I agree with Les.., get ahold of the attorney general's office and wind their clock. I would guess that the bank is in violation of some laws regarding auction sales, hopefully your state has laws covering auctions. If auctioneers have a license number in your state, then, you should have the laws. That is one problem with rookies like banks trying to run sales.

If they had a problem with the item offered, then all bids should have been returned, unopened, with an explaination, and a good one at that. On a deal like you described, a smart and that doesn't appear to be the case here, seller would have dumped that machine on any bid they could get. As an aside, I have put bids in on equipment at some NY state farms in this area, but never sucessful.

Not much one can do about that one. Such is life!!
