Former owner encounters...both at the auction and afterwards

I've seen the debtors show up a few times, usually to beg to purchase some of their items back. Most of the folks take their contact info and pledge to get in touch with them later...after they've had a chance to go through everything.

I've heard some horror stories about debtors being given contact info they shouldn't have, and then showing up at the homes of successful bidders. When I register at each auction, I use a Google Voice phone number and a PO Box for my address; I'm not that easy to find.

If you are interested in this topic, check out the link below about an encounter I had on August 29, 2011 with a former lkr owner.

The applicable replys are #61 through #65, but the posts before that are interesting too in regard to a safe in the locker.
