Canadian Dollar is actually worth 3 cents more than the US Dollar right now. The Canadian notes that seem to be really collectible are the notes from the 1970's.

I havn't done all that much reasearch into them as far as specific notes, which treasurers signatures on the notes make it worth more, etc. I would imagine smaller denominations in good shape are probably worth more than others. I think 20 is the most common note and larger notes dont get as much wear and tear but signles, 2's and fives I imagine wear down quick so if you find any in good condition may have some good money there.

I've been seeing a lot of these units with just one or two pieces of furniture in them lately. More so than before. I'm wondering if that was true what someone said in another post that they are letting people clear stuff out if they give money and then auctioning off the rest of the stuff.

I was at an auction the other day where crowds weren't too bad. Maybe 20 people at the most where as a few weeks ago this same circuit had 60 plus people.

Prices weren't bad. Many units going for more than I'm comfortable paying but no more of the $1000 for a unit with regular household stuff like old cpu, 27" tv, etc.

True that ironman. I used to think I gotta get every last dollar out of every item but after sitting on some things having them take up space and then selling them for the same I could have made a few months earlier is a waste. Rather make a little money and clear room for more inventory

I ran into a lady I normally talk to at the auctions recently who I hadn't seen in a while.

She said she went to a few auctions in a town thats not in the middle of nowhere but about an hour outside of Chicago.

She said only like 5 other people showed up and it was a sealed bit auction. I guess only one unit but she said she bid $250 and got it and everyone else looked at her like she was crazy.

She said she probably overpaid as she was used to how things have been lately and how they are in Chicagoland area.

Just figured everyone even those who live in a major city have some semi rural areas within an hour or so drive. Maybe try hitting up those auctions.

Wow spam hitting the boards hard today, obviously this same euro name is aprt of it. If I were drew I would go to his tax website get his number and post it in casual encounters section of every major city, see how he likes annoyed by unsolicited messages.

Thanks for the link.

  Here is a cut and paste from that site which I also found interesting.

It has came to my attention that there are new web companies taking my information and selling my auction information to "members". I do not authorize any of this abuse of my information. This information is listed here for my customers use and not for any other reason.  All information, rules, address's, etc. listed here is the facts of my auction and please disregard any information that you aquire from other websites.

For the companies using my info, it will not be tolerated and I'm in the process of contacting officials of the abuse, specially the companies selling my information. Please remove my info from your site immediately.

She doesn't have many auctions in the first place but good luck with that. All this is public information nothing wrong with people reposting it.

I understand where she's comming from in that she probably has people annoyed that tohers don't update info about cancelled auctions but the info she has is public, its not something that can be copyrighted or patented or protected in anyway.
