I've been to a lot of storage locker auctions. They are a lot of fun but also risky. Usually, you have no idea if you are ending up with a bunch of junk or a goldmine.
I wonder if this guy had any clue what he was getting into when he bid on this locker.... www.ParisExposed.com Jim |

The way he capitalized on the purchase is pure genius!

Doubt he made a "lucky" purchase since state law requires that such sales be publicly advertised in the local paper. Some require that the owner's name also be in the ad, giving them a chance to pay up and avoid the sale.
I'm also betting that the owner of the storage units knew full well WHO it belonged to. ![]() Read about this on another forum, and the guy that bought the contents put up a website with photos, charging $39 for you to take a peek! The fellow behind this reportedly pulled over a Kool Million via his sales. Whew. Pete |

No Luck here...
As there's "Lots" more to this story! This wasn't just a Lucky storage locker auction as per the names behind the whole membership Concept... Great Publicity but the site is already out of business... And bits & pieces of Free stuff all over the internet with more Problems to come... So Not a great business idea in this case. http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&cl...on&btnG=Search http://tinyurl.com/2kktav Phil Last edited by Phil : January 28, 2007 at 08:55 PM.

You know you're getting old when after you watch the Paris Hilton bathtub video on YouTube, all you can think is.....
"Damn, I want a bathtub like that one!" Jim |
