Mecum Kisimmee
« on: January 06, 2023, 01:12:13 PM »
Probably no surprise to anyone here Mecum Kissimmee is January 4-15. I had hoped to attend the Chicago auction last Fall, but life got in the way. I have a brother down in Florida and we hope to attend next year's auction. Anyone who has attended this year or prior, years, I would appreciate any feedback.

I always wonder how they get a good crowd for that sort of thing, but they seem to.  Wonder if values are cooling off at all.

Watched a little over the weekend, prices seem to be strong as ever. I used to go to motorcycle auctions but never to mecum for cars. I would like to get to the one in Harrisburg this year, we shall see.

I watch all of the auctions I can on tv, Mecum seems to be pretty decent, BJ has turned into a three ring circus.

I haven't totally ruled out going back to Amelia again in March, but I never go in the auction.  The cars for sale, the times I've been, are better than the show.  Fabulous. But I only look at 'em outside.
