Was kinda short on cash, but one of my more favorite local caravans was going on, so I went anyway.
Surprisingly small crowd. Probably the smallest of the year, yet still 20+ peeps.
Units went for ok prices, hardly any newbees there, so no crazy overbidding.
Ended up buying a 5 x 10 for $90 and another for $1. Only took the $1 because it was right next to the other and I figured for a buck I take a chance. People were stunned how low the $90 went. I almost took it for my opener at $50 but another regular just 'Could not let me have it at that.'
Looked like several cases might hold high end electronics, but ended up most were empty. Some bread and butter stuff and the 2 monster TVs make me back 1/3 just in recycle value. Should do ok on that one, but no home runs. The $1 mostly some trash. Might turn it into $100.
Not too bad.
Skipped a auction to clean some of the stuff out and went to another one later today. Crowd increased quite a bit, some other auctions south of us ended and we got some overflow from there.
Ended up getting a pretty packed 10x10 for $140. Total stunner. Everybody was shocked. A Literal fleamarket unit. Foldup tables, canopy, home made racks and tons of totes and boxes.
I bought resellers units before and got mostly burned. They just never store valuables in those units. I just bid, because wanted some of those tables and racks.
A quick scan revealed a near new pop up canopa, 3 portable DVD players, real nice canon camera NIB and TONS of fairly nice clothes. Bundled jeans, and most totes I could not even open. Saw some new knick knack fleamarket junk $0,50-$1 stuff. But LOTS of it, so that will add up nicely.
Sold a half shell mannequin torso to another bidder right on the spot for $20. They actually retail for le3ss, but he wanted it, and who am I to turn down $$ LOL.
Just based on what I saw I am sure I will make EASY $1,000 on it and I only saw maybe 15-20% of the stuff so far.
Overall definitely one of my better days.
