It seems that Twitter's San Francisco HQ is having a liquidation sale and is auctioning everything. According to a posting on the Heritage Global Partners website, the social media giant is holding an online auction for its "surplus corporate office assets." Bidding opens on Jan. 17, 2023, with opening bids starting at $25 and $50. Items on the auction block include office chairs, industry-grade espresso machines, and lots and lots of kitchenware.
Among the other items on sale that might catch buyers' eyes is the "manual flywheel slicer" starting at $25. Or the multiple restaurant-grade full-sized ovens, also starting at $25. Not worth your money? Okay well, how about the "Electrolux Greens Machine 20Gal Vegetable Dryer"?

Further, the representative pointed to an auction that Twitter's UK offices held back in January as proof that this is business as usual for the company.

Twitter is in dire straights now that CEO Elon Musk has taken charge. You've probably heard what's going on by now: Massive layoffs, a messy verification revamp, potential FTC lawsuits, and major advertisers pulling out.
