Ya maybe the crowds will thin now that the tax season is over. Also though a lot of the regulars are extra hungry and need more stuff since they have been getting less over the past 6 months. So even regulars are bidding a lot higher than they normally would for the simple fact they need more product.

Anybody have any input who goes to auctions in this area? Favorite Auctions? Favorite Auctioneer?

Hey,

 I'm new to the forums so whats up.

 I'm in this business full time and run a one man show.I've been doing this for a year on May 19th.  I go to auctions from San Francisco down to Salinas and anywhere in between. I sell at the Flea Market, on Craigslist, Ebay, and some garage sales (not always in that order).

 Doesn't look like many people from this area post on this forum but there are certainly a lot of people out at the auctions since around December.

Almost no more real cheap lockers in this area and San Jose especially has got a ton of people out there buying and it's commonly a brand new face that wins.

The regulars are still around but for how long I'm not sure. At the prices stuff goes at around here it's pretty tough to get a winner every time.

The price of gas cuts into profit big time as well.

Hopefully I can get some replies to this post and kick around some info about this part of California.
 
 Thanks!
