  • Well someone missed out his calling as a gangsta rapper

  • Somebody needs to pester the Hester!

  • Love watching Storage Wars, Dan! The auctions themselves are always my favorite parts of the show :)

  • Yuuuuuuuppppppppp Hester is the best nobody can outbid him now the wow factor darrell is a moron lol lol lol

  • YYUUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPP!! .. i hate that asshole hester..

  • i enjoy the ,,not knowing ,,in this show ,all the best fe the rest of your shows

  • So where is the "striking gold" part Dan?

  • @redmatrix I am not aware of anyone finding gold at this sale, I just thought if they did find gold this would be a catchy title

  • @theauctionguydan I understand that you used it as a marketing tactic, which did its job (got me to click, and watch) But then again, the only reason that it worked was because I know people have found gold and silver coins in these lockers before.

    I really wanted to be happy for someone who found a cache of gold. So the title is misleading. I would surround it with quotes such as ..."strike gold" etc.

    None-the-less, an interesting video.

  • NOBODY'S THAT RETARDED? HOW DO YOU LEAVE SO MANY VALUABLES AND JUST FORGET ABOUT THEM?

    WHY DON'T THE STORAGE FACILITY OWNERS GO THROUGH THEM THEMSELVES AND TURN A HUGE PROFIT? IT'S KINDA LIKE THOSE "AMAZING DEALS" ON T.V.,"HEY,WE'RE GONNA SELL YOU THIS COIN COLLECTION THAT'S WORTH 1,200.00 DOLLARS,BUT IF YOU ACT NOW YOU CAN HAVE IT FOR LIKE $19.95!! I'M NOT THE SMARTEST GIRL IN THE WORLD,BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE AT ALL.

  • Oh and tell Jarrod to quit wearing those stupid tshirts. Brandi can do better than that scrub.

  • Dan the best part is when you get Dave making Darrell and Jarrod bid up on a locker that Dave doesn't even want. He's got the sly grim and goes YUUUP! LMAO.

  • this guys from storage wars(:

  • I dig the show and Dan.. not so wild about anyone other than Jared and Barry though.. rest seem to be people paid to boost up the price and being the auctioneer why not get the highest bid.. dude gets paid on a %age. Here in Florida though, I do believe an inventory has to be taken but that was a few years ago, rules do change. You Keep On Keeping On Dan. And The Lady!

  • abandon units are great !

  • WATCH MY AMAZING AND HILARIOUS

    SPOOF ON STORAGE WARS!!!!

  • I consider this my work and people seem to find it entertaining sorry you do not. Dan Dotson, Auctioneer

  • @theauctionguydan u are the man... and the show is great... needs more episodes..... more often though =( so exciting... especially with u as the auctioneer. its like a 22 minute adrenaline rush

  • @theauctionguydan Dan, thanks for posting these interesting videos. You're a great host on the show, keeping things lively, entertaining and fun. Keep it up!

  • I cannot believe that this is considered entertainment

  • YUPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!

  • typical americans eating americans for money greed

  • sad

  • being stuck at the back of the hallwway would suck - can't see crap!!

  • When I first heard of this show, I didn't much of this show but I checked it out anyways. I keep coming back to watch. I actually enjoy the show.

    I wonder if its possible to do an "overlap" episode with the two fellas from Auction Hunters.

  • Dan is it possible there are auctioneers or storage places that would fill units with junk just to cash in on all this hype created by the show?? -Myles F

  • me and my friends were doing a guessing game and my friend went ''19 19 19 sold!'' and i screamed DAN DOTSON and i said ''yuuuuuuppp'' and no one guessed it. i was like ._.

  • I always wondered if someone who defaulted on a storage payment, later sees their unit up for grabs, then realizes that they had a $3000 braclet in there or something simlilar.

    The one show,, the guy found a lot of cash tapped inside of the frame of an old oil painting.. yikes!

  • i put a video rsponse i love storage wars dane our awesome

  • what does this video have to do with striking gold?

  • i just found out about your show a few days ago, the day i did i ordered season 1. thanks for making a great show. i've always been a fan of thrift stores, pawn shops, and yardsales. one man's junk is truly another mans treasure.

