- Alex and Stephen head to a storage unit after winning it online. Watch as we go through the boxes and see what we find!
will it be a big win? or big bust as we gamble on this unit!
What I like most about Alex is that once he takes possession of an object, he sees to it that it is either sold, passed off to someone else to profit from, given to goodwill , or properly recycled. If more people approached their possessions like he does, there might be less need for storage units. Alex, thought he does make a profit, he deserve it for the service he does for society in properly dealing with our limited resources.
Yes. It's good Karma. Which seems to work for Alex.
Yes. Kudos to our fav UT man for that.
Tbh I went from being a hoarder to not being able to bring myself to hang onto anything lmao, I always try and sell on or give away. I buy things second hand all the time but the thrill fades and I just think I'd rather have the money
His gestures were so nice, I love how he handles stuff. But for me, the most important gesture is going out of his way just to get the person's documents back. I'm not gonna say the cliche "where I come from people don't do that", but I've genuinely never seen someone do that, he's a great rolemodel.
GoodWill is a terrible place to donate to. They are absolutely for-profit. Donate to a rescue mission or church group, where any money made actually goes to people in need, not the president of GW's pocket.
I want to commend you on how much respect you have for the items that you find. You watch shows on TV and they literally just throw things in a pile looking for that "big score." It always makes me sad, because often times that is someone's life in that unit. Someone who either passed away or could simply no longer afford to pay the storage fees. That was myself and my husband 25 years ago as a young new couple. We had to move unexpectedly and put most of our belongings into a storage unit. Hard times hit and we lost the unit to auction. After all these years I still think about some of the things we lost (and Im not one to become attached to belongings AT ALL) but my husbands firefighter of the year award was in there. It warms my heart when I hear you say that you will return personal items etc to the owners. It would have meant the world to me for someone to have done that for us. So thank you, from someone who can relate to that situation very personally.
Thank you for returning the personal items. As I watched your video all I could think of was how sad it is, or about what horrible circumstance could have occurred, to force someone to lose everything. As a father, the "this is the hand you held" painting really broke my heart.
In the US, storage unit buyers are required to return personal items.
@@Velmahepcat I don't know how prevalent that is. it has not been my personal experience.
I was thinking the same thing CasanisPlays
I was thinking the same thing. 7yr olds hand print 😍So great Alex has the integrity to return the man's personal belongings 💔
@@Velmahepcat I bet many find it an "inconvenience" to take the time and effort.. And it gets trashed.. Who would know, right? 😩
The Warcraft TCG Sets. God, what i'd give to have those. No less the Collectors Editions. The TCGs especially. SO ancient. SO special. SO amazing.
I’ve lost a storage unit before, I really appreciate that you gave back the personal stuff, I could’ve only hoped!! Love your channel!!
You're a good dude. Really appreciated the fact that you returned the personal data/docs to the original owner. Losing a storage space with your belongings im sure is not a pleasureable experience, thanks for making a little less painful for the original owner.
I really enjoy your videos. Your family is so charming. I think the best line of the video was your son saying “Oh I touched the lint brush.” After that he deserves the bike. 😀. I agree with you that it is really not worth the time and effort you out in to it. It went for too much money but the experience was worth it and your wife got some good finds and that was worth it. Thanks again for sharing your life with us. Blessings❤️❤️
I'm so glad you enjoyed watching.. would've loved to have found something of greater value... but was fun to spend time with my family :)
Curiosity Incorporated absolutely I agree. Not too many treasures are stored in every day lockers. My husband and I used to purchase storage units and never did find that “pot of gold”. It was fun though. It’s best to enjoy your life in whatever you pursue. Life is too short.
@@CuriosityIncorporated Steven could be a movie star!........he could play Young Superman!
but never let that boy near those hollywood freaks. Danger Will Robinson!!
@@CuriosityIncorporated did you witness them cutting off the lock? I have a hard time believing the facility owners didn't rifle through the unit, and then just slap any lock on it.. then cut off the lock to make it look legit..
