before dumping that can of change into the Coinstar I would have checked the coins for rare dates/mint marks/silver coins/double strikes/etc. you never know what you might find. might be a $1000+ coin in there.
Yes...the CoinStar DOES take old coins. I had a friend that worked for CoinStar a few years back. He told me about all the old coins he would find and then he would just exchange them for new ones. He got a lot more money than their face value that is for sure!
+gamerslockerslife thanks for the positive encouraging words.. you guys be safe and you have a new sub. I have a page but until I'm back in a legal area nomore hobby for me
At the end of every video you guys should put a final total of how much cash was found & how much was pent on the room. Excluding any other expenses and what may have sold by the time the video was finished.
When you cash in change do you check for silver dates 64 and back for dimes quaters halfs and dollars 90% silver 65-70 on halves and dollars 40% and 42-45 nickels mint mark above the dome 35-40% silver
bought a unit here in hollywood california for 50 only because i saw a nike shoe and well founds some jordans 7s a few clothes that can sell for 5 bucks a piece so made my money back and then more lol
gamerslockerslife ive been wanting to do this for a while but never really motivated but thanks to your vids decided to go for it and its paying off lol
Good shit. I wish I had someone to push me earlier. I only started 4 years ago but I wanted to do it for like 10 years. My old boss used to do it and its how I learned about it. He mostly sold antiques but when it was slow he would pick up a few storage lockers and sell at the flea market. I quit my job 4 years ago and do this full time. Best choice of my life.
wow love the haters on here got nothing better to do then trash someone else's good fortune. pathetic. I my self love storage auctions here in Florida. keep up the good work guys really liked the video .
+Louis Sparks thank you so much! That means a lot to us. We don't pay mind to it because it's not worth the energy. We focus our energy on comments like this! Thanks again!
How did you guys get started like where do you go to find the lockers and what state are you in ? Good find by the way good luck in your next find thx Melissa
+Melissa Bellah we are in NY. We started by calling some places and finding out dates of auctions. I knew about them from my old boss and had the odea to buy from atorage wars. We use storagetreasures.com now but also used to use auctioncheer.com for live auctions. Thanks!
Sweet man! I love these videos but I always kinda feel sad for the person who used to own it. I wonder what happened to them, someday will they find this vid and watch other people going through their stuff?
+TheJoester It's a bittersweet business to be in for sure!! Sometimes you feel sad because the person died and sometimes you feel no sympathy at all because you find out they were locked up. we always give back personal items like pictures, etc. Sometimes, people even abandon the units on purpose. Usually you find nothing but empty boxes and garbage. We have gotten a few of those!
Yeah keep it up man I hope you find something really really good I've always wanted to do that but I'm getting old I bet it's a pain in the ass that move all the junk out of them
I think if you guys set up prizes for fans. Like the first 10 comments on a video for example would get a fraction of the money or anything else like a t-shirt and so on. That would be great.
Awesome find and video guys.!!!! Question???? What kind of skidmark brain knucklehead keeps that much cash in a storage locker but is deliquent on paying the monthly locker bill?? Lol duhhh. Go to the locker and get tbe cash to pay the bill. It takes all kinds. Anyway Im researching and trying to decide if I want to do this partime starting next week. I finally found ypu guys tbat are genuine and REAL people can relate to and just all be who we are. Thank you!!!!!
Something doesn't ring quite true. Usually, the only way to purchase a defaulted storage unit is because it was "defaulted". But, how can the people not pay their bill with all that cash just lying around?
+Mickey Wright we wonder the same. Sometimes they get sick and pass. Their family might not know about the unit, they sometimes tell the facilities to put their loved ones stuff up because they dont know.
i was wondering why so many folks go to those coin star machines that charge you 10 cents on the dollar to count up when you can just take it to your bank and deposit it into your account?
+J3AD All of the banks in our area got rid of those machines. When we first started we would go to them all the time and loved them. This is a business for us and when we are buying 10 lockers a month it isnt worth our time to roll all of the change. I do not know any banks left with the coin counter inside anymore.
what kind of banks dont have a coin counter for deposits from the customers, wow sorry, id be looking hard for new bank.like the videos and good luck with the finds.
