I went to an auction sale today for miscellaneous items.  You see, they were auctioning off items that were on trailers of trucks that were in accidents.

For some of those items, the damage was minimal.  A scuff on a couch, a dent on the side of the fridge and other minor damage.  Typically, these items went for close to their selling price, but there were still bargains to be found.

There was one lot that really caught my eye.  You see, they had a lot of Rubber tracks for Bobcat mini excavators that we could use at our business.  The opening bid was really low compared to the retail (and even wholesale) price, so I decided to bid.

There was a short bidding war between me and another gentleman, but in the end, I won.  The price that I paid was well below the price on the market, so it made my day.
