Nice Score. That was a good price for that piece. I expected it to go much higher. I ended up picking up the:
MGR
Hamptons
Tilt
Spider
I expected most of the pieces to go higher than they would seeing how quickly most of the auctions were bid up quickly in the beginning. I have found that it is difficult to predict how Cummons auctions are going to go on Ebay. Sure, we expected the rides to go higher individually than as a lot, but I figured that the Gravitron that went last Thursday night would be a good indication of what prices the rides were going to go for.
Looking back at the prices, with the exception of the Tilt, the rides went for cheaper than if ordering it through Cummons. Some of them much cheaper than the current prices. The Tilt ended as a battle between two people who were set on owning the piece, thus the high price.
Going solely by the 13 pieces that met reserve, the total ended up being $4626, much higher than the lot total of $2997. Include in the price of the rides that didn't make reserve, and the total is over 5 Grand.
