    Anyone here pick up a bargain there this morning?


    I drove past it at around 9:30 this morning and was passing there again at around 11:45, and the place was thronged with people. Cars were parked from the Alandale roundabout on the Dock rock up as far as Kellihers electrical, with the car park of the place itself full of potential customers as well.

    No bargains to be had. See my rant over on Motors.

    Typical Irish motor auction then going by what is being said in the Motor forum.

    Bidders making silly bids and bringing the cars to the price they would have been anyway and often above what they would have been.

    Pity though, would have been nice to have heard a few stories of people getting good deals on cars.

    Never underestimate the stupidity of Irish People in numbers.....!!!

    - Its the main reason why almost every Shop in Ireland had big red and white "SALE NOW ON!!!" Signs in their windows day in and day out.......

    FFS come on! You see the same signs in the same Shops every time you go shopping - How fcuking dumb are you, Gimme that Wallet til I bin the thing in your own best interests???????

    Fake sales should be subject to substancial fines until the practice fades away IMO.......

    remember a bargain is a bargain only in the eyes of the buyer.
