Shoot, if they're cheap, I may be interested in a few as well. I'd like to see what you've got available.

well we got to the storage building early yesterday and the guy that gave us the key screwed the guy selling it over cause he hasn't been paying the stinking bill. And everything got sold in the storage building in an auction 2 weeks ago, and he never told the guy that. I am devastated. I fell sorry for the guy though cause all his stuff that his dad gave him before he died got sold also.
I am so depressed.... :(

Dang. Sorry to both of you. He should have paid his bill, but he also should have gotten some kind of notification about the auction. Where is this storage place, so I can avoid using it and possibly burn down the house of the guy that runs it and auctions off other people's stuff?

um, hate to tell you, but they all do that. Check out a contract for a storage place and you'll see that non-payment means they sell your stuff to recoup their costs from the non-payment. This is how all that paris hilton exposed crap got out a while back. They left a bunch of stuff in a storage place and didn't pay the bill.

That just means I have to burn down more storage places.

yep. was gonna say that.

and, actually, it may be kind of devious, but you can find some great shit at those auctions if you find out when and where they are.
