Wait, you didn't send this to @mmcmdl did you?

Some nice machines and some nice tooling/metrology, but as with many auctions prices on some items out of whack. Also the typical rusty items and mis-labelled (I aught to know: I'm the King of Labelling!)

I'd be all over that auction if I was closer, lots of "lucky dip" lots currently going for peanuts. Don't see any prices too far out of the ordinary, though current prices are largely irrelevant. It's what things are on the close that matter!

Couple things there that might be interesting to me .

I see they are doing the trick of multiplying your bid times the number of items in the picture to drive up the price on some lots. At least they are not charging a rigging fee for hand carry items like a recent auction near me, I decided not to bid on anything at that one.

Keeping an eye out on this . I figure the mills will all go for $2800 or north of that with buyers fees and taxes etc . Seems that has been the going price around here for quite some time . That little Feeler lathe is worth watching so far . Although I just sold my Hardinge , the garage is longing for a smallish lathe once again .
