Police Auctions Online

Tuesday January 6, 2004
Want to find a really hot item -- literally? Well, I guess the items aren't hot anymore, but were once upon a time. Property Room auctions off property from Police Departments around the country -- items that are unclaimed or where the owner is not known. And as you can imagine, just about everything will show up for sale at one time or another. Right now there aren't too many collectible type items for sale, but you never know just when that valuable cookie jar (that someone dipped his hand into once too often) will show up for sale.

Items really run the gamut from a load of bikes closing at around $15. each, to old vcrs and and car stereos currently at a buck each! There are a few collectibles, lots of jewelry and a ton of electronics. This auction reminds of what eBay used to be, when it was a lot of fun to surf around!
