Admiral Model TS-105 on Goodwill

[leadlike]

I think they've been doing them since about 2002. I had a friend who worked for Goodwill at the time they started them up. I believe an outside company ran the service, and if a Goodwill store signed up to do it, they had to submit so many items for auction per week or something like that. Problem with that is, as some stores quickly found out, they were sending their best stuff to this company leaving their stores with little to attract customers. In extreme cases, store profits were down, with only a few hundred dollars extra profit from the online auctions.

I enjoyed bidding on stuff with this site for the first year or so. As Kevin said, most aren't aware this site even exists. As a result, a lot of good stuff was selling waaaay below the Ebay prices. I picked up a Beaulieu 4008zm camera for about $100 with shipping, at a time when that camera was going for $400 on Ebay. Now, it seems prices have stabilized, so I don't check it out as often.
