General Storage Auction Talk / How far do you travel for an auction?
« on: February 06, 2013, 10:07:01 PM »
I typically don't travel more than about 30 miles to an auction. I live in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area so that covers 3 major cities and many larger towns so there is a lot going on. Typically there are about 6-10 auctions a week in my 30 mile radius.

However, if I stretch that to 50 miles I would pick up Fayetteville and the surrounding area, much of which is military.

So as I mull over my situation, what is your max for travel to an auction? Let's say 3-5 units up for auction.. I know we'll all go a bit further for the mega sales..

Hey guys! I'm new to this board, but not necessarily new to storage auctions. I had done it before the shows started, but stopped to go back into the workforce. After realizing how much I hated the "corporate" life, I'm back at auctions!

One thing that I'm considering pursuing is a webstore dedicated solely to my storage auction finds, mainly the smalls that I find and can easily ship. Does anybody have experience selling their items this way? Any successes or failures with this method?

My thought is, if I set up a website to sell my stuff, and post a link to that webstore onto sites like Craigslist, etc., it's a much more professional experience. Maybe? No?
