That's why I wondered if it was shill bidding because it seems like if someone was serious with over $900,000 bid on eBay they would have gone to russo to buy...it also doesn't make sense that they sold it without a reserve at the auction.
 
 Who wants to bet what it will bring at BJ?

I think the owners blew it. They had bids on eBay for over $900k, but they said right in the ad that if it didn't meet their "7 figure" reserve, they would sell the car at Russo & Steele. I would have taken the $900k and ran to the bank. I'll bet somebody is pretty pissed off.

So the $900,000 + eBay bids must have been shills?

Sold for $412,500 at Russo & Steele auction last weekend. Lower than I thought it would go for.
