Seven-day window: 2026-09-25 through 2026-10-01, America/Chicago. Priority: 2026-09-25 and 2026-09-26, then the next five days. Live snapshots are timestamped per lot; soft-close extensions and bids can change.

Ready to bid: 0 · Promising leads: 4 · Rejected: 0
Not approved buys — verification needed. No buy-ready recommendation or Hard Bid Cap is issued.

Tax-exempt resale: 0% sales tax modeled for all sources. GSA/MN Bid premium: 0%. Other premiums verified per selected auction. A lead is not an investment failure just because research is incomplete.

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.

No powered test or exact numeric model plate. Low live hammer and identifiable lab-equipment family warrant inspection. Live listing / gallery / terms	Valuation not established. Exact model, temperature performance/safety, weight/dimensions, vehicle/labor capacity, collection and later resale packing/shipping costs unverified.

Notes / coverage: Fresh event discovery: 16 records, three events in the Sept 25–Oct 1 window (Sept 27, 28 and 30). Blank/lab/electronics/new first-page queries returned 231 distinct lot IDs; not complete catalogs. Incubator exact item/event refreshed, actual lot address checked and all three photos reviewed; remains a lead, not an approved buy.

grafeauction.com

Notes / coverage: Upcoming API returned 21 events. In-window returned events: Play And Spin, 7631 N Caldwell Ave, Niles IL, Sept 30; Homeland #469, 421 N Main St, Stillwater OK, Oct 1. Neither is Minnesota or genuinely near Minneapolis; Oklahoma Stillwater must not be mistaken for Stillwater MN. Event-level coverage only; no lot-level appraisal or exhaustive regional absence claim.

gsaauctions.gov

Notes / coverage: Fresh native POST with active-Minnesota filters returned HTTP 200, totalElements 0 across active dates, encompassing the seven-day window. Attempted rendered list route redirected to a not-found page; independent Minnesota-filtered UI confirmation was not established. This is an API-only zero, not proof that all possible inventory was absent.

	HYDRAULIC TOOL BUNDLE Source ID: 16092	$55.00 Current Next: $60.00 Sep 25, 08:11:53 AM CDT	Sep 25, 10:30:00 AM CDT	6408 Elm St., North Branch, MN 55056 Local pickup	Fresh eight-photo gallery shows long hydraulic pole saw and limb-lopper tools, hoses/couplers and used surfaces. Browser confirms as-is description, current price and same-day close. Specialized utility/arborist tooling warrants exact-model inspection; no hydraulic power source or successful operating test is established. Live listing / gallery / terms	Valuation not established. Exact models, saw/chain and lopper operation, hydraulic compatibility, leakage, hose/coupler condition and completeness unverified. Need tool lengths, total packed weight, safe vehicle capacity, pickup deadline, loading help, collection cost and later long-parcel packing/shipping cost.	Request readable model plates, length measurements and a hydraulic operating test; confirm pickup appointment and suitable vehicle/help. Compare exact used configurations and cost collection/outbound packing before bidding.
	60 - CISCO 8845 PHONES Source ID: 16201	$50.00 Displayed / opening (no bids shown) Next: $50.00 Sep 25, 08:11:53 AM CDT	Oct 01, 10:10:00 AM CDT	5005 Minnetonka Blvd, Saint Louis Park, MN 55436 Local pickup	Seller describes 60 Cisco 8845 phones. Two current photos show one sample phone and a carton containing several phones, not an independently counted/tested set of 60. Screens are dark; operation is not proven. Low opening and metro-area pickup justify a bulk inventory check. A live VoIP Supply Refresh CP-8845-K9-VSRF like-new dealer asking price is $139.99 each (special price), NOT a sold price and NOT a valuation of these good-to-fair auction units. Verified dealer active ask (not sold) Live listing / gallery / terms	Valuation not established for this lot. Verify count, exact part numbers/enterprise versus MPP firmware, factory reset/provisioning eligibility, camera/display/PoE operation, stands, handsets/cables and failure rate. Do not multiply the dealer ask by the unverified 60 count. Need carton count/total weight, loading and vehicle capacity, pickup deadline/cost, testing effort and later parcel packing/shipping.	Request inventory/model-label photos and sample PoE/registration tests; verify transfer/reset permissions and contents. Obtain local collection and resale packing costs, then compare actual used enterprise-firmware bulk pricing, discounted from tested like-new retail asks.

HYDRAULIC TOOL BUNDLE — removal/fees: 0% buyer premium. City of North Branch; as-is, all sales final. Inspection by appointment. Exact collection deadline, release authorization and loading assistance require seller confirmation.

60 - CISCO 8845 PHONES — removal/fees: 0% buyer premium. City of St. Louis Park listing: good-to-fair used phones with handsets and cables; CUCM 14-and-above compatibility stated. Pickup deadline, loading support and release arrangements require confirmation with seller. Local collection selected; no assumed user vehicle or labor capacity.

