YUUUUP!

I was cruisin the Craigslist Tuesday and came across an ad for a Storage Auction.  Well you know what was the first thing that came to my mind.

That’s right, I’m a secret storage wars fan.

I love seeing what the producers plant they happen to find in the storage’s.  So my curiosity got the better of me.  The auction was tuesday at 11am, it was a cloudy overcast day.  I thought for sure it would be less crowded than a weekend.

That Grey Honda Mini van waaaaaaay down there by the sign is mine.   I went in and signed my name and took my place outside with the rest of the minions.  Luckly I had my trusty negotiator with me.

Don’t let that sweet face fool you, she is hard core.  Next the auctioneer(es?) came out and we began.

Sorry in advance, there will be a lot of butt shots as I was trying to take pics on the sly.  She read the rules just like they do on the show.  Cash only, 24 hrs to clean out the lockers, and we were off.  There were a whooping 14 lockers up for auction this go round.

We reach the first locker and it is small, possibly only 4×4.

Lots of clothes and house hold items.  It went for $120, this is definitely not California.

Some lockers were big and some small, some filled, and some almost completely empty.  The cheapest one went for $25 and most expensive but not largest was sold for $325 to a guy that came from Alabama!

There was some playful banter amongst the regulars but nowhere near as high priced or competitive as the show.  There was also no safes or ming dynasty antiques either.  The whole ordeal only lasted about an hour but by the end of that hour my poor assistant was looking like this.

I decided to pay her in cheeseburger that day.
