Yes i I picked up both a 39 a and pre safety 357 marlin at an estate auction got them both for 200 less than the 357 were selling for. First time I saw a gun auction thing were not sky high.

Bought a literal pickup load Thursday evening at an estate sale. Bought traps and new or like new duck and goose decoys for pennies on the dollar. Bought shotgun and.22 ammo at basically 1/2 price.
The guns were high as a cats back, but most everything else sold from dirt cheap to well worth the money.

I had hit a few, One a lady was selling off her late husbands things, got a Stihl chainsaw looked almost new. $25, had another one i bought a few things at, they just setting things up. fishing reels penny's on the dollar. I'm in need of having a big sale here now. to many hobbies.

Yep, 16' aluminum jet boat on a new trailer, with a brand new Yamaha 40hp jet (60hp prop), for $1750.
The other guys looking at it thought the engine was seized because the pull rope would not pull, they didn't notice it was in gear and it's designed to not let you pull it when in gear.
The boat had sat a few years and was covered with black mold/algae which is typical if you store something outside in the shade in the PNW. It looked terrible, stopped by a car wash on the way home and cleaned it right up.

WOW the trailer alone is worth that

Not generally, here it's yard sales mostly, recycled crap....occasionally something decent, but you got the sharpshooters going to the sales early in the morning....to buy stuff for THEIR yard sales, lol.

Missed one yesterday on the east side of the state. My nephew was there, sold a NIB Remington 700 in 17 rem for $1,250. Someone got a deal!
