that for the same car after a $30,000 restoration.
Keeps the NOS parts market strong, for those of us selling rare parts.
One of my customers a few years back had a very BAD experience with them. Something about miss-representing one of his vehicles and selling it cheap, only to have the buyer "flip" it quickly for nearly twice as much money. I can't remember the details, but the buyer who flipped it had a direct association with the company, so they figured he was in on the deal.......Cliff
