Default OT - This looks like a nice unique estate sale, south of Houston

Anybody any experience dealing with these brokers on the loadout and
their requirements for same for larger pieces? I do a lot of farm
auctions but there we just handle it ourselves w/ a bunch of the guys
will all pitch in with generally the seller who'll have a frontend
loader and away we goes...

These guys want insurance and all sorts of rigamarole; not sure how that
works...couple pieces I'd be very interested in that so far haven't
brought much action as yet that would possibly still be good deal even
at the distance if the base price were low enough to pay for the hassle
of the loading/shipping...


That Northfiled jointer I was looking at on the Machinery Max site... I found it via Dallas Craigslist, posted by the owner, Phil Koch. He included a phone number. http://www.pkiwood.com/ ... very nice work! I had phoned Phil and he would load for $35.

Yeah, a loader/shipper was available via Machinery Max site. So for, I've never needed that kind of service.

As for as the Inwood sale, contact them, directly, and see if they offer/have loading assistance, rather than a dedicated service, if you buy.
