Twitter Office Supply Auction

This reminds of the .com crash days so much. There were endless auctions and sales of office furniture, etc. I don’t even think a lot of it got sold as demand was so low and supply so high. I heard stories of people buying chairs that cost $1k for $25, etc.

yeah remember when the herman miller aeron was the ultimate .com status symbol? After the bust you could find those on the side of the road for a while.

That's probably SF thing. Generally corporate America swears by Steelcase.

Agreed. I don’t require much but I can’t go without my Aeron

DoveBid was a good auction site for this stuff back then, IIRC.
