Well, today was interesting!
I went to the Cowarts Heavy Machinery Auction looking for stuff to buy and flip for a profit.
Last night I got NO sleep. I'm running on sugar and caffiene right now.
I hit the gun show, dropped off a few items with a price list with instructions on what to sell them for and tore up the interstate to get to the sale.
Lots of tractors, JD MF and IH were pretty prevalent. I saw a few Fords and a New Holland there. Oddly those went way below what they should have and the only items I could possibly have made money on were the one thing I couldn't haul back.

She thinks my tractor's sexy.
One thing that peaked my interest was this ATM machine.

That went NO RESERVE for $5. I wanted it for a while but then I came to my senses and said WHAT THE HELL AM I GOING TO DO WITH A DAMN ATM machine.
It would have made a nice statement from a parent to their child who repeatedly hits them up for cash though. But I have a sick sense of humor.
The stuff that STOLE the show were cargo trailers. Holy christ on a cracker.

All those trailers sold for retail money, if not higher.
This trailer in particular sold for $3500 JUST BECAUSE IT WAS BLACK. Insane.

So, after that went - I hit the gun show, flipped a few guns and came back home.
At the gun show, Katherine Harris was making a showing for her campaign. She looks pretty hot! And she's a republican. Rowr. Check this out:

Lessons learned:
ATM machines might look cool, but are a pain in the ass to move. But, they can be cheap!
People who go to auctions overpay on stuff. I'm in the wrong business.
Katherine Harris is hot. I'm voting for her.
