You'll have to build a new shed to keep it all in. That's a lot of ceramics!

Love the whole thing. Good for you Mark!
Special kudos for the orange buckets!

Used? You could turn a really nice profit here!

At $5, at least it would be a tiny cactus.

I'm not saying that used is bad. I mean, not as good as new obviously, but used still works! And you can still sell 'em. cha ching!!
Some of the larger pieces look rounded, as in used rounded. That is one heck of a deal either way!

Not sure those bucket handles are designed to lift that much weight, be careful. Be quite the mess to clean up if a handle let loose. Suck even worse if it let go and bucket fell on toes!

They are used, I just hope that it isn't driveway gravel with a layer of good stuff on top.

Providing that you aren't going to load these buckets in the back seat of a car and that you have a truck to go get these buckets - take 4 empty buckets with you so you can dump half of each orange bucket into an empty to make carrying/moving easier.
Be an easy way to see what's lower down in the buckets. Be mindful of the dust.
Is the seller at a business where such media would be used? Maybe they rotate out the old and replace with new. Check on the story here as they may have more in the future to sell that you could get in on.

Great deal! Heck, the buckets are probably worth what you paid.
I wonder what is behind the screen?

I got them. Now for the real bummer. There was a barrel of cutting oil that I didn't see on the auction. It got one bid. Dammit Dammit Dammit Dammit Here is a sample of the take. It is mostly the green ones, but there are plenty of the others too.
