No, not the totally awesome 80's band, this was a business idea. So, my husband says, "I have an interesting idea. Let's sell cars at the sale," he said. I kind of thought he was crazy.
We also thought that it might work. So, we added it to the sale. Since people and the car dealerships he's talking with are going to make a last minute decision on participation, there are no vehicles listed on the website yet. I think he was really hoping this idea would have popped already and he'd have 20 or 30 cars, SUVs or minivans on there. But, he's had some great conversations and he's still hopeful that a couple of these guys will say yes at the last minute. He's talking with local Ford, Toyota and Dodge/Jeep dealerships in hopes that they have some really great deals they could give our shoppers.
The idea - 1999 or newer and priced under $10,000. That way it's a less expensive price point so that people who are inclined to pay cash for a vehicle can get a decent deal. Will it work? Who knows. If it doesn't, no loss. If it does, I'll be thrilled we did it. I'm glad we're trying something new here and there to see if we can elevate the experience our sellers and shoppers have at the sale.
