The first batch of auctions on the 27th, I didn't get to make because I had to work, but on the 28th, I took the day off.  Out of 155 units that were announced in the paper, about 80 of them were actually sold. The average crowd size at each location was 15 or 20.   I was surprised because I thought there would be a lot more people there, because I had been at others where there were as many as 80 or 100 people show up.  I was told that there was another series of auctions going on at the same time and that it divided up the potential bidders.

I thought the units were going fairly reasonable, between $50 and $250 on average.  I didn't bid on any, but considered a couple of them.  For now, I thought it best if I observed a little bit longer before I tackle one.
