NADA Wanderlodge Listings

[davidbrady]

Well Don,

Find me a source of Blue Bird Wanderlodge material that's 100% accurate. Sure anyone can cherry pick and one is only going to see what one wants to see. I'm afraid that's the case here. Believe me, you're not the first to take a look at the data and see discrepancies and repeats. I went thru the same exercise myself and I still walked away with the strong notion that this is worth saving.

As to Randy and BBBB funneling their transaction prices into NADA and thereby setting the prices. Really??? Again, another original thought. Yes this is true and hopefully the data will be factual and substantiated and not made up, and hopefully other dealer/brokers will do the same. Yes this is the marketplace we live in and we need to make the best of it. This wasn't lost on any of us either. The fact that these real sales transactions are reported to NADA is a boon to anyone shopping for and selling a bird. I don't think I need to enumerate why this is the case.

The fact is NADA prices have been lamented for years. The topic comes up endlessly. What we learned thru this thread and investigation is that it's within our power to fix it. So, you can be part of the solution or part of the problem. The solution is there in the hands of BBBB, BirdConnection, Parliament Coach and the rest of the dealer/brokers. The reason NADA pricing is a mess is because this group has not fed NADA with factual up to date real world sales transaction prices. It's within their power to fix. Will they? Or, will the tear it down. If they choose not to fix it then why?
