Those are the starting bid prices. They still haven't actually had any auctions start yet so everything you see is what they're starting out at. Most of the trailers are starting over what a lot have been bringing on GL.

What it's likely to mean is a lot of repeat auctions when someone realizes they have to come up with that amount in cash and wire it directly from their bank and either can't or their spousal unit won't allow it. My guess is they're not going to be able to sustain those prices. There is a...

Then you weren't looking at the LMTVs

It will also weed out an awful lot of people who could afford to buy these trucks as a hobby to do living history events, car shows, Veteran's parades, etc. I'll dump $10k into a true "classic"" vehicle such as a restored Vietnam or earlier truck because it has current historical value. While...

While I'm not talking about a specific auction or a specific date or a specific location (hope that clears the discussion hurdle), $10k starting bid for a non-running vehicle? Kiss My... Time to start looking for a 151 and forget any more surplus.

Well it'd be nice if they started showing what they have. Less than a month out and nothing to look at yet.

Of course if you can't pay your VISA bill you just get dinged on your credit report. If you can't pay your HELOC they foreclose on your house.

Folks should review their "Iron Clad Guarantee" also. It's great that they inspect the vehicle and all but looks like if you try and hold them to it there is a $750 deductible. Can't really tell if that applies if you don't take posession due to an issue or if it applies to you trying to get...

Just got an email from Military Trader with a posting by IronPlanet looking for Territory Point of Contact employees, full and part time. Hopefully they don't pull too many from GL or we'll be back to some of the same issues we're having now.

I think he was refering to the more money surplus brings the more money will be returned to the general fund (government property being sold means the government getting that money). My point was it doesn't matter if they were getting a little from GL or a lot from GovPlanet that they're going...

I'd like to think it'd trickle back down to us, the taxpayer, but know, to them, it's like you or me finding a $20 bill on the sidewalk. You just stick it in your pocket to spend since it's not really anyone else's money.

Well I guess one way they're going to beat GL is by starting the bids at $1200 instead of $25. Maybe they're start the ones with KNOWN mechanical issues lower but the days of buying a running, driving MV for under a grand appear to be gone unless you fish in the GSA pond.

The discussion of GL losing the rolling stock contract to Iron Planet has been going on since it first happened, months ago. The situation of "Iron Planet" dealing under a sub-name of "Gov Planet" has also been mentioned but apparently no thread started as such (in case you did a search). So...

If you're already signed up for Iron Planet it's the same account. Sign in and password carry over.

So if you faint from actually winning you won't hurt yourself.
