Default Anyone going to the Rock Island Auction?

We are heading up tomorrow to the viewing day for the Rock Island Auction. Anyone else attending any of the days?

I'd have to fly from Boston to Illinois. Sorry, just not in the cards for me.

I am not going. Went to one a while ago and it was information overload. Have fun.... find a good buy and bit wisely. Good luck.

I wish. I love those people. I have bought several times from them and hope to do so many more times

I placed two low ball bids, but ya can't win if you don't play. Two Parkers that I would like to own but not enough to really roll the dice. Good luck to all bidders.
