Craig that is too funny we just spent time and gas. 

We are kinda rural area, Orlando an hour and half away, Tampa two hours, Jacksonville 3 hours. So our choices are limited.  But looking harder for more box lots, Looks like we will do pretty good, If I can get my education in the porcelain, painted glass, Clown head music box..    Glad a lot of the stuff I can just price and sell.

We delivered our desk. This is funny this couple moved from NY. The place they moved into we bought the guys furniture before he left. The couple said they offered him $300 for it, we picked it up for $100.

Oh the desk was made in NY. Saw the tag when we were moving it. 

Most likely, he's NOT selling the stuff he bought, cause he didn't have a sales strategy prior to purchasing his units.

Just sayin'.   

Or he needed to furnish his house.
We see those too. 

Only a clueless noobie.  Got on to my husband talking out of school about a unit and what was inside. We were not bidding, He said we were not bidding on it I said but our friend was.

We have an EF also. Only ours likes to dump units on noobies. He tried with us he was lucky a noobie jumped in.  And he keeps to himself, have never spoke to him (his choice). The more he sees us the better it is getting. Did see him get beat up (bidding) at an auction, it was sad.

He is also the one saying did you see the safe / gun/ starts trouble only when there is a lot of noobies. 

The mousy people are only around for one or two auctions. But there is always a new one in their place. 

Keep your cool Rockin don't want to see a post of the cops coming and arresting an auction buyer.

Oh wait might deter noobies. Go for it !!!!!!

Here in Fl. the different names have to do with the zoning. Thrift owner trying to do a Flea market on a vacant piece of land. (our idea, but she rents from the owner  ). Anyway it has to be called a swap meet. The thrift owners husband was confused too.  I laughed said it is location, Swap Meet = Flea market. Said we might do better as a swap meet (Yankees here all winter  ).

Heya Money~freezing in Florida???  I thought there was this global warming thing~
Good deal on the auction house thing.  We've been pondering it.  Will have to check it out in the very near future~

Global warming !!!! Think it is just shifting.. Was 45 all day. Suppose to be in the 20's. Don't think I will be out much tomorrow. 

Posted a pick of what we got, we could have done better if we got there for a good preview. the prices were unbelievably low.  If you find one and it offers a printer friendly lot list print it. 

Shoompy  you could also post an add yourself that you will pick up left over yard sale stuff. Post before people or after ? post their Yard sales.  See adds like that all the time and in my previous life I would have called some one to come get it. 

Box auctions, pallet auctions, refurbish auctions - they can all be good places for items.  I know most of the storage buyers here sell totes/boxes of simular items at the auction house.  I've thought about it but have never done it.  Will have to attend one day and see.

Have not gone through what we got, had to unload then go to my brothers. But I think we will do well. Working for now with no lockers up for grabs and large item inventory rich. 

The thrift is picking up but not fast enough for me.  So maybe in a week or two we can grab another unit. Only a few auctions for the rest of the month. 

This is what we got last night at the auction.

This is what we did.
