Aside from the normal palettes piled high with CRT monitors and mysterious beige boxes, there are a couple dozen 866Mhz/512M Dell beige box systems with keyboards, montors and speakers; four flat-screen monitors (the most attractive thing there IMO), a small fridge, a comfy chair, lots of non-comfy chairs, two large but filthy aquaria, several PC systems that may be better than 866/512.
They have also either rekeyed the whole damn campus or just cleaned out the locksmith shop, as there are vast quantities of doorknobs and locks.
And televisions, and boxes of keyboards, and printers, and scanners, and copiers, and a big box of miscellaneous little things such as an external Jaz drive and PC cameras and cables and power strips.
Bidding starts at 9:00 AM.
http://fusion1.umkc.edu/Newsletter/UMKC_Announcements.cfm?NewsID=2319 is an announcement for last quarter's auction i think but the directions are valid.

I went their last year in hopes of getting some gear for a good price, but all the "dealers" from KC where there and bought mostly everything there.

That's what happens when you have ebay. Certainly dealers can look locally for surplus to pad their inventories, but I'm guessing much of those lots were eventually sold over ebay. Which raises the question, why not just move UMKC's surplus directly to something more equitable, such as ebay?
Your best bet is to find some friends who might want to get a part of a pallet and pool together cash to bid up single lot.

UMKC would have to go to some trouble to do that. As it is, they cleanly dispose of their stuff and let others do that. That's what happens.
