That is a joke around here!!!!

You have to watch some of the auctioneers as some of them will have you bidding against yourself or pulling bids against you out of the air.

This same family was having an auction of a house that had belonged to the wifes grandparents. They all of a sudden started bidding against my farmer buddy that was trying to buy the place for his son, saying they had decided they wanted to keep the place.

It ended up costing my buddy a an extra 10 grand over where the auction had stalled out.

Here, they have to post 2 legal ads...stating that contents of XXX is going to be sold at auction on X date. Facility cannot enter it. On the X time, it's a crap shoot....let the buyer beware....only time I've ever done this and will probably quit while I'm ahead......my other units were nothing but personal stuff....pics/clothes....ratty household stuff....sad....when ya think of the dreams the people had.............that's life.
