Locker Nuts episode 679
I'm trying my hand at profiling this locker, and it's checking all the buttons. High income zip code in Silicon Valley... check. Lots of collectables inside like Lego and Star Wars... check. I spend a lot of money on this one, so let's see if my read is correct. Hopes of turning a profit start to fade until I open a trunk which holds a time capsule of all sorts of treasures.
We'll be selling the best items from our purchases on Whatnot. The links are above to sign up and get a free $15 credit to spend, and here is the link directly to our next show. Join us for some live auction fun!

As others have mentioned, I would try and sell all of the Legos as one large lot rather than splitting it up. The right collector will pay good money for it all.
Don't let the lego go for peanuts at the flea market. Lots of other options before you end up giving away a fortune. You have thousands of $$ worth in that locker. The Lego Beetle 10187, if complete with sealed bags, is over $500. The TIE Fighter, especially if you find the manual, is about $50. The Lego Jabba, on it's own, is $30-$40.
Some Star Wars / Marvel minifigs are worth hundreds each, be careful!
For real!! Do a little research, not sure if you realize what you have!! Amazing find, bro!!!! I'm jealous! I made a few hundred off of incomplete opened sets I found!
With all those legos and books. Hold onto them. There are Lego fanatics that would pay a pretty penny to put those together. They are smarter than the average bear. Lol. They are worth money. Color coded even better. Don’t sell yourself short. Legos aren’t cheap.
@@lisatingley8953Agree! If he can match the books/instructions with some of the Legos.. big $$. Maybe a job for his girls.. 😁
I agree those are tiny treasures
Dude, you have thousands of dollars in Legos. The collector set's alone, can be worth from hundreds of dollars to thousands of dollars each.
I am surprised you don't know how valuable those Legos are.
Those are legit G1 Transformers. The Jeep is named Hound and all those little parts go with it. The spare tire is rare! Great finds! I collect them and would be interested in purchasing them!
I think the lego stuff is a good hit. I got a unit a while back similar in quantity to yours not as organized as yours though. I listed the whole lot on market place they sold the next day for 3500.00
I kept a ton of them too .
I think youll do great honestly especially with the colors you have
Looks like maybe he was in LEGO building competition so he had millions of them. Should be worth a great deal of money to the right people.
I just sold a few hundred dollars worth of my sons old Lego. If it’s discontinued people will pay big money for it. You just have to convince your girls to put it all back into its sets, lol.
That collection of Lego is amazing. Not only are there a lot of pieces, but I could see from the video that there are a bunch of individual items that could bring a significant return. I saw many old raised baseplates. Ebay has these listed for 10-20 dollars. The Jawa Sandcrawler that looked to be mostly built and can easily bring more than $100 if you can find the instructions and verify the parts. The VW Beetle should have 19 or 20 bags. If you have all of them and the two instruction books, you are sitting on a couple of hundred dollars. Also, there has been a lot of sorting already. That is added value. I understand that you are busy and that getting the maximum profit from this Lego haul would take time, but at least invest a little time to research ways to sell this over and above bulking it all up in 5-pound bags.
The figures sell for a lot of money depending on how old they are. Find someone to look at it before you part it out. For the right Lego, hold mind. Mx adding, figures sell from 15-20 each! Look them up, as they look like his dads stuff!
You have a small gold mine here! Find somebody to help you organize and/or sell for you. Nice locker!
You've made your money back just in Lego. Ask your fellow buddies before you sell. Mx
Wow, love the legos. It would be so much fun to take each of the books one by one and find all the parts and put them all together. I'm really envying you right now!
There’s a real market in Lego parts. People buy pieces to make their own creations. I think someone might be willing to buy the entire collection
That's a great idea too. I think he should auction them off just how they came out of the locker. Container by container, he will make great money on WhatNot doing it that way.
Those Lego parts and pieces will sell well if you take a bit of time to find the right buyer. No flea market. Find a Lego specialist. There’s money in that.
😂 $1 a piece! I nearly fell of my chair! I don't think you know what you've found! Everyone here does.
And all the books too!!😮 This is a massive score 👏
Hope you realize it's true potential for value.
