Reading AuctionBytes: Boston ABC Program to 'Chronicle' Yard Sales

ABC WCVB-Channel 5 in Boston is running an episode about yard-saling on Wednesday. Chronicle is a daily newsmagazine, and Wednesday's program follows the "Garage Sale Guru" around to yard sales:

"Every Saturday morning, rain or shine, Carl Abrams rises at 5 to hit the road. His mission: hit 30 to 50 yard sales by the time the weekend is over. Why does he do it? Well, the $15,000 Rolex he bought for five bucks proved to be powerful motivation.

"And now, as "The Garage Sale Guru" of WSRO radio, he's sharing what he's learned with all comers. Tonight, Peter Mehegan gets Carl's best tips, meets plenty of other buyers and sellers, and runs an experiment to test the old saying: Is trash really someone else's treasure?"

The show promises to be interesting, and two of your favorite online auction newsletter publishers may make an appearance! The show airs Wednesday (November 14th) at 7:30. http://www.thebostonchannel.com/chronicle
