    I used to sell alot of stuff at auction when I was buying storage units. That was before storage units started going for crazy money. I also used to curb shop and dumster dive and sell the things I found at auction, if they didn't sell or if the auctionier didn't want the stuff in his auction then I would scrap it. That's how I got started scrapping. My friend found a set of 6 cast iron frying pans in a dumster and sold them at auction for 65.00. Not bad for something someone threw in the dumster.
