Hi everyone

Can someone reccomend a good place in Melbourne to buy whole second hand kitchens, ovens, doors, bathroom bits etc? Im sick on the same old stuff here in Bendigo.

Thanks

Jason

Keep an eye out for the home renovators auctions, There is one this saturday in Cheltenham, http://www.graysonline.com.au/sale.asp?SALE_ID=1914 catalogue available thursday 5pm
Usually lots of stuff including whole kitchens. Content does vary a lot depending on what is on offer.
Cheers

I can back up the comments on Grays Auctions. I bought a pack of Blackbut end matched flooring for about half retail price. The day I was there they had flooring, roller doors, colourbond sheets, tiles, paint, complete kitchens, sinks vanities, taps, ovens, and probably heaps of other stuff I didn't get to see.

Know your prices, some things went for absolute bargins, others were probably more than you normally pay.

Another place is Folwes Auctions in Port Melb. Not as much stock as Grays, but less people there bidding.

thanks everyone. I am plannig a trip to the auctions in the new year. Im not after something specific, I just like wandering around the yards waiting for ideas to come to me. I will advise of any bargains I get at the auctions.
