Fresh six list pages (today/tomorrow/unfiltered, pages 1–2), 100 event-close checks, 510 in-window featured links. Date/radius filters are hints only; actual addresses checked. Fully paginated Princeton 66618 (200 lots, today), Golden Valley 66737 (200 lots, Oct 1), Hutchinson 66677 (211 lots, Oct 4): 611 catalog lots with advertised counts reconciled. Seventh-day discovery was explicitly included. Returns/pallet titles and low-priced consumer items were screened, not fully appraised; retail estimates are not comps. Other catalogs partial. Bosch exact page/premium/removal/full gallery refreshed; native HTTP succeeded. Local pickup feasibility still needs costs and capacity checks; missing wrap alone was not rejection.
Refresh audit
Cross-day refresh: all four September 27 afternoon leads reopened by exact source ID; all remain active leads, with unchanged displayed bids. No promotions, demotions or removals: valuation, testing/completeness and costed logistics remain unresolved. Three new live HGP leads added as Ballwin bidding opened. The rolling window now includes October 4; yesterday’s closed events were not carried forward. Lab-Line Imperial II Incubator: $2.00, next $3.00; Bosch GRL800-20HV Rotary Laser Level Kit With Tripod: $61.00, next $62.00; 60 - CISCO 8845 PHONES: $50.00, next $50.00; LIKE NEW, LOT OF CERTIFIED POWER CONTROL SYSTEMS PLOW CONTROLS: $50.00, next $50.00.
Evidence and screening policy
33 newly downloaded gallery photos reviewed across seven leads: incubator 3, Bosch 5, Cisco 2, CPC controls 6, AquaLab 5, Mettler 8, pipette 4. Seven actual-lot thumbnails. Mettler browser screenshot verified current bid and condition; other visual conclusions use the downloaded complete galleries. The pipette browser screenshot returned blank, but its rendered accessibility snapshot verified opening bid. Photos do not prove heating performance, calibration, 60 working phones or a complete control system.
Market limitations: managed search unavailable; Bosch eBay search blocked and Brave alternative challenged. Incubator dealer search yielded no matching model. HGP exact-model Bing RSS searches were irrelevant; Brave alternative returned 429. Exact Cisco dealer page reopened at $139.99 like-new ASK, not a realized sale or bulk valuation. Controls need exact-part labels. No verified exact-condition resale basis for the seven lots; research limitations are not economic rejections. No resale values, profits, multiples or Hard Bid Caps invented.
Ready-to-bid gate: conservative resale/all-in ≥ 3.0 and gross profit ≥ $250. Bid basis max(current/opening, $100), verified premium, 0% tax and required logistics. Maximum all-in=min(resale/3, resale−$250); hammer ceiling=(maximum all-in−logistics)/(1+premium), rounded down along valid bid increments. Next permissible bid must not exceed cap. Exactly 3.0× is Medium/edge: No bid advance; unmodeled costs can break the gate. Selling fees are not subtracted from gross profit.
Local pickup requires removal permission/deadline, weight/dimensions, vehicle capacity, loading help and collection plus resale packing/shipping costs. User vehicle/labor is not assumed; no automatic $500/pallet for local collection. Carrier freight requires secured pallet/crate/wrap readiness, $500/pallet plus packing/handling. HGP national parcel sourcing requires verified third-party availability and realistic insured packing/shipping allowance. No bids or purchases made.
