Anyone get anything good?
Someone got a steal on a browning trap gun that was poorly represented by the auction company.
Sadly, it wasn't me...

Default shouldnt have looked at this post

spent way too much money yesterday. Lots of small stuff for accessories. Wife bought the Pfaff sewing machine and Surger. Buyers premiums at 10% were not as bad as the last auction we bid on line.
Took a few chances by not seeing the stuff before buying but the prices were not terribly out of line. Auction fever must have taken over as we were watching late yesterday afternoon and a wet suit came up with hardly any bids so we bought it for $11.
Maybe for retriever training?? hehehehehe I am sure that wasn't the only questionable item as the invoice this morning was 3 pages long with a 4th page just for the total!!
Boat motor and trailer like I needed another hole in my head!

Picked up a book for less than $15, that is currently being listed for $100-150US on abebooks.
And a 10-shot magazine for my dad’s Winchester 490. Pretty sure that’ll be a rare item to find.
If everything shows up and shipping isn’t atrocious I’ll be happy.

Auctions ........ sometimes there are treasures. Years ago, My late father bought a Vintage Baretta Shotgun for $40. Not a super rare or special gun, but value at the time was >$1000 ...... sometimes you find great buys if the auctioneers aren't sharp.

Default No sale prices

Was a bit of an odd auction platform, no sale prices shown once item sold. I couldnt tell you what we paid for any item until invoice time... Other bids werent listed either, which is odd.

Default bids

Bid on a few, but did not win any. I had to go to work a shift near the end so couldn't play till the close.

Boat and trailer, Square D .38 Spl reloader, a couple Rem shotguns...
