Storage Wars: Season 4, Episode 11: “Orange You Glad Dan Sold it Again.”
Girl cat fight!!!
Brandi’s pissed that the new girl Casey tried to out bid her. Brandi lunged at Casey. The two rolled around on the ground and… no, wait… I think I imagined that.
Here’s what really happened.
Auction was held in Burbank, California.
Guest appearance by Herb Brown and Mike Karlinger. First appearance by Rene and Casey Nezhoda. Absent were Darrell Sheets and Brandon.
Regular players huddled with the Dotsons before auction. New players Rene and Casey joined the group. Dan introduced Rene as a big buyer from San Diego. Rene boasted how they recently opened a new store and currently owned about a dozen thrifts stores.
Jarrod: I think I don’t like this guy.
Rene then continued to rattle on how he does not need to advertise. They average 200-300 people a day. He said that they were like the Nordstrom of thrift stores.
Jarrod: Yep, it’s official. I definitely don’t like this guy.
1st Storage Unit
Small 5×5 locker packed suitcase, wall art, boxes, lamp, bags, and an old trunk. Barry and Rene battled.
At $700 Dan said, “Sold!” Barry refuted and told Dan he was still in it. On the show, I did not see Barry raise the bid because his focus was on Rene.
Dan continued the auction.
Haven’t seen that before.
Sold means sold. But Rene didn’t refute and continued with the auction against Barry who shut him down at a $1,500 bid.
Old trunk contained an old cobbler’s kit, which is a shoe maker’s wooden tool set. Trunk made of leather dated back to the 1930s. Kit valued at $800. Barry sold the kit and trunk to the appraiser for $1,000.
2nd Storage Unit
Untouched for eleven years. Movie studio equipment, neon signs, mattresses, refrigerator, skis, vintage bicycle, and hundreds of vinyl records. And I means hundreds!
Jarrod and Brandi agreed on a $2k cap. She told him good luck with that. But it was Brandi who would crazy bid on this locker.
Rene vs. Jarrod and the bid quickly rose to $2,000. Jarrod pulled back. Casey took over for Rene. Oh no, new girl, you did not just bid against Brandi’s man.
Brandi: I can’t believe I’m saying this, but screw the cap.
Brandi jumped in. Bid rose in $50 increments and f-a-s-t! Up to $2,500 to $3,000 to $3,500 and climbing.
Errrrrooww!
Cat fight!
Okay, it wasn’t a real girl cat fight, but dang, you could feel the heat between Brandi and Casey. They wouldn’t stop bidding against each other!
Brandi: Little Miss too-old-for-those-tiny-shorts thinks she can knock me out? Uh, no.
But at $4,000 Jarrod had to cut Brandi off. Casey won the locker at an outrageous price. I understand the need to get in the game, but don’t let the game get to you.
Rene and Casey dug through their locker. Old compressor, generator, ten 1975 Spite bottles, 1951 Park Sherman clock, box full of 1985 brand new baseball cards, and several vintage rotary telephones.
I will give credit to Rene that he did not inflate his assessment of the value of items. Not like other players do. I’ll give him that.
Next day Jarrod and Brandi drove to another storage auction at Riverside, California. Herb and Mike, bottom-feeders, were present.
3rd Storage Unit
Mountain of clothes mess. Some furniture, boxes and rubber containers. Jarrod vs. Herb.
You would think Jarrod who desperately needs to fill the shelves of his store would outbid the guppies, but no. I think the mountain of clothes scared him off. Herb won the locker at $575.
Herb and Mike dug through the unit, found a few collectibles but only one item of value: Ward’s Orange Crush soda pump along with two vintage Orange Crush glasses.
Ceramic soda pump in near pristine condition, which was amazing because it dated back to the 1920s. Appraiser stated there may only be 75 left of this type of soda pump in America. He valued the items at $1,200. Guppies got lucky.
Profit Scorecard:
Herb Brown & Mike Karlinger: $1,125
Rene Nezhoda & Casey Nezhoda: $910
Barry Weiss: LOSS -$443
Jarrod Schulz & Brandi Passante: $0
What do I think about the new players Rene and Casey?
Please leave your insightful opinions in the comment box below.
I know that Casey girl from somewhere?
Steve – Unless you frequent San Diego where Casey and her husband run several thrift stores. The only IMdb credit she has is from Storage Wars.”
Reading and watching storage wars, I can see Brandi is clearly jealous of Casey. So what if she is older, she is HOT ! and looks good in those shorts and dresses sexy all the time. I see Jared sneaking looks ! Brandi dresses like a proper catholic girl or old lady. If you have it flaunt it !
Joe – I think Brandi was the only female cast on the show and have any woman, no matter who she is or what she looks like, would of course threaten her position as the sole female on the show.
Ya that Casey?Is fine!Im sure her old man has to think he’s lucky…If he dont,He needs to think agian…But I gotta tell yuh,Jenny from Texas would be the one id bid onn…
Kenneth: Rene knows he’s lucky to have Casey. Thanks for reading the blog.
Cassey is way hotter than Brandie but that’s why she is so competitive thinking herglory is being stood lol
Rabbit: I think they are both hot, that’s why they are so competitive.
Brandi has class, Casey has ????? (no class)
