« on: December 30, 2013, 11:51:59 PM »
I'm pretty sure all of you have monikers or pet names for other buyers (and they for you).

Here are some from my area; add yours.

Monikers for auction buyers:
Cigarette John
Richie Rich
Stinky Joe
Boston Blackie
Cardroom Bob
Cowboy
The Korean
      
Etc, etc

The Bird Lady (She's 6'6" and has feathered hair)
The Fashionista (Always wears designer clothes to auctions)
Brawny (I swear he looks & dresses just like the guy from the paper towel commercials)
The Dancing Cowboy (Auctioneer who does the shuffle while he does his chant)

I've got...

Mr. Fancy Pants - he always wears shiny dress pants with a crappy shirt..
Redneck Willy Wonka - he looks like Willy Wonka and typically wears flannel..
Mr. Lazy - never buys a locker he can't move in one trip with his S10..
Preppy Steve - he dresses like he's going to the country club..
Black Kenny - his name is Ken and he's black. He's also the 2nd regular whose name is Ken.
Sexual Chocolate - this is a black couple.. They are always embraced with his hand(s) on her butt while we're waiting for the auction to start. Whenever i see them, I yell out "Sexual Chocolate" like Eddie Murphy in "Coming To America".

We've got one guy we call Fester.  When the door goes up and the overpowering smell knocks the crowd back, you can just about bet he's getting that unit.  I'm pretty sure he doesn't sell the stuff he buys.  Just piles in in a big heap somewhere and nests in it...

Hmmm, lets see....

Tacky Joe
Big John
Safeway John
Liar Liar
Les (Reminds me of Les on Hardcore Pawn)
Rubber boots
Fupa (never mind)

Used to be a lot more but as we learned everyone's names we forget the nicknames.

This guy bought a 10X10 stacked to the ceiling with used toilets. From that point on, he was known as Toilet Man ;D

The Family Circus - A couple who brings their three screaming kids to every auction.
The Big Dog - Always wears Sierra West Big Dogs t-shirts (AKA: Big Bill, who was on Auction Hunters).
The Brick Sh*thouse - About 5'6" but the stockiest dude you've ever seen.
Peanut Butter - Guy who bought a unit with a substantial amount of the stuff inside.
Ivan the Spectator - Has strong Eastern European accent, attends every auction but rarely bids.
Romeo y Julieta - Hispanic couple who are arm in arm the entire auction & never let go of one another.
