    i bought a 10 dollar unit on Wednesday . it appeared to be complete trash. I took a gamble and won it . After sorting it out i yielded 11,600 in cash and 3500 in gift cards. all this was mixed in with expired food , trash and mouse droppings

      This just makes me wonder why Storage unit places don't just have someone salaried or perhaps a person who goes around from business to business on commission to go through storage units after people have lapsed on payments Who helps them turn a profit on anything inside and clears the unit out quicker.

    You hit the jackpot Renee with this one. Payback for some of the past bummers. There could be gold in the card box! It just takes 1 very rare card.

    • @Yesquire0
      @Yesquire0 Год назад

      More likely something that will have to be sold in substantial lots for some small percentage of what each card might fetch if a buyer wanted to buy a single card. Listing each single card with suitable photos to demonstrate its condition would probably take over a decade to complete if you first quit your day job. Hope springs eternal. I can say there isn't a signed Babe Ruth tobacco card in among the piles and piles of cards. I once had to liquidate a huge inherited stamp collection. Choices were open up a stamp store and man it all week long, or bundle it in lots and auction it off. The decedent claims it was worth $400,000. It fetched $27,000 total at auction. Nobody ever mentions all the time it takes to market collectibles as singe items, especially cards and comic books.

    You do lift people's spirits through this channel. I'm glad you found a high-margin unit :). I don't know anything about baseball cards but even at $0.50 each you probably have a few hundred dollars there. From reading some other comments it might be a lot more than that. Is there an underground tote trade among resellers - a lot of you must end up with so many. Don't often hear, "Diapers - smells good," in the same sentence :). Congratulations, don't spend it all in one place and have a great weekend!

    • @PaperandMoose
      @PaperandMoose  Год назад +15

      Haha, I'm guessing that diaper was unused! It's funny when I was editing I noticed that I did say that the plastic tool box smelled like lotion, or something, but I did notice a smell. Made sense once we opened it! Taco Stacks is going to go through the cards and will keep some from his team, payment for opening up the lock! The cards look to be mostly from the 80s, and I'm clueless about the value. So some research will need to be done! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! History Behind the Paper should be out early in the week!

    Please be careful whom you take those cards too. There are a lot of people that will lie to you if you have something very valuable. I used to collect baseball cards as a kid and a lot of what I had were the 50's to the early 90's cards. Cards that are autographed but not personalized are worth more. (To Paper and Moose your truly Rollie Fingers would be a personalization of a card)

    What you have is the last posessions of a person that was in Hospice Care or about to die. Meds of every kind for comfort.

All of the t-shirts, socks, shorts and long johns were incredible. The bonanza was those baseball cards ... the great Georgie Brett, Rollie Fingers (pronounced like Rolly). The laptops were great. Hard drives, erased, always sell. Of course, you just have to make sure there's nothing Presidential on them! An extra computer, or two, is also always handy to have around the house, as well. Awesome stuff and a kick to watch! Thanks for taking us along.

    It's like Raw Lee, not Rollie, but yeah, real name real MLB pitcher.

    Combination lock without the combination is useless BUT before you damaged it the tool box was worth at least $5 at the flea market!
    Your enthusiasm is contagious! ❤️

    One more thing, that blank journal can be used as an Altered Book. Look for Altered Books on RUclips. Just a thought here. You know those juices I get flowing 🤣 🤗💕🦋
