[SEL] Wally-World & Engine Racks--Long

[Dave Ernst]

I've been wanting to do this project for some time. I finally got to the 
point I had no floor space to store more engines and that was hampering my 
desire in this hobby. So, off to the auction at Wall-Mart. This was a small 
town then came the box store. A few years later the store wasn't big enuf so 
now we have a Super Box Store, with the contents of the old one sold at 
auction.
It's interesting at auctions where there are lots of the same thing such as 
shelving. The bidding starts on say one unit of shelving and ends with "how 
many do you want at that price?" First pallet rack (2 ends, 6 cross pieces) 
went for $280. The guy took about 6 of them. Next bid, $280? No, $250? no, 
$225? yea, some sold. Next, $200? no an so on. I bought 5 for $50 per.
Put them up yesterday and now have lots of room. Sorry I didn't do this long 
ago.