He 100% does not know what he found! Some of those minifigs could fetch big $$$
It's funny how you get exited when you find a single penny and then you are disappointed when you find a fortune worth of LEGO.
LOL 😆🤣
Agreed!
I don't even do LEGO and I could tell that's a lot alot of money into those. (I do watch LEGO Masters TV show).
to the right person, that is worth a fortune!
It's not a fortune.
Please pay attention to everything you have .. there is so much value in legos that most people don’t know about. Little things can be worth more then you think you could easily make your money back plus more! I know it can be a daunting task but it would be worth it to look into !
If you look at manual 1/2 of the VW beetle it should tell you how many bags of bricks should be in the box. Then you will know it’s complete. Sell all the Lego figures separate. You can get a lot of money for them. Even for some of the single pieces. It just depends how much time you want to put into it.
Would love to hear a follow up on how you handled selling all these Legos. So many collectors out there willing to pay big money. Matching those Legos with the instructions would definitely be more beneficial in selling. I suppose we would have to check out your auctions to see what you do with them. Best of luck!
Wow, I can’t believe how much you spent on this locker. Lego’s are highly sought after and I’m sure there is someone who would be happy to buy the whole lot up. I believe you can get most of your money back in the Lego lot. Good luck🤗 Please update us on what you decide to do with the Lego lot.😃
That cowboy wall hanging might be from the 1950s. It might have been handed down in the family.
You're killing me , man. 1977 that's really old. That's the year I graduated high school. LOL.
Just take your time to put those Legos together, you might find a BOLO since you have all the books to do it. I wish I live in CA or I will help you out for free.
lovely organized lot of LEGO, a collector would love that
check the figurenes for value
😮 there's got to be a lot of money in that Lego stuff
My sister collects legos and pays big bucks for some of those manuals and she also buys a lot of the single pieces You need to have someone look at those for sure
The right person will pay big time for all of those vintage legos and the instructions.
Those Japanese Transformers are the original Transformers before coming to the U.S.. I saw a documentary about toys that had major impacts on the toy industry and Takara created the Transformers.
Lots of money !!!!! With the Lego collection.don’t be disappointed
Lego sells. People are so talented with Lego.
You will be surprised how lucrative lego is.
Those cheaper plastic toys ya think are transformers may be "Go-Bots". On card those are 100 bucks a plus. Out of holder some go in the 50-70 dollar range.
I can’t believe you are not more excited by the legos. You have a jackpot there. The guy color coated them so it makes it so easier to build. You have complete sets of Star Wars. I’d say $3000 easy
Yes, all you need is an avid lego collector to turn this one around!
Wow, that 10187 VW Beetle is worth close to 700 dollars new.
Some of the Lego, in the video around where you found the astronauts, looks like 1980s Lego. Lego went through a rough patch in the 80s, so they were not made in huge numbers. That space Lego might be more valuable than you think, even when they are not in mint boxes. Esp the space and knight series of the 80s are sought after. I sold a mini box of the knight series, in a beaten up box, one figurine, for over $200 about 3 years ago. Also the manuals from that era are collectibles.
On market place you will find Lego groups for your area… huge resale value if you can work out what sets. Some people sell per kilo..
Love the Snoopy Joe Cool towels!
My 11 year old son and my 21 year old son Both are into Legos. My oldest is huge into the star wars and he’s in the marines. Currently overseas. How he’s getting his large builds home is beyond me. Lol. I’m very interested in keeping a watch how you’ll sell these. I’m interested big time. 👍 about to hit that subscribe button. 👍😊
Ps there is an app for identifying every Lego piece ever made and giving its market value. It’s not just branding, Disney for example, that adds value, some bricks/parts were only available in certain sets so that makes the valuable too. My son just bought a job lot of Lego and pain £2000 for it. You might get your money back!
I would take all the mini figs out of the legos and comp them separately, then sell the rest in bulk. the little pink figures in the trunk are M.O.T.U. MUSCLE figures
That VW bug set is worth checking to see if its all there. It sells for several hundred.
5k easy, probably more..ive sold plenty of mixed lego lots for great money. localy and ebay..but what you just uncovered is amazing..the vintage gen 1 transformers are icing on the cake...take the time to go through the mini figs..you wont be disapointed
You could pay your daughters to take each Lego book and find all the pieces then put the total kit in a Ziploc bag.
