00:02R.P.B.
00:05Rancho Palas Verde.
00:07Yep.
00:08Es una ciudad de beech, es hermosa.
00:10Es una buena oportunidad de que estos pequeños unidos que tenemos en Rancho Palas Verde
00:15es estará lleno de tránsitos, Dan.
00:17You never know.
00:18You never know.
00:18Si no producen aquí, entonces pueden seguirnos aquí en Garden Grove.
00:24That's right.
00:24Right.
00:25Yep.
00:25Tenemos dos auctions hoy, y estoy emocionado por un DP.
00:28DP, double profit, baby.
00:31That's how it works.
00:32The buyers flow where the merchandise goes.
00:35All right.
00:36That's a good one.
00:36Thank you.
00:37Twice the auctions, twice the fun.
00:40Twice the commission.
00:41That's right.
00:48When storage units are abandoned,
00:50Look at this one.
00:52The treasures within are put up for auction.
00:57I got scored on this.
00:58Don't let you end.
00:59Four hundred times.
01:01Oh.
01:01Ha ha ha.
01:02Nothing on the show.
01:04M-O-N-E-Y.
01:05Are you ready?
01:06Yeah.
01:07Yeah.
01:08Well, guess what we headed at today.
01:11We headed to Rancho's Palace Verde.
01:13And Verde means green.
01:15And you know I'm all about my green, America.
01:18Money is a universal language, so I'm going to get my Verde, boy.
01:22I'm going to get my Verde.
01:24Kitty bitch sharpening up all this dang going to spamish.
01:27See, machaca conwebo means snack.
01:29Sylvester means beer, and burrito means delicious.
01:33Mm, mm, mm.
01:34I hope one of these lockers knows what I'm talking about so I can make me some De Niro's.
01:39Show me the Verde, boy.
01:43Oh, I gave myself a rush.
01:49Here we go.
01:50I got my carry with me today.
01:52Yay!
01:53I got carry with me today.
01:56Yay!
01:56Is that a thrift store?
01:58Liza!
01:58Should we stop?
01:59Liza, if I can come around.
02:00Oh.
02:00I think we can all agree that focusing isn't necessarily my strong suit.
02:06Well, you said it, I didn't.
02:07But that's why I love it when you can come with me, because you're my squirrel tamer.
02:13The squirrel that's in my head.
02:14Hurting squirrels in Liza's head.
02:16Yes, I'm here to keep you focused, efficient, on task.
02:21Carrie, what would I do without you?
02:22I am really glad Carrie's here to help me stay laser focused today, because actually,
02:27you have a little something on your collar.
02:29Let me get that for you.
02:30Liza, sit.
02:31We'll do it later.
02:32Don't worry about it.
02:33Okay.
02:33I mean, it's kind of obvious.
02:36Okay.
02:36Here we go.
02:39Crack the whip.
02:41Oh, is that an animal shelter?
02:43I didn't know they had an animal shelter out here.
02:45It'll be there later, Liza.
02:49I got all things going for me today.
02:51I got my road dogs with me.
02:52I got my cash in my pocket, and I'm heading to Calis Verde.
02:56This facility is known for having big rooms.
02:59I'm going to buy a big room in a beautiful area and make a big, beautiful profit.
03:04It's as simple as that.
03:06The competition's a little bit stiff.
03:08They're going to try to give me a run for my money, but that doesn't intimidate me.
03:12I've just got to let them know that the Yup Man is here.
03:15There's only one goat in this business.
03:17Bye.
03:20This seems to be a higher-income neighborhood.
03:23Why?
03:23Because it's called Palaburbis?
03:25Palas Verdes.
03:26They even have a golf course around here.
03:28A golf course?
03:29Palas in it.
03:30Oh, man.
03:30That's a good sign.
03:31It's not really spelled like Palas, but still.
03:34Wow.
03:34Yeah.
03:35Spanish.
03:36What does Verdes mean?
03:38Green.
03:38Verdes mean green.
03:39I know about the Verdes.
03:41I know tres leches.
03:43Tres leches.
03:44Three different milks, huh?
03:46That's cake.
