This past year was a big one for auctions in my area. I went to five.
One, friends of mine were there looking at haywagons (as I was). When I found which one they wanted, it made sense to me to stay out of it. They didn't bid on things wanted, either.
Another one, I bought a bunch of old shields because I wanted a particular Ford one. Didn't really need it, but it was the swing up kind which my then-biggest tractor didn't have. $15. When I was loading them I found I had the U shaped PTO shield for the Deere flail mower another fellow bought. I found him and handed it to him. Very happy guy. Sure surprises people when you do that.
The last auction I bought a big old Ford tractor, my now biggest. When I went to drive it home I found the proof meter cable had disappeared after it was sold. Did get to use the shield I bought earlier for this tractor.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
