Ready to bid
None established in this bounded run. Leads below retain worthwhile follow-up; they have not passed the 3× conservative resale/all-in and $250 gross-profit gates. No speculative resale values, profits, multiples or bid caps are assigned.
Qualification policy: bid basis max(current/opening bid, $100), actual premium, 0% tax and feasible costed handling; both economic gates and next-bid/cap check required. Local collection is not automatically charged $500/pallet. Carrier freight would require secured packing plus $500/pallet and other logistics. National parcel leads still require insured third-party pack/ship costs. Later eBay packing/shipping cannot be ignored. Selling fees are not deducted from the gross-profit definition.

| Lot 25 — PDI Sani-Cloth AF3 wipes, expired Source ID: 66658/25 | $6.00 Next: $7.00 Sep 24, 08:06:46 AM CDT | Sep 24, 08:06:00 PM CDT | Location/contact: 2230 Chippewa Road, Medina, MN 55340; auction terms instead specify Greenfield Mall, 7945 Highway 55, Rockford, MN 55373, rear garage door #6.

Either date is expired; carton evidence overrides promotional wording. Promotional MSRP/new/tested-excellent claims do not establish current germicidal efficacy.

No current efficacy evidence; no value assigned. | Pass for this resale workflow; do not market as current in-date disinfectant. |

Notes / coverage: Six bounded list pages (today/tomorrow/unfiltered pages 1–2), 100 event-close checks and 524 distinct list-featured lot links with event dates inside the seven-day window; these are discovery hints, not verified lot findings. Filters duplicated inventory. Fully paginated selected Medina 66658 (38 lots) and Apple Valley 66504 (210 lots). St. Cloud 66110 location checked but catalog not completed: an inherited city-list screen omitted it; this is a coverage limitation, not evidence of excessive distance or a rejected lot. Other catalogs remain partial. Two Medina lots final-refreshed with warmed native HTTP; complete photo galleries inspected, embedded video not reviewed.
Research limits and evidence
One bounded exact-model market sweep attempted Masterflex 77201-60, Yokogawa 436104, Snap-on ATECH2F125 and Akro-Mils 30240. Managed search was unavailable (provider not configured); Bing RSS returned irrelevant/general results; alternate Brave queries returned HTTP 429. No exact priced product page or verified sold transaction was established. Search snippets and auctioneer MSRP are not valuation evidence. No blanket rejection was made for blocked comparisons or missing quotes.
All seven published lot galleries were inspected as contact sheets. HGP pump heads and recorder, and MN Bid green wrench also received browser visual review. Images document appearance only, not power-on, calibration, completeness or sell-through. Three pump cartons are not valued as three working units. Expired wipes were rejected on actual expiry-label evidence.
No prior same-day source report existed at initial discovery. All six prior-day seed leads were reverified by exact source ID and retained as leads, not promoted without valuation/logistics evidence. Expired wipes remain rejected; photo expiry wording corrected from the prior-day report. No prior-day bid, status or close was reused as a current fact.