03:46Yes.
03:47I've got that one memorized.
03:50What?
03:51What?
03:53Oh, not caca con huevos?
03:55Caca what?
03:56Caca.
03:57Caca.
03:57That's .
03:58Yeah.
03:59Always comes back to caca.
04:00It always comes back to caca.
04:02Everything comes back to caca.
04:03We can all agree that no one wants a caca la ca today.
04:07Nobody wants no caca la ca.
04:09Always the poet.
04:10Poet.
04:11I am proud to announce that I just got myself a bougie new client in the beautiful city of
04:16Rancho Palos Verdes, and they just happened to have an auction this morning, so I'm going
04:20to head out there, enjoy the ocean breeze, and hopefully get something nice.
04:25I'm always looking for fancy upscale items, and Rancho Palos Verdes is just the place to
04:30find them.
04:31Wish me luck.
04:33Welcome to the auction.
04:34We're down in Lower Dotson.
04:35Before you go through these doors, you need to know the rules.
04:37You're going to go to the unit, remove the lock, open the door, give you five minutes
04:40if you take a look around, you can't go inside the unit, you can't open any boxes.
04:43And who's never got the most money in their pocket can own it today.
04:45Are you ready?
04:47Let's go, let's go.
04:48Let's go, let's go.
04:50Let's go.
04:52Oh man.
04:56They cheating.
04:56They going to hell with this.
05:06This is a 10 by 12.
05:08It's got to be an odd shade.
05:11Okay.
05:17Let me get my light in there, light it up.
05:21We got a little of this, a little of that, fans, came back chair.
05:25Lots of boxes, fragile, something blue.
05:28I like it, super clean.
05:30I might have to go for this one.
05:32This is actually probably the best unit here today.
05:34Yeah?
05:34Yeah, yeah.
05:35Just letting you know.
05:36We're in the basement, subterranean auction.
05:39I'm coming, man.
05:40Extravaganza, the cornucopia.
05:42I feel that.
05:43I got about 17 of them wheelchair things.
05:46Boxes, neatly packed.
05:48This must be a miniature pool table or something.
05:50Yeah, it's pretty cool.
05:51It's nightly packed, so they cared about this stuff.
05:54I might be in on this one.
05:56Hey, what's black and spammish?
05:58Negro.
05:59Hmm.
05:59Well, I pray that the man in Negro don't want it,
06:02because I see a lot of birdie in that unit.
06:05What you looking for today?
06:07My sanity.
06:08Okay.
06:10That's, you know what?
06:12Start small.
06:13One thing at a time.
06:14Baby steps.
06:15Baby steps.
06:16Well, there's a lot of stuff in here.
06:18It's like a lot of household items.
06:19I could probably find something worth buying in here.
06:22It's probably going to go for a lot.
06:23We'll see.
06:24I'll try it.
06:25We've got some furniture with some age on it.
06:27It looks like maybe a whole house.
06:30So it could be like a lifetime of belongings.
06:33We have like neatly boxed.
06:35I like that.
06:36Clothes.
06:37As they say, pride of ownership.
06:39I'm not too excited.
06:40Or do.
06:42I'm not sure which approach is better.
06:44Ooh.
06:45There we are, man.
06:46It's hot as hell.
06:47We ain't by the devil.
06:51No, not you the devil.
06:53I said we by the devil.
06:54Yes, that's what he said, though.
06:55No, I didn't.
06:56Yes, he did.
06:56I heard you.
06:57I heard you.
06:57No, I said it's hot down.
06:59He meant it.
07:00He meant it.
07:01I heard it.
07:01Great.
07:02Not a devil.
07:03I mean, Dave.
07:04He ain't going to let me have this unit.
07:06Nice big 10 by 12 unit full of boxes.
07:08And it's a mystery unit.
07:09Here we go.
07:09How much money?
07:10What's your place?
07:10What are you going to pay?
07:11And how much, how much, how much money?
07:12Where?
07:13They're going to be 100, 100, 200, 1, 2, 2, 2.
07:15There.
07:15We're going to be 3 where.

13:14y pops his drawer open.
13:16Voila, look at that.
