Anyone near Norfolk/Chesapeake

[ATC]

I've never worked with GL before, so this is all new to me...

But I am currently the high bidder on an event (it is not vehicle related). There are a few pieces of pipe/tube that are a bit long, and the pictures don't give a good definition of length. If I can, I will be bringing a 16' car trailer (well, I think I have to with the weight we're talking about)

Just wondering if I can call the location, and they can walk out there and measure the longer pieces of tube for me?

If not, I've got no problem bringing a chop saw...


My second request....In the odd chance I cannot make it, I was wondering if anyone out that way can pick it up for me and hold it until a weekend. Event ends 12/14 (Tues.). I have this coming Friday off work (12/17) and no more vacation days left. Holidays are our busy time at work. I'm really hoping I can get the invoice by then and be out there the 17th.

Everything should fit on a car trailer and/or Deuce-and-bigger trucks.

Please PM me for more details if you are able and willing to pick these up for me if I cannot. I can compensate you for your troubles.

You have 10 business days...and if you call and communicate with them maybe a few days longer.

Thanks for the good news. I hope to do business with them in the future if they are that good to work with...

I was outbid this morning, so it looks like I will not be getting the items. I bid $200 more than I wanted to 2 days ago, and it just jumped another $200 more this morning. Dang

yeah bidding on there is nuts but you got to figure the big dogs or big companys buy from there too!

It's getting a little like ebay?
Some folks will outbid you even if it means more than it's worth?

Ya'll got that right! I was biddin on this one:

7110 - Office Furniture at Government Liquidation


However, $1090 for (2) 3'x3'x1" plates and (1) 3'x3'x2" plate is outrageous! I just want a piece of frickin steel to make a welding table
