Grouping items together isn't so bad but the starting price should be set by the people in attendance. Some auctioneers actually have some ethics, while a lot don't. You put in a bid for up to $2400 and got the items for $1900. That doesn't mean the auctioneer saved you $500. All it means is the auctioneer took advantage of you not being there. Too bad you didn't know someone who could have watched to see if anyone else opened the bid. You might have got the items for $1000 or less if no one was interested. I was at an auction for a big welding shop and although the auctioneer was pretty good, several people wanted the leather jackets sold seperately, but I didn't bid because I didn't need a dozen of them. I did buy 8 channel saw horses that were used to hold sheets of plywood for small items, for $7.50 a piece. One of the better deals I've got at an auction. I also got a straight Victor torch for a pipe beveler for $30 and some really good flow meters for $10 to $20 at the same auction. Dave
