Show HN: GovAuctions lets you browse government auctions at once

Pretty cool. But a lot of it doesn't really work once you click into a particular state. For example, from this page, if you click on "All auctions in Georgia", it lists all auctions in the country. Or if you click on "electronics", it doesn't show just electronics in Georgia.

Thanks for surfacing this. Not sure why this is breaking, but I am looking into it and will fix it as soon as I can.

Update: This should now be working the intended way (ie for Georgia, showing only GA results when you click out, and filtering for the category within GA).

It's still a bit wonky. When I visit https://www.govauctions.app/feed?zip=10003&distance=50 I see items in AL and AZ, which are many hundreds of miles away from 10003 (NYC).

Ok, I'll dig into this more.
