Well most of the general stuff went from $700-1,400...with the general average around $900. Seems most apparatus was appraised at around $900 and D' Amico's son didn't let much go below appraised value. The 1971 Dupex Tower didn't move the reserve was more than anyone was willing to pay (it got up to $5,000) and was the only vehicle that was started. run and could be driven off the lot as the problems lie in the tower itself (the former fire department tried to pick up a Christmas tree with 1/2 of the aerial and stress fractured it). High bid when I had left was for the 1953 Mack Open cab that went for $4.900. There were still about 16 apparatus inside and 11 outside (including the two tillers/TDAs). The Maxim went for $1,200.