Why wouldn't they use the money in the shed to pay the bill? Did the owner die or something? Who leaves that much money in a storage unit to begin with. I don't get it.
+Joe Jones we have a few videos to give starter tips in our "storage locker stories series" also check us out on live and ask then amd maybe we can give you a better explanation in person!
+omfug lol he did not according to the facility. Since he owed the facility less than what the unit sold for he got money back for it. We have no idea why he wouldnt have just gone in the locker and gotten some money to pay the bill before it defaulted but he may have thought he'd be able to pay it and by then there was already a red lock on his unit. its so crazy!
No one else saw the money right and why wouldn't the people who owned the storage use the money to pay the rent on the unit just digging out there own unit and acting like it was someone else's
+william paisley i quit my job and needed to make ends meet somehow so I went to my first auction. I talk more about it in Storage Locker Stories episode 1
I found 5k worth of jewelry in my first year of doing this. I thought it was all fake but I brought it to the jeweler and it was all real. I had a bunch of pictures of it but I lost them when my computer crashed a year or so ago. I do not get why people put such valuable things in storage.
It would take us hours to roll them and we find buckets of change a lot. If it was our personal savings it would be different. The 10% is worth it for us.
gamerslockerslife I'd find a bank that has a machine and get a checking account..my bank has a coin machine that doesn't charge me anything..I can cash it out or deposit it straight to my account..for how much you use the coinstar machines it would be worth it. I use a credit union btw
+Cory Unferferth if it was personal money i worked hard to save i would roll it. When its part of our biz its too time consuming. I dont just buy the lockers in the videos. I am buying them all the time. It just isnt worth the time it would take for the 10% we would save
when do they have auctions in nyc like queens n brooklyn ide like to start doing this maby you could direct me shoot me a email explaining how to go about it
They didn't pay their locker bill. When they sign the contract to rent in the facility it states if they do not pay their bill their items will be auctioned off. Its like if I do not pay my rent I get evicted from where I live.
They miss payments and the storage facility has to empty the space to rent it to someone new. It became a law in the 1970's I believer if this happens the facility has to auction it off publicly.
Give me a break! NO ONE puts that kind of cash money in plain view in storage. This is nothing more than clickbait to get people to tune into their other videos.
Love the sound of crispy paper money!
before dumping that can of change into the Coinstar I would have checked the coins for rare dates/mint marks/silver coins/double strikes/etc. you never know what you might find. might be a $1000+ coin in there.
The coinstars doesnt take the older coins that would be worth more. If the coin is before a certain date they spit it back out.
gamerslockerslife the date is 1950s or 1960 it spit out and between and lower
I'm not gonna trust a machine to give me back rare coins. I'm gonna check them myself.
James Shelnutt I would have checked dates on all the money to check dates for old coins and money
Yes...the CoinStar DOES take old coins. I had a friend that worked for CoinStar a few years back. He told me about all the old coins he would find and then he would just exchange them for new ones. He got a lot more money than their face value that is for sure!
Great finds wish i could buy units and start up my own little flea market
+Dolla thanks! You never know maybe you will!
+gamerslockerslife thanks for the positive encouraging words.. you guys be safe and you have a new sub. I have a page but until I'm back in a legal area nomore hobby for me
+Dolla aww thanks for subbing! Good luck in whatever you choose to do!
wish we had things like that in Ireland id def be doing what ye do ! love your videos 😊
+Mary Lynch thank you so much!
You guys are great! Always enjoy your discoveries.
At the end of every video you guys should put a final total of how much cash was found & how much
was pent on the room. Excluding any other expenses and what may have sold by the time the video was finished.
J George Check my channel out! Just started buying units!
That MVP WWE figure is pretty rare in box. Great score on the locker.
When you cash in change do you check for silver dates 64 and back for dimes quaters halfs and dollars 90% silver 65-70 on halves and dollars 40% and 42-45 nickels mint mark above the dome 35-40% silver
Your videos are dope! literally spend the whole day watching your vids
I am really enjoying the videos guys.... congrats on another nice locker
+Jerry Hicks thanks!
