More than 150 Knaack toolboxes will be up for auction in Hassalls’ latest sale in Central Queensland dubbed ‘Knaack Box Wars’, which are all being sold completely unreserved.
On Saturday 18 June from 10am, locals, farmers, businessmen and tradies will have two minutes to inspect each Knaack box before bidding, committing to take home whatever trinkets or treasure may be hidden inside.
The idea was inspired by critically acclaimed TV show ‘Storage Wars’, which follows people who bid money on abandoned storage units hoping to find priceless goods inside.
Previously sold Knaack boxes have been full of a wide range of hand tools, construction equipment, welders, drills, angle grinders, clamps, extension leads, spirit levels, tape measures, hammers and numerous other miscellaneous items.
Hassalls General Manager Steve Wall said his team were excited to hold the first ever ‘Knaack Box Wars’, which is expected to draw a large, competitive crowd.
“With only two minutes to take a look at each box, we expect some fierce competition,” said Mr Wall.
“We wanted to create a one-of-a-kind auction that generated a sense of fun and excitement, all while providing good value product to the local community.
“For those with a keen eye, this auction is a prime opportunity to pick up a great deal, especially if you’re in the market for smaller goods including power and hand tools or construction equipment.”
There is no online catalogue as each box is secret and hidden, but for more information on the auction including terms and conditions, head to: http://hassalls.com.au/auction.php?id=675.
The auction will be held Saturday 18 June from 10am at 35-53 Somerset Rd Gracemere, QLD. To view a map, click here.