  • FUCK DAVID

  • only thing i don't understand is that if someone has such valuable things in these storage's why don't they pay the for the storage, i don't know how it works ??

  • Come check us out guys! We have made contact with the producer and writers of Storage Wars! Also Darrell Sheets has talked to us, Jarrod Schulz has spoken to us and also auctionguydan! Thumbs this u so everyone can see!! For Proof Go here

  • is that guy a rapper.

  • YEP!

  • @Denthedragon its yuuuuuuuuuuuuup

  • Yet another way that lazy, worthless, no-talent parasites seek financial gain by accomplishing absolutely nothing.

  • Hey Dan!! My 16 year old daughter and I watch your show every Wednesday night! She stays up later than me watching all episodes that night!! Keep the great episodes coming... Greetings from Canada. One of the best shows on tv today..

  • How is this not robbery when your selling a storage unit much more then the outstanding monthly payment?

  • @Gyro911 The previous owner is entitled to any overages. These overages are kept for 1 year and then if not claimed by the owner these overages are handed over to the County Tax collector, What is robbery is when facilities refuse to sell the unit when it brings over the amount of what is owed, they stop the bidding process and close the door and wait to re sell at a later time when there are more charges due against the unit. That is robbery

  • @theauctionguydan OMG I did not know that this was you is Barry nice in person i like to think so i know Jarrod and Brandi probably are not so much Dave or Darrel and were you told that Daves brother was on a episode because i did not see any one besides dave mention it

  • @theauctionguydan If these lockers cost 60-150 bucks a month to rent. Each locker auction should not claim more then $1500 dollars but, i'm guessing the storage company justifies selling it for more by paying the auction arbitrator and claiming to lose rent profits for a year by not being able to rent it out to others so they cap the auction to triple the amount of the outstanding rent

  • @theauctionguydan s1 ep1 - if the units are not paid for 3 months they're sold on

  • @Gyro911 are u on welfare

  • @gatorsrocktimt I wish i was, whats better then recieving a government paycheck for sitting around home all day doing nothing.

  • @Gyro911 thank of it as just like a repo service. You don't pay and someone takes it. Say you bought a truck for 30,000$ and all you owe is 5,000$ but you stop paying, but the truck is still worth 15,000$, well they aren't going to sell it for 5,000$ because thats all that was owed, they are going to make as much as they can on it.

  • @Gyro911 lol are you serious.... hate it or love it .. its a good show... HATE IT OR LOVE IT SON !!

  • YEEEEEPPPPPPPPPP LOL dave is dope

  • Comment removed

  • Dan, you talk so fast! hahaha love the show :)

  • 3,000 noway

  • are the people who owe money allowed to bid? what if the money they owe is worth more than the contents ? they could just buy there stuff back & make a profit on there own debt! ha ha love the show BTW, Especially the guy who brings in midgets & psychics etc, & tell the bald guy to stick to lifting & carrying & have his wife bid instead!

  • Hey Dan, love the show, watch it all the time :) Tell Barry also to slow down when he is ripping through his items, he must wreck a lot of stuff!! Love your work, from all of us in Australia :)

  • Wait so when the storage wars guys are there you can go into the unit touch anything you want open boxes and there probably not cash only sales

  • @ghrbman96 I believe that it was explained in this video as it was an abandoned unit, that is the only time we allow anyone to go into the unit

  • @theauctionguydan oh thanks dan most of not caught that 

  • That's cool tell jerrod and Brandi that some random 13 year old boy (named landon) said hi :)

  • How do you talk so fast?

  • Man I love Storage Wars, but Dave Hester is a total fucking douche bag lol.

  • @WelfareSymphony

    That is 100% true...There was some douche bag that said Hester was his or her hero....Not sure if it was this thread......

  • @IMMORTALSNIPE Thanks Kid, We are glad you enjoyed the show Dan Dotson, Auctioneer

  • The United States is now a third world country.

  • One more thing, how does Barry remove all the crap he usually ends up with when he doesn`t bring a truck or a team of helpers He must be retired and have some money to play with, he usually seems to be just looking for something cool to take home.

