the auctions are so weird. one minute you have a person paying $20k for a restored Wayne 100B... the next minute a condition 8 Sinclair Aircraft sign is going for only $3500. So weird.
I bought one lot today, and felt like i got it for about half price. But yes, the pumps were laughable

I wish they would show memorabilia items selling but they never do.

Bryce- Yes I made a similar comment to Julie when I was looking at results. Some really good stuff seems to go under the money. Then a fantasy clock brings 4500.00. I really didnt even look today.

That sign I heard was 24ft long. Big sign, tough to place in your house for sure.

That's when you really start throwing your hand up and making mistakes. I learned that early on.

32K for a tall 39???
I guess Rod Serling is the auctioneer and Bozo's doing the bidding!!
One thing about this hobby, it's always good for a laugh.

The alcohol does seem to flow fairly freely there. Can't blame them, if I had an insane amount of money to burn and a few zombies in me I would be the one y'all would be talking about.
