Bought a unit 10 x 10 on Tuesday. Had some furniture and a bed, couch, love seat, dresser, 2 chest of drawers, desk, shelf and about 14 boxes. Auction was early 8:30am and the only ones there were the old timers. It was only a mile from my house and the first in a long line of auctions that day but only one unit at this place, kind of out of town. I paid $65 for the unit. I have already cleared over $250 on the furniture and still have microwave basically a whole apartment, kitchen stuff pots pans, all kinds of stuff. But the best part was in a glass box candle holder i opened and there was a diamond ring. 10k gold with 3 rows of diamonds. 9 diamonds in each row and there were 2 of them missing, so 25 diamonds total. Gonna take it around and see what I can get on Monday.

I didn't find any cars, gold nuggets, or diamond rings, lol. But I think I did pretty good for my first run. I paid $33 for my first unit, the $3 was a 10% fee charged by the facility which discouraged a lot of folks from bidding on high priced units. Anyway, I got a nice full size bed and frame, 2 washers, 2 dryers, and an older big screen TV. I sold the big screen first for $50. There was a 2005 model Frigidaire set of washer dryer that worked perfect and looked brand new after I hit it with windex. Sold that for $150. Sold the older Kenmore dryer for $65 and kept the Full bed til I find a queen. We sold our King and want a queen. Anyway. Thats $265. I had to haul off 2 couches and an old crappy tv stand. Didn't have to pay to dump them, no charge for pick up truck. The other washer didn't work so junked it. Spent about $10 in gas. Did everything myself in 1 day. So for first one not to bad, cleared $222. One guy bid against me but bailed quick. Most folks were scared of the work involved. While that was all going on, my ebay business made about $200 for the day without me being there, so I think this will be a good 2nd thing for me besides ebay. I sold everything on Craigslist within 2 days.
