Large AC lighted dealer sign

   This belongs to Kurzy here on this forum. He was asking $5000 in the classifieds. Wonder what it will bring ? Already at $2700 :

Why NOT !!!!! I had a 3 x12 NOS in the crate never hung up and sold it it .It did not suit for what i was doing .

   The bidder asking if pickup at the GOTO in Hutchinson is possible is a little late.

In case you didn't notice, that clock that just sold was Kurzy's also.  He must be getting rid of lots of stuff.

You cant tell a difference in them, friend had a smaller one wind damaged . the one about 2 ft by 8ft . It was an original, insurance covered it. regional sign company came and installed new bulbs and 2 new  sides  and gave a 5 year service plan for around $2500.

holy smoke the dealer near us had a sigh just like that i tripped over in the shed when looking for a carburetor for my ca i did not think these thing are this collectible i think i will be making some phone calls to see what the story is on this piece of gold my allis nut neighbor has one hanging and lit up in his shed that is huge but i must admit it looks awesome at night all lit up

Montevideo is only 1 hr 18 minutes from Hutch. If I were spending that much on the sign, I doubt I would be quibbling over a minor detail like the precise location of the 2012 GOTO.... If I were not buying the sign, or could not afford the sign, I might focus on that kind of detail.

Looks like you need to find a sign maker to get your family name on the dealership sign:)

It hit reserve. $3500.

   At $3650 with about 53 mins left.

38 bids to get to 3.8K$?, Kills me. nickel and dime your way to $4K$$! Could have called Kurzy and had it home by now. 

Along the same line as Chris just stated, what I will never ever figure out is why someone would bid more than once on any given auction item. There were 38 bids and 11 bidders. In a way it's good for the seller but the buyers are just running each other up for no reason. When I bid, I put in a bid with less than 10 seconds left, if I get it great, if I don't then better luck next time. Generally if I want it I will get it because I don't try to pinch pennies on something of value and it's really annoying to see 2 morons nickel and diming each other for 7 days but it's hilarious to outbid them in the last 10 seconds. Sorry, just had to rant.
