GSLAESC makes no guarantees about how well or how long these machines will work. We believe that they worked the last time the donor tried to use them. We have plugged them in and run them, but we have not tried to cut any rocks with them.

Pickup & Payment
Payment should be in cash or check payable to "GSLAESC". We will not be able to accept credit cards.
Winning bidders will be able to remove their items November 30 between 10 and noon CST from a drive-up storage unit in St. Peters, Missouri. Details will be provided to winning bidders when they are notified that they won. Bidders who won't be able to pick up items during that time must make other arrangements before bidding. We might be able to meet winning bidders at the storage unit at other times. We might be able to transport items to Oakville, store them for a short time, & allow winning bidders to pick up items from there.
