was exactly in that same boat last summer. bidding on a old buzz saw. i really didnt want it too bad, but i thought someone might so i bid it up to $50. Another fellow bid sixty and bought it. Laying in another pile was the other half of it,since i was bidding on both piles i didnt say anything at first. but when i didnt win the first i asked the fellow if he knew what he had bought so he could get the rest of it. I got a smart alek answer that it wasnt his first rodeo and the crowd laughed. I bought the second pile for less than scrap price,made sure he knew in front of everyone i now owned half his machine, and that it wasnt for sale, and loaded it up. i got scrap ,he got scrap, he could have had a working machine if he hadnt been a idiot about it. Would have gladly gave it to him. [Reply]   [No Email]
