My list is:

Gun
Motorcycle, because it can be hidden by boxes and stuff and the unit could go cheap
Car
Paintings.

Golds off my list cause I had a decent amount in this locker.

Guns. I would like to add to my collection and I have not kept much for myself from the units I got. What my wife and daughters have kept is another story. ::)

One thing I am hoping for is a shotgun to complete my home defense collection.

I found a night vision monocular, coin collection, gold jewelry and a kevlar vest last month.  Weird reading your finds and thinking 'hey, i found that same stuff!'  Nice finds.  Did the night vision work for you or was it screwed up before you powered it up?  I got one of the older gen1 devices and they apparently break themselves if they aren't used for a while.  Mine went to the trash.

Back on topic.

I want to find guns, precious metals and anything antique/ unique.  I seem to find mattresses, boxes of clothes and IKEA furniture made with the finest particle board you can buy.

My Sanity :\

Very funny, but I have to disagree. Since doing this business I have become a much more sober, and introspective person. Looking thru the leftovers of, in many cases, destroyed lives has made me much more grateful for my life and my family and all I have. I have also almost completely lost the desire for material things. I think I have actually found some personal sanity in doing this business.

I always hope to find a pistol or coins to add to my collection.  I never count on it but am waiting for a nice surprise.  Jewelry is always good since it can pay for your locker.  I'm getting closer with each unit.  Started out with empty jewelry boxes, then started to get watches, then costume jewelry, and finally a ring with a US Gold tag on it.  Only downside is it's gold plated (magnet sticks to it) instead of 10k or 14k.  But I'm getting closer with each unit.

Paintings I like - purchased one just for the painting I saw to put in my house.

Other nice finds even if not worth much are:
Collections (comic, card, etc.)
Old Game Systems w/ games  -- busted N64 w/ no games so far
Tools
Weapons (all sorts of various things found so far)

The night vision was gen3 and i sold for 1500.  I know you can recharge those, not sure about the gen1.

Coins are something I love to get, nothing rare yet but tons of low end crap. Also would like to grab some old game systems, IE Regular nintendo, atarii ect. Guns are another thing I would love to grab, havent got any of that yet just a empty gun case.

Drugs, Porn, Tube T.V., Couch, Mattress.  Oops I'm sorry this is what I find in almost every locker I get (plus some good stuff).  I guess I want to find Guns or Cash.

Honestly, as someone just starting out, I'm hoping to get some items that will help me as I move forward. Handtruck, shelving for sorting/storage of inventory and I also want a rugdoctor type machine with upholstery attachments. Would be good to clean up any furniture I would get in the future.

Also, anything highly liquid would be great at this point. Precious metals, cash... anything to throw straight back into the storage bankroll.

You should easily come across lots of totes, they become very useful. Shelving should not be to hard to find. Not sure on rugdoctors, but you will come across lots of vacuums. At least I do anyway :)
