Allied Liquidators located at 24355 Telegraph, Flat Rock, MI:
This is the first auction I had went to in my new career as a re-seller. They have mostly new merchandise. Monday is mostly a dealer auction, having to buy quantity of items. Somtimes you might find some of the more expensive things ($5 -$10) going in pairs, or alone to get more sales. No credit cards are taking, this is a CASH only auction.
So what kind of products will you find on Monday? Just about anything. This past week they had 5 sellers. The first one had some gift sets, towels, collector knives, scrubs, t-shirts and pants with some novelty stuff thrown in. The second seller was a "Clear Out" seller. This is a cheap everything goes type of seller. You had to take the case of whatever was sold, but it was pennies on the dollar. I purchased wheat noodles for 3c a bag, and nice gold money envelops for 1c each. Some simple orange cleaner and a windex type cleaner for $1 each. You can get some good deals if your careful, but some of the sellers will be tricky since there is no preview at this auction, you don't get a chance to see what is upcoming, so they might run a generic product, and then the genuine product later in the auction.
Friday's and Saturdays are usually pretty similar. Lots of the Monday things get recycled and put back up for more $ less quantity for the general public. Diane the auctioneer also sells alot of new merchandise from "Shelf Pulls" from K-Mart and other stores. Sometimes this is a great way to get that item cheap. Sometimes the Monday sellers come in with new trucks. Things you can find are, Digital Camera's (cheapie), Digital photo frames (nice), Mp3 players, Food (Soup/canned goods) Candy (Dove chocolate, candy bars, lil debbie), Clothes, Kitchen/Bath items, (Towels, rags, cleaner) Lots of kids toys cheap, cheap kids/tween jewelry, some novelty items as well.
Overall this is a nice friendly auction. If your patient you can get some stellar deals. Mostly the deals are just good enough to suck you in. I'd recomend this place to start out as well, it is very newbie friendly.