13:17We have a beautiful little necklace here.
13:19I think the box myself is beautiful.
13:22So, I think I'm going to take all the jewelry to my jewelry guy
13:25because it's a really beautiful box
13:28and there's lots of jewelry in there.
13:30Later, I'll dig around and find the best pieces to get appraised.
13:33But hopefully, this locker turns out to be a real gem.
13:37All right, let's get through this.
13:40Money, money, plastic kitchenware.
13:42$10.
13:42Candles and coffee pots and this and that
13:45and kitchen items, $20.
13:48Just clean stuff.
13:50There we go.
13:50Another $20 in there.
13:52Those 20 or so boxes, $700.
13:55That was disappointing.
13:57Garden Grill, here I come.
14:01Rancho Palos Verdes was not necessarily a jackpot.
14:06It was disappointing, but you did stay focused.
14:09You didn't get distracted.
14:11Thanks to you.
14:13I know.
14:14We have to get a locker.
14:15Don't worry.
14:16Together?
14:17I have a good feeling about this.
14:23Let's see if that bathroom's open.
14:26There's always a line.
14:28There's always a line.
14:29A line for what?
14:30The bathroom.
14:33You got a number.
14:34You got your number?
14:35Oh, number one.
14:36Oh, you can't stand by the door.
14:38Oh, I thought you meant the number that I had to do.
14:44Here we are.
14:46Okay, get a good look, folks.
14:51There's a lot of stuff in here.
14:53It's not packed very well, and it looks like it's mostly clothes.
14:58Nothing jumping out for my clients.
15:01I don't think there's anything I have done.
15:03I don't like wicker, either.
15:04It's where the bed bugs are.
15:06I'll let somebody else get this that sells clothes.
15:08They got a 99-cent basket on the front of the bike.
15:12They got a 99-cent basket on the front of the bike.
15:14It's a female's unit.
15:16Pink hangers, pink sweater.
15:18I'm seeing too much Rosa and not enough birdie.
15:21Rosa is pink and spammish.
15:24Girly, girly, girly.
15:26You got a girl's bike.
15:28You got a bunch of boxes and ties and purses and hanging clothes.
15:33Every woman's dream.
15:35If the price is right, I'm in.
15:38What do we have here?
15:40That beach cruiser is actually a vintage beach cruiser, I think.
15:43Yeah, I like, um...
15:45All right.
15:46I like all stuff.
15:48This is good.
15:49Yeah, this looks like it'll be fun to go through.
15:50It goes back.
15:51Yeah, a lot of boxes.
15:53Okay.
15:54All right, let's just not act too overly excited.
15:58Gotcha.
15:59Come on, Lisa.
16:00Tell me what you think about it.
16:02It's all right.
16:03You can't keep the grin off your face.
16:05I'm always smiling.
16:06What are you talking about?
16:09Everybody's got a little tell there, Lisa.
16:11He's really trying to make you unfocused and distracted.
16:14Ah.
16:14But you're not.
16:15No, I'm not.
16:16Eyes here.
16:17Eyes here.
16:17And eyes later.
16:18Okay.
16:18Will you bid on this one for me?
16:20You want me to do it?
16:21I want you to do it.
16:22Okay.
16:23By having Carrie bid, I'm hoping that Dave doesn't realize we're a team.
16:27Shh.
16:29All right.
16:30Here we go.
16:30Number 20.
16:30What's your pleasure?
16:31What are you going to pay?
16:31Say how much?
16:32How much?
16:32How much?
16:32How much money?
16:33Where?
16:33I've got $50 right there.
16:34It's started.
16:35It's $75.
16:36$75.
16:36You're going to put it in there.
16:38What in the corner?
16:38$25.
16:38$100 and a half.
16:39$100 and a half there.
16:40$175.
16:41$175.
16:41What in the back?
16:42What in the back?
16:42What do you do?
16:43What in the back?
16:43What in the back?
16:44What in the back?

16:57$500.
16:57$75.
17:00$75.
17:01$375 going twice.
17:02$75.
17:04I'm not sure why I thought having Carrie a bid would confuse Dave.
