Default auctions

James, I don't remember what if went for, but man what a beautiful car, I got a lot of close up pictures of that one.

I agree with previous statements that you should attend at least once in your life. It really is a spectacle to behold. Craig is a creep of the highest order, but I will admit that business-wise, he is pretty damn smart. Lots of nice cars, but the quality of some of them are suspect.

Russo and Steele is run by a guy named Drew Alcazar, who used to be Craig's right hand, while still a very shrewd business man, he is not quite the creep that Craig is (by the way Craig HATES him for starting a competing auction and they battle each other through City of Scottsdale politics). I will say that Russo and Steele is not as big, nor as much of a circus as BJ is, and I think that the cars at RS are much better quality.

Hey chief, I wan't talking about Steve Magnante, I was talking about the so called persident of the B-J auction his name is steve to , he'e the one on the stage in the auctioneer's box all the time & even when he's inside being on camara being interviewed hes always wearing those sunglasses. He doesn't have any eye problem but I do know the Steve M. does thats why he has become so good at knowing what a car is when blindfolded. But the little jerk thats always next the craig is the one I'm talking about , he's craigs yes man now. Thats why if you look everytime craig says somethign he's nodding his head like a spring headed dog in the back window of an old merc. Just watch the next time you see a rerun on tv, he'll be there just nodding away with his head half way up craigs ,,,,,,well you know where.

Steve Davis is the president of B-J. He does have a problem with bright lights and that is why he has to wear sun glasses indoors. The announcers explained all of this on Saturdays show. Just trying to clear up why he wears sun glaases in front of the camera's.
