regopit Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Has anyone had the chance to attend Peak Building supply auction. They roll in too Baltimore 4 times a year. I went to the preview to day. They had 10 of the rolling Husky tool chest the you see in the TIA videos. If you ever get a chance to attend one you should check it out. Last March I picked up $4,000 worth of Trex for $450 to redo my deck at my house. Check out the wed site they have some photos and list on what will hit the Auction Block Saturday. http://www.peakauction.com/full_content.php?article_id=1127&full=yes&pbr=1#top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regopit Posted December 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 The tool chest went for $150.00 / $175.00 each the frist two went for $175.00 the rest $150 each. I picked up 18 pieces of Trex Transcend Fascia 5/8" x 12" x 12' for the deck around my pool $105.00 retail cost would have been $2,016 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 That's awesome Regopit. We never have anything like that in the Granite State. I'd be bankrupt if we did though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

regopit Posted December 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Might have to take a road trip. Sat. March 15, 2014St. Charles, ILKane County Fairgrounds I have really gotten some great deals at the auction but you have to know what you are bidding on. Do your research; go to the preview to see what they got then start checking retail and wholesale prices. Do not forget they have a Buyer’s Premium 10% for cash and debit cards 13% for credit cards here in Maryland they have to charge sales tax also. I have been going to this for 13 years now and the biggest problem I have people get to caught up in it. They start the bid to high Let the auctioneer bring it down to their lowest price then throw out a bid a few bucks lower to get the ball rolling then you have the ones that really need that item and pay more then retail .