17:06He's clearly seen us together all day.
17:09I'm going to blame the squirrel for that idea.
17:12$400 behind you.
17:13$400 going now.
17:14$425.
17:15I got $400 going here.
17:16$400 a half where?
17:16$25.

17:29I'm not sure why they can't even go to school.
17:32$500.
17:34Winner in college.
17:34I mean, cool.
17:35I mean, cool.
17:36Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool.
17:37Yeah, yeah.
17:38Great.
17:42All right.
17:43Two doors to this unit, folks.
17:45So it's easy access.
17:47All right, both doors are open.
17:48Take your time and take a look.
17:50Oh, this thing goes all the way through here.
17:52Double the door, double the store.
17:57Yeah, I like the totes.
17:58I've been on the totes.
18:00They got, what do they call that you put to the wall?
18:02Insulation?
18:03No, but they call it something else.
18:05Fiberglass.
18:05Him, yeah.
18:05They got their fiberglass.
18:07Yeah, I'm already itchy thinking about it.
18:09The critter poop hangs out.
18:10Oh, they do?
18:11And that insulation, yeah.
18:12And the fiberglass?
18:13They love that.
18:14Fiberglass, you know?
18:15Yeah.
18:16You know?
18:16Fiber.
18:18Oh, I feel like I come out of the swimming pools right now.
18:21I know.
18:22And I can't even swim.
18:24Oh, I hate it.
18:28But it's lovely for someone else, for sure.
18:30Yeah, somebody needs fiber, more fiber.
18:32Somebody, their bents are nice, you know, for someone.
18:35Yeah.
18:36Maybe somebody named Ben.
18:37Keep low.
18:38What do we got here?
18:39We got some tubs, black and yellow tubs, smaller ones.
18:43Furniture.
18:44A big chunk of insulation.
18:47Formaldehyde-free, though.
18:47That's good.
18:48There's, like, some crafting stuff in there.
18:51Fold away guests, man.
18:53I think we need to focus our way.
18:55This way.
18:58We've got Halloween and junk furniture.
19:00That's an easy noop.
19:02I like them tubs, though.
19:04Okay, what's my dad's?
19:05All right, we've got to make our nice unit here.
19:07If you're ready to go, I'm ready to go.
19:08And here we go.
19:08And how much money would you pay?
19:09That was, folks.
19:10I got five here.
19:11Thank you.
19:12It's in there.

19:33Woo!
19:34You got it, Kenny.
19:35You got it, Kenny.
19:35Lock it up.
19:36Fuck it, De Niro's.
19:38That is the end of the auction, folks.
19:39And don't forget to pay the lady.
19:41Thank you, everyone.
19:42Woo-hoo!
19:49Cute.
19:50Cute.
19:51Let's make a plan.
19:52Stay focused.
19:53Strategize.
19:54Start here.
19:55Move stuff.
19:56Make a little space.
19:57Use that at the table.
19:58With a plan in place and a carry by my side.
20:00This locker's going to be easy peasy city.
20:03I like those shopping baskets taped to the handlebars.
20:0750 bucks?
20:0850 bucks.
20:09All right, great.
20:12This little plastic unit of drawers are 15 bucks.
20:15What is this?
20:17Uh, is this a fan or a filter?
20:19Air purifier.
20:20Good brand, so 50 bucks.
20:22OK.
20:23Ooh, speakers.
20:25This is a portable grill.
20:27Nice little tapestry.
20:28Oh, that's a really pretty tapestry.
20:30Yeah.
20:30This whole box, 75 bucks.
20:33That's kind of fun.
20:34It's like kind of like fortune teller vibes.
20:3630 bucks for the pair.
20:40Excuse me.
20:42Hang on.
20:43Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
20:44Oh, this one's very Y2K.
20:46This is what we want.
20:47That is Y2K, which is just so weird that that's what people would buy.
20:52$60 worth of clothing.
20:54Nice.
20:54OK.
20:55We love the Y2K.
20:56I'll sell the Y2K.
20:57I won't wear it, but I'll sell it.
20:58You'll sell it.
21:01Hello.
21:03A little fringy, fringe, fringe.
