Sale

[mcdenney]

Not sure what you call it but when does the department have their sale of stuff which has been taken during violations? Also, do they typically have jon boats and would this be a good place to get a good used jon boat? Thanks.

Looks like you missed the boat, it was May 5th.

[longtimegone]

Wow, sorry I missed that one!

[rcb216]

I have always heard you could get some deals on some of this stuff. When is the next one? I see it says spring sale. Is there a summer or fall sale?

[CanisMajor]

These surplus auctions are listed on the Kentucky Afield calendar, along with lots of other great info. Subscribe to Kentucky Afield and you will get the calendar. Next auction is scheduled for Monday October 27.

[6.5x55swedish]

I go... but deals are few and far between; alot of the stuff is just garbage. Here is the link to the results. I wanted the M38 jeep, but it when well beyond what I would have payed for it.

I have to wonder about the guy who paid $160 for a Hi-Point 9mm. I wonder if it was it plated in gold or came embossed with diamonds?

May have actually belonged to him and he was bound to "Get it back."

[mcdenney]

May have actually belonged to him and he was bound to "Get it back."

That is the case on the guns a lot of the time from what I have been told.

[rcb216]

I can't believe what some of that stuff was going for! If it said $0 was it not bid on or nobody wanted it?

Was that JeeP pretty nice ?

[6.5x55swedish]

Was that JeeP pretty nice ?

Arn't all jeeps nice:D I should have taken a picture, but it was well used to say the least. I am pretty sure it was the one that I have seen down at Robinson Forest a few times. Could probably be restored, but it would have been hard to make it original. Tub was shot.

Your smoker is nicer:D

[raktrakr]

I go... but deals are few and far between; alot of the stuff is just garbage. Agreed, I've been twice and the dealers stink it up pretty bad on the guns.

[bowfisher89]

I know I missed the oct. 27th one when will the next one be?

[woodhippy]

Heck, I'll take a belt sander and those 2 microscopes and go ahead and throw those dive bags in to..lol

[6.5x55swedish]

I know I missed the oct. 27th one when will the next one be?

Probably May or June....It is held twice a year, spring and fall.

[Go Fast]

I've been to some of the state sales and alot of the stuff is junk from setting around waiting on all the paperwork to get done so they could sell it.

[Suthrn2k8]

Ive heard that most stuff there goes way too high due to people trying to get their buddys gun back that they borrowed etc.. May try to go to next years though just to check it out.