Alex, your consistent high regard for people and things is heart warming. 💖
Aye, he's a nice fella 🏴👍
I love that you stated you would return personal items to the owner. Integrity. Bravo.
Yes I dropped all his personal stuff off :)
@@CuriosityIncorporated You are rockin' it entirely :-)
And its 2021 and you and your family still have integrity...wonderful
Love this guy. Great programs. Interesting watching. And love that he is always kind and respectful. Giving the personal items back. Good man.
You are so much better than most people. A lot of people would just trash the personal documents so as not to waste time. You are a shining light in these trying times.
You are very generous when you're mentioning"Storage Unit "programs on the major TV channels...
Your discretion in mentioning your concerns that those productions may not be completely truthful,gave me a very satisfying belly laugh...😉👍
One of the other reasons I enjoy dealing with you is your sense of honour and doing the right thing it very commendable that you have gone out of your way to return sentimental items / paperwork/ to the locker owner knowing that the west is a revolving door it is no easy task same with trying to track down the Bambi print cell guy..... Your not a "reality tv" show guy but you are doing exactly what you channel teaser says you're doing.
I just hope if I ever lost my kids pictures or personal things someone would do the same for me :)
Yes it’s all about paying it forward and making the world a better place one good deed at a time without expecting anything in return and telling the history and sharing the stories that would be lost if they aren’t shared / documented ..... the saddest thing is loosing those stories and knowledge which is part of our Canadian history and Identity.
As a storage locker buyer, my first tip for you guys is........GLOVES. You never know what you will stick your hands into....eeeww. lol
What’s your best find? :)
AuctionLife I would agree maybe even a respirator especially with the issue of Fentanyl being a big issue out here ..... I know it's not the best for narration of the video but better safe than sorry.
@@user-wx3wc4bo7c He wants to look nice.
I agree. There could be needles in there.
wear comfortable clothes......the tight fitting leather jacket looks restrictive......not like work apparel.....
I've recently found your channel and I've been bingewatching your videos and you, my friend, are a wonderful human being. Patient and kind and you love your wife and kids. Successful at your business and you make an honest dollar but not at anyone else's expense. You are truly an inspiration and a roll model for all men, young and old. I feel privileged to have found your channel.
Role model. Not a rock n roll roll.
It's great how you include your family.
Your kids will turn out right I'm sure.
Great job!
It really seems like a nice family they are all so kind, or maybe they are just Canadians hahaha
You are such a lovely family you are a joy to watch. We hear most Canadians are pretty nice over here in the UK! Anyway that was interesting and I like you more for making sure the guy got his paperwork back and you giving stuff to goodwill. I get exhausted just watching you sort through some of the stuff so you must work very hard. Anyway I wish you nothing but success. Suzy x
Thanks so much for watching:)
@charles hedberg You punctuation is free, right?
my mom has a locker full of plastic bins they are filled with half used cleaners and x-mas decorations from the dollar store, don't let plastic bins trick you
no kidding. I have a full basement full of plastic bins and they are full of fabric scraps.
The spontanious initiative of returning the personal items to the gentleman just hit me. That was a pure act of true good and I find that precious.
You are so kind to return the persons personal papers. Very thoughtful. Most people wouldn’t. Year ago i had things in storage and the owner sold my stuff without my knowledge. 10 years of my life gone. Pictures, antiques and family heirlooms. I’ll never get over it. Long story but good for you. Such a wonderful gesture.😊
That was fun to watch. Thanks for sharing.
I've worked at a few storage places and they are ruthless when ppl fall behind. One poor girl had junk furniture. She kept falling in arrears and paying late fees and locked out every month. Told the manager that I told her to put her stuff in a yard sale and buy new when she could. He said "Don't tell her that! Those late fees are our bread and butter". This was a huge company making money hand over fist. She was pregnant and bf left her and working at a pizza place. It'll kill your soul to work in storage too long.
