Title: Equipment and Rock Auction
Post by: olgguy on July 24, 2018, 01:51:25 PM
Here in Illinois we have 3 auctions during the summer. This was the second for this season, I missed the first because I was in Arizona. The first Gene type grinder had a Reserve, and opened at 150.00, but nobody bid. The second grinder opened at 150.00 and sold for 250.00. I didn't see what condition the wheels were in. A nice professional ring sizer went for 60.00. I missed the price on the 18" slab saw.

The auction is not a club event, although club members from many clubs put their equipment and materials up for auction. The auction has inspection of items for sale from 8:00 to 9:00 AM. and registration for a bidding number. Then the fun begins. Send me your address and I will have them send you the next flyer.
