I've been to two equipment sales. Helmets and game worn jerseys are the first things to go. Both times I've gotten there an hour early and the line was already 40-50 deep.

How much do things like that go for?

Seems like this would be much easier if they did an online auction. At least have an auction on line, then sell everything that didn't sell prior to the spring game. They'd probably make more money as well.

Not exactly sure.
IIRC last one i went to helmets were like $100. game used jerseys were like $50.

I went to one in like 2009 and they were selling everything that had the old swirly cy logo on it, got a lot of cool stuff at that one.

looks like they'll have a good ammount of jerseys and helmets this year

Do things last very long, or are helmets and jerseys gone in like 5 minutes. Don't want to get in line and its 5 minutes to get in and nothing is left.

I wish they wouldn't let people just fill big boxes with arm loads of stuff. There is a lot of stuff that wouldn't sell in an auction - like piles of shoe strings. (I bought a pile. They are super long and work great to tie down tarps)

How do they check cyclone club membership? If my dad is a cyclone club member do I just need to be with him to get in, use his cyclone club key tags, or what?

Helmets do go quick but if i recall correctly they limit it to 1 per customer. based off these pics though there looks like there will be quite a few. when i went in like 2013 there was only like 10. in 2009 there was like 100 but they all had the old logo.

I'll put it this way, with CGC getting 30 min early entrance and the gates opening to public at 1030, i bet helmets will be gone by 1045.

Not uncommon for people to buy a crap ton of this stuff.... mark it up... and put it on ebay.

So if you dont get one.... Start checking Ebay
