A and B are for professional accounts. C and D are for consumers paying by money order, or $60 more for credit cards etc. Plus there's a $59 gate fee for picking the car up, and a $59 internet fee for being allowed to bid on it. And there might be a title fee for not being a dealer, I can't remember for sure. $1,000.00 - $1,199.99 $200.00 $255.00 $325.00 $385.00 ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] I guess somebody wants this real bad
Do they disclose anything about the seller? If an insurance co, chances that they have shills bidding it up to reduce their losses on a total/write-off settlement? If anyone can do the risk/reward calculus on that it would be an insurance company. Allan Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes writes: > Pre bidding got up to $625 this morning.
