Bob.. The Internal Revenue Manual allows the agent at a public auction to sell them as a package and then individually. Which ever brings the most money in is how it will go. This is usually announced at the auction. With the minimum bid being so low it did not surprise me that they sold individually. I once sold some large construction equipment and everyone only wanted an excavator. The bids on all the lots was greater so that is how it was sold. Then I watched as the high bidder sold off the stuff he did not want to individuals. He got the item he was after, the excavator, for a lower net price than what he had bid individually.

They were sold as individual items. Gee, I thought they were a package. Appears that someone changed the rules (for a few friends?)
