Burlco eyes Web auctions
Burlington County plans to join other local governments in auctioning government surplus items on the Web. The Burlington County Freeholders authorized its treasurer's office to sign an agreement with GovDeals Inc., which operates an Internet auction site called www.govdeals.com. The freeholders said they will sell vehicles and office equipment to the public online to make more money, save time and attract more bidders. Sharon Brauckmann, county purchasing agent, said the auction would be held later this year and not until the state Department of Community Affairs gives its approval. She said the state must approve a county application to waive the normal local public auction using an auctioneer. Kurt Brock, the county's chief financial officer, said the state is approving Internet auctions of government property only on eBay and GovDeals.
Online bachelor auctions himself
A bachelor who auctioned his hand in marriage on eBay only did it to win back the one true love of his life - an ex-girlfriend from Croydon who captured his heart five years ago. Mark Broughton, from Oxford, took the drastic step of literally putting himself on the online market at the end of January in the hope of tracking down the girl, Natalie. However, the auction ended in heartbreak for 37-year-old Mark after a hoaxer won the bid for his hand in marriage for just £17. The former parking attendant has contacted the Croydon Guardian in a last-ditch attempt to find Natalie, who was working as a hospital receptionist the last time he saw her. He said: "Me and Natalie met over the internet seven years ago and I would travel down to see her at weekends.
