LOL! Yesterday my dad took me and my brother to a aucnion(can't spell it) at a storage place... If people there don't pay their bill to keep their stuff there, it's gets aucnioned off... well my dad was planing on watching but when they opened the unit... 5 of the 7 guys left, because the whole thing was filled with things in boxs... thing was out of a box there, didn't know what was in them... so it was my dad and another guy... My dad goes and bids $1.... the guy goes $2.... my dad went $3... My dad got the all the stuff there for $3 + tax... After the others left we start to open them... We were there the whole day and got thru 1/3 of them... There were for the most part Cloths, old news paper, and tons of books... but there were also... Old collectibles(worth $$$), post cards of NY before the attact on the Twin Towers, plates(Plastic, glass, cramic), Kitcin ware, pictures(nice ones),umbelas(one box had 20 of them), some wonderful pins and gold jewly, and bags... hand bags, purses, coins holder, and gym bags... We must of had 50 or more all together that day.... but there was so much junk we didn't want that we had to put most of it back in the unit because it wouldn't fit in the dumpster....
went back today and did a little more... about half the unit left now.. more of the same.... but this time we got a small tv, 2 elecric fans, exspanof looking piknic basket, and old time looking radio, very old time looking radio... took all that...
My dad is planing the sell some of the things on e-bay(All the books we find and a few other things)... but All of this stuff and only paid $3.18... GOLD MINE!!! if those other guys that were there yesterday knew... they would poibly kick them selfs... ROFL!
