Revenge of the Attack of the Return of the Sahara Liquidation Sale Photos
If you haven't yet had the chance to eyeball the bajillion photos of the Sahara Liquidation sale posted everywhere, we've got a slew of our own, courtesy of VT super reader TwoFours who stopped by the Sahara Liquidation on the second day. Here's his description of the scene on the ground:
The auction let in 50 at a time @ $10 admission per person and you got a SBE half scale shot glass as a souvenir. The buildings were operating on limited power - no AC in the penthouse suite and dark in lots of areas. After seeing the bones of this building it needs to have a meeting with the wrecking ball. A few years back it was in shape to remodel, now there is no hope.
Sad. On to the pix... there are a lot of em. Commentary is mine, not TwoFours.

This, and sweat, is what you get for a tenner. In Sam We Trust.

"I've got dibs on a poker table!"

Even the Valet sign is for sale, BYO toolbox.

The terms of the sale. If you understand point 11, explain it to me.

S is for sold.

Everything must go! Plaster, carpet... even dead bugs!

Unsold casino stools. Fart sucking mechanism available for rent, ask for Sam.

$6,500. Calling John Unwin.

The made it somewhat easy by putting all the hotel room crap in a fancy array and attaching prices to them.

I'll bet the slot / casino stools were hot items.

Ever wanted to mount a tissue box in the wall? For $2, now you can.

Camel art.

By far the best item of the bunch... the camel lamps. I'll bet all these are gone by now.

The Papaya King's Bric-a-Brac Emporium. Dude has four camel lamps on his cart.

Plates.

Colored plates.

For those in need of greasy spoons...

... or rusty pans.

House of Lords banquette

Sconce.

Oh, hai George.

Is this whole thing pathetic?

Not sure who this is... Ray Bolger and...?

Liz Taylor and Husband #5

A plank of marble.

Housekeeping!

You're next!

Attn: skateboardists.

Never again.

Load it up.

Hope you inspected these with the spooge and piss light before buying them.
How sad...

If only SBE would make their Strip entrance more inviting for pedestrians.
Not excited for "SLS Las Vegas" at all.
The place had great furniture, I'd definitely buy the lamp and palm tree picture.

# 11 means that if something is marked $1.00, you actually pay $1.10 for it.
Some of those pictures reminds me of the old school wheel of fortune. When you got to shop for merchandise after solving a puzzle.
The smaller shot glasses are the same ones I got a few of last summer AKA the $1 kamakaze shots- interestingly enough the same ones I was told were sold out/long gone during the final month of the hotel being open.
eBay is now filthy with camel lamps.
Oh Misnomer..."filthy with camel lamps"...such beautiful language!
I would have been scooping up plates at 3 for a $1.00...I thought about making a run with a camel lamp in December..rats!
#11 is a commission that is going to the 3rd party that is organizing/running the liquidation.
