[@jamesshattell1425]

What I like most about Alex is that once he takes possession of an object, he sees to it that it is either sold, passed off to someone else to profit from, given to goodwill , or properly recycled. If more people approached their possessions like he does, there might be less need for storage units. Alex, thought he does make a profit, he deserve it for the service he does for society in properly dealing with our limited resources.

I want to commend you on how much respect you have for the items that you find. You watch shows on TV and they literally just throw things in a pile looking for that "big score." It always makes me sad, because often times that is someone's life in that unit. Someone who either passed away or could simply no longer afford to pay the storage fees. That was myself and my husband 25 years ago as a young new couple. We had to move unexpectedly and put most of our belongings into a storage unit. Hard times hit and we lost the unit to auction. After all these years I still think about some of the things we lost (and Im not one to become attached to belongings AT ALL) but my husbands firefighter of the year award was in there. It warms my heart when I hear you say that you will return personal items etc to the owners. It would have meant the world to me for someone to have done that for us. So thank you, from someone who can relate to that situation very personally.

I love that he always tries to get personal stuff back to people. That alone earns my sub!

[@barneyrubble8141]

I like how you can buy a storage locker on line! Didn't know you could do that! Now I do! Thanks!

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

there are a few websites that host them online :)

[@susanmulvey6311]

Your son, Steven, "Mine"!! Hahahaha I'm so glad you gave the bike to Steven!! (Glad you guys gave the personal papers back) I really love your sweet family!❤️

i only have one comment for you and for anyone else who buys a storage unit. please be gentle with your thoughts towards the person who lost it. I lost a unit because my husband and i were promised a job by his brother several states away, and so we went with our six month old and all we could fit in the car. Everything else went into a storage unit. well, there was no job and by the time my husband could get one, i lost all of my things. There was a dollhouse that my grandfather had made and given to me... a set of dishes that was passed on to me by my grandmother...man, so many things. there is always a story behind why those units come up for sale.... so be gentle

[@DS-ky9dl]

I agree. Don't judge others because most of us have "skeletons" in our own closet.

[@Shannirae]

I'm finding these videos very enjoyable. Thanks 👍

[@aa999xyz]

nice change of pace, maybe by another one at a much lower price? Thanks for the videos

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

thought i'd give it a try! maybe i'll find a better one down the road.

Found this site from watching Taco Stacks. You two are both nice people who are honest about what stuff is worth unlike the 'reality' shows about storage lockers and pickers in general. Thumbs up and subscribed.

[@IndiAcres]

Your big tip off was the "GFS" boxes followed by the produce boxes. Dude worked In a restaurant

[@tehgingerfluff]

Just taking a moment to echo the love that others have poured out. I really love that personal documents and information are returned to the owner, they take care to pass off things that could benefit others to people that can work with them, stuff is donated, and trash is hauled away responsibly. My uncle had lost his house after a deep depression, where he literally just gave up and left the home before it was even closed. We lost family heirlooms (including flags from the caskets of military in the family), and we know he left behind a hoarder house situation. We saved what we could and put it into a storage unit, sold what we could, took in what we had space for. I can only imagine what they did with his house and everything he left behind.

Heart breaking to see someone’s life sold off. Still, I’m glad someone as thoughtful as Alex got it

[@praeliora]

Modern storage bin are mostly just like this, however it might be worth keeping an eye open for vintage lockers, some are absolute gems. Take a look at one 'Wades Venture' picked up recently.. Over a month and he's still videoing and cataloging a massive vintage collector haul.. You may even see some stuff you could buy for the shop too..

[@Beardblade]

I play Warcraft, if you have loot cards that are not scratched off for the code your gonna make money, if they are scratched then no someone already used the code in game

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

i found a few but they were scratched :(

[@adventurebob1354]

Also the CE boxes you won't get much unless they are/were sealed. They loose value by A LOT when opened as it's just random stuff you can get on the cheap online. MoP CE sealed was $80 Draenor was $90 as well taxes in brand new. Source I'm also a WoW player and have every collectors edition. The trading card game is just like Magic so some cards might be rare and might not. It's a huge gamble.

[@nathan_sweet]

@@CuriosityIncorporated Sadly, scratched cards and used collectors editions have very little to no value. :( It's only the unused loot cards and sealed collector's editions that are worth more than a few dollars.

[@destrierofdark_]

If you find cards that are however related to a trading card game (which then are usually in binders like that) then there's almost a guarantee there's value. My friend has well north of a thousand dollars in cards of his own I believe.

[@woofymellott6508]

Also warcraft player here

[@lattymom1]

I found this very sad. But thank you Alex for your integrity to return some of the personal treasures.

[@lbindert]

I agree with you about the storage unit thing. It would be cool if you had a thrift store or flea market but nahh.

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

thrift shop would make sense, but we are not the right shop for any of this stuff.

[@lbindert]

Exactly! Your hands are full enough now! It was worth a try tho.

[@ChayBode]

I liked the video mainly because you said you would return personal things, that says so much about YOU, nice :)
