Good show.
To start off, It says in the opening credits that Allan & Ton buy hundreds of Storage units a year, and these Stories(Episodes) represent the best of them. As a avid "Picker" myself, I can attest to the fact that sometimes, out the hundreds of things I find & buy, there a some that blow my mind. Things that I bought for $2-$5 that sell for $200-$300+. And on average, most items I buy & then sell, cost around 10% of the final sale price. This is consistent with these episodes. So anyone saying that these episodes are "Staged" IMHO, has no experience doing anything even close to what is represented here. The deals are out there, waiting to be found.
I do wish they would get more into the "other" side of these auctions though. Like how much it costs them to make dump runs on the junk, and maybe even show the day to day selling of the smaller items they always include in the final profit.
That said, I love watching Auction Hunters for the informative information...
The best in the Business
These two have rare chemistry and it is always entertaining
they are not predictable and have good sense for humor
Just too fake
It's well known now that the storage units in these sort of shows are staged with great finds, and not reality. I only purchased this video because it was related to my job and I was curious. They all play out the same, so save your money and watch a random episode on TV.
