IMHO if you are in the high 5- low 6 figure price range for a classic
car and you either do not know or can't be bothered to find out the
meaning of a phrase that appears twice in the listing, then you are an
idiot. Frankly if said bidder's IQ was any lower they would have to
water them twice a week.
With that said no one ever went broke under estimating people's smarts.
