My brother in law recently got on the auction kick as a hobby. He goes to small estate auctions looking for stuff to use or to sell. He doesn't need the money, but it's a fun distraction for him on the weekends.
Well, a couple weeks ago he and his son, who works with him in his painting contracting business went to a small auction looking for some office stuff. They came away with 2 file cabinets for $2.50 each. Can't beat that price with a stick...right?
Well......when they got them home and started cleaning out all the old hanging files that the old guy (deceased) who had previously owned them left they found a couple surprises in the back. A Colt Frontier Scout .22 revolver, and an S&W Trooper .357 mag with holster. They were in almost new condition. My brother in law took the .357 and his kid got the .22.
Man.....why can't this kinda stuff happen to me??
