Game 14: Price is Right - WDBEA36E8PB852360 (Car Shrink, SoCal)

[Ntrepid]

1993 Mercedes-Benz 500E

Bid for the chance to own a 1993 Mercedes-Benz 500E at auction with Bring a Trailer, the home of the best vintage and classic cars online. Lot #46,874.

bringatrailer.com

Here are the rules:

• Only one entry per person (cost of entry is PayPal to kondilas@ieee.org using F&F option $5) and your submitting a price to this thread enters you into this game
• Entry must be submitted to this thread 48 hours before the auction closes which is NLT Friday, April 23 at 4:40pm
• Entry is (1) the hammer price at which you think this auction will end and (2) if the car will RNM
• The winner is the person who is (1) closest to the selling price (exclusive of BaT fees) without going over and (2) indicates if the car meets the seller's reserve
• The first person to claim a certain price and RNM status owns that slot. Duplicate bids will be discarded and the original will be maintained
• Additional people wanting to submit at the same level have the option of bidding $0.01 higher or lower (essentially boxing the first bidder)
• Any user can submit $0.01 as a bid if they believe all bidders are over the hammer price.
• The new dimension of indicating if the car will meet the seller's reserve allows two people to bid a similar price as long as they do not choose the same auction outcome. For instance, if @gerryvz chooses $100K and RNM and @Klink chooses $100K and Reserve met, there will be a single winner assuming they are the closest to the hammer price without going over.

Feel free to ask questions as we refine this game.

Good luck!

$55K @maw1124 was in the money although I don’t think he formally entered into the game.

@Ntrepid you can decide. I am fine with rolling this over to game 15.