I work in a funeral home, can you tell your manager I hope dies soon..nothing personal just business, he's my bread and butter.
shino88 lmao Perfect comeback!! Love it!!
shino88 what a great sense of humor you have , hello from la Charente Maritime
shino88 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😅
I to was happy you have him his personal belongings back. Sometimes circumstance are what they are and people can't pay. I had a friend that put everything in a storage unit and had to move across country. She couldn't find anyone to help her move her stuff. Luckily the owner helped her out until she could get back on her feet. The first thing I asked her was did she leave her photo albums behind... She said yes. My heart sunk. Luckily she was able to get it back but I would have felt horrible if she was not able to. So sad!
That,happened to us. Take your important stuff withnu!
My husband shipped his belongings and things of importance and things that held special meaning to him home to a family friend for "safe keeping" while he was in Vietnam , they didn't keep up the payments on the unit and my husband lost all of the belongings he sent home for safekeeping. I feel soooo sorry for him when we go to his military reunions and the guys he served with bring out their pictures and memorabilia because he has nothing left of the time he served.
These auctioned storage lockers always break my heart. I know for many they only see 'stuff' and it's really exciting... But those things were someone's most precious belongings once. They rented a storage unit because they didn't want to lose those things. Then who knows what happened, and they failed to pay the monthly/yearly fee. It's really sad to think about it, when an outsider gets their hands on those things.
But what if the owner was a Nazi?
Office supplies!! ☺
I'd love to get a storage shed mystery thingy one day! Trouble is, I probably would lose motivation to get rid of the stuff and end up with a house of junk.... Well, a bigger house of junk 😏
Me too!!!
At least it wouldn't be junk I was attached to.
i only have one comment for you and for anyone else who buys a storage unit. please be gentle with your thoughts towards the person who lost it. I lost a unit because my husband and i were promised a job by his brother several states away, and so we went with our six month old and all we could fit in the car. Everything else went into a storage unit. well, there was no job and by the time my husband could get one, i lost all of my things. There was a dollhouse that my grandfather had made and given to me... a set of dishes that was passed on to me by my grandmother...man, so many things.
there is always a story behind why those units come up for sale.... so be gentle
I agree. Don't judge others because most of us have "skeletons" in our own closet.
I love watching you Alex! You and your sweet family. Sometimes the junk we find is priceless.
My eyes popped out when I saw the Heinkels! I've used my set every day for the last 40 years and they look brand new.
There are Henkel made in Germany and elsewhere. I recently was gifted s set made in Thailand. They are just not the same great quality and even the handles are different shapes, so say, the chef knife feels quite different.
11:40 Food hygiene book chewed up by mice...laugh out loud!
The ironing is delicious. :)
It was very nice of this guy to give back personal things to the man who lost his storage unit. It's so terrible to not be able to pay for your things you put in storage and so again it was so considerate for this dude to give it back.
I would want my kids drawings back if that ever happened to me :)
Alex, you're such an old soul. Ever wonder how you feel confident knowing something about everything. To watch you go through stuff is amazing. Even before you were born stuff. Alex looks like you picked the right business and the most understanding wife. God bless her.😊
This is the first video I watched for this channel. The second was the Potter House discovery video, where I subscribed. I smile re-watching this. I had no idea what fun was ahead in the year to come after watching it the first time. Stephen looks so much younger! Now, this talented young man has his own growing YT channel. Cheers to the Archibold's! 🌹
So Steven specifically says I hope there are no bicycles, what does he get out of the deal..................a bicycle.
Murphy’s law
I wonder if it Steven or Stephen? he seems quite a ladiesman when he is in school, which will gives you a lot of trouble ha ha
He liked that chocolate fondue set too.
he actually said, he did want it to be a bicycle..
@@flitsertheo Maybe he figured he'd done his part so had a little fun-due :P
I've been paying $80 a month for a locker for ten years that basically has $1500 worth of stuff in it. I'm an idiot.
Me too. I think I might built a storage unit, them things are goldmines.
I cannot stop laughing!
yes you are
I started to do the same thing. I had it for a few months and thought this is going to cost more than it's worth. It was furniture and I gave it to a buddy who was going through a divorce.
Yep-sell your shit NOW. Just like maintaining a woman in some ways...
Alex,
That's the kind of activity that is so much fun.. It's fortunate you can document
these moments with videos. Ten years from now you'll wonder where the time went .
I love the idea of going back and watching my kids when they were little :)
I know it's a bit obvious but almost everyone has a phone with a camera and video now days which are often taken for granted.
I'm 76 and have had cameras since my twenties when I owned a Pentax spotmatic and took 100's of slides throughout the US and Canada when I traveled alone and later wife my wife and daughter
There are some wonderful memories on them, but they are a pain to see and the transfer costs to printed images is financially prohibitive.
Today being able to save, delete and transfer and print almost everything without fuss really has become a blessing for both younger and
"oldsters" to capture and enjoy our Grandchildren.
Thanks for getting back to me, Alex.
I love that in your videos, you try to waste as little as possible, by donating to charity or goodwill what you don't think is worth any value to you. Well done for being so generous. It might not mean anything to you but it certainly will to a charity!
The small bin with the collectible spoons you might wish to expand your auction via web towards Europe. I don't know how they go for in USA but in Europe ( more precisely, UK and Denmark) they are nuts for them, to the point that even spoons with motives/decoration made out of plastic can be sold each by several hundreds while metal spoons ( iron, stainless, silver, ...) can bring up to several thousands. Hope it helps this but if info
That’s crazy as they are worthless here
@@CuriosityIncorporated Mainly in England and Denmark are the core centre's of Europe for stuff as the spoons but not only. The British go to the point of having on weekly basis full auction( in person and web) of this kind of trinkets. I'm sure if you do a bit of web search you will see for yourself. Few years ago while I was still living in London I put 2 tiny little porcelain boxes hand painted that in my native country are pretty much worthless selling at one of those auctions, mostly because a friend advised me to do so...the boxes weren't old or anything but they were pretty so I said "why not"...for my stunned surprise both got sold for 275£ the big one and 190£ the smaller one...lol I had paid less then 5€ for them back home
@@DCD762 Something being "exotic" or "foreign" can add a tremendous amount of value to an item. I know someone who imports cheap goods from flea markets in Europe, and sells them for crazy money here in states because they're "European vintage/antiques". I suppose the opposite is true as well. Something to think about!
@@heartlandranchtv4943 True...recently i found out that the copper doubluns we use as paper weight back home sell (sold 2 on ebay to a USA buyer) also well in USA while in Portugal they just a notch above worthless
@@DCD762 Gotta love that global online marketplace. One man's worthless knick knack is another man's eclectic treasure, half a world away.
Depending on whether they were made in Germany or Brazil, those Henkel knives are worth really decent money. I have a set no one else is allowed to use...they get to use the self sharpening cheap ones. On the professional knives you can drop a couple of hundred on the large chef’s knife alone. I’m not at all surprised your Wife wanted them, I hope you have a nice set of sharpening stones for keeping them in shape. Loving your channel, and I have subscribed because I rarely purchase antiques these days but still really enjoy the hunt...vicariously through you...thanks.🖤🇨🇦
This one is a "Forged COUTEAU" set, one of the least expensive sets they make/made. $150 or less for the whole set. Henckels makes some amazing knives, but these are not it. Used value probably well below $100 for the whole set.
Qlicky have seen the Brazilian knock offs, and agree they are much inferior to the professional ones. Hence the “depending on where they were made”. I thought it possible the previous owner might have been studying to bea chef given some of the literature and other food related items, but am happy to defer to your keen eye on this.🖤🇨🇦
awesome that y'all give back personal items.
So nice that you are teaching your good-looking son, Stephen, that it is OK to take risks. Your father lives on in you.
Love the Mountain Lion Print!
Your wife made out GREAT lol! Well worth what you paid for that unit! Super buy!!!
She’s super happy with the knife set :)
If there are any loot cards in that Warcraft pile, chances are the previous owner already used it. They can only be used once to collect in-game rewards, and as he seemed to have been a gamer, I bet he'd have used those cards already. But if you find unused loot cards, that's some dang nice money right there! Basically just check if the "scratch off" code has already been scratched!
I think at an auction price of say $200, you would be happier. The problem is that so many people are out there now since Storage Wars came on TV that are trying to make a living this way, and margins are growing smaller and smaller as the initial auction prices rise.
this was my 5th video of yours and I like them a lot. You have a good presence and a family vibe is likeable too. I also have a small antique/junk store. so im hooked on your video's. when i have time. thank you
The WOW stuff is worth way more than you quoted it to be. Those big collector boxes that you drug out are worth A LOT if you hold out for the right collector.
Alex, I just love your huge loving and respectful and kind heart that you have!!! You always seem to thank and compliment your helpers which you don't see very often in other people! Especially your mother-in-law and friends and family that helps out with renovating the Porter house and the new store of yours! I would love to have a job working for you!! Did you keep the fondue maker and the bike? Did you film giving the bike to Steven? I sure do love all of your videos! You have an awesome day!!! Janet from NH
Nothing can be more valuable than your beautiful wife and those well mannered kids. I wish you and your family, health and happiness. I hope god bless me with such a family too.
Oh why did I never meet a man like you!! Life would have been immensely more fun.
Have you ever thought of buying a used U-Haul truck? They sell them and many companies buy them and have good luck with them. it would help greatly with the storage things you buy as well as hauling furniture.
`Great video, it was great to see your son helping and funny to see your wife grabbing some kitchen stuff, I wish you had surprised your son with the bike on camera it would have been sweet to have seen his reaction, Thanks for sharing.
If any of those ceramic figurines were genuine Hummels and actually from the 50s (they can be dated to within a few years by the style of the Goebel trademark on the bottom; they're German not Japanese) you can turn a profit from them alone.
That spoon collection might be worth a couple hundred dollars. I know there are a lot of souvenir spoon collectors out there. And they sometimes pay tens of dollars per spoon.
Hmm not in my experience. Ebay might get some sold but in person selling, a dead duck
The metal artisans make spoon people out of them. They use the cheap cafeteria spoons because people want too much money for the real ones.
That was fun but risky. Love your wife and children cause life is so so short. Thanks for the video :-)
LMAO! "I just touched that!" Stephen just learned the first rule of storage units - wear gloves.
lol
Good score even your small ornaments will have value. Thanks to your son for being a good help to you
"what do you hope is in this unit?"

What a great kid.

I love that you gave the personal stuff back. I wish the guy who bought my storage unit did that!
Wish you would give buying storage units another try. I watch What the Hale$, and Locker Nuts channels all the time. Can't get enough!!
Modern storage bin are mostly just like this, however it might be worth keeping an eye open for vintage lockers, some are absolute gems. Take a look at one 'Wades Venture' picked up recently.. Over a month and he's still videoing and cataloging a massive vintage collector haul.. You may even see some stuff you could buy for the shop too..
im a massive warcraft player, my head spun when i saw all the things you found,my absolute dream to be able to have that collection in my hands,so so so jealous :) xc
This is the first of these storage locker videos I've seen where there was actually a SANE approach to going through what was in the storage locker. Most of these vids show people rushing through the contents with little or no thought. Anyway, nice vid and COOL ambulance!!
Thanks Mike! You should check out our other videos too! Thanks for watching :)
Seriously! Many of the other storage auctions guys on YT are like crackheads looting those lockers for gold. It's crazy how unprofessional they are.
The first rule of watching reality TV? That ain't real. Count on everything being staged or edited to attract the viewers. Bickering, tossing boxes around, whatever; done for our entertainment. Not to say that there are not close-to-real parts, but take it all with a grain of salt.
