Does anyone know of any auctions in the New England area? I heard there is one this weekend at Atlantic City in NJ but I can't find any info about it. Thanks for the replies Joel

Joe;, do an online search for auctions then narrow it down to your area. You can also look in the yellow page directory for auction companies.
I buy a large percentage of my equipment from auction companies. I go to 4 or 5 at least every month. In fact today I went to preview equipment at two upcoming sales. Several years ago I made as much buying and selling things as I did "working" for a living.

gslam88- thanks for the lyons site. I was down in Ct this past weekend for the petrowsky auctions. All I have good to say about that auction is that my wife and I were able to go to the mohegan sun casino. The equipment at the auction was going for such an unreasonable price it was sickening. Used trailers were selling for almost or over what you can buy them for new:eek:
Thanks again Joel

Js,


Funny thing... I did not make it to Petrowsky untlil late sat afternoon... I went up to Boston and RI looking for some equipment.... I am sorry to hear that the prices were higher than they should be.... I have seen that before at Petrowsky....
