I'll admit they spice up the show some when it comes to the bidding/rivalry between the 'stars' but the fact there is something valuable in the building means nothing when it comes to people paying. I've got a buddy that recently bought a commercial sprayer from a guy that had left the engine and main pump off of it in a storage building. The pump was worth nearly $1500 and the engine about another $1000 but the guy only owed about $150 for the storage. He actually sold the sprayer, and gave my buddy the engine and pump for the spray unit, to get the money to keep from losing everything else he had in storage.
This same buddy used to hit the sales all the time and it's amazing the stuff that people store. One that I remember best being told about was a unit full of sheet metal and other assorted 'junk' that could be seen from the door. Bidding started at $1.00 and no one wanted to pay to clean it out so no one bid. To get some bids going they decided to move some of the stuff around and see what else was in the unit. A few pieces of sheet metal later they uncovered a Snap-On tool box with several thousand dollars worth of tools in it. Needless to say my buddy is still kicking himself in the a$$ every time he thinks about the deal he could have had for a dollar.
