Reality Shows about Storage Auctions / Re: New Girl Elle At The Pawn Shop - Really An Actress

I've tried contacting Travis and don't get a response. My mod powers limit me to only deleting posts but not topics. So if a spammer starts a new topic all I can do is delete the subject line and contents which I have been doing, then I add "to be deleted", can't even ban the user. I've asked Travis to change this for me and no response to that request either. I stopped doing all of that because if he doesn't care then why should I keep trying.

I used to receive many requests for used panties with urine smell in them. I never obliged although I could have earned a lot of money as their offers were in $100-500 range.

So why not sell them? Who care what someone else's fetish is, this is business.

Yup I totally agree that there are and will definitely be people who are willing to buy those used bikinis and lingerie. It is not uncommon these days especially with online platforms that hide the buyer’s true identity behind virtual anonymity. Hence, I think the contents of your storage units will fetch quite a sum of money indeed.

I know I'm quite late in this thread but just wanted to chime in. I used to be an eBay seller around 8 years back selling lingerie. I used to receive many requests for used panties with urine smell in them. I never obliged although I could have earned a lot of money as their offers were in $100-500 range.

My most recent unit had several things that I have no experience with selling.  Thought I'd ask around for guidance from the experts (that's you guys!)

I have 3 "paintings" that I think are worth a little bit of money.  One is a print from the 40's of a Mexican artist...not an original.  But my research is telling me it's still worth a couple hundred.  Other one is a popular artist.  Last one might be an orig watercolor on canvas from the 50's. 

Where do you usually sell things like this?


I would recommend getting the work valued by a professional first - I have been to a number of storage auctions and have seen many occasions when the person should have had the items in their unit valued first.

General Storage Auction Talk / Re: A little extra money from something you'd probably throw away

The other day I needed to find a power adapter for something I'm reselling. I turned to eBay, hoping that I would find one under $10. No luck. It turned out to be somewhat rare. There was only one for sale and it was $40. Ouch! It got me thinking about how may adapters & chargers we storage unit buyers come across in storage units. You guys might want to look those adapters up before dismissing them. You might be able to make a little extra money from something you'd normally just throw away.

Does anyone already do this?
Have been doing this for ages. I've never thrown away any stuff because I know, as much worthless and useless a stuff might be for me, there are buyers waiting to buy it. eBay and garage sales are my best friends.

Call and ask the storage unit manager, no one here can speak for him.

New to Storage Auctions? / Selling everything in unit all at once.
« Last post by rtljrr on April 25, 2018, 04:25:40 PM »
I live in Las Vegas and have a storage unit outside of San Francisco. I cannot get up there to take pictures or meet with the buyer.

Can this be worked out with the storage unit manager, meeting with the buyer, making sure they take everything, and making sure that I get my money?

Thank you

They can enter the storage unit with the renter's permission, perhaps they had it. As for the collectible you keep them. You are also entitled to keep anything else in there, the return of personal materials, photo's, tax returns, etc. is voluntary since you have purchased and own the contents.
