Goodwill Stores To Hold Auctions For Unique Items

Goodwill Stores in Columbus are holding auctions this week to feature some unique items that were discovered by their staff.

They include a Vietnam War-era ammunition box and an Atari 5200 console in its original packaging.

The first auction starts on Monday at the Northland store on Morse Road.

Items will be offered up for silent bids for the next two weeks.

On Saturday, Jan.19, competition for the items will rise to the next level with an in-store live auction. If they are the highest bidder, they can take it home that same day. If no one exceeds their silent bid with a live bid, Goodwill will call the bidder to pick up the item at the store.

Here's a list of the auction dates:
