Oh sure... I've only spent the last six months if my life out there, and NOW the good stuff is going on when I'm home again. Hmmmm...

Re: Great stuff available at CAPS!
Almost everything sold such as:
Standard D - It was a bit of a project machine. The cabinet had been poorly refinished with an incorrect banner decal. The gear cover was missing and the mandrel was stiff because of a swelling pot metal bearing so it sold in the parking lot for $250 with no horn.
The maroon Gem came with a black Gem M/G horn and a nice Gem B lid with a banner decal. We decided to sell the parts. The Gem only sold for $430 in the parking lot. The very nice black Gem horn sold for $150 and the very nice banner decal Gem B lid is still available.
The Vic V with large oak horn drew lots of attention in the parking lot. When a potential buyer waned to try it out, we realized it had a broken spring. It sold late Saturday for a discounted $2000.
The very nice two minute cylinders sold thanks to the ad in the Trader section. We also sold almost all the additional cylinders. The last of them sold for about $2 each.
All the various horns sold quickly mostly in the parking lot. They ranged from some decent after market M/G horns to horns missing the cone ends.
We did not sell the Columbia BY with spruce horn and matching base cabinet. A potential buyer described it as a "diamond in the rough" but did not make an offer. I plan to do some restoration and it will look like a million bucks.
78's sold in the parking lot at $3 each, all day Saturday and well into Sunday at $1 each. The last of them, maybe a pile 1.5 feet high sold for $10 total.
It was tons of fun. Jerry Blais
