MCG had everyone believing that this was going to be a great added bonus to those who subscribed to the magazine. It cost just a little extra but was Dirt cheap on line bidding service (compared to ebay).  After looking at the site, it's a joke with only a single truck up for bid. Anyone else get screwed here.

Don't know, I did go in a few times but there was very little action, So I'm guessing it was pulled.

He's tightly aligned with Mopar Action. :icon_smile_wink:
As for bidmopar, my guess is that they quickly discovered that the sort of people who read a magazine that is (was) supposed to be largely classified ads are the hardcore auto hobbyists who enjoy swap meets and working on their own car.  Those guys aren't as likely in my opinion to be going online so they can get in a bidding war and pay extra for the parts they need.
On the other hand, the celebrities that like to have their cars done by designer label hot rod artists and leave big stains in their pants whenever they outbid someone else on television for a car are also unlikely to go to an online site and bid because there is no recognition from the media for doing it.  One group buys the magazine for the newsprint section and the other group is being featured in the Playboy mansion color glossy section but neither is bidding in the bidmopar site for their own reasons.  :Twocents: :Twocents: and change  :nana:
