Wow nice sang. Cracks me up how people act. As my dad always says "they put their pants on one leg at a time just like the rest of us". LOL
True but people dont care how a no celeb puts there pants on

Yes 260 views one reply. But I will play along. As you know this is the worst rated season for SW since its been on the air. So who cares well America doesn't care according to the ratings. The show sucks its a total sell out show and people are buying into the fakeness of the show.What does worst rated season tell you? It tells you people didn't return after last season. The show is worst the the nastiest mattress you can find in a unit.

I will reply to post for you. Who cares.

RE:

I don't know how they could figure that out but there it is ;) ;) ;)


Dave Hester is a main character on the A&E reality show “Storage Wars.”  And what is funny is that people talk about the show after it airs and beleive the show is so real. Like stated Main character.

 YOU HAVE!!--The Sherman Act of 1890 and "bid rigging".

Bid rigging is the result of a conspiracy between two or more participants entered into for the purpose of artificially affecting auction prices. The parties' agreement to the scheme is the necessary keystone to establish a violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act. Here are two important points about bid rigging that are not commonly known.First, a violation of the Sherman Act does not occur when a rigged bid is executed in an auction. The law is broken at the moment the conspiracy was formed by the co-conspirators. The Sherman Act outlaws a conspiracy made "in restraint of trade or commerce." The statute is triggered upon the parties' making an agreement to do what is impermissible, and it does not require execution of the plan.

Second, it is not necessary for the conspiracy to succeed for the Sherman Act to be violated. Again, the violation occurs immediately upon the parties making an agreement that is prohibited by law. If two or more would-be bidders conspire to depress bidding in an auction, they have violated the act even if their plan fails. Likewise, if an auctioneer and a shill, or a seller and an accomplice, conspire to artificially boost prices in an auction, a violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act has occurred regardless of whether they gain a higher selling price.

Upon conviction, the statute provides for a "fine not exceeding $100,000,000 if a corporation, or, if any other person, $1,000,000, or by imprisonment not exceeding 10 years.

The Sherman Act is clearly broken in one episode where hosts Allen Haff and Clinton "Ton" Jones use the phrase "Drop the unit on him", where they deliberately inflate the unit's price to $950.00 and then stop bidding.  

As employee's of Spike TV, Allen Haff and Clinton "Ton" Jones are not liable, however Spike TV is guilty of breaking The Sherman Antitrust Act as the corporation that hired and promoted the activity. Spike TV should be getting a 100 million dollar fine.  Wait!  It's fake remember, so Spike will never see such a fine, proving this show is nothing more than a "show" and not reality.

Reality Shows about Storage Auctions / Re: Auction Hunters is FAKE!!!
« on: June 20, 2012, 03:08:55 PM »
Although it may not come as a huge surprise that "reality" TV is somewhat contrived, Auction Hunters has taken it to a new level that places the entire industry in doubt.

Auction Hunters premiered on November 9, 2010 on Spike (formerly Spike TV).  The show follows Allen Haff and Clinton "Ton" Jones, as they participate in storage unit auctions throughout Southern California. The pair leads viewers through the process of bidding on and winning abandoned storage units, appraising the items found within, and selling the most lucrative and interesting pieces to experts or collectors for awesome profits.

Great concept, and the show is entertaining, the only problem being the show is completely fake.  And I mean 100% phony.

The show is co-hosted by Allen Haff and Clinton "Ton" Jones who are paid actors under contract to Spike who earn their money through TV contracts, not junk dealing.

Allen Haff is an actor best known for his roles as; Police Officer #1 in the made for TV movie Washington Field, Yacht guest #1 in CSI Miami and even the lead role in the 2001 blockbuster hit, Rodentz.

Clinton Jones made a career for himself playing security guards and bikers in the late 2000's.  Jones also starred in 3 episodes of the shortlived documentary I was Bitten, in which he appeared as an "expert" animal wrangler, back in 2008.

So the hosts are actors, end of story, right?  Actually it gets worse;  The Blatant breaking of The Sherman Act of 1890 and "bid rigging".

In this horrific economy, everyone is trying new ways to make money for their families and Spike TV has taken full advantage of this by producing shows which falsely imply money can be easily made by buying and selling junk.

Very un-scientific feeling is that over the last month or so there have been 5 to 10 posts a day.

This could bode well for our business though it has always been true that of the over 2000 members only 10 to 25 have posted with any regularity and even those who are frequent contributors often bail after about 3 months or so.


Have you seen this video- Over 500,000 views. There are some swear words as this video was sent to me this morning.

Online Storage Auctions / Re: Check out WWW.STORAGEWARRIORS.COM
« on: June 13, 2012, 01:42:46 PM »
We are a site where you are able to bid on self storage auctions without leaving the house.  If you win the bid you will have 48 hrs to pay the facility in cash and remove the items. 

I have been managing a few facilities for years and have always thought there must be a better way to perform storage auctions.  My partner and I then created storage warriors.  Check it out.  We will not be available in all states because a few states do require that the sale must be held at the facility.  Keep checking in though as we will be adding many more auctions or can sign up on our facebook page to receive and email when new auctions are posted in your area.

By having 7-14 days to view the auctions it gives the buyer a better sense of what is inside and also be exposed to more buyers than a typical live auction will result in a higher sale price!
Looks like a rip off from sealedonlinebids (dot) com/

I don't use my awning often but I have a friend that uses 10 lb weights (like the ones from a weight bench). He puts a screw through the hole and attaches them to the tab on the bottom of the post. It works great and the weights are flat so they don't take up much room to store.
As long as it looks good that all that matters. When we sell we make sure everything looks great and dress good. Hate seeing people out in there harley shirts with a smoke hanging out of there mouth selling. Looks so unprofessional , but do like it cause buyers seem to come to our booth more and by pass the joe the rag bag look. Looking professional and have a professional set up is the key for getting your asking price .