Warcraft sells in the USA! Good luck. STEPHEN was so sweet to help and not be a bratty teenagaer😎
Thank you Alex for being so nice and gathering this persons paperwork and whatever else so that they may have that back. I know firsthand just how awful it feels to lose things in a storage unit that you can no longer pay for . It hurts your heart to be honest. Thank you for being a good guy and seeing to it that his personal paperwork would be returned!!
I play Warcraft, if you have loot cards that are not scratched off for the code your gonna make money, if they are scratched then no someone already used the code in game
i found a few but they were scratched :(
Also the CE boxes you won't get much unless they are/were sealed. They loose value by A LOT when opened as it's just random stuff you can get on the cheap online. MoP CE sealed was $80 Draenor was $90 as well taxes in brand new. Source I'm also a WoW player and have every collectors edition. The trading card game is just like Magic so some cards might be rare and might not. It's a huge gamble.
@@CuriosityIncorporated Sadly, scratched cards and used collectors editions have very little to no value. :( It's only the unused loot cards and sealed collector's editions that are worth more than a few dollars.
If you find cards that are however related to a trading card game (which then are usually in binders like that) then there's almost a guarantee there's value. My friend has well north of a thousand dollars in cards of his own I believe.
Also warcraft player here
Your big tip off was the "GFS" boxes followed by the produce boxes. Dude worked In a restaurant
*Pauses half way through*
When Alex was talking about the Warcraft collectables, I was shaking my head at the prospect of him making any money. Only if any of the cards were the special treasure cards, with unused codes.
A mate of mine got the turtle mount when the cards first came out. I told him to sell it as it was going for crazy money at the time, plonker used the code so he would look cool in game.
*Finishes watching*
Well yea, they may have some value, buts its still quite niche, still will be hard pressed to sell them
So great you gave personal things back to the owner.
That was great. I liked that it wasn't your "thing" but you would try it any how. Thanks.
The painting by June Payne Hart sells for $45-$100 depending on size if you gave that to charity someone will pick up a nice bargain
That was their pile to keep for sale
That's why I love this channel, you got the personal effects back to the original owner. Your such nice people.
Great video! I'm always glad to see these units being purchased instead of being hauled to landfills. Tyfs.
Heart breaking to see someone’s life sold off. Still, I’m glad someone as thoughtful as Alex got it
It appears that one of your greatest treasures is Stephen. He looks like a fine young man.
Yes he sure is!
@@CuriosityIncorporated Well-spoken and respectable based on the concluding speech on the Potter's hoarding house presentation. That was an excellent and respectable summary of how the discovered treasures were allocated. Also, that was a lot of mess in that house, and (Alex or Stephen?) spoke with respect and dignity for that lady despite the habit of storing up everything.
I found this very sad. But thank you Alex for your integrity to return some of the personal treasures.
Loved the "Official Crock Pot of the Edmonton Oilers". 👏👏👏👍
Look on the bright side, if you had found a body you did come in an ambulance :D
Funny and true!
LOL !
@@CuriosityIncorporated Was that locker really unlocked when you got there?
They unlocked it for us just before we turned the cameras on
I am afraid a body there would not need an ambulance😟
I watch you for your awesome content but I also stay for the dad jokes.
That’s funny ;)
Thanks for these fun, educating and exciting videos. And thanks, too, for your way of doing business, charities, personal things back to their original owners, etc. You have now got a fan in Germany!
I’m enjoying your videos, especially the hoarder house. I do like your personal integrity,your Dad would be proud.
I agree with you about the storage unit thing. It would be cool if you had a thrift store or flea market but nahh.
thrift shop would make sense, but we are not the right shop for any of this stuff.
Exactly! Your hands are full enough now! It was worth a try tho.
My family has been in the storage business for 40+ years and I'll just go ahead and tell you that there is usually nothing worth much in the lockers. Only time you'll find something worth while is if the locker was owned by someone that passed and the beneficiaries don't know/don't care about the items inside. Also for the most part people will pay $80+ a month for what is essentially garbage and let it sit there for a year plus just to eventually throw it all away.
