In this programme they make out like the cleaners are there to help them with the cleaning but it seems they make a few suggestions of what to do and then leave the people to organise and clean by themselves!
Mirjana, you need to go to Aurikateriina's channel. She is a sunny joy of helpfulness. No judgement, just kind compassionate help. Lovely girl with huge following.
Sometimes I feel curtis really stops himself getting more money for things. He could have waited to see how much the ladybird books were being offered for before saying. It's happened so many times in shows.
I think he is under time constraints. Also, as he says quite often: he is selling to people who will have to make a profiit on the items too. So, I do not know if you are correct.
Oh, Darling...it is so easy to manage to collect that much stuff and more. It is easier if you are a compulsively neat person who cannot clean a closet without first taking everything out of it and repairing and repainting it. Then you find that you simply do not have the energy to do it all so you just leave it and then another thing is put in and before you know it you have a wonderful hoard!!
I totally get that. But you finish that project before you start another. It’s not rocket science and it’s not hard. That kind of stuff is behavioral and they just don’t want to finish that project. My closets and cupboards were always very neat even if the rest of my house was messy so I do understand. But you just tell yourself you have to finish what you started before moving on.
@@debbiepotter4592 You make perfect good sense, but this is not how some of us with ADHD or Asperger's or Dyslexia are able to function. Our brains are not wired tat way. I am Aspi and in a way, a neat freak, but by the same token, if I suddenly get ideas for new projects, I cannot not start on it. I might not be able to sleep otherwise (and do not mention medication, that is the great satan as our brains really do not work like most people's, and doctors very seldom know how to prescribe to us). So, I have painntings, stories, craft projects which have been started and are being continued alternatively. And I collect vintage crockery. Fortunately...the stories are on computer!!
I live in Grand Rapids where those floor sweepers were made. I see them at almost every estate sale I go to! Didn't expect to see one all the way across the ocean!
At one point my mum had a cook book collection of over 1000! Now she has definitely lowered that number al lot, though now we have tons of books of different genres 💀.I don’t consider her a hoarder, if we have to much stuff she can get rid of things, but we do both enjoy collecting and just like filling our spaces with things we enjoy and things we like doing
Curtis's number one mistake is saying: "Make me an offer?" That's not how it works Curtis. You set the price. I don't think you are able to do that so you better retire now.
I have decluttered parents house disinfecting it, much to charity, some for brother and me, some recycle, some tip, once cleared more relaxed Cheaper to have less
@@dotdashdotdash I like one comment I saw, something like, only other hoarders will be buying that stuff. If I'm decluttering, I think if I don't want it, no one does.
You’d also be able to make so much more money if Curtis wasn’t selling them. 😡 It’s shocking that after 25 years in the business, he still doesn’t know what he’s doing 😂
That 'expert' hasn't a clue about books. Modern books aren't worth much... £5,000 - £10,000 for certain modern books not much? And I think everybody knows about the early 1st editions of Harry Potter... Then he takes collectible books to a toy shop... Expert? Yeah, right... 100 Ladybird books for a pound each? Given some old Ladybird books can be worth well over £100 EACH, feel free to consult him. Most 2nd hand book dealers would offer about 10% of a books value, if you are lucky, unless you know what you have. Even then, you'd be lucky to get 25% if they had a buyer waiting. If this guy came near me as a so called expert, I would ask him if he wanted to be sued, if he touched my books.

A lot of hoarders have a higher than average IQ. They tend to hoard after a trauma in their lives. One American hoarders show went to the house of a successful American Lawyer. A successful young woman comedian in Australia admitted she was a hoarder, got help, then did a law degree and changed her career to work as a state employed barrister working for defendants not able to afford legal help. They are often damaged human beings, having survived traumas, but are far from 'mad.' Often very kind, gentle human beings, who see themselves as valueless. Care far more, for others.
A good part of them in the American show are clearly incompetent. The ones that go to the bathroom in buckets and bags and dint throw it away. Unimaginable filth. It goes way beyond hoarding. Where the filth and rodents eat through the house. It is absolutely insane. They need to be placed in a home bc over 90% of the time they go back to their filthy ways. Idk about the British version so much but the American version I mean some have to wear hazmat suits, it’s completely ridiculous.
Homes are hugely expensive and most refuse pets. It is actually far cheaper for society, to keep these people in their home, and have volunteers or social work cleaners popping in. Or, if she can afford to set up a small independent flat, from part of her house, she can offer it to a single mother with a child, or an Asian girl student, who could do three mornings housework, a week, in return for a free flat and electricity.
They dint want anyone in their homes for one thing. Idk about the British but the Americans hoarders I agree, the ones that save their own waste, that kind of stuff. They are incompetent no doubt
The English hoarders are just as bad as the American ones but at least the British ones are willing to part with things where as the American ones are just like Noooo!! If you throw that away I'm going to die!!!
British never used to be. Why didn't you just say people not British bec it sounds like (no disrespect) but sounds like you are a foreigner saying British are...... Sorry no disrespect
You haven't seen the American versions of this? One house was bulldozed. Hoarding is actually far more common than average people think. Many hoarders have high IQs . I remember one American woman hoarder was a lawyer. Went to work, nobody knew. Everybody knows at least one hoarder, unless you are antisocial and don't mix with people.
It seems they have actual collections tho. Unlike the American show where the use a bucket and bottles and diapers to relieve themselves and then save them. And have rodent infestations and filth you can not imagine. They aren’t nearly disgusting and actually have things worth money
This man, is underselling the antiques

This was (for me) the most inspiring Video ever... now I can start to sort to all my boxes.😊❤
Finally new episodes.
I have missed you guys I love seeing this channel is helping my mental health…

@@georgielancaster1356 I agree that. Aurikateriina´s channel is really good. I like to seeing it, i can recommend it also. It is Aurikatariina.

So different from the American "Hoarders." Lovely!

Maybe it's my OCD but it still didn't look that great at the end. Still too much little stuff all over. My opinion.

Hmm, so, are Ladybird books the same as the American, Little Golden books? 🤔
Great epsiode!
There's STILL too much!!

Откуда знаешь, что здесь, на земле?
goes on too long and not enough working and clearing. and the expert hes nothing more than a modern day Steptoe. I doubt he knows anything
Steptoe? I haven't heard that one before.
