Yep, there is one guy around here that took over 3 hours to sell 2 16' trailers worth of barn cleanings a few months ago. Good thing was most folks left before noon mad cause it was take'n so long, some of the old farts had fun make'n $1 bids on junk and try'n to see who could make the biggest pile with a $20 bill, and by the time they got to any of the good stuff I was able to pick up a few things I wanted for less than scrap price. Bad thing was I didn't know thats the way he was and I had to set through all the "We got a good 10' nylon rope here boys, only used a few times, who'll give $1?!?!?!"
The most popular auctioneer around here does small stuff last. If it's an estate sale and momma or the kids want the barn/shop/sheds/garage cleaned out they will set stuff on pallets. I was at one of his sales two weeks ago where they had over 150 pallets of stuff. Each one piled up with as much stuff as you could put on them. He sold them all in about an hour. "We got a pallet of planter parts, who'll give me $10? $10? Nobody? We got a pallet of combine parts and a pallet of planter parts, who'll give me $10? Got ten, who'll give me $15, 15, 15? Sold $10." And he went about as fast as you just read that.
