My buddy was trying to pick up one of the dump trucks.... No go! I was a bit amazed they went so high. Too bad he doesn't live in Hawaii... the same trucks were going for $2500 - $4000

 

[srodocker]

yea they went way up there

 

[BFGOrdnance]

My buddy accidentally just bought two M929 Dump Trucks a few days ago out of CA. It's hilarious because that's exactly how I ended up accidentally getting two M923's. Bidding closed... thought I had lost so switched to another one... won it YES! OOOPS... also won the last one haha.

It's cool though because the trucks are in VERY good condition. It won't be hard for him to sell one. Getting them to Oregon is going to be a bit more spendy though.

Anyone need any 900 series engines, trannys, or transfer cases? send me a pm!

Brad must be coming back soon.

Did you see the price being asked for one of those Ft. Lewis dumptrucks? Guess I should have bid higher.

 

[srodocker]

yes....yes i did...

 

[Amer-team]

Seems like a lot for a truck that only goes 50 or 55, but it cost the government 84,000.

55 Gallons of used Motor oil.
$80.00 and you get to keep the 55 gallon drum.

 

[Amer-team]

It would take me almost that many gallons to come up and get it. Are you doing AFD again this year? I will be getting back on that again and need to put a list together. P

Everything at Lewis goes for way too much.
I'm bidding elsewhere from now on and paying shipping, I'll still come out ahead.

For instance...?

probably because its relatively close to high population densities and LOTS of military surplus buyers/ resellers in the area

eh Dan it's hit and miss, I did get my M1008 from Lewis for $1900 not to long ago. I think the larger trucks go for more due to logging use up there? Anyways good luck, if I can help preview anything on this side of the USA let me know.

Dan, I think the stuff at Lewis is going for just the right price. I have bid on several items and havent got them, so my wife is very happy. But I am coveting an 1101 trailer and it is depressing the price they bring out here and then see what they go for back east.

 

[BFGOrdnance]

I think it is very hit and miss with miss being more and more common. Still deals to be had, but you have to be patient. I still am amazed what some items sell for (ammo cans for instance). I have seen some things sell for considerably higher than Ebay BUY IT NOW prices (like Hardigg cases). No clue why.... I guess the secret's out.

Well I finally got Redrocket to on a ride with the trike club this last weekend. My daughter got to be the hack monkey. Lol

We had a good time despite the rain and hail.

There is one person in particular that buys most if not all of the ammo cans, strictly so no one else can, so he sets the local market price on them.

I've been looking at trailers, and trailers that, back east, would be lucky to get a bid on, are going for 1k$+ out here .....
