Default Re: Did you know that your local colleges have auctions?

I receive a list of inventory every month and if I see something on their I need I place a bid, then wait to see if I won it.

At NMSU a pallet of computers and televisions average about $50. I have spent as much, on a pallet, as $25.00.

So check out your local colleges, if your near one, and find out when they hold their auctions.

Have a great weekend everyone
AJ,
This is a great tip about colleges. I would not have thought of that. Since I am setting up my business this is good to know.
