CNC 1996 ECOCA Lathe w. 8" Chuck and conveyor

Yeah that rack sold for a lot of $$$ - usually it is no more then around 200 for something like that.

I wonder whatever auctions can be (are) used for money laundering purposes. You want to give X some $$$ and make it clean, X posts crap on auction, you and your friend have a bidding war for this crap and get it for a ton of money. X gets money that is clean - even on company asset they can claim profit and pay taxes on it.

On news tomorrow we learn JT sold bicycle for 1million $ on auction to a collector ;) Then said collector cousin got a contract for 1 billion. No connection here, move along.
