Today in Memphis,TN we had auction at all the U-stor locations.
13 locations, and a total of 31 units.
I got one unit today, for $170.00
The most exspensive one today went for $740.00 And the cheapest one went for $90.00
So pricewise it was a good day.
The crowd startet out with 14 people at 09:00, but around noon more people joined in, and after noon it was 28 people attending.
Not alot of new faces today, maybe 5-6 was new. But only one of the newbies was bidding at the end, and he was pushed up pretty high for a crappy unit, lol $460.00 for alot of blankets and stuffed garbage bags. Hasta la vista "hype bidder"
There was 31 units in total, out of these 5 was crap, 7 was ok, and rest of them was good. From what we could see from the door.

So did you get anything good out of your $170 unit?

Im wondering as well

Not that way around Atlanta GA today.
I went to two today, One had 4 units with about 80 people and the other one had 7 with about 60 people
Units with bed stand, bed and bags went for over $700.00 ???

Here is a little list over what i got from my unit.
2 dresser chests ( in bad condition) i will use them in my garage for storage.
1 complete kitchen set, table and chairs. Priced at $180.00 ( might have a buyer for it already)
1 livingroom set. loveseat + 3 seater + coffee table and 2 end table. Priced at $440.00 Consider it sold for that price already.
1 complete bed with mattresses and boxspring. in ok condition. Will sell it for $50.00
Beside that big stuff, i found some suitcases filled with stuff, and what a world that opened up to me.
1 coach wallet unused
1 pair of coach winter boots maybe used 2 or 3 times
Genuine Gucci backpack
2 VTEC phone systems
Ceramic pottery set
2 car audio ampilifiers
one car audio cd-changer
One PSP mobile powercord/charger
There are still things i have not gone thru.
Oh and there was a backpack full of CD's and DVD's
My guess is that, when everything is sold, i would have about 1000 bucks from it. Not bad when paid 170

Looks like you made off pretty good again

Here is a few pictures of some of the stuff i got.
I think the unit belonged to a "wanna be" stripper, because there was tons of stillettos and thongs in several bags.
LOL and i think her boyfriend was a pimp, because there was alot of typical pimping clothing in there.
