- If you're ready to go, I am ready to go!
Here we go, [auctioneer chant].
What about 500?
Let me get you right there for 3, 2 there.
2 to 3 and 300 there, and 3--
4 there.
Now 5-- 5 where?
400.
500.
600.
5-- 6 where?
500, 600, 6 where?
What about 600, going once?
What about 550, going twice?
5 and 1/2 there.
And 600 now.
What about 600, 6 and 1/2, bid 7?
What about 7?
7 to you?
What about 7?
There's [auctioneer chant].
Jarrod?
[auctioneer chant] 800?
800?
Ivy, you're out.
800, Ivy?
Over to 800?
800 where?
I got 7 and 1/2, going once.
800?
800 going twice.
[auctioneer chant] Sold it your way.
Lock it up, Jarrod.
7 and 1/2.
Woo!
Teamwork.
OK, I'll watch, and tell you when to lift with your knees.
No.
Jarrod bought this locker on a million degree day.
He is lucky I'm not sitting in the car.
Wheelchair's 50 bucks.
Let's pull this out.
Look it-- eight phones.
200 bucks.
$100 on the fridge.
Babe, I got the block rocker.
Probably get 50 bucks for it.
Sweet.
Two TVs.
That's at least 100 bucks.
Oh, my god.
So many weaves.
What is this?
What?
Brandi, what is this?
I don't know.
My first meth lab.
Uh--
Look at how old it looks.
Bromate.
The North American--
Acid.
Fiber Products Company.
Oh, don't touch that.
- Let's set this aside. - That thing's cool.
We might have to get this thing checked out.
Yeah, that thing's awesome.
Just because of the age, if nothing else.
- Yeah. - We gotta move this along.
I'm going to die in, like, 20 minutes.
My gloves are just melting.
Look.
They're melting right off.
Computer monitor.
40 bucks.
Whoa!
Holy [bleep],, Brandi, look at this.
Make me a spot.
You gotta check this out.
Oh, now I have nowhere to get down.
You could pretty much get down anywhere you want.
OK, you ready?
Come on, this thing is very something.
Very something?
Yeah.
Here.
Holy [bleep],, that looks involved.
Do you think that has anything to do with that last thing?
They're definitely from different generations.
I'm sure it does.
You think so?
Luminometer?
We definitely should get these things checked out.
Let's keep looking.
Set that aside.
Pots and pans.
Trash.
Clothes.
Whoa, something.
Oh, my god.
Is that a Michael Kors bad?
40 bucks.
One more box to go.
Nothing.
OK.
Personal care products.
What do you think about this table, and those chairs
right there?
They're probably 80 bucks.
We are blowing it lately.
This was a lot of work.
We've made no money, and I'm sweating my [bleep] off right
now.
Those test kits--
hopefully those are worth some money.
It's like a little island oasis
in the middle of downtown LA.
- Hey. - Hi.
How you doing?
Good.
Welcome to LA River.
We're bringing our test kits for Katherine
Pease, a watershed scientist for Heal the Bay.
Hopefully this isn't a wash.
So here's what we brought you.
OK.
Interesting.
So that looks like current equipment, we're thinking.
Very state of the art.
All right, we got some instructions here.
Yes, of 1947.
Nice.
OK.
It definitely looks like you could test for water pH
with this kit.
You would add some water here, add some of the reagents,
and then look for a color change with the dial.
Oh.
Yeah, they don't make them with the spinning wheel like that
anymore.
We got this big guy, too.
OK.
Interesting.
OK.
Here we've got the meter that will
measure total dissolved solids.
We just stick this in the water, and get a reading.
It looks like it's reading about 570 now.
Is that, like, how much broken down poo's in there?
So this looks, to me, sort of like somebody
who is expecting the end of the world.
So this is an arsenic test, and there's mustard gas tests.
Are these kits expensive?
This one is actually over $13,000 new.
Holy [bleep].
Oh, my god.
What?
13 grand?
Now, that's what I call prepping.
So let's start with this little kit.
What do you think that thing's worth?
Well, you know, it's not super useful for scientists
to test the water at this point, but it's
definitely interesting as a collector item, I would say.
I think you would get about $100 for that.
100 bucks?
- Yeah. - That's something.
Yeah.
This unit is definitely valuable.
What do you think we can get for it?
To the right prepper?
To the right prepper, I think you could probably
get about $2,000, or so.
Wow.
2,000 bucks for that? - $2,000 dollars.
Yeah.
Seems like we passed the test.
Keep making jokes like that, Jarrod,
I'll be storing you in an underground bunker.
