<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joe2007, post: 240729, member: 1262&quot;]Personally I&#039;ve always liked farm auctions, since rural people had to be more self-sufficient they usually hoarded a lot of stuff making for good sales/auctions. Also there are a lot of multi-generation farm estates that sometimes have large accumulations of antiques that have been in family for a long time, that have just piled up over the generations. Many older farmers that remember the Great Depression, my grandfather included, hoarded a lot of stuff, not knowing what the future would bring.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve had some luck with urban auctions too. The best are the multi-generation accumulations here as well, sometimes in sketchy neighborhoods full of older dilapidated homes. One the largest accumulations I&#039;ve seen was in a three story Victorian that must have been packed full, floor to ceiling, from basement to attic. It had been untouched for twenty years after the resident had passed away and the out of state family left it sit for years.</p><p><br /></p><p>What are your thoughts/stories?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Joe2007[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
