Picked up a lot of great tools. Seen some friends. Having some cold beers now and waiting for the neighbor to get dinner ready for us lol. I bought him a battery charger so he's cooking. Haven't had a stick welder in a long time just happened to be a basic model there that basically looked like new I got for $100. Just in time as I got some rusty projects coming. All in all a pretty good auction. Except for the owners who I was standing by and they were raising hell that they were just giving things away. Wow. They lived in the country for many years and autions all over the place they'd never been to one? The other odd thing is that the woman that lived there had her name and social security number engraved on almost everything. There was a super nice old wood table...........and a 6" long social number right in the middle of it. Still gota go back tomorrow and pick up my new shop beer fridge. Been needing one. $20. Couldn't pass that up.

I must already be drunk how did a sad face emoticon end up in the perfect place on that I didn't do it, just showed up. Then maybe I did and can't recall.
Been in the heat all day.

We went to an equipment auction today where people seemed to think they were at a store paying close to new retail for used stuff. Made up for it a little when we went home, found a decent chipper at a yard sale cheap.

Hi Lee.....I hate it when that happens! Some of the farmers around here have bottomless pockets it seems. Yesterday was pretty good though I got a $340 stick welder for $100 and it looks like the most use it's had is sitting in the corner. Also picked up an older air compressor that works and is built really well for $60, horizontal. I'm happy with it. Waiting on the neighbor to get here to go help me with that fridge. It's an ancient whirlpool kinda cool.

Sounds like you went to the right auction.
