Lyn;
I wanted to let you know about the die cast/promo car auction and how well it went. I followed most of your suggestions. We used a feature add on Auction Zip in Iowa, Ill, Wisc. and Minn. we cataloged the cars and ended up with 1491 lots. We used print adds in the Collectors Journal, Hawkeye Racing News and our local Waterloo Courier. We also had the auction advertised on our web site. We had bidders from 4 states. The Promo Cars were GREAT!!!!!17 cars sold for more than $100
6 Cars sold between $200 and $300
2 Cars sold between $300 and $400
The top car sold for $410 and went to a man from Michigan
We used 2 days to sell 1491 lots in 710 minutes for an average of 2.1 lot per minute.
The average lot sold for $13.02

Thanks for the advice!!!!
