Title: Storage Wars
Post by: tunnie on 09 September 2013, 13:42:42
Ok anyone else seen that pumped up American bit of crap TV show? People basically bid on "bins" basically storage lockers were people fail to pay up.

Looks like one American couple did just that, but found this in there. It's now expected to sell for close to £1m, lucky buggers!

Can't see them doing much either in the Thames, that car needs to be "driven" in beautifully clear water like in the film.

Great toy thought for those that have the money

This new programme is like the Quest Channel "Storage Hunters".

A weird band of bidders, who seem to be jealous of each others bidding and winning, give a strange fascination to the viewer - well it does for me.  One couple, and at least three individuals, seem to be particularly nasty and intent on getting one up on the "opposition" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
