Bidding on a Lathe
A lathe is one of those things a homebuilder might want, but like me,
be reluctant to pay for, new. So when I spotted a Southbend listed on a Texas School District Surplus Auction on friday, I asked the auctioneer to bid on my behalf to $222 sight unseen. At 150 miles distance, it was too far to go on spec. This was a low bid, no doubt. I called to find out how the bidding went today. It made over $700, which is the right price for a smaller Southbend in reasonable condition. Sigh.... Still, I tried! Brian W