21:06Ooh.
21:08Gross.
21:09What is that velvet?
21:11I think it is.
21:13Oh, that's fine.
21:14$15.
21:15Yes.
21:15What do you think, 30 bucks for the one with the rhinestones?
21:18Y2, OK.
21:21Oh, wait, more Y2K.
21:23Oh, oh, oh.
21:24We got to be Y2 careful.
21:25Yeah.
21:26Oh, I love the belting.
21:28Can you explain to me again, why is Y2K popular?
21:31You know, it's just like, you know, the 70s are back, 80s are back.
21:34What's next?
21:3590s?
21:372000s.
21:37The early aughts.
21:38Yeah.
21:39That's what the young girls want.
21:40$40.
21:41What is this?
21:42Oh, that's some money.
21:44Y2 cool.
21:46This is about an $85 unit.
21:48Ooh, an exercise trampoline.
21:51Yes.
21:52See if it works, Carrie.
21:5340 bucks?
21:55Oh, yeah.
21:56Let's get...
21:56Oh, look at that spring.
21:58Uh-oh.
22:00I heard a crack.
22:02And lesson learned.
22:04You lose focus, you get hurt.
22:06Yowch.
22:07We got some leopard prints.
22:10OK.
22:10Some plaids, some floral.
22:11Some more corsets.
22:12These are good.
22:13I'd say...
22:14Ooh, this gown's great.
22:15OK.
22:15I think with all this, $175.
22:17I'm going to say this box of vintage china, $50.
22:21Jewelry box, $25.
22:24Ooh, silk kimono.
22:26Oh, that is fantastic.
22:27Look at these colors.
22:28This is $100, Alisa.
22:30More vintage.
22:30That's it.
22:30I mean, 90s, but $25.
22:33Yeah.
22:33All day.
22:34This is very good.
22:35It's a duster.
22:36It's floor length, $50.
22:37Here, look.
22:38This also.
22:39Vintage.
22:40$25.
22:40Let me just put it up here real quick.
22:44Oh!
22:45Oh!
22:46This is cool.
22:53Oh!
22:56Wow.
22:57This took a while.
22:58I tried to macrame once.
23:00Did not last very long.
23:03Oh, here's another little piece.
23:04People are into this macrame right now, too.
23:06You put your plants there.
23:08This guy took hours.
23:09This one is the grandpa of all macrame.
23:12I'm not, like, super knowledgeable in the woven arts.
23:16No.
23:16But what do you think?
23:17Maybe we could find someone who could tell us the value of this?
23:21Yeah.
23:22Oh, wait a minute!
23:25Wait a minute.
23:25We've got more macrame!
23:27Lisa, this looks amazing.
23:30Wow.
23:31I've never seen one like this.
23:33I've only seen the ones that are rope.
23:35I've never seen it with the wood.
23:37Man.
23:38Oh, God.
23:38Which way does it go?
23:39Okay, so here's the top.
23:41Wait.
23:42Gosh, this is amazing.
23:43Okay, wait.
23:43Did we get it?
23:44No.
23:44No.
23:45I know.
23:45We're going to need somebody to help us even just untangle it.
23:49I'm going to find a macromaster.
23:51Oh, that's a thing, isn't it?
23:52I think we need the master.
23:55I'm kind of obsessed with this.
23:56Can you even imagine the amount of focus and concentration that it would take to macrame
24:01like that?
24:02Because I cannot.
24:04Here, Carrie.
24:05Some clothing.
24:07Oh!
24:08Get in there, girl.
24:09From the era of the early 2000s.
24:12Oh, God.
24:13More velvet.
24:15Winsygots box.
24:16This is $175.
24:17You know, even though there's been a lot of poppycock, we've still definitely made our
24:21money back.
24:22But I'm just not exactly sure how we're going to get out of here, Carrie.
24:26They don't know either.
24:32Come on, Garden Grove.
24:34Let's help Kenny grow some verdes around here.
24:38Let's do this right here.
24:39Hey, America.
24:40Where did you go?
24:41Oh, you're right here.
24:45Look at that right here.
