Bought a 10x20 size locker for 250.00 in Central Cal that was packed. Couldn't understand why it didn't get bid higher until afterwards the mgt said it was a locker previously owned by a picker/bidder and could only assume some of the rest knew (which is part of the business).  The locker didn't look trashy just full of "stuff". Was sick thinking the locker would be nothing but junk left over and a haul to the dump. Well, we saw some nice looking tools and household items along with a few other things to start with, thus the bid. So figured we would at least get our money back on resale. As we started loading the trailer we came across boxes of what we thought was ALL costume jewelry, imagine our surprise when we found gold and silver rings, necklaces, earrings etc. mixed in. Then we found bags of OLD silver coins, vintage vases, dishes etc. Most likely that kind of a find for us will be few and far between but we will take it anytime we can! Over the years we have learned we win some and lose some but the winning feels much better.  ;D ;)
