Default Items that don't sell?

Just curious- So GL's minimum bid is $150, and some items just are not worth that and don't sell. Some items with no bidders at all. So what does GL do with them? Just relist them? Scrap them? Or combine them with other similar unsold items to make for a more valuable lot worth $150?

I am not sure what they eventually do with them, but I have seen some items come back up. There was a rough M105A2 at Meade that came up at least twice in the last year.

I see a lot of items show back up in "lots"- like 3 busted trailers that didn't sell go in one lot.

I've seen them mysteriously pull larger items (like trucks) that haven't gone as $$ high as they wanted them to before closing also. Just not sure about smaller things like pumps, generators, tool boxes and such

I think it depends on the local GL location. I've noticed some items are relisted the same way, some are combined into larger lots, and some are scrapped if they don't sell.
