Todays auction was bad in several ways.
1. Bad units.
2. Few units, as people had paid up on many.
3. Crowded.
1. Public storage must have their own type of clients, i have never seen so many ****ty units from one company. It is almost like they have a magnet to crap.
2. it looked good last niht with many units unpaid, sadly almost all of them was paid up this morning. This made the compatition harder on the remaining units. And with alot NEWBIES with no brain's and to much money in their pocket, this day turned out to be a from hell.
I am not gonna compete with newbies that bids 825 dollars on a 250-300 dollar unit. And some units that normally would go for 50-100 went today for 300-400 dollars. I HOPE IT TASTE GOOD WHEN YOU SEE HOW YOU THREW YOUR MONEY AWAY!
3. When people show up and have no plans on bidding, and at the same time brings their whole family, (kids, infants in strollers,etc) and on top of that do it in a inside climate controlled storage facillity with limited space, that just makes me wonder. Another thing is when the same "no bidder" "family picnic" people stands infront of the unit and blocking the veiw for others who are there to bid and buy, then it has come to a point where something has to be done.
A storage facillity here in Memphis has taken this problem to heart, and they Charge a $25.00 fee per person. This fee will be paid back by the end of the auction, and this prevents alot of people to enter. I just wish everyone could start to do that.