I said the same thing! LOL 😆
If you took the time, you could use the manuals to make up sets and sell them for more.
Min-figs are quite valuable!
Lots of feedback on the legos hope you do an update. I would set it aside till your feeling it . All those booklets and I bet every piece is there with how sorted they are
That's a. Great find Jack!! Wow😮!! Always looking for to watch your videos!! Love sharing them also!!
3 vids in 3 days? What a great week!
My son when he was young had a bunch of Legos and once their all mixed up its hard to make the right item! Their worth money but it will be hard to sell, being colored coordinated helps. Someone will buy them their are a lot of Lego lovers!
Jack, I have to watch you on my cell phone. Can you please make your inserts re price of any particular item larger so it's easier to read? Pretty please and thank you. 😆 ❤
Lego sells for heaps especially the older sets… love Lego!
Those being Jack Nichols series , they probably going to have stiff shafts so older guys have more control . The flex shafts are more for younger guys to get more distance but you give up control of where the ball is going !
I agree with everyone else. Those legos are worth a lot of money. I'd say it's a great find. I think you'll get your money back on them.
legos = gold Jack!!! Love your show.!!
I don't know the situation of American amateur soccer clubs, but here in the Netherlands most are struggling financially. The soccer training stuff you found would be a relief for every club for it's the stuff that gets lost most during the season ( I was a terrain manager for five years ), well, next to balls... You would create a lot of smiles when you donate it to a struggling club. And the keepers gloves, I would give them personally to the keepers and see them smile :)
The local Savers in Dublin sell the Lego figures for $4.99 +. Quote size bags of Lego pieces $9.99 +.
Yes you can sell legos by the pound And put them in random flat rate boxes But I would look up some of the small individual lego Figures that looked to be From the 80s
Surely some people on here know the value n how to sell it all or maybe your reseller friends ? good luck! The “time capsule “ was a nice end to the video, financially and deffo interesting. Nice one! 👏👏👍🏻👍🏻😍
The Lego is worth tons! Get some one in the know to look at it, or take it to a toyw collectables auction. Needs an expert eye on it.
Some of those are very old Legos. Make sure to go through the Lego figures closely some of them are worth hundreds each.
Those Viper gloves are for cleaning parts of your car, They are V(W)ind screen Vipers (sorry bad dad joke) lol. They are between $15-20 a pair
thats a ton of money on legos....star wars are more collectible as well. You actually struck gold. it's almost like a mini train locker but with legos
You ve more than made your money back in Lego. Don’t write them off, they are worth a lot of money.
Hopefully you looked up the mini figures. Some of those can be worth big money. You could probably double you're money on just the legos. Make sure you keep and eye out for the orignal jango fett and young boba fett they are 300+
The little dog plush at 43:23 could have been worth around 40.00 on eBay. I had one similar to sell for that price.
In my country the plural of LEGO is just LEGO, for some unexplainable reason it hurts my ears to hear them referred to as LEGOS. The nearest we get to pluralising them is when we talk of LEGO sets. They are also very expensive here and I think that the amount you have here Jack would sell well.
Me too ! It kills me!
Me too I like the expression hurts my ears as it does with me -like saying ‘math’ instead of ‘maths’
This used to be on the LEGO site may years ago - i.imgur.com/06731H5.jpg
Same here - it’s the same as Sheep. The plural of Sheep is Sheep. Lego is the same
The little pink rubbery dudes are called MUSCLE. There was a whole bunch of different ones, most are not very valuable. The diecast cars are near $100 for the lot on a good day. That metal transformer could be a bit of money since it has accessories & looks really clean. My advice with the legos is to do a gigantic bundle of all of them and advertise them locally. Since you & your fam aren't experts it would take so many hours to separate, list, & sell that stuff you would be going further in the hole by doing so. If it doesn't work out there's always whatnot, or whatever. There's at least a megabuck there from what I saw, maybe more, so you can get a big chunk of your outlay back pretty quickly with them.
