bid twice the starting price and hope for the best.
dont forget you have other cost so convert the bidding price to stg or euros and calculate all the other costs before you make your bid. |

I have just won my first bid today, what I have been doing is looking at what it would cost me to buy one here? I dont wont to be paying the same as I would over here other wise I would just go get one from a dealer, I also look at my budget then I wont bid much over half that as it is going to cost you minimum of another 30% on top of what you paid for it at the start, any way good hunting mate.
Oh Yes, what is a Mirage Cyborg ZR ?

the starting price bears no resemblance to the finish price.
a car can start at 1,000 yen or 300,000 yen and finish at the same price.
let me know exactly what you are after and i will let you know roughly how much. |

Is it possible to see the results of auctions so as to better judge what prices things go for?
I'm thinking about a Hilux Surf SSR-G, intercooler 3litre between 1996 and 2000.
