Like their tastes. That site's very existence says some interesting things about cyberspace and the number of people and cars and items for sale in the world. People ask us (you and me and regular 'net users) so many questions in life about what to buy and where and how much to pay and if you're a 'net head, you not only give them tips you wonder why they don't just go out themselves and hunt down what they want in a snap... And they don't because that snap's getting harder. There's so much info getting onto the web its sheer volume is knocking back the wonderful advantage of electronic searching. Pity the 25th Century car (hyper-levitating-car) fan who gets 2-billion, 2-hundred thousand hits for a typical search. I wonder if there will someday be internet "neighborhoods" that vet information and solicit viewers on that basis--come in here and we'll provide you only the good info. On a tiny scale, that's what bringatrailer is.... Hadn’t seen it. Like their tastes.
