Storage Wars so sit back relax and without further ado let's get right into the content
guys old ship wheel for a season five episode the owner of a resale shop called grandma's attic ivy
calvin decided to place his bets on a mysterious locker scanning through his 300 haul things are
not so impressive at first since he mostly finds a collection of low priced items loading his truck
with a bunch of five dollar sleeping [ __ ] a two dollar trash can and a 10 bed frame calvin started
to feel regretful of his purchase however what would come next would not only surprise calvin
but absolutely everyone watching as he moves aside the worthless mattresses laying against
the wall he finds a massive wheel resting behind him dubbing it as one of the coolest items he's
ever found calvin was finally feeling hopeful that he would make a profit heading over to the los
angeles maritime institute to get it appraised the expert seems amazed with what he found
supposedly most ship wheels would have a maker's mark or a date stamped on them but this one oddly
didn't regardless the expert confirmed that it was definitely a real boat's wheel and that with the
right buyer he'd easily make over 1500 on it this was a definite win for calvin who will net over a
thousand dollars in profit if he plays his cards right vintage mario items daryl and brandon decide
to join forces to defeat barry and jared in a bidding war back in the fourth season of the show
after a ton of back and forth and speed talking from the auctioneer daryl grabs the locker for
a relatively high 900 bucks at first glance most of the stuff in the unit looks like junk
but things get really good as they start digging around right off the bat they find a weed eater
that's valued at around 100 bucks and an old xbox they would probably sell for 20. next they find 75
dollars worth of golf clubs a 200 float tube a 100 washer a 300 tv and tons more making their money
back easily with the smaller items they found on the locker this was already a fantastic purchase
though things only get better once they take a look inside a garbage bag that contains some
very valuable items firstly they pull out a vintage japanese mario brothers board game
then find a vinyl nintendo box with a bunch of mario collectibles bringing it over to a place
called gamer doc in highland park california the expert jason seems really impressed
pointing out that he's only seen the first and third version of the board game he believes
that the second is the rarest of the series giving them an estimate for the price jason
thinks that the board game can easily sell for 700 bucks and the box for around a thousand dollars
this bumps up their units value to over 5 000 meaning they can net 4 000 in profit from this
hall easily what a great find records and stereo equipment the gambler aka daryl sheets went head
to head with dave and jared in a fierce bidding war for what seemed like a jackpot unit it's clear
that the three saw something of value in this locker since even jared went well over his 800
cap to try and grab it in the end after a tense back and forth battle sheets cropped this unit
for a whopping 2 100 hoping to figure out the approximate amount of time the items were being
stored for sheetz finds a newspaper that was published over 20 years ago this was already a
great sign for the famous gambler since he would more than likely find something old and valuable
after removing a couple useless items from the units sheetz comes across a box of vintage vinyls
though this was only the beginning since he also found a box containing a thorn's turntable in mint
condition and a bozak speaker sheets points out that these turntables are extremely sought after
by sound nerds and that they do anything to get their hands on one hoping to figure out the value
of what he just found shades heads over to the audio specialist to get it appraised the expert
seems very fascinated with what he brought in and confirms that it's as mint as men can be which is
a cha-ching moment for sheets although the only way to truly get a price range for the turntable
and speaker is to hook them up after playing some copyright free music through the speaker
in high fidelity the expert offers him 1800 for the kit which pushes the unit's total value to
2 700. netting around 600 dollars in profit thanks to the vinyls and equipment you can say that this
was one of the instances where sheetz's gambling paid off biker suit this time around jared dave
and ivy face off in a bidding war for a unit that was definitely owned by a hoarder not wanting
to pay any more than a couple hundred bucks ivy comes out on top and snatches the locker for 300
excited the grandma's attic owner decides to take a peek at his purchase and expresses that it'll
take months to clear grabbing onto a bike that was crammed between the mountain of items ivy plays
storage locker jenga and watches as it all comes toppling down in the pile of junk around him he
finds an odd looking shoe that was hard and comes across a bag with a bunch of interesting equipment
uncertain of what he was looking at at first ivy realizes that it's protective equipment for female
bikers it's meant to cover every inch of your vitals to ensure that they stay protected in the
event of a crash dying to know how much you can earn with this find ivy calls out to an expert
named stacy to get it appraised she highlights that the leather suit he found is specifically
used in professional motorcycle racing and is quite valuable after getting her friend sasha
from the east side moto vapes to try on the suit she gives ivy a shocking revelation since the
suit is a little worn but doesn't have any rips or damage he can easily get 2500 for the item
netting well over 2 000 on this hall with the suit alone this was certainly a jackpot fine for ivy
movie spotlight waiting close to an hour for his friend mary padium to help him unload his locker
ivy calvin is justifiably irritated when she finally arrives lack of punctuality aside they
start things off kind of slow with items that were barely worth anything finding a small tv screen
worth ten dollars two ten dollar table stands and a box filled with garbage what they find next
will blow your mind wrestling on a shelf in the corner of the unit was a massive spotlight that
was likely used in hollywood shows additionally they came across a matching stand with wheels
on it making this a complete set easily worth over a grand betting on how much this item will
be calvin believes it'll be worth around 2 300 while pity and guess is 1500 comment down below
what you would have guessed anyway hoping to get a conclusive answer in regards to the item's price
tag the two bring it over to larry and michael parker whose grandfather was the manufacturer
of this flight getting a little background from the brothers on what they were dealing
with they expressed that it's called a fresnel and was made in the mid 30s thankfully it was in
working condition and had beautiful chroming which brought up the value even more finally larry and
michael revealed that the light can easily go for 2500 meaning that calvin won the bet
this was an insane find for a cheap locker star trek prop replicas jared scholes and his partner
brandy passant topped a unit with some curious boxes for a reasonable 230 bucks within minutes
the two final box filled with replica props from one of the most successful science fiction shows
ever created star trek they find a communicator a phaser and some official documents that prove
that these items are the real deal excited to see if they're about to make a couple thousand off
of a 230 dollar unit the couple head over to the japanese garden to get an assessment meeting with
some star trek nerds they're extremely excited to see what shows and passante got their hands on
starting off with the phaser they identify it as a next generation prop and the communicator
is something from the original series next they take a look at the certificates and find out that
one of the props is a william shatner signature edition which bumps up the value significantly
considering that the condition was great and the fact that they had shatner's autograph
they placed the set at 4 grand with these items alone they're netting well over 3 500 in profit
which is absolutely mind-blowing and we're sure they laughed all the way to the bank wooden head
peeking through the entrance of the unit he was interested in buying before the auction barry
notices something very peculiar cingut looks like a head sculpture with very realistic looking teeth
this was all the motivation barry needed to fight for this locker copping the locker for a whopping
1 525 bucks he went straight into snooping around and grabbed the creepy sculpture what he finds is
the bust of a head carved completely out of wood with the real dentures and glass eyes
things get even more interesting when he turns the sculpture around since there was a window
with a scene being portrayed in the statue's head getting it appraised he finds out that the
piece is by mike meta a californian artist and that it's well over six thousand dollars making
this a great fight even though it was worth so much barry decided to keep it in the end
