Good luck Buffalo.  Definitely return to the forum and let us know how you did and how the auction was run.  I've been to a few and the cool thing is, every single one was run differently so I'm getting a wealth of experience all at once.

Can't wait to hear!!

Well I went to one auction out of three, and bought one for 190 plus tax. It had three totes a briefcase and some mechanical items (rhino ramps for an sub/truck) and a motomaster board to slide under cars. So I took the gamble. It paid off. One tote had personal effects, which I learned his wife was in jail and sent him lots of love letters, pictures of him with strippers, and a lot of bills.

Second tote had a Boise surround sound system in it, score! Speakers alone (cause the unit is all scratched up) I'm hoping to get at least $100 for as my friend said the system new is like $1000. I haven't done any research on it yet.

Third tote had tons of nascar and car models. Priced at $10 - $50 each! So I've been throwing them on eBay as fast as I can.

The briefcase had tons of drafting tools, pencils, pens, triangles, compasses, etc. No idea how much this is worth.

Also found a gold looking football pin. No idea anything about this ether. I'll post pictures soon.

Good for you Buffalo.  I grew up there.  Do they still have the big flea market in Clarence ?  That could be a great place to sell stuff.

How did you make out with this unit?  I was at that auction, and remember this unit. There was another unit that had a briefcase sitting right in plain sight also. Two briefcases at the same place on the same day in two different units. That was a first for me.
