    Default Cars and Bids in Canada?

    It sounds like its working well in the states, and they do offer it in Canada too.

    Does anyone know anyone who has sold on C+B? Any stories?

    I'm thinking about throwing the GLA45 up there no reserve for fun.

    Please tell us when you do. I'd help put a floor price on it.

    I have a car-centric auction platform sitting on the shelf doing nothing... Wonder if it's time to dust it off? Hmmm....

    Running a platform like that is a great business. you should start it up! Get @Buster to be your first customer. Then get @shakalaka to be your spokesman. Its foolproof.

    Prices of almost anything that isn’t exported to the USA already or very special are also quite low on BaT and Cars and Bids.

    Is Doug's website working well? I haven't really followed Cars and Bids.

    Aw gawd, is this that insufferable Doug Demuro guy? How does he stay relevant when he's actually made like 3 good videos, ever. The other 6,312 videos are so formulaic and nauseating.
    How much money does he need?!

    I'm a fan. He's done well for himself as I think he's worth around $3 million. I like to see regular car guys like us succeed like this.

    I like Doug. I like that he gets into detail on cars. I like that he doesn't do the normal vlog style BS. I like that he doesn't do press cars, or press launches.

    Ever watch SaabKyle04? haha

    Cars and bids had 2 cars for Canada when I looked a couple of days ago. Needs a bit of maturity as I don't think people in Canada go there to buy cars.

    Really? I only found the video about fueling up his daily Ferrari to be really good.
    The rest of the in-depth analysis seem to be him playing with the trunk release buttons and burning several minutes talking and "the quirks" and oddities. His vocal inflection and emphasis severely irritates me, so maybe that's it.

    I would recommend you do not watch his videos.

    It might surprise you to find out that I don't. I have watched enough to know that suffering through the bad videos to find the good ones isn't worth it, for me.
    Most recent one I've skimmed through was the BMW critique someone posted here, this week.
    It reaffirmed my position that I'm just not that into him.
