This will make the third time I have tried to post this. Lets see if
breaking it up into smaller chunks lets it get through. I am having real
problems if my ISP so I apologize if this appears more than once.
Sorry if this is a duplicate. I mailed it last night, but it never showed
up on the list.

Subject: more numbers Something to insult everybody - Very Long
Now, for some really obscure comparisons, based on the e-bay sales numbers I
have been keeping. (See posting about a week and a half ago for background
and disclaimers)
Of the 1111 in the initial sample, 1029 were offered in the United States
(not to be ethnocentric, but let's limit this comparison to just those cars)
of which 471 sold. Again, refer to the previous post for definitions.
California:
The largest state, not surprisingly had both the most cars offered (170) and
the most cars sold (84). California represents about 12.04% of the total
country's population and they offered 16.52 percent of the total cars
offered and 17.83% of the cars sold. Of those cars sold, 47.62% were sold
at or above the average price paid for that model and 52.32% were sold for
below model average. (See last long post for model averages)
Texas
Texas is ranked second in total U. S. population. They presented 54 cars
and sold 21 placing them 4th in total cars offered and 5th in total cars
sold. Most interestingly, Texas sold 23.81% of these cars at or above the
model averages and a whooping 76.19% below model average. Only three states
showed a worst below average rate. Of course, what would you expect from a
state that calls George W. "gov?"
New York
The Empire State ranks third in total population. They were also third in
total cars offered (60) and third in total sold (24). Nothing like
predictability. 16.67% of the sold cars went above model average and 87.33%
went for less than model average.
Florida
Florida is the fourth state in total population. They gave us 79 cars and
sold but 25 ranking 2nd in both total offerings and sold. 72% of the cars
sold in the Sunshine State exceed model average and but 21% came in below
average. They came in third overall for sales above model average.
