Just curious if anybody else attended the Sacramento County tax sale auction today?

Almost every property I was interest in - and planned to bid on - ended up being redeemed and removed from the auction list on the last day possible (Friday before the auction).  Figured most of them would be, but I still put a ton of time into researching them over the past week or so just in case they did stay on the list.  

I only ended up bidding on one property, but when it went (way) past the pre-determined max bid I set for myself, I let it go.  Definitely saw some other people get caught up in the auction environment and bid more than I would have ever bid on some of the properties. 

Interesting to watch it all nonetheless.

it's always crowed.  I'm always amazed at what people pay for a tax deed.  Last year I scooped 2 properties at the begin of the auction before people got comfortable.  This year there was not much to bid on.

Sorry for the wasted effort but...  thats how it goes.
