Andy Martin said: (quoted from post at 12:22:40 03/30/10) I don't particularly care for the show because their goal is to low-ball some unsuspecting owner.
That's their goal but it rarely happens, if you watch.
In this day and age, fools are few and far between. Most of the places they pick are owned by people with similar mindsets and goals. These people don't let things go unless they feel they got a fair price for it.
In several cases, they have paid good money for absolute junk, much to the landowner's delight... Case in point that bicycle buried under a pile of junk that they dug out with the skidsteer.
Most of the people they pick certainly look like they could use some extra income. The stuff is just sitting in a barn doing nobody any good, and will probably end up in a landfill when the landowner dies. The pickers are doing these people a service, giving them a little extra "walkin' around money" to make their lives a little easier.
Yes, yes, I know... Emotional attachments and whatnot. If you watch carefully, you will notice that these guys are not forcing anyone to sell anything. People stick to their guns all the time on the show.
