The Income may have nothing to do with the Outcome

The income may not be relevant to the outcome on our lanes in the 17545 Friday.  We have 500+ units in Lane 24, 100+in lane 23 starting afternoon(?) (the only numbers they will provide the world’s largest seller(?), and 60 units in lane 6, starting after noon (the only numbers I deserve as the world’s largest volume seller, converting at well over double the auction’s conversion rate…for decades)(?).  They will be sold.  This is not an appraisal merry-go-round to test a buyers will to pay a barrel over market.  When the auctioneer is done, so am I.  These little babies are leaving the 17545 for spaces unknown until the hammer hits the wood. 


I'd love to feed you like I have done for years but the auction says I can't.  I know you probably think it's because I didn't want to spend the few thousand per week that it cost me, but no.  I have been prohibited from showing my gratitude to you, my customer, the auction's customer, from doing so. Silly, but true.

 

Pay attention and I promise you two things will happen: a smile on your face, and a question mark over your head (?).  Why?  Because you will be wondering how we just did what we did. 

 

Clean up your desk space.  Blow off your keyboard so there can’t be any whining that the computer didn’t work (because your work space is a pig pen), do some homework, and plan on buying cars and having fun.

 

I’m out because we have truck loads of cars that are coming in all day and night.  I got to get them primped and proper for their new home.

 

Sell Well.
