    I've heard that they are good although I have never been. There is one this comeing Thursday as far as I know, with viewing on Wednesday.

    Basically they sell of unclaimed / confiscated stuff (no drugs, guns etc are not for sale). They also do seperate ones for bikes. i suppose it's look of the draw whether or not the gardai have ben busy arresting loads of people and building up a nice stash of goods.
