Title: Pictures of some of your best finds at storage auctions or “picks”
Post by: MovieMan on February 18, 2013, 07:58:25 PM: I'll start this one with three picks of a dollhouse I got in May, 2012. Took five months to sell it on eBay but I got $375 for it. It came out of a $1,900 locker. I'll put the pics in three separate posts...should prevent it from loading to slowly.

Here's pic 1.

Post by: MovieMan on February 28, 2013, 04:03:51 PM: Got this one a month or so ago at a thrift store. It's a chiropractic table.

Bought it for $50. Sold it for $800.

Most of these tables are higher off the ground (more like massage tables) but the best ones
have several adjustable areas.

This one was all heavy-duty aluminum construction for the frame. Weight 110 pounds.

That's why I was happy to take what I did. When you have a hot lead it's best to just sell it rather than wait 3 months to a year !
