How many of those shirts do we have? They've been in the library for at
least three years?

Oh yeah, almost forgot.

We did several "multi item" auctions that worked OK.  Only bottlenecked 
one runner per multi-lot, as they searched all the people who bought the 
stuff.  Maybe better to have them just deliver the stuff directly, forget 
about signing the tags, since they're low $ items ($1-2) to begin with.

I wished we could have done more of the chemicals that way, but they had 
been bundled up in baggies.  So maybe next time we try to do less 
bags-of-chem/food/meds, more 10-bottles-to-multiple-bidder auctions.


We also did a fixed-price auction on the T-shirts that was very succesful. 
It was a kind of "come and get em", and brought in $32 (four shirts). 
Also, no bottleneck on the auctioneer.  We might look for these items and 
have them out in advance in future auctions!