Notes / coverage: Search API returned 242 records, with 144 future-close matches through Oct 1 after UTC-to-Central filtering. Three exact details inspected (hydraulic tools, camera bundle 16184, Cisco phones); two selected leads final-refreshed, browser reviewed and full galleries inspected. Camera lot in Clarkfield was not fully appraised and is not a rejected row. Remaining inventory is bounded discovery, not complete valuation coverage.

Notes / coverage: National HGP exception preserved. Current index screened through Oct 1. Butterball/Jonesboro AR advertises Sept 25, 10 AM Eastern close; linked Harry Davis/BidSpotter catalog returned HTTP 202 with zero response bytes, preventing live lot-price verification. Humanwell/Ballwin Sept 29: browser explicitly confirms bidding not started (opens Sept 28), 234-lot catalog. Ensurge/San Jose Sept 30 and Formula To Factory/Orange Oct 1 catalog first pages fetched; index advertises openings Sept 29 and Sept 30. Hanover Sept 29 received event-level screening only. No currently actionable national parcel/freight finalist verified; no closed prior Sanofi lots reused. Catalog coverage is partial; unquoted packing or unavailable bids are not economic rejection.

	Bosch GRL800-20HV Rotary Laser Level Kit With Tripod Source ID: 66737/6	$5.00 Current Next: $6.00 Sep 25, 08:11:53 AM CDT	Oct 01, 07:10:00 PM CDT	1000 Pennsylvania Ave South, Golden Valley, MN 55426 Local pickup	Full five-photo gallery shows actual Bosch rotary laser, fitted case, tripod, receiver-like accessory and mounting parts. Plate confirms GRL800-20HV, 06/2019 and serial 906101391. Scuffs/dust visible; no powered or calibration test. Model-specific, cased survey tool with metro pickup merits follow-up. Live listing / gallery / terms	Valuation not established. Photo part number appears 3601K61M10 while listing says 3601K61N10; confirm transcription/configuration. Need laser leveling/rotation and receiver test, calibration accuracy, battery-compartment corrosion check and exact accessory inventory. Confirm packed size/weight, vehicle/loading feasibility, pickup cost and later tripod/case packing/shipping.	Arrange inspection or seller video plus readable label and battery-compartment photos; verify receiver/accessories and calibration. Obtain exact-condition used-kit prices and collection/outbound packing costs before bidding.

Bosch GRL800-20HV Rotary Laser Level Kit With Tripod — removal/fees: 15% buyer premium. Inspection by appointment. Removal Oct 3, 10 AM–4 PM or Oct 6, 5–8 PM, by appointment; no alternate days guaranteed. Buyer must bring suitable vehicle/tools/help. Shipping requests are possible but unquoted; local pickup is the modeled intended handling mode.

Notes / coverage: Six list pages (today/tomorrow/unfiltered, pages 1–2), 100 event-close checks and 522 in-window featured links. Completely paginated Apple Valley 66504 (210 lots), Golden Valley 66737 (200 lots), plus International Falls 66617 (124 lots). International Falls was not treated as Minneapolis-local and yielded no report rows. Other catalogs remain partial. Bosch exact page/15% premium/removal verified by warmed native HTTP; browser returned 403, so its full downloaded gallery was reviewed instead. Prior Medina lots closed Sept 24 and are omitted from all active tiers.

Refresh audit

No prior same-day report existed at invocation. Prior-day incubator and hydraulic-tool leads were reverified by exact source ID and remain leads. Prior-day Akro-Mils bins and expired wipes were reopened: exact close Sept 24 at 8:06 PM CDT has passed; removed, not carried into current tables. New Cisco and Bosch leads added with fresh facts; no promotion without tested condition, valuation and feasible costed handling.

Research limits and evidence

Four lead galleries (18 photos total) reviewed afresh: eight hydraulic-tool, two phone, three incubator and five Bosch images. Three lots also received browser visual review; K-BID browser was blocked but native lot HTML and downloaded actual images were available. No photos prove operation or calibration. Cisco quantity is a seller claim, not 60 verified working systems.

Managed web search was unavailable; Bing RSS exact queries returned irrelevant general results; Brave returned 429, Yahoo 500, Google a verification block, and eBay 403. An alternative first-party dealer search succeeded: VoIP Supply Refresh Cisco 8845 CP-8845-K9-VSRF active like-new ask $139.99, re-opened during final refresh. This is not a realized sale or comparable condition to fair/untested bulk stock, and no numerical lot value is assigned. Incubator exact numeric model remains unestablished; Bosch exact-condition used-kit value remains unestablished. No missing quote/comp is classified as economic failure.

Rejected active-lot rows: 0. This does not mean every other lot passed; unappraised inventory is not classified. Closed prior-day lots and out-of-area events are reported in coverage/audit notes rather than misleading live rows.
