Huge score ! We were happy 😊

The trip is, is that you're so young that you can't identify simple tools, even from the 50's. Thats why you are so amusing. Blessing your channel with kindness.....

When kayla said "we got the lenses thank you jesus" I just smiled as if I won a lottery!!!! Y'ALL rock this is fantastic glad the guy found the buck knife and breaking that box is everything...congratulations

[@woodworkingandepoxy643]

Made me want to shed a tear throwing that hand drill down in the box. That's $40 to $75 on its own. That old sand thing was probably a pretty penny too. Damn. It's a nice piece of furniture period. Get some wood glue and a few clamps and easy $200

[@Chaos-Unboxing1025]

Well hell yeah ... you are so STRONG¡!¡! I knew there was a reason I loved watching y'all's channel!!! The entertainment alone is always an added bonus!!! Y'all both always seem so happy and have such a positive outlook on things and believe me it translates through your vidz!!! I know y'all don't talk abt this much on yr vidz but it is so obvious that y'all live a GODLY life bc your sweet spirit comes right through and it passed on to others!! You both a shining examples of what "doing the next right thing" can bring you!!! Just been wanting to let you know that flipping finds and treasures is not the only reason so many ppl keep coming back to watch and are such avid fans!!! Thank you for what you do!! Oh and BTW ... my sweet lil 8 yr old grandson Xane absolutely ADORES you and loves to watch your vids with me. We may not can afford to ever buy anything being on such an extremely tight budget on disability but we will continue to support your channels and recommend that everyone subscribe! Keep on doing what you do... and we will keep showing up!!!! Lynne Tyre-Mock Waycross, GA

I dont care how unglamorous it was, ripping a phone book in half is IMPRESSIVE! Damn!

[@celestebarrentine3922]

Another good one in the end. So glad the telescope was there... and very well packed. Was holding my breath for you after the first video on this unit. Thank goodness for Dad and his truck and willingness to show up for you. Know you do the same for him. God bless and keep on picking!!

[@beardedthriftmachine]

Dad is great! always willing to help in smelly storage units lol

[@jeanmixon5401]

Hi Julian and Kayla, loved watching these two videos on the storage unit. So happy that you found the telescope 🔭. I’m late in commenting, so this might be in another comment, the 1943 steel penny was what was issued. If you find a 1943 copper penny, then you are rich. Because of the war, the copper was needed for other purposes.

[@RedStickLouisiana]

You were right, the first video was good and the second video was even better. I enjoyed the excitement and reactions as you cleaned out the unit and Kayla's camera work is first-rate. I'm looking forward to seeing how things sell on Flipzquad. Thanks!

[@leithsapitan1428]

I knew you were a cop, but forgot. Yep, look like a cop! Thank you for your service!

[@Mel_texas]

That silver folded up thing looks an ultralight camping table. The accordion of silver slats folds out flat and clicks on top of the base. REI sells them. They’re not cheap!

[@mirtaperezreed472]

I truly enjoy watching your videos. Please continue the amazing work you & Kayla do.

[@paulettedutcher2093]

Great video. Kinda thought there might have been a weapon in the safe, the jewelry was fantastic. Can’t believe your Dad found the knife in the pots and pans. It always pays to go through everything. Thanks for sharing!🥰

[@Marc-xr8me]

To fast to ruff almost throw the knife away but for sure you throw away money because of not being careful and watch closer WhatsApp a shame😢

[@stardust949]

I got such a feeling of sadness about all of these items from someone's life, abandoned. I'm glad you're "rescuing" what you can---and that you'll make back your money and that these items will go to new homes...but I'm still sad, thinking of some young man who just lost the threads of his life---or whatever happened. I would love to buy one of the paintings---of the planets and space!

[@davidkeetz]

I lost a bunch of stuff in a storage unit when I was young - my letterman jacket, some furniture, a whole box of photo albums and various music project master recordings - I had moved for a job out of town and went in on a unit With my two roommates and paid for two years of storage- found out at the end of the two years that the one roommate who had it in his name had stopped paying at the one year point and never went and pulled anything out - it all got sold. Never could track any of it down.

