Heh, it's obvious I need to do a lot of research. I've been going through all the old threads here and articles on other sites, so soon I should have at least some idea. Though I do have a couple of questions off the top of my head:

Are there any normal household items in particular that are good or extremely bad to collect? Are aluminum extension ladders a waste of time?
As an auctioneer I wouldn't mind catering to scrappers to an extent. What attracts you to auctions? What would you like us to do differently?



Thank you all for your warm welcome and quick responses!
