MCAA Third Annual Online Auction a Huge Success

By Tim O’Toole

The Mason Contractors Association of America held its Third Annual Online Auction from May 1st to May 3rd, 2007 at www.masoncontractors.org.

Contractors were able to bid on several new, name brand items for half the cost of retail including scaffolding, saws, wall bracing, mortar boards, trowels and much more. Bidding was fast and furious, but there could only be one winner for each of the great items! Many lots came down to the final seconds, making it an exciting auction for all involved!