..🦊...don’t think he checked the dates of the 💵💰 ,...nice finds ,...🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
You guys should check the dates on the silver coins they could be worth a few dollars 💵 coin collectors would snap them up so quick..
bought a unit here in hollywood california for 50 only because i saw a nike shoe and well founds some jordans 7s a few clothes that can sell for 5 bucks a piece so made my money back and then more lol
+Antonio Armenta nice

Y'all got Super Mario Sunshine in that locker! You can make a killing off of it on eBay
How did you guys get started like where do you go to find the lockers and what state are you in ? Good find by the way good luck in your next find thx Melissa
+Melissa Bellah we are in NY. We started by calling some places and finding out dates of auctions. I knew about them from my old boss and had the odea to buy from atorage wars. We use storagetreasures.com now but also used to use auctioncheer.com for live auctions. Thanks!
What is a cleaning deposit? Do you get that back once you ensure the unit is cleaned or is it just tacked on to the final bid cost? Thanks!
+Eli Anthony you always get the cleaning deposit back as long as you empty all contents... its different for some facilites but most say $100 per room
Thanks man!
Sweet man! I love these videos but I always kinda feel sad for the person who used to own it. I wonder what happened to them, someday will they find this vid and watch other people going through their stuff?

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of bird's do you have,?
+Valerie Hansen quaker. Sun conure and senegal parrots
In a different episode you wanted to know what the three eyed fish was called blinky it’s orange and you find it in the tv show the Simpson’s.
Its funny we just saw a clip of it pop upon TH-cam the other day! I laugh at myself for not remembering it
take them all comic books and figures to PAWN STAR, and make sure either talk to CHUM LEE, or MR. BROWN.
Awesome guy's.
Roll your change you'll make so much more and those coin stars rip people off
Nick Cannata Check my channel out! Just started buying units!
Yeah keep it up man I hope you find something really really good I've always wanted to do that but I'm getting old I bet it's a pain in the ass that move all the junk out of them
its not too bad if you love doing it
well done on the find
+Judie Farlow thanks!
hitting up that Coinstar didn't hurt near as much as other one to watch
I think if you guys set up prizes for fans. Like the first 10 comments on a video for example would get a fraction of the money or anything else like a t-shirt and so on. That would be great.
+Romeyo 10 we do giveaways through raffle copter
Imagine if the unit didnt cost you so much. That wouldve been a huge profit!
Sick vid
Did you check the coins for silver?
+Buttermybutt here and there... there were so many but the ones we did check weren't :)
Buttermybutt Check my channel out! Just started buying units!
Good find $$$$

+Amanda V most of what you see gets sold! I think we even still have some of the figures on ebay. The link is: www.stores.ebay.com/darthexecute4444
Where are they coming from?
Did you find any wrestlers ???
Awesome find and video guys.!!!! Question???? What kind of skidmark brain knucklehead keeps that much cash in a storage locker but is deliquent on paying the monthly locker bill?? Lol duhhh. Go to the locker and get tbe cash to pay the bill. It takes all kinds. Anyway Im researching and trying to decide if I want to do this partime starting next week. I finally found ypu guys tbat are genuine and REAL people can relate to and just all be who we are. Thank you!!!!!
Its a long story but a guy was paying his nephew to pay his bill while he was sick n he wasnt. A lot more to it though
Eric Ramsey Check my channel out! Just started buying units!
How do y'all git so lucky 🍀 on picking the best unit?
+Mary Logan we have been on a hot streak recently.
+Mary Logan some of our earlier videos and even when we didnt film we werent doing as good.
gamerslockerslife hopefully it will go as good or better from now on for y'all, I've always wanted to do that but can't afford it, any advice?
