Peek-a-boo.
Come on out, Monty.
Woo.
Wow.
Look at all the briefcases.
God knows what's in them, probably cash.
OK, my proxy bid, I'm going to go 600 on this.
You're going to go $600 on this unit.
$600
All right, we got to be going on 6 by 10.
I've got a little proxy bid here, folks.
Somebody has inspected this unit,
and they've authorized me to bid up to a certain point.
Can any give me how much?
You give me $500, what about $500?
- $50. - I got $50 there.
Any give $75 where?
[aunctioneer chant] one. One here.
One and a quarter, one and a quarter.
Hundred and a half, hundred and a half here. $175, $175
What about two? $200, two.
$225, $225, going twice.
Hang on a second.
$200 I've got.
200 and a quarter, $225, where? $225 going once, twice.
Last and final call at two.
What about you 225?
Sold after the proxy bid at $200.
Barry Weiss proxy bid $200.
Way to go, Barry.
That was me in that envelope.
I knew this would be a game-changer.
All right, let's see what we got.
Debunk the junk.
Regular sleeping bags like $10, I think.
Gosh.
A real egg.
I don't know, let's check it out.
Let's hope the rest of the locker
is not that tough to crack.
An old camera, $10, a toolbox.
I don't like there's tools in it.
Nothing.
Oh, wait a minute.
What-- I didn't even know they did dental floss in cinnamon.
I've been using mint like a chump.
This is the first thing I found with any value,
and it's a good one.
It's a magnum Maglite, so it's the bigger one.
$20.
It's just a cooler with a bunch of junk in it.
Would have been much cooler if it had something of value.
Oop, sorry.
Just more worthless junk.
What is this?
It's not even set to my favorite time.
Looks like I missed it by 10 minutes.
Wait a minute, maps because he didn't have a cell phone.
What do you got going on here?
Well, oh, wait a minute.
Oof.
What do I owe this visit to?
I thought I'd come check out your $200 locker.
It's always a joy to spend some quality time with Barry.
You're going to help me start digging.
I'm also intrigued to see what a proxy bid gets you.
What do you got going on here? - Well, nothing.
- Oh. - Whoa, whoa, whoa.
This has been made into a table.
- I love it. - Yeah.
Yeah, old man ingenuity.
I like it.
You got to do what you got to do.
There's nothing in here either.
Nothing, nothing, wait a minute.
You got a--
You wait a minute.
Golf ball with a brush on it.
See your spatuling everything at this point, right.
So I'm going to open it. - Come on.
You're going to spatulate it out.
I'd stand clear.
Oh, God.
Oh.
Look at this dirty little freak.
So many father's days.
There are some good ones in here, believe it or not.
This.
I like this one.
Oh, yeah. - Yeah.
I can see you in that. Hold on.
It matches my outfit.
I know it does.
That's why I'm going with this.
Oh, no, no.
This way.
Why don't you do it?
You know I'm holding a spatula, Barry.
Some of these I'd actually wear.
Well, I mean, you know, do you want to ask somebody?
Do you have a tie guy?
Doesn't everybody?
Yeah, I do.
Wait, till you meet him.
You're going to love this guy.
Oh, I get to meet your tie guy?
You're going with.
I'm going with?
Yeah and don't worry-- you'll be fascinated.
I'm going to keep my spatula.
Spatula.
It's your spot, huh?
Yeah, this is the one.
I'm tagging along with Barry to Louis Formal Wear.
We're going to tie one on.
That's what I was going to say.
Meet James a.k.a.
the Tie-stro.
Charmed, I'm sure.
Yes, ma'am.
A.k.a the tie guy.
How do you want to rummage through these, James?
Oh, man look at this.
The '70s called, and they want their father's day gift back.
You bet.
Exactly.
But there's a lot of other ones here
that seriously are quite nice.
I mean, not only are they silk, but--
- Definitely a mixed bag. - It is.
This has a really nice feel to it.
I would say right now on eBay, if this was in good shape,
probably $90--
- Really? - For this one.
- Really? - Wow.
This is probably the gem out of collection
just from a manufacturing standpoint.
I see.
Most of these are silk and mostly vintage,
I would say '80s.
So James, what do you think the whole bag is worth?
I think conservatively, looking conservatively, let's
just say there's 80 ties here.
I'd say you could expect to get $400.
- It's a surprise. - Look at you.
Look at you, kid. - I'm telling you that.
Yeah.
The fun thing about ties besides being able to sell
them, make a little bit of money on
is the beautiful things you can make of them.
Take it away.
Let's see what the tie guy can do.
Show us what you can do.
We call this one the Rosebud.
How long did it take to do that?
Took me about 30 seconds.
That fast?
This is one of the quicker ones.
This is very simple knot.
This one I call the switchback.
It's just a fun tie.
This one they call the Eldredge.
This is one of the more complicated knots.
It has a lot of moving parts.
And then the next one is the double tie Eldredge, probably
the hardest knot to tie.
About how long for a beginner?
Probably multiple attempts, 10 to 15 minutes, I would imagine.
- How about you? - About a minute.
So you're telling me that you can tie this crazy knot
in under a minute?
- Normally, yes. - This I got to see.
I would love to see this. - Me too.
Let's do it.
So this knot only works with a vest or a suit coat buttoned.
OK.
So I guess I'm ready if you want to start the clock.
I'm ready. Ready?
Go.
And stop clock.
You made it with two seconds to spare.
I love it.
So if I send you a tie, you can tie it for me.
Send it back, whatever.
You're the only man on the planet I would do that for.
I appreciate that.
Wow.
