Ok just a small update. The 73" 3D DLP tv I got a few weeks back works great!!!! IF I sale it I'm thinking $500 - $700 for it!!!

Now the finds in the 5 units I got in 2/07/2015. 1) had some nice electronics with a complete Bose system. A Minolta 35mm with 2 large lenses. A lodge red enamel cast iron pot with lid not used. Unit cost $55.00
2) a Eddie Bauer bassinet.  A hand made Moses cradle (really nice) some nice wood kids chairs 2 bed frames. A pressboard entertainment center. ( if I can't get $10.00 on that I will get my baseball bat out and have some fun) unit cost $30.00
3) a nice sofa table with ball and claw feet. A small desk. An 8 track and cassette player with 8 track tapes. 36 DVDs. Unit cost $30.00
4) a upright player paino with a few good items to sale. Unit cost $5.00
5) sweet furniture unit. A repo. Roll top desk. An armoire great condition. A dresser and a night stand all wood. A antique trunk from R. H. John Galveston trunk company.  (Without the tray :-(    ). Unit cost $200.00

I think I will make a sweet return on these units.

Ok I'm back.  Most of the lockers were going WAY to high. But I did manage to snag me 1 unit out of 11.
I paid $275.  So far I found a remote control helicopter almost new condition (but it has been use)with a price tag of $139.99 on the box.  Over 100 DVDs good titles.  A nice medium size breakfast table with 2 chairs great condition.  An entertainment center (press board). But still looks in mint condition. I might get $50 at the auction on it. A key board but really haven't looked at it just yet.    I will go tonight and work on the unit and let y'all know what else I find.   I think so far I should be able to get $600 or more but won't know until the auction is over this Friday. Will post later total income.   Ooh and there is looks to be about a 65" DLP tv I hope it works!!!   

Ok I've been to them with kids what gets me is the parents aren't bidding and the kids are coming up to look inside. why they aren't going to bid so why hold up the line for the really buyers that want the locker.
But most of the time the kids are good and quite so it don't bother me that much and I know I will have my chance to look.  What bugs me is the ones with babies not dressed for the type of weather.
At the auction house I work at we have a few kids that come but they are well behaved.

I found $44.68 in a $5.00 unit.   2) 20 dollar bills and a dollar coin.   

My last unit that I paid $55 for had $10.09 all pennies

Hi Travis thank you for making me feel right at home.  I see your in Houston. I'm in Baytown. I wonder if we have been at the same storage auctions???  What part do you go for your lockers??

I collect vaseline glass. Bad thing is just try to find a locker with a collection of that type of glass.

Hi all. My name is Michael I am 46 I do have a full time job but wanted to start a new chapter in my life. I'm semi new to the storage auction business.   I have bought a few during the past few years but now this year I'm really going out and buying units.   I started late last year and got the bug really bad!!!   I am a licensed auctioneer in Texas and wanted to help a friends auction house get kicked off so I went out and picked up a few units and WOW!!   I hit some good ones right off the bat. I will put those finds in the right forum later.  Me and my wife had a resale shop and was buying things at the auction house that I work at on the weekend and thought "hey they are getting this stuff from the storage auctions why can't i do the same"  and take what I find to auction and make a few bucks.  We had to close down the resale shop due to my mothers condition so almost all my find will go to an auction house.    Ok so sorry for the long post