Man, those Legos are awesome. Feel your pain on what was spent on them though. For the right price, that unit would have been so exciting. I hate it when cool stuff turns into painful work.
Love the old cat…had one when i was a child….loved it….have not seen them sinse….im 50 now
Hi Jack 👋🏻! I love how his mom or grandma packed up that trunk with all those keepsakes!
Hello Jack. Let's see what's inside of this abandoned storage unit. Everything looks awesome. You'll make your money back.
My son sells Lego. He buys sets and brakes them. Some spares are worth stupid money. For example, he sold two goats for £55 sterling each. He sold a Lego cloak for a horse for £70 sterling. You might not want to retail it but there is a big whole sale market. There is potential there for sure.
I'm not sure what you are not liking all the legos thats the best locker you've had in a while. You should make your money back on the legos alone.
I would love to see Jack's adventure to Nevada to have a storage unit But I also wanted to be a trip worthwhile for all
That Lego collection looks a lot like my own! I have some from when I was a kid, one castle set is still intact and boxed up. I never grew out of loving them so I’ve been buying sets here and there for years and then when I had kids, I bought sets for them. And then picked up random boxes, bags, sets, etc. at thrift stores, garage sales, Craigslist, Facebook marketplace, wherever. They loved building their own creations so I used plastic bins and bags to sort the pieces so they could find them more easily. I was excited to see the garage/hardware drawers being used here - I have some too! But I’ve never seen anyone else using them for Lego! Now that my boys are older, they aren’t as interested but I still love them so I haven’t slowed down buying them. It’s a fun hobby. If those boxes of Lego had been visible at the front of that locker - I would love to know how different the bids would have been.
Man you are killing me. You have a fortune there and don’t even know it.
When you knock on the locker, one day someone will knock back! Lol
Ugly sticks are the best. My dad gave me mine when I was a little girl and I am 68 now and still have it and still us it.
Have you seen the show Lego Wars, maybe he was building to practise to be on show Legos built to last best toy around. Sell them in 1 lot
Another great find. At least it isn't containers of wires and tv parts
Kirsten D Canada xxxooo
Lego is hot right now. Job lot it all together for a massive sale. There are collectors out there that would also want the manuals.
Jack, please sell the old plush in a lot. People do collect it. May not be high dollar, but collectors will love them. Great video. Take care darling xx
There are many starwars mini figs worth thousands 1 for example is Boba fett cloud city its around 2000$
I think you've got the right idea about spending more cash and getting better lockers my friend
Jack.....
Don't beat yourself up for being a dreamer....😊 It's ok to take chances..... that's living friend.....
Maybe see if there is a Lego club, might get more money from the members
You have major money in Legos!!
great finds! i used to think golf clubs were not worth listing but when i sold a nice set within a day i was sold(pun intended) also, I commend you for wearing sandals while unloading the unit. whenever i do any furniture moving or storage unit unloading, I always wear shoes cuz i have the worst luck bashing and slamming my foot into something lol >_
You could always hope he was one of the lucky 5 that got the golden C-3PO. I doubt it, but you could hope...haha
I was hoping you'd find something awesome in that locker, but boxes of Legos......meh!!!!
That trunk had some interesting things in it. This reminds me of my cedar chest that has stuff from the 60's & 70's in it, which also makes me feel old. 🤪
Just read about a service called Lego Replay - they will take all unsold legos and clean and sort them and give them to kids!!
Blue hat probably came off Paddington Bear.
Update us on this Lego locker on how much you end up making on it. I know sometimes it takes awhile to figure out if you made a profit or not. But I think you might be surprised and you do make a profit on it.
That big storage rack tip the leggo bits into a box to sell and sell the unit at the better flea market. You could remove all the unopened bag ones to sell at auction and take the rest in the boxes to a 2nd hand toy shop.
The large black plastic tray is an Ikea boot tray for muddy boots by the door.
You defo need to read the comments.. the Lego must be a Lego builder. The good ones know all the pieces. And can put together toys no problem at all. You have got good money.
Jack you hit a Lego goldmine and couldn’t be any less excited about it. Hopefully you haven’t off loaded them for pennies. Put in the time and research what you have.
Now that I am watching whole video, you have a few thousand in Lego’s!!
