about 6 years ago I bought 3 gaylords of computer scrap on gov. surplus from eglin afb for $50. Every thing e or metal scrap I have bid on in the last 2 yrs has gone for about 4 or 5 times scrap price thanks to "reality" shows like Pickers and storage wars. figgure I will just wait till those buyers cant get rid of it and buy it from them for the real price

Theres not a whole lot in my area, however a technical college has a bunch of old cassette players, tvs, vcrs, overhead projectors, etc...only in individual auctions. Does anyone know a way to contact them through the listing to possibly make a offer on all the items as a lot?
|
|
The listings around here usually have a contact name, number and email. If something is not moving it wouldn't hurt to ask them to "lot" it up. If something doesn't have a bid in the final hours I have seen them lower the opening price, so watch for that too.
