"You never know"

Actually, I think that isn't true.

You DO know that most of the lockers are average or even below average.

To hear someone say "you never know" about what might be inside tries to beat the odds on the fact that most of the time there will not be a super find in a crap locker.  The odds say "you do know" that any given lkr will not spew out super finds.

Sure, you'll find a super item in a crap locker once in a while, but the odds are against it.

I hear that way too often.  Along with "it's less than I'd spend at the casino Friday night". 

And then there's the hopeful......yesterday, guy buys a glass top dining table with metal and cloth chairs (looked almost borderline for what even Goodwill will accept) and a busted tv stand for 85 bucks.  As we're walking away, he tells me he'll get $150 out of the table and chairs.  REALLY?  Pfffft!
