racinfarmer Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 (edited) I'd like to have a Sno-Twister, just not at the price it takes to get a nice one. It would just sit on a rack anyway. Edit, there is a Scorpion Brut with no motor on that sale bill. That is the one I'd be the most cereal about bringing home with me. The pair of RV's would be nice to have too.

That has been my experience as well. The more publicized the auction the worse it is. I have watched cars and tools go for stupid money. Just smh.

The Fap-off dealer here won't warranty stuff that you didn't buy new anymore, yet people still bid new prices for it. Crapsman too.

When I'd win a lot of something, I'd get dirty looks from the regulars. I think my best score was a beer flat full of pre-Irwin Vice Grips, like new. The one that really pissed off the regulars was my vise. There was 3 on the auction, and I bought one for one of my race trailers. I was going to bid on the big old Wilton Bullet vise for home, but it went for more then a new one (a new one was around $900-1000 at the time) and come hell or high water, they were not letting me win two vises in 1 night.

I used to go to a lot of estate sales with a good friend that’s an antique dealer. Depends on who shows up. And there will always be a few items bid up real high.

See all the estate sales here there is no bidding at all, you can buy the item with the listed price on it or offer something lower, a vise like Farmer was talking about sold at Swanson's estate sale 3 years ago for $25, it was the estate of a friend of mine who passed away, Al Swanson, there were 100's of tools there, he was a retired high school shop teacher from Illinois, he built a wood working shop here at his home after retirement.

Cold War Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Last estate sale they had a 80’s. Rivera , hadn’t run in over 10 years. Needed a lot, but decent miles. Would of been a good gamble at 500- 800 bucks . 2500? Pffft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the order you are allowed in, so they'll maybe let the first 5 in for 5-10 minutes, then 5 more and so on until it is everyone else.

Hmmm, that's odd, here they hope enough show up to buy everything that's for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