24:46It looks so presentable on the box, huh?
24:48Good $45 right here, boy.
24:50Just made my money back right here.
24:53What do we got?
24:57What the hell is this?
24:59Merry Christmas.
25:01Let's get wild.
25:04Hey, kids.
25:05What sound does a rhino make?
25:09That's right.
25:10I don't know neither.
25:12I'd say about a good $10 for this right here.
25:15End table.
25:17I'd say about $10 a piece.
25:19All right.
25:19This is called fiberglass, America.
25:21You don't want to fool with this.
25:22This is very dangerous.
25:24Your ass will be itching for two weeks.
25:26So this ain't no money.
25:28Oh, this a purse.
25:30Look at this, boy, with the gold trimmings.
25:32You can look sexy right here.
25:33You know what can make it even sexy?
25:35Put some grilled ham and cheeses in here.
25:37$45 big one.
25:38We got another one.
25:39Another $45 big one right here.
25:45Please let there be some good in here.
25:47I mean, some good stuff in here.
25:54Dog food, bro.
25:56Man, it's a ball feeder.
25:59This is a dog's ruby cube.
26:01This boy, he'd probably be mad.
26:02Why the you put the crevels in here, you stupid ass?
26:05Zoo food.
26:06And this is what they're going to feed that rhinoceros.
26:08Some exotic-ass dog food.
26:11To get him all sexy enough so the other one could say,
26:13oh, girl, I love your material.
26:16And exotic is different than erotic?
26:19My bad, America.
26:20I'm sorry.
26:21I didn't read the whole fine print.
26:23But I don't think he'll play with this .
26:25I don't think he'll play with this.
26:27Let me see.
26:27What animal you think will play with this?
26:29Because there ain't no hypnopotamus going to do this.
26:31This is something I would love to get this looked at right here
26:34and see what kind of exotic animals that's going to eat this stinky-ass food right here.
26:40Okay.
26:41This is claw marks.
26:45Look at that.
26:45This has got all kind of claw marks on here.
26:50Nice kitty.
26:51Nice pretty kitty.
26:52I wonder what kind of animal would get so mad that he want to beat up this piece of plastic
26:57like this.
26:57Now, see this, I'm putting two and two together, Mira.
27:02See, the tiger barracuda, he probably was pissed off because of the food in here.
27:07He was scratching all this up.
27:09See, I'm a detective.
27:12Animal detective.
27:13And we're going to see what animal these toys go to.
27:16Anybody got Ace Ventura number, he probably know.
27:22All right, I guess this is the place.
27:24Yeah.
27:25Oh my gosh, look at these knit stair railing.
27:28I'm off to see Courtney Freemeyer, one of the finest craft teachers at Remainders Creative Reuse.
27:34She's going to help me weave some money out of all this macrame.
27:41Okay, we've got a gigantic pile of knots.
27:46Yeah.
27:47Knots, yes.
27:47So, what exactly is macrame?
27:51Yarn art?
27:52Fiber arts?
27:52Fiber arts, yes.
27:54So, macrame is sequences of knots, but is actually considered a type of lace.
27:59Isn't really?
28:00Yeah, lace at its core is like anything that the design is based on the spaces between the thread.
28:07Oh, that's...
28:08Versus knitting or something that, you know, it's all the threads themselves.
28:11You use either a hook for crochet, you use the needles for knitting.
28:16Right.
28:17For macrame, you're just using your hands.
28:19All hands, baby.
28:20All hands, baby.
28:22Ooh, so macrame is like a sexy version of knitting.
28:26Nice.
28:27So, we have a small one here.
28:30Twist it out.
28:31Let's see.
28:31Oh, I think it's a little twisted.
28:32Through here.
28:33It's like a woven Rubik's Cube.
28:35I think maybe it's inside out.
28:36Right.
28:36Because this is...
28:38Same.
28:39We can do this.
28:39We can do this.
28:40Yay!
28:40There we go!
28:41Yay!
28:43The macrame wizard over here.
28:45All right.
28:46It's nice.
28:46It feels like a genuine cotton cord.
28:49It's got a bunch of half double hitches.