[@rhoward295]

The other thing I kept wondering was whether this was an Astronomy professor who got sick fighting cancer, put his/her stuff into a storage unit while (s)he fought the good fight at a hospital, had their youngster’s Pokémon put away for safe keeping, and sadly, the kid went into the system. I hope not cuz it makes me sad 😢

[@ThePickinPeddler]

Very impressed with the phone book! 🙂 You two are great. Keep it up. Reselling is a side hustle presently for me, but after two years PT I think I could make the leap...

[@beardedthriftmachine]

you def can - as you already know its alot of work but 100% can be a full time job

[@BleuCollarFndryMTL]

Furniture can easily be fixed. I love fix such things.

[@resellerrunner5149]

Telescope saved the day. Storage units are such a roller coaster ride going thru all the stuff.

[@beardedthriftmachine]

I know right! this one - box of old food - then a safe with Gold LOL

[@GrandmasGonnaFlip]

Such great finds in the back!! So happy for ya'll that the telescope was in there AND all the Cannon equipment, say what? just awesome! Love your videos keep them coming. Maybe let Kayla in front of the camera?

[@jdenmark6564]

A few of us at our church did a Power Team presentation for the youth group and we used to break piles of bricks, bend rebar into circles and tear phone books in half. It is technique, but still takes a good amount of hand, wrist and chest strength.

[@beardedthriftmachine]

I use to be into that strong man stuff - it was fun - alot more technique then people think: )

[@beardedthriftmachine]

Between me and dad he was the only one that could twist a deck of cards in half.

Julian - you are a funny dude regularly, but you are really prime time hilarious in a skillful, comedic-timing sort of way here on this vid! You two were my first pickers to watch and are still my fave ❤🙂 Fave line: "Smells like steamed crabs 🦀 in here" when you opened that one trunk lol 😂😂😂😂

Pool cues... Course thread is likely a BETTER cue! Ones that go together and look somewhat like a 'house cue' are called 'sneaky Petes'. Some will have a name near the bumper end that will help you look them up. Sneaky pete's can go from $20 to 4 digits by custom builders. Once in a while custom makers will not label the bumper end, but sign the cue in the diamonds..

That pool stick was a Meucci Sneaky Pete. It has 5/16x18 threads on it. The threads don’t make cues cheap or expensive either. Those sell for around 150-200 in good condition.

Great video! I laughed so hard watching you speed-tear the phone book. You ended up with some great stuff in this one. Thank you Jesus!!!

The egg beater was a hand drill.... still used when an electric drill is too much power. Check to see if there is a maker's mark. That will determine value. Hope you didn't trash the old cow bell. They also have value.

This was the best ending to a great unit (still having nightmares about the food bag: YUCK!!). I am glad the telescope was there (one of my fellow archaeologist had one that he used to bring on digs, but it was much smaller). I am always weirded out about finding ammo, but I am Canadian, so we aren't allowed to own hand guns. I am sorry there was so much to dump, but you have goodies to sell for sure! I hope all those Pokemon cards equal some cash$$. This was another amazing video, and I read that the TV works, so win-win! Hug Willow for me and I will check out the other channel to find out about the sales!

I hope you donate the furniture and regular everyday items to small second hand stores around town and give us the poor, a chance to buy and utilize household items and decor , the garbage collection industry just takes all of our shit and pays states or countries to let them dump / bury garbage!...... try to minimize garbage disposal by letting others utilize this stuff thru second hand stores and if you mention the stores you donate to on your site ( maybe donate to a different one each month) veiwers of your site might go to these stores and in turn help struggling businesses and contribute to local economy ,thanks for a cool show and website here we're experiencing it with you as you go

About the safe you should have contacted "the lock picking lawyer" - a YT content creator for nearly a decade and he could have very likely helped you open it... and then you'd just have to get a key made/reprogram if it had biometrics or install a new lock cylinder that came w a different key.
