Here is an example.

There is a Boxster going through the block at the auction. Say that I am prepared to bid up to $20 Large for it.

The announcment comes up "frame" damage.

I would walk away as I don't do damaged cars of any kind.

However, there are dealers who will sell anything. Likely that car dropped 4-5 large and will sell for $15-20K.

Now, the differential will higher in a more expensive car, ie say a 911 Turbo.

Does that help?