  • I hate how they make it seem like some skill to bid.. You keep bidding if you have the cash and want the item, eventually someone will give up depending on how bad they want it. It's not a real skill like Dave seems to think it is, he just happens to carry more cash then the other people so when he See's a unit he knows has thousands of dollars worth of stuff he can safely bid up to a couple grand if he needs too, not rocket science. When i look at Darryl i think 'DUH, Freaking DUH!!!`

  • @afghi420 I guess they try to keep it exciting, as the act of bidding is somewhat thrilling... but it is annoying that they do try to emphasize the bidding too much itself. I can see why Dave can get cocky if he gets something at a low price because he saw something no one else knew was worth money. Plus Dave is an ass who bids people up to screw with them, so it gives the viewer someone to hate

  • 15304203542385 333 ggheugh445t6934 69 03689309

    what the fuck that guy is saying?! :O

  • yeeppppppppppp

  • why in the hell would you pay soo much for a pile of crap did you see something vaualble??

  • oi dan next time you see dave the little fat guy who calls it a profession, call him a fat annoying fuck and all of britain hates him. thanks comment what he says

  • @reznov1996 hahah funny, holy sh#@t I will go ahead and guess his response..... Dave would probably say "really Dan, they don't just love me over there? I am just being myself..... I will respond by saying Dave, watch the show and you will get it. Thank you for loving us from across the pond, we love our UK fans and so does Dave. Dan and Laura, Auctioneers

  • @theauctionguydan hahahahaha no problem dan i love the show, its so funny how they snap at eachother and how brandi gets pissed when jarrod buys a pile of shit and how dan jacks up the price just to annoy people .

    so thanks for replying, i love the show and i hope to see the new series soon. cyrus

  • ok SO u bid on the whole thing?? obviously not the actual storage unit but the stuff thats inside!??

  • @ItsJessieNotJesse Yes, even if you only see 1 item you like, you're buying everything inside and you have to empty it yourself.

  • I like how fast he talks always makes me laugh. I would go out there just to hear him.

  • That Darrel is one stupid bastard. When Dave and Barry were argueing you hear him in the backround saying 'We got a fight!!'. He is one of those morons... By the way bidding isn't rocket science, they all seem to just put up with Dave bidding them up, MAYBE if you started doing it back to him every time he would stop.. I suppose that would involve some thinking though, and it seems alot of people just can't figure that out.

  • what makes the unit abandoned or private? i thought every unit they sold was "abandoned"? Either for failure to pay or other circumstance, death/they chose to abandon it. can anyone elaborate?

  • @xxxdaedlusxxx Liened units are those units that do not get paid for and must go through a process prior to being sold, Abandoned units or manager units are units that either consist of remnants from all tenants that move out and have stuff to donate or the unit is signed off by the owner giving the storage facility the right to dispose of the property without dinging their credit, There is a greater chance that most of the valuable stuff has been removed prior to auction on an abandoned unit.

  • @theauctionguydan Thank you for clarifying!

  • @xxxdaedlusxxx after three months of no payments the unit is "abandoned"

  • honestly the auctioneer is soo annoying . hes got terrets.. if he dosent shut up within the next 30secs i will shoot him lol

  • @easypk834u Thank's, so what is it that you are saying?

    Dan Dotson, Auctioneer

  • @theauctionguydan Basically I am just asking for the next bid. One dollar, would you bid two?, two bucks, now 3, would you bid 3 bucks, is that you? two here, three where, 3 there now four, would you bid four sir?

    Thats basically it. Thanks for the question

    Dan Dotson, Auctioneer

  • @theauctionguydan hahaha

  • that guys got terrets... honestly he is soo annoying if he dosent shut up now i will shoot him. :L

  • You rock at this Dan! I always try to catch an episode of Storage Wars when i can. Hopefully one day i can finance my own bidding wars.

  • @KFire Alright, Thanks for watching and good luck bidding

  • @theauctionguydan Dan, awesome job! We watch the show as often as possible. Question, do any of the previous owners ever show up and try to buy some of their stuff back after it is sold? Just curious, take care man!

  • yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap!!! lol

  • A question for Auction Dan,

  • Comment removed

  • @GLOBALWARNING101 Not fake dude. we attend these auctions and the filming at times. we got one of the units from this weeks episode, one of the hoarder units. check out the video we posted about it. Dan & Laura are awesome people and very genuine.

  • Fake fake fake it's all staged why is it that the same people are always bettin soo fake just like the rest of these shows try to make it look as real as possible ..

  • @GLOBALWARNING101 The only folks that are featured in the show are on the show. If they simply tried to film and keep up with the auction action, The viewing audience would miss the "inside the auction " feel. Read around the blogs and post, we film all of the time. real audiences, real bidders, real units.

  • @MrSOARINGEAGLE7 God Bless you guys. Thanks

    Dan and Laura Dotson, Auctioneers

  • Do you Cherry Pick all the containers before selling? lol

  • @inhalefarts look at the car he's driving! 

  • Can't understand why everybody hates Dave Hester. I have modeled my business like Dave and have been pretty successful. He is a good aggressive buyer. Storage auctions out here are saturated with buyers(treasure hunters) who have no idea what they are doing. I've been buying from estate auctions the past few months because that's where the real deals are if you aren't a "treasure hunter". Hopefully it slows down so the real buyers can get back into storage auctions without blowing our margins.

  • Comment removed

  • @paulbongiorno Thanks for the comments.  Have a great St. Patties Day yourself and thanks for watching

    Dan Dotson,. Auctioneer

  • I was half expecting Dave to yell a heartfelt "YEEEAAAAAHHH!!!" :P Love the show.

  • don't the guy who says the bids play in that show storage wars? i heard that show is fake.

  • @bigcasey1995

    That's right Casey, the same guy. Would you believe me if I told you that a guy bought a unit yesterday with some trashy boxes and one trunk in it for 400.00 dollars and found over 20 grand cash in it. Believe it, my wife sold the unit. Things happen all of the time, we just usually don't hear about it or have a camera around to show the world.

    -Dan Dotson, Auctioneer on Storage Wars

  • @theauctionguydan.. I liked this show but there was this episode that made me think it was fake when that old guy brought a midget to help him big and the midget said to bid on a storage because he saw a light reflecting glass.. then under all those boxes its a fucken little car in there that shit seemed planned out oh yeah one epsiode they found like all these restauant appliances worth 12k like cmon now WHO IN THERE FUCKEN MIND! would leave 12k of appliances like really REALLY!

  • @YungLC You know you don't have to cuss to get your pointless point across. If you keep it up I will certainly cut you off and out of my channel. The back bidder in the show regarding the restaurant equip was Steven Grove with Kohn Megabo in Orange County, If you do not believe it was the real deal just ask him why he only brought 2500.00 and not more to the sale. The terms were cash only. I am good friends with Steven Grove, he is a rest. equip. dealer He ran out of money at the sale.

  • @YungLC The reason they show certain episodes is because something cool is found. If it was uneventful, the show would suck.

  • @YungLC i like your style! 

  • This show makes me want to get a bunch of boxes and label them to make people think they are of extreme high value, or even just get a bunch of TV boxes or appliance boxes and make them appear to be un-opened and brand new.. and then I hope Dave finds that locker and spends a fortune on it only to find that all the boxes were filled with trash and notes saying "F*CK YOU DAVE!! PWNED"!!! In fact ill even take a crap in one of the boxes just so he got a little something for his money.

  • @13098519 i like the way you think! 

  • Hey Dan....love the show but one question......it seems to me that people leave the most darndest things in storage. What kind of people leave this kinda stuff behind for others to get semi rich off of? I understand deaths and celebrities but the rest, I dont know.

  • @CerebralAssassin1977

    Your question was " why would anyone leave anything of life changing value in a storage unit to be sold for non payment" There are many reasons why people leave things that sensibly could be used to bail their life out of a jam. Why would a celebrity loose their stuff? Maybe they rely on people to keep track and pay.