+Mary Logan i saved up money from garbage picking to buy my first locker
gamerslockerslife good go getter lol I wish I was still young, good luck in ur future endeavors, I'll continue to watch ur luck
10% fee in coinstar in germany u can bring each kind of cash to at least one bank in town and they have to accept it for free
the banks around here used to have a machine that would count it for free but they dont have them anymore. yeah the fee sucks but its whatever.
love your videos! just subscribed!
+Jess Dominic Jalosjos thanks!
Something doesn't ring quite true. Usually, the only way to purchase a defaulted storage unit is because it was "defaulted". But, how can the people not pay their bill with all that cash just lying around?
+Mickey Wright they cant go into the unit to get the cash if they miss the first payment. The facility puts a lock on the room until it is paid.
+Mickey Wright we wonder the same. Sometimes they get sick and pass. Their family might not know about the unit, they sometimes tell the facilities to put their loved ones stuff up because they dont know.
wow this video has everything haha!!
great channel guys
+luke montana thanks bud! Hope you enjoy it all :)
+luke montana thanks luke!
all that money but they couldn't pay their locker bill😂
Devin Hacker have u thought of situation that they got lock up that’s why they can’t pay for it.
Devin Hacker Check my channel out! Just started buying units!
Also sometimes people do pay and loose their units. Storage companies play dirty games.
Omg I lOVE COMIC BOOCKS
i was wondering why so many folks go to those coin star machines that charge you 10 cents on the dollar to count up when you can just take it to your bank and deposit it into your account?

+J3AD td bank chase capital one in our area all used to have them and got rid of them
people kept overloading them and breaking them. the machine we use at stop and shop is broken every sunday night its insane
J3AD Check my channel out! Just started buying units!
Hey um how do you find the lockers?
Angel Solano Check my channel out! Just started buying units!
Great video
+Jon Gotti thanks!
Why do people leave cash in a storage unit?
you hit a 💰 jackpot
+Alex Ohlund It wasn't our best hit but it was a great room!
HAIL TO THE REDSKINS flip flops was there both of them
It was only 1
Why wouldn't they use the money in the shed to pay the bill? Did the owner die or something? Who leaves that much money in a storage unit to begin with. I don't get it.
+Angel Feather Well once you miss a months payment they dont let you go inside the unit
Heh bro awesome video and awesome finds!! Just wondering how you got into it and how can me and my wife get Into this ??
+Joe Jones we have a few videos to give starter tips in our "storage locker stories series" also check us out on live and ask then amd maybe we can give you a better explanation in person!
how much did u buy it for
Keep an eye out if you get more ketchup packets , I'm all out !
😂😂😂😂
Have people never heard of a bank? I mean so absolutely careless with their money!
if I hand some money I wood love to be there
+Antonio Sesson lol its so fun... sure you have your bad units but they're still fun
that looked like a big bug at top
you guys are so lucky
I wish it was luck. We have to go through a lot of lockers to find the gems.
I always get my coins in a gift card. Saves you the fee which for you was $50 X_X
Think of all that Old coin that could hav been worth double or more yku just fed to the coin star and lost out on... ouch guys
You know why do people leave the money in storage units
No idea but I hope they keep doing it. I just found like 17 dollars in change in a locker lol
Jackpot bro
i can't believevthis guy has not heard of warlock. smh
we dont really know whats in here ,,,, oh we opened that but it was sealed lol what the
auctions.storagetreasures.com/view-auctions/catalog/id/36113/lot/222852/?url=%2Fmy-items%2Fwon%2F
This is a link to the unit guys!
gamerslockerslife the game cube isnt worth but maybe a dollar or 5 even 5-10 years ago it was only worth 1-10 for trade in cash value at game stop
That girl sounds like my 70 year old teacher
Don't coinstar - real silver can be worth like $2.00 a quarter - maybe even old rare coins - really dumb to use coinstar.
This just makes me sad people lose there things in storage units can't make the bill or things you can never get back like pictures
Buyers are supposed to give back personal stuff like pictures ids ssi cards etc. We make sure to give back personal items
ketchup packets!! Haha stingy faka
OK, this guy must have died, LOL
+omfug lol he did not according to the facility. Since he owed the facility less than what the unit sold for he got money back for it. We have no idea why he wouldnt have just gone in the locker and gotten some money to pay the bill before it defaulted but he may have thought he'd be able to pay it and by then there was already a red lock on his unit. its so crazy!