28:51Oh, the ye olde double hitch?
28:53Yeah.
28:53But it's really well...
28:54It's well done.
28:55How long would, like, these take?
28:57Um, it could take like five, six hours.
28:59You know, as you get more proficient, you get a lot faster with these.
29:02But, um...
29:04And how old do you think that is?
29:06I would guess this is from the 70s.
29:08So am I.
29:09So, is macrame usually to make things to put things in?
29:14Yeah.
29:14So, these are examples of things to hold plants.
29:18Like, you can put two plants in here.
29:21Sometimes something like this could be used as like a fruit basket.
29:24Oh, that's cute.
29:24You could put your bananas in here or something like that.
29:27I love that.
29:27Hang it in your kitchen.
29:28This is definitely the most intricate.
29:30So crazy.
29:32Wow.
29:32I've never seen one that big.
29:34This one feels like it's made out of acrylic, probably to make it weatherproof for outdoors.
29:40It is very elaborate.
29:42You just have so many layers of...
29:44It's dense.
29:45...knots.
29:45Yeah, yeah.
29:46You have this whole thing of alternating half-knots in between.
29:51I would guess this could take a hundred hours.
29:54Wow.
29:55This would not be a one-day project.
29:57Yeah.
29:58Someone's really gotta love the art.
30:00Yeah.
30:00Yeah.
30:00This one is...
30:01Oh, wow.
30:05This one is...
30:06Oh, wow.
30:07Yeah.
30:08Very unique.
30:08I don't think I've seen one like this before.
30:10Can I...
30:11Okay.
30:12Can you help?
30:13Yeah, if you could help.
30:14This is a three-man job.
30:16This is a three-man job.
30:17Wow.
30:18Okay.
30:18Right?
30:19Look at this.
30:20It has like the beadwork and then the trivets that have like a woven design.
30:24Mm-hmm.
30:25These would be square knots.
30:26And here you can see there's a synet of square knots.
30:28Synets are when you have a row of them.
30:31But half knots, which is just one part of the square knot, when you do a synet of half knots,
30:36you get this effect where it starts to twist.
30:39But yeah, I'm guessing this one would take 20 hours.
30:42All right.
30:43So not to be materialistic, but how about let's get to the macro money.
30:47What do you think these are worth?
30:49Yeah, this does look vintage, but it is one that I could see being just a home project.
30:55But I could see you selling this for like 30.
30:58All right.
30:59So this one, I'm sure, took a lot of time, the most of any of these three.
31:03But one thing to note is that it does have some wear and tear.
31:07You can see some fraying on some of the ends.
31:09You can see some rust stains.
31:10But otherwise, it's in really good condition.
31:13So I would say 350 for this one.
31:15Ooh, now we're talking.
31:17This one, it is definitely the most unique of your lot.
31:22There are not many others like this that I think are on the market.
31:26I think you could get 420 for this.
31:30420, great number, Courtney.
31:33Looks like I just macro made myself a nice profit.
31:36I am not mad about that, Courtney.
31:40You're welcome.
31:44All right.
31:45What you got?
31:48Racks.
31:48On racks.
31:49On racks.
31:49On racks.
31:51All right.
31:51Now I'm intrigued.
31:55You weren't kidding.
31:57Yeah.
31:57Lots and lots of racks.
31:58I know.
31:59Definitely going to work for storage.
32:00The way I see it, I need to make $2.75 on this unit to get those racks for free.
32:04Let's do it.
32:05Okay.
32:06I just bought it for the dream house, to be honest.
32:10It...
32:10I didn't do it, I swear.
32:13Well, there's some empty boxes.
32:16Perfect.
32:16Well, you know, we can always use some boxes.
32:19What do you got there?
32:21I don't know what this is for.
32:22Like, it goes on your belt.
32:26What is that?
32:27Oh, it's a lightsaber belt clip.
32:28Come again?
32:29Bad ass.
32:30Do you have a lightsaber?
32:31I do.
32:33As a matter of fact.
32:34You do?
32:35Yes.
32:37Unique.
32:38Oh, those are cool.
32:40Some Darth Vader sneakers.
