get on sullivan drive until it turns into ligon and go straight under a one way bridge then ver off to the left

there are a line of people starting at like 7:30

they have most computer towers there for under 20 but you dont know what you are getting and its really old outdated shit

they got furniture thats very reasonably priced, me and my roomate got a nice recliner from there for 10

Yeah. The furniture seems to be the best deal. They have lots of reasonably priced huge desks. They also have tons of filing cabinets and chairs... although there's a furniture dealer that goes in and tries to get all the good stuff, so if there is something you want... get there early and don't dilly dally around.

The line starts at 6am. most of the time the older guys are there for the lap equipment. There are some younger guys who buy the monitors for $15 and sell them for $60+ on here.

also if you go out Chapel Hill Rd. aways, you can get to the State Surplus as well. Check out the drug-seized section, there are some awesome things in there.

Mostly if you're looking for office equipment, there are some sweet deals. My roommate and I got huge executive desks there for $2 a piece. Not kidding.

It is open M-F 9-4:30 I think.

^yeah I love state surplus... bid on all kinds of drug seized stuff and put that ish on ebay.

They had the podium from the NC General Assembly at state surplus for $30. I wish I had a place for it because it would have made an awesome bar.

When is it open though? Is it only running Friday morning...?

2/16/2006 12:20:45 PM

yeah it is only open up on friday but i do believe they have a walk through thursday where you can go find stuff that works thursday and hid it and get there in the morning to buy it. i got a 8 port hub for a dollar works well. there is a bunch of monintors and they have places to test stuff out.

it really rocks.
