I made about $1600 this past summer by taking pics of the stuff I had and didn't want, then posting them on craigslist. I called it my yard sale on line. Happy to clean out my garages and get rid of junk that I haven't used in 20 years. Don't miss a thing. Love the room I made too. This is what I spent the money on. JD GT275, tiller and 48 inch mower, $1600. George   [Reply]  [No Email]

Lots of folks have just waited so long they finally decided to pull the triger. At least that is might take on things.   [Reply]  [No Email]

My newest truck, '02 Dodge 3/4 ton, 4x4, extended cab, 8' bed, Cummins, auto, pretty much loaded...$27,000 then, and talk about sticker shock. For better or worse, I am clearly out of touch. I should have been born wealthy, good looking, and had dozens of girfriends, but I missed the boat on all of it. Mark   [Reply]  [No Email]

Said one was extremely slow today - lots of lookers, not much cash changed hands. Has been to fiber fests, not selling much wool products, either..... Think it has a lot to do with the economy and people are reluctant to buy the extras that they used to.   [Reply]  [No Email]

Some joked, but the senior sales guy said that it was slower than he would like, better than it has been, but added that sales typically slump during the holidays. I'm not a sales guy, but would figure that sales would be up during the holidays when people are most likely to be in a buying mood if there ever was one. I noticed this on their lot. Two very nice brand spanking new F350 crew cabs, 8' beds, Powerstroke diesels, 4x4, nice paint jobs, and although I didn't sort through the list of options...$57,000 each. I remember when Corvettes were going for $60,000, which makes me wonder what they must be going for now. A real nice pair of heavy duty trucks...$57,000 each. Good golly Ms. Mollie. Don't get me wrong, as an old Dodge truck guy, I want to see Ford do well, very well since they didn't take a government bailout, and if I have to buy a new pickup, will be a Ford or foreign and will not consider another new Dodge or Chevy, but...$57,000!!! HOLY SMOKES!!! Am I ever out of touch. Mark   [Reply]  [No Email]

The rebates, discounts, and other incentives totalled up to over $5,000, which sounds impressive, but I can remember when a guy could buy a brand new 1/2 ton for LESS than $5,000.   [Reply]  [No Email]

I'm expecting things might perk up after November 6th, but only if there is a change in administration. Who can afford to pay twice the price they paid 4 years ago for anything?   [Reply]  [No Email]

[Georgia] I figured my sales were off 25% ?? no sold more than I have ever at that sale. It was a BUYERS sale. A lot of stuff if they wanted it did good,but if little/no intrest,you had to work,and then might not get a decent bid. Going to buy & sell @ one tommorow,auctioneer is worried as there are several more close. Whatever is whatever,some people think the election might be the problem ????   [Reply]  [No Email]
