So if anyone is wondering what happens when a car dealer goes out of business, just keep an eye open for auctions, especially GM and Chrysler dealers. I tagged along with my father to an auction on Saturday since he wanted to buy the alignment machine and the Chrysler dealer in Signal Hill closed shop. I’m not sure if the auction house had plants in the group since the folks were bidding up stuff to close to new price levels. The auction had some new stuff but mostly used stuff, like office furniture, tool sets and used automotive lubricants. Personally, I thought the auction house owner was being a dick when he yelled at a guy to knock it off when the guy bid $1.00 for a lot of used stuff in unidentified bottles. And believe me, the stuff looked overpriced at $1.00.
(Really, this post should have pictures but I totally forgot to take pictures with the phone. I didn’t have any coffee or tea that morning so I wasn’t very alert.)