What is your net income each year? 😂😂😂
@@datsoon9236 if one man pays $80 a month that results in $960 per year for one. Let's say he has 50 of them and it eguals $48k a year total.
@@chernobog8948 I didn't think about taking the numbers he stated haha. That's actually not all that much income for owning a business.... That's below what the Economic Policy Institute calculates as a living wage for most of the country.... dang
@@datsoon9236 that is without all the costs and taxes
@@chernobog8948 right. It doesn't seem like a worthy proffesion.
That is exactly what I look for when buying storage units. If the stuff is just thrown into the unit than more than likely the owner didn't care about their belongings. On the other hand if they invested in proper storage containers that either shows that they cared about what they had or there was some value in it. Great videos!
NEVER DO THIS AGAIN ! Buying storage lockers may be legal but it sure as hell isn't moral. What you are doing is buying things Stolen from an owner that probably had no idea all his stuff was just sold. Falls behind 2 months and it's sold. The storage facility has to make sure you are aware....but THEY DON"T . They have no motivation to do so. This poor guy lost very little here. 15 years ago I lost 40 -50 K dollars just this way. I never recovered the loss. This is preying on the unfortunate. Please never participate in this greasy side of the business again.
@@truthfilterforyoutube8218 If someone doesn't buy the storage unit exactly what do you think the facility would do with it?! Give it back to the original owner for free?! NO! They would throw everything into a dumpster! At least this way the items go to someone that wants them and hopefully can use them to help their family. Yes, it is sad that people either don't care about their unit anymore or can't afford to pay their rental fees but that is just part of life! A hard lesson learned.
I am one of your newer subscribers and I love your Vlog. I anxiously await your finds. And I love how thoughtful you are about getting things back to people.
Henkels are nice. True Chefs use them, good choice mom.
I like how you can buy a storage locker on line! Didn't know you could do that! Now I do! Thanks!
there are a few websites that host them online :)
you and your family see like such lovely people. Wishing you all the success in the world!!
Hey great video work from Stephen. Very intuitively done with a professional feel, nice job!
Stephen is really good with the camera work!
You ought to think about putting a slide at the end of your videos with the URL of your shop on it. :-)
All the way through I kept my fingers crossed just hoping you find something worth a lot lol. But I am glad you’re lovely wife found something she liked and could use and the bike for your son. Hope the cards ect make money for you and you can atleast come out on top with a little profit, it was worth a try you never know you could of found something special so it might be worth anough go at this and a big thank you for giving the rest to charity and the papers and documents back. Don’t stop trying and if nothing else you had a good day out and it’s always good rummaging through tubs and boxes that you MAY find something good in. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks coco, Melissa seems to like her new knife set :)
I enjoyed the unit.. I actually have that waffle maker they are worth about $40 to $50 US money on Amazon. I got mine in the thrift store for less than $10 still haven't used it lol! It was fun watching the video and nice that your wife was able to get a few useful kitchen tools without having to buy them new. Anna In Ohio.
I played the World of Warcraft TCG when it came out until it went out of business. Unless it’s unused loot cards, it’s trash. Most people use their old cards as proxies for games like Magic.
I am guessing the owner of that unit used to run a food related business but failed. And ended up finding solace in games and booze.
From the wicker store!! lol

The stuff people store amazes me. I wouldn't keep any of that junk in my attic, let alone a paid-for storage unit!
Just taking a moment to echo the love that others have poured out. I really love that personal documents and information are returned to the owner, they take care to pass off things that could benefit others to people that can work with them, stuff is donated, and trash is hauled away responsibly.
My uncle had lost his house after a deep depression, where he literally just gave up and left the home before it was even closed. We lost family heirlooms (including flags from the caskets of military in the family), and we know he left behind a hoarder house situation. We saved what we could and put it into a storage unit, sold what we could, took in what we had space for. I can only imagine what they did with his house and everything he left behind.
nice change of pace, maybe by another one at a much lower price? Thanks for the videos
thought i'd give it a try! maybe i'll find a better one down the road.
May the Lord bless your family.
