I saw an advertisement for one at the auction house. Never been to one tho. Was wondering what the auction is about. Large quantities? Surplus goods? Where do the groceries come from?

Here is the ad for the Chesapeake Marketplace. Still not really descriptive, though, other than to say there is a lot of stuff expected.
