Yeah... kind of gross. I can’t even imagine what a mess this would be if these were transferable. You’d have everyone buying these and trying to sell their place in lineWell it says you can't transfer on the Ford reservation info page.
To the guy selling his reservation for 15k and using his pandemic baby as a reason
Don’t know but I emailed him to ask him a ton of stupid, ignorant questions.You just can’t fix stupid.
Per Ford, you can’t transfer a reservation. Can’t imagine Ford changing the rules for this guy, especially since he’s broadcast his intentions to the world of eBay.
If this is true, not sure how eBay would allow this ad to continue?
Easy way around that. The guy who reserved it comes to an agreement with eBay winner in what colors/features he wants, purchases it and takes delivery. An hour later in the McDonalds parking lot down the street he sells it to eBay winnerYou just can’t fix stupid.

No previous sales that I see so it is likely a lie to bolster his ad. According to completed eBay sales the only previous Bronco reservations is the guy trying to sell his spot for $5K. It goes unsold and he just keep relisting it.He mentions that the other one that was posted earlier this summer sold. Can anyone confirm this? Can you look up past auctions?
Per the guy's ad, it says (paraphrasing) that he will act as an agent to facilitate the transfer of the reservation.Easy way around that.

I really don’t understand why everyone thinks the FE is going to be a gold mine in resale down the road. It may hold its value a little better but I don’t think it’s going to be a rare collectors item. If you want something rare get a fully loaded Badlands with lux package, 2.3 automatic with leather in silver, there won’t be many with those specs.
It's possible it's a someone with a relationship with a dealership.Per the guy's ad, it says (paraphrasing) that he will act as an agent to facilitate the transfer of the reservation.
Selling a used Bronco is something different.
Well all you have to do is walk in with the eBay buyer, and finish the order from there. The full deposit would be put down by the eBay buyer, along with the paperwork etc. I don't think Ford cares about someone buying a Bronco ..it' just stops chaos from happening with the reservation system. Once you step into the dealership on ordering day, the reservation number will be gone when you put the full deposit down anyway..the reservation number isn't going to travel with the build. Nobody is going to pay $15,000 for a reservation number anyway
I wouldn't expect a relationship with a dealer. Just your typical a-hole on ebay trying to make a quick buck. Take a look around Christmas time and note whatever the hot item is this year, will be for sale for 3 times the price. Look back to beginning of covid when everyone sent home. People were buying up limited stock of game consoles and selling for 2-3 times the price. There's always going to be a-holes making a quick buck. And sadly as time gets closer to December (perceived ordering time), I expect quite a few ebay ads to pop up for registration spots. And they will sell ?It's possible it's a someone with a relationship with a dealership.
