Title: What can I expect at an auction?
Post by: monkeybomb on April 15, 2005, 01:10:17 pm

I'm not going until may 7 but I'm already excited about going to my first auction.  I'm going to the Costa Mesa Super Auction.

How many games are there on average?  Are they in decent condition?  Are there tricks to getting a good deal?  Are there dumb rookie mistakes?  How long does the whole thing take?  Can I fit a dynamo cab in a Nissan Quest?  Am I the only one that turn into a twelve year old over this stuff?

I'd really love to know your general experiences.
