York County Drug Task Force plans Black Friday auction
Instead of standing in line for hours waiting for stores to open, people looking for bargains on Black Friday could instead try the York County Drug Task Force's auction.
About 60 vehicles and a few small items, such as televisions, will be on the auction block Friday starting at 10 a.m. in the parking lot of Schaad Detective Agency, 1114 Roosevelt Ave., task force Detective Craig Fenstermacher said.
There are SUVs, pickup trucks and small economy cars, he said, as well as a flatbed tow truck.
"We have the whole gamut," he said.
Also being auctioned off are TVs, video games and older-model Xbox consoles, Fenstermacher said.
Early peek: "People can come as early as 8 a.m. to look," he said,
or even stop by the Schaad parking lot during normal business hours prior to Friday.People intent on finding bargains need to bring either cash or certified bank checks, Fenstermacher said -- personal checks and credit cards aren't accepted.
People who successfully bid on vehicles have the option of putting down a $300 deposit, then paying off the remainder of what they owe within seven days, he said.
All the items being auctioned were seized during drug investigations.
