Hit my first of 3 Auctions over the next 2 days. of the 30 bidders that showed up, 10 were Hardcore Regulars, 3 really obvious noobies, and us part timers made up the rest of the field.

6 units in all going from $5.00 this unit I didn't think would even receive a bid, as it had a broken infant swing, a small box that appeared to have nothing more than old school papers, and an empty storage bin.

3 good unit out of the 6 one went for $375.00 and another that went for $1025.00 full of tools , mechanic, lawn tools, oh and a samurai sword. I bid on the other unit had some good quality leather furniture, a silk screening machine, a hooka as well as numerous storage bins and some low quality speakers.

2 more auction tomorrow one @ 11 am and the other @ 1pm will give an update on crowds and pricing on those.

I took an extended lunch today to make an Auction close by and got a cheap locker $40 for a 3x5 not much in it but some cheap furniture and had mostly used household items in the few boxes. However in the back was a tarp over something and no one wanted to take a shot at it so I stepped up for the 40 bucks.

To my surprise it was a lapidary bench with wet saw/grinder/sander and lapping wheel. I threw it up on Craigslist @ 1:30 and had it sold for $350.00 by 8:00pm.
Not a bad day for a last minute locker.

I decided since these two auctions are so close together I'd take a vacation day to hit them both if needed. If I do any good I'll drop a post and share my experience here.
Wish Me Luck