No one else saw the money right and why wouldn't the people who owned the storage use the money to pay the rent on the unit just digging out there own unit and acting like it was someone else's
Saints fan??
sad the stuff ppl leave there
I,collect those
look up for little hands only game controller
how did u get in to doing this
+william paisley i quit my job and needed to make ends meet somehow so I went to my first auction. I talk more about it in Storage Locker Stories episode 1
I wish I could get in to something like this
+william paisley i saved up money from garbage picking and went to an auction with 250 bucks. Best investment of my life
+william paisley i saved up money from garbage picking and went to an auction with 250 bucks. Best investment of my life
where do u guys come from
omg thats a lot of money
+Faze Rug lol it would be nice to find that again
I wonder why someone would put money in a storage shed?
+crystal sparks so do i
I found 5k worth of jewelry in my first year of doing this. I thought it was all fake but I brought it to the jeweler and it was all real. I had a bunch of pictures of it but I lost them when my computer crashed a year or so ago. I do not get why people put such valuable things in storage.
+gamerslockerslife you would think if they put that much money in there they could make the payments on the locker
+Delta Wilbanks i would think so
+gamerslockerslife like really if you could but about six hundred dollars in unit you could but I am sure I won't and you probably won't knowing you
wow coinstar charged you $50 to use the machine
It would take us hours to roll them and we find buckets of change a lot. If it was our personal savings it would be different. The 10% is worth it for us.
gamerslockerslife I'd find a bank that has a machine and get a checking account..my bank has a coin machine that doesn't charge me anything..I can cash it out or deposit it straight to my account..for how much you use the coinstar machines it would be worth it. I use a credit union btw
+Cory Unferferth they got rid of every bank around us that has the machine. We used to go to them
gamerslockerslife that sucks! I hate when I had to use coinstars..it really adds up over time.
+Cory Unferferth if it was personal money i worked hard to save i would roll it. When its part of our biz its too time consuming. I dont just buy the lockers in the videos. I am buying them all the time. It just isnt worth the time it would take for the 10% we would save
Whats the thundercats
David Contreras; are you asking what are the ThunderCats like you don't know anything about them
Benjamin Walker asking what acction figure it was missing one in my collection and I think it was PANTHERO the one i was missing
David Contreras, you just can't quite make out what character in it but it almost looked like lizard man
David Contreras- who are you missing I have mostly old-school He-Man but I have a few ThunderCats
I tought it was Panthero
You are so cute i love u😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍ur vioce r so sweeet
Use some of that money to fix that speech impediment!!
+pingman2 no i like it
pingman2 how about you shut the fuck up with that remark
when do they have auctions in nyc like queens n brooklyn ide like to start doing this maby you could direct me shoot me a email explaining how to go about it
That was my lock up lol jk
Just spend your time rolling coins
Isen't that mean people left their money there and your taking
They didn't pay their locker bill. When they sign the contract to rent in the facility it states if they do not pay their bill their items will be auctioned off. Its like if I do not pay my rent I get evicted from where I live.
phara
why is there a illuminati in the dollar'
Why people leave there stuff
They miss payments and the storage facility has to empty the space to rent it to someone new. It became a law in the 1970's I believer if this happens the facility has to auction it off publicly.
+gamerslockerslife oh ok
Can I have some of the money please
350.00
fake as storage wars. ..
+John Jesus i bought the room only because i saw the money in the jar. Believe me or not i dont care
Why the fuck would someone put $212 In there and not in there pocket
+Broc Brooks i ask myself thst every time we find money
Take worse than storage wars
Can I have the comieks I like then I am a big fan
Tiia Brooks if you could spell 😂
Give me a break! NO ONE puts that kind of cash money in plain view in storage. This is nothing more than clickbait to get people to tune into their other videos.
Sounds like someone's a hater.
give me the $5dollors
+Charles Coble ok its yours for 50