  • @CerebralAssassin1977 Maybe sometimes they might put it in someone else s name for a variety of reasons. ie: ex spouse, assistant, family member. When the person that was "in charge" fails, the contents are sold. Sometimes multiple people put things in storage, Sometimes people go to jail or they have an event in their lives that makes whatever crap they have in storage seem like a very low priority

  • @theauctionguydan I understand somewhat...I just dont see how thousands of dollars in "stuff" could be of low priority. But anyways, great show, I love it nonetheless. I love the attitudes of each of the main guys.......definately suits the show. Dave is a bit too cocky for his own good though but its more or less probably just for the ratings.

  • I really want to try this one day.

  • Hey,

    What % do you need to come up to NY ??

  • why do assholes like those assholes on storage wars always make money...evil fucks...espesh dave ur a dirt bag...and brandy leave that doofy fuck

  • @SELTONE07 Good forces in the universe want nothing to do with their filthy money....

  • I thinks that's a great idea ispeakthrtruth1. We will put together a video sharing some of the stories of begotten treasures of the past. Maybe we will throw in as few horror stories just for flavor. Thanks for the idea. Any mores ideas, throw them at me

    Dan Dotson, Auctioneer

  • I think that's a good idea, to show the ugly part of storage auctions too.

  • dan how do you talk so fast i love it!?

  • @Ibringthetruth1 its because doin it that way would make them less money n they might not sell everything they don't let them walk in n search just look from the door that way they will bid a lot hoping it's something good getting the place a lot of money n getting rid of the stuff faster

  • Why do they not pull out the boxes and auction stuff off.

    It's just stupid man. I guess they think most of the stuff is junk, but its not.

    Bad business model?

  • Dan your website is down. Do you know if it will be up soon?

  • Hey it's that guy.

  • Cool videos, you kinda of remind me of Chris Farley, in a good way:)

  • you can't 'like' your own videos, that's not how it works..

  • i heard somewhere a dude found a dead body in a storage unit before is it true?

  • @PsychoticManiac

    Yes, It is true.That has happened several times over the last 10 years. 

    Dan Dotson, Auctioneer

  • @theauctionguydan thats crazy thanx for answering

  • Hi Dan,

    How do you find out about all the different type Auctions you guys do?? What I mean by that is the time and date etc.. Also do you ever do other Auctions out of State and if so where can I find out information about those?? I just found you on YouTube and really enjoy watching these Videos but I never see the guys from Storage Wars do they only come to certain Auctions??? Thanks for the info in advance. Eric

    P.S. Cool Show BTW!!! I really enjoy it.

  • @HDVideoPro2010 Hey Eric, thanks for watching the show. We are glad you are enjoying it. You can check out our So Cal auctions on our site at americanauctioneers. com, But for auctions all over the Nation and Canada check out storagetreasures. com Good luck and happy bidding

    Dan Dotson, Auctioneer

  • Wow 3000 for just onew omg!!!!!!! My dad gets these for free where we live.. The storage people dont like to go threw this prosses so they just call my dad and we go pick them up for free :).... i think the most me made off of a storage was 13000 or something... we found alot of old money :)...

  • @SaizCNM187 can i be ur friend so i can also get free stuff lol im trying to start a business with storage stuff

  • @haznip Depends where do you live?? lol

  • @SaizCNM187 lol san diego like in the logan heights area...i went to a storage auction other day by the airport it was alright 1 storage sold for 950 it was pretty cool, my first time going to one

  • @haznip Ya dude i live here in Alb NM and me and my dad get them for free we get really good stuff some times... The best thing we found where shares of a company, we sold them for 7000 it was pretty cool we find old money and other stuff.. Depends on how your luck is. sometimes we just find junk... But ys its really fun we have bought a couple of them but only for lik 100 buck and no more some times its not worth it.. Its a really fun bussniss.

  • the guys at 3:45 look like they pilfered a few items

  • Going inside the unit is not allowed!

  • $2925 says it all!!!

  • Is there any way you could explain the 64 day thing?

  • Whats the best deal that you have hear anyone getting? has anyone spent a few hundred and ended up finding something worth tens of thousands or dollars or more?

  • sometimes it can be life changing. There have been a few deals where folks have scored hundreds of thousands of dollars from one deal.

  • @theauctionguydan

    well gee dan. how about giving us a video with the best stories.
