It was advertised on craigslist, for Friday and Saturday (today).
About 600 lots/groups of home and office furniture (good quality solid wood), some appliances, computer equipment, and miscellaneous.
The mininum bid was $20 per lot. At about 11 a.m., there were only about 60 bidders, so I have reason to hope to get some nice furniture at $21 per group. The results will be announced Thursday.
So, did anyone else go? I was told that they have it twice a year.

I did. I didn't really see anything good. Some of the stuff was kinda junky.
