Teufel Hunden Wholesale, Columbus, Ohio call by appt only!!!

Well, I am usually in the wrong place at the wrong time, but not on this one.


I was traveling last Wednesday to visit family in eastern Ohio. I got a call from a "giddy" gimp who was describing the piles of surplus that surrounded him. Luckily, my current route around I-270 would actually put me within a mile of the Teufel Hunden warehouse in about an hour.
Woo hoo! :jumpin: Hold on Gimp, I'll be right there.

I grabbed an armload of miscellaneous stuff for a decent price. Thanks Bill! [thumbzup]

Wish I had got my jet car finished in time I would be out there with you guys today! 14 hour dive in a normal car was a little too much.

Yesterday was my first of what I'm sure will be many visits.

I met Jackie and Bill and enjoyed looking around the first warehouse. :)

It turns out out my eyes were a lot bigger than my wallet and I got off lucky with only spending about $145 to get a few items I just couldn't live without. Funny, I walked up to 4 things laying on the floor that no one knew what they were. Being a former naval aviation guy I recognized in-flight refueling probes. I think they must be for a helo as they manually extend via a gear drive and they would make a cool wall decoration behind someone's bar or even a flag pole. Too cool.

Being a chain whore I had to buy some of the new 10 foot 1/2 in chains. (They are $35 each.) I got some small tools and ammo cans.

Then we went to one of their other yards to look at a Ditch Witch trencher so I could tell Bill what I thought it was worth. (I started running Ditch Witch trenchers about 45 years ago with my Dad.)

He has a nice looking complete M101A1 trailer there as well.

Good trip and then I stopped at the Ditch Witch dealer to pick up some teeth for the one I have in my barn. :)

I appreciate you guys stopping in yesterday!! 2800 takes the ditch witch everything works on it... Let's just do a package deal because I think that thing would look great in the bed of that M101a1 for 3500.

Ok, I didn't make it up there on the 8th as my trailer recovery had to be postponed for a week, but I was able to stop there today and all I can say is wow. I didn't have time to go through everything as much as I wanted to, but I was able to pick up several things I have needed for a while and I got a pretty decent price on them as well. I met Bill, the guy in charge, and also met up with Gimpyrobb. It would have been very easy to spend way too much money, so it was probably a good thing I had to get to Whitehall to pick up my trailers. If you are traveling near there it is definitely worth a stop.

Does anybody know if this place is still doing surplus sales to the public? I'm heading to Whitehall for a load of shelter dollies tomorrow and would like to stop in again.
How about a phone number for them? His opening post says call for appointment but lists no number.

Never made it up there yesterday. Bad weather out this way. Still no answer when I call though. Will be 2 weeks till I can try again.

Ok. Finally got hold of Bill at the warehouse today and they are definitely still open. I spent way too much money but got a lot of cool stuff loaded on the truck. Lots of stuff to buy. If you are ever in the Columbus area it is definitely worth a stop.
