I have seen my share of high opening prices but $1000.00 for scrap wooden boxes seems a little wacky. No handles, hinges, hasps or use just empty plywood crates!

Everything here is that way - and in the big city of Charlotte - it is even more!
An extra half cent for "Uncle Roy" who is a lot like Uncle Sam.
Taxes: How much money did you earn? Great, send it in!
Is that "Monroe" in your location NC?

No It's Monroe Ga, I guess there's a lot of Monroes out there so it causes some confusion lol

It’s just a misunderstanding. Some really nice hand-crafted artisanal mahogany wood storage containers are packed inside those shabby plywood crates.

Maybe it's an inside job....
- "Empty" wooden crates that aren't really empty.
- High opening bid keeps the riff-raff away.
- Your uncle Bob bids and wins it at $1K
- When he gets them home finds they're full of NVGs or something.
- Profit.

I had had that thought, as well. Someone trying to slip one past, but, (I have no idea who post the auctions, sets prices, etc) I wouldn't think it would be easy get away with something like that.

Relisted at $100 starting bid, and they are empty!

Either they removed the handcrafted mahogany boxes from the plywood creates or somebody just fat-fingered the original price.

Well, I can go by and pick them up for you Guy.
I will hold the crates here until your next trip to Charlotte.
Don't let the distance hold you back on your bid!
Thinking we can condense the Prop Wash and Sailboat Fuel into one package.
Since it goes by weight, that might even be deliverable to your APO...
