What’s more exciting than watching the feverish bidding on a no-reserve auction, knowing that the last enthusiast will win that Corvette?!? The big dog of no-reserve auctions is Barrett-Jackson, where every vehicle rolls across the block with technically no protection for the seller, other than the excitement that the bright lights (and open bar) bring. There is similar excitement with the online Bring a Trailer auctions, but not nearly as many no-reserve offerings–more on that analysis in a moment.

Just how many of Bring a Trailer’s auctions are no-reserve? Currently, there are 36 live Corvette auctions on BaT, with just five being offered without any floor from the seller. That’s only 14%. I’ve heard from enthusiasts across multiple social media outlets that BaT will often try to persuade private sellers to consider a no-reserve auction, but the overwhelming majority still have a bottom that the seller is willing to take. Now, without further ado, here is every NO-RESERVE Corvette auction currently on the lively online auction platform!
