Title: May - June
Post by: Fayettenam Man on May 24, 2014, 12:24:22 AM
What have you bought lately? Any big or interesting auctions coming up?

I've been going along in May, just bought two units for $100 bucks. $25 unit was a hot mess, military uniforms scattered through out gave hope for a bigger score but it just wasn't there. Still sorting trash from 'treasure' maybe $100-$200 profit but more work than an easier buy.

The second unit I paid $75 for, and this one was more straight forward. Couch, bakers rack, box of linen and a large black bag in a solid square shape. I had to see what was in the bag and couldn't find anything from the name (Oaksworth) in time on my smart phone. Took a small chance and it turned out to be a massage table. Pretty nice one, should pay for everything and some.

Small crowd, 5 people for 5 rooms. Looking forward to some auctions in South Carolina toward the end of the month.

I just started back last week and it has not been good. Seen at least 60 lockers bid on 5 and only bought one.  It was a good one with a Cat Scan Machine and you can read all about that on another thread.

The big runs have been really tough with a ton of competition and not much merchandise.  I am going to try and stick to the independent storage facilities instead of the main ones like Public and Uncle Bobs.
