Sorry for my part in taking this off the tracks. I am not big on when that happens either!

But I wouldn't have known the rest of the story either.

NP I think it's kind of funny and members here are lighthearted enough to joke about it.
But sometime I get lost too, and just say 'BL00dy Barges' and seek solace with something like this...

Carsten alerted the seller of his triple black 71 300 that it is worth $30K in Germany given its very low miles, originality, and documentation. The seller decided instead to sell it for $17K for a quick sale. Several other people saw it in person and had a chance to buy it for the $17K because they had to "ask their wives" etc and probably didn't have the money perhaps. So the guy that later ultimately got it had the money, agreed with Carsten and is offering it for that price. He was smart and had the money. So where is the problem with the seller of the black car now getting what it is worth and being smart and having the money? You sound jealous. The seller now also did some work to the car to ensure its reliability and to fix some things that were messed up.

Yes I think that some people get jealous and there is not reason to.
We, in Europe are jealous of you guys to have ALL the cars you want and all the cars to make money with.
That is a thing i do sometimes ( remember... I still have got all my cars i precise.. ) and everyone that want to sell a car here in europe will try to get a good price because everything cost a lot here. prices are not the same in Europe and USA, so what is the problem ? You can try to sell car in europe directly if you want, a lot of proffessionnal seller does it everyday, but no one can blame someone to try to make money, talking of honest deals ( bying a cheap car and doing work on it is ok.. and cheap car when fixed become priced cars.. ). A lot of sellers and american ones on the top are sharks that just flip cars for the highest price : see what happenned to everything called " muscle ".

and i do not understand the problem : in the first post the guy bought the car 4000$ and sold it for 17k$ !! and he is not a flipper too ? just the guy in germany ?!

there are great 300 for sale here lately, but 20k$ is too much for a resale in europe exept if you sale it for 30k€..
16k$ is much too it is a 20k€ car arrived in europe and 20k€ is very hard to sale for car that are not as famous as muscle cars. they have to be in very very good shape.

Finland prices for fuselages.
5-9k € for 4d
11-19k € 2d ht
16-25k € for conver.
30k € is too much, because that goes to Charger,Cuda,Challenger price range.

People in Finland do not pay the prices the Germans do, so your valuations are not that relevant in this instance. Finding desirable vehicles with extremely low miles that are also well maintained will also bring a significant premium to the right buyer. And you can't even buy a decent 1968-71 Charger, Cuda, or Challenger even here is the U.S. anymore for those prices.

It seems people these days are starting to believe what they want to believe rather than look at the facts and go from there.

interesting that convertibles are more valuable than 2d ht... I think that´s different in Germany as it rains so often
that you can´t use your droptop anyways
plus I think the shape of a 2dr hdt is way nicer than a convert but that´s just my personal opinion

In Scandinavia Convertibles were always very popular.
Way more than in central Europe.
It doesn't have to do with the weather as up north the summertime is shorter.

Just to get it straight: The tx9 300 for sale has a price of 29k EUR without container handling/deloading, importtaxes/Customduties/insurance etc.
The price will be 32k EUR (38k$) after that, still sitting in the harbour.
At that point it has no inspection and isn't registered.
If you do not want to just park it in your collection you will have to renew tires, exhaust and probably other parts to make it pass inspection and to get it reliable. The amount you invest depends on how much you want to/have to do. And of course if you can do yourself or need a shop to do it for you.

droptop

...i disagree...in general you can say: when the top goes down the price goes up. O.k.there are exceptions...but keep it simple. I don't know where you live in Germany...i already drove a lot of miles with the top down this spring already (south west).

depends on shape of cars !
here in France there is nothing under 10k€ or lates 70's and 80's.
Most spectacular are wagon : value nothing when I started Us cars ( like 20 years ago ) 1000/2000€. Now they ALL are over 10k€ min and often higher than 4dr.

Ok, let me get this straight. In another thread, Henry posted the comment "May need to sell my '71 300", which turned into "is it for sale or isn't it for sale", which turned into a short grammar lesson which turned into "is Detmatt's convertible for sale or isn't Detmatt's convertible for sale", which ended where the '71 300 was sold but nobody knew until now who it sold to.

Everybody with me so far?

Now we learn, in another '71 300 for sale thread (apologies to the seller of this '71 300, but I don't think he is a member here) that member Piot bought it to resell at possibly twice the price in Europe because they have more money than Americans, even though Henry had received some offers that fell through from said Americans. And we learn along the line that Finnish are frugal, Germans have deep pockets (but only for hard tops) and Scandinavians are indifferent unless it's a convertible, but all Europeans love BIG cars and are better buyers than Americans. Whew.

Where is that train derailment emoji?

Great summary. I find most of that infuriating since most of it is bullshit but not bullshit to the guys who believe it.

And nobody had an ounce of feedback as to what my vert is worth.