32:41Some Vader lover will get them.
32:42I don't know what kind of sneakers these are.
32:44Look at these bad boys.
32:46What?
32:47Wait, what size are those?
32:50I was gonna...
32:51Hold on.
32:52Oh, wait.
32:53Oh, my God.
32:54Oh, a little too big.
32:56Oh, they're too big?
32:57No.
32:57A little too big.
32:58I don't think they're too big.
32:59They're too big on the ankle.
33:00You got some pretty sturdy ankles.
33:02That's what I mean.
33:02Yeah.
33:02Yeah, these are cool.
33:04Somebody will think that they're cool.
33:05Exactly.
33:06And they'll pay for it.
33:06And they'll pay for them.
33:07Custom sneakers.
33:08I don't know.
33:09I'll say at least 50 bucks a pop on them.
33:10All right.
33:11Oh, look at this.
33:13Shut your mouth.
33:14It's a PS5, but I can't.
33:15Oh!
33:16Yep.
33:17Winner.
33:17Yep.
33:18I think this pays for the unit right here, right?
33:20Uh, you think you can get 300 bucks for that?
33:22Yeah, probably.
33:23All right, 300 bucks for that.
33:24Units paid for.
33:25Most women pay good money for their racks, but not me.
33:28I just got mine for free.
33:29All right.
33:30Is there actual Halloween costumes in here?
33:33Well, put it right here.
33:34Okay.
33:34I made a black table right here.
33:36Yep.
33:37Ooh, there it is.
33:39Sturdy.
33:40I've always wanted those from when we go to the dump.
33:43Because you have to wear a hard hat.
33:45Got no price on that.
33:46That's mine.
33:48These are some cool costumes.
33:49Oh.
33:51From Guardians.
33:53Here.
33:54Stallywag.
33:54No, not the hair.
33:56Don't mess the hair up.
33:56It's already done.
33:58Costumes.
33:58They're not awesome.
33:59I'd say 50 bucks on that.
34:01Okay.
34:01All right.
34:02Let's get this in the car.
34:03Okay.
34:04Let's get on out of here.
34:05Uh, well, you want to keep the racks?
34:07Which ones?
34:08All of them.
34:08We're going to put...
34:10Yes.
34:11We're going to put everything.
34:12Come on.
34:13Rack on rack on rack?
34:14Mozak!
34:14Come on!
34:15All right.
34:16All right.
34:21Where the hell are you at, man?
34:27That's a big-eyed dog.
34:29I'm at the Forever Wild Exotic Animal Sanctuary to meet with its founder, Joel Omquist, to see
34:35if any wild beasts want to play with my toys.
34:39What is this place, man?
34:41Uh, so this is Forever Wild Exotic Animal Sanctuary.
34:44We rescue exotic animals that are, uh, either need to be, you know, rehomed or animals
34:51that were illegally owned, things like that.
34:53And we take them in and give them a safe place to live for the rest of their life.
34:57Hey, that boy, what you doing?
34:58You about to open that cage?
34:59No, we're just going to feed her underneath.
35:02Oh, no.
35:05You about to open that cage?
35:06No, we're just going to feed her underneath.
35:08Oh, no.
35:10He's looking at you like lunch.
35:14On that note, eyes gots to go.
35:17I don't want to be nobody's lunch, but I'm not going to leave here until I see how much
35:21my stuff has worked.
35:23Come on, kitty, be brave.
35:24I don't know what I found, but I thought this was a drum at first.
35:29That's what I thought it was.
35:30Well, it's not quite a drum.
35:32This right here is a boomer toy.
35:35They come in different shapes and things like that.
35:37This is built of a, you know, very high density plastic.
35:40I see some scratchies on here.
35:42Yeah, yeah.
35:43But it's pretty thick plastic, and we give them to, you know, the lions.
35:47We give them to tigers.
35:48The animals can, you know, play with it.
35:50But I bought some more toys and stuff.
35:52It's like a torture ball, right?
35:54Yeah, so this right here is like an enrichment feeder.
35:57So we'll put fruit, meat, things like that, give it to the animal, and they'll roll it around.
36:03Food will come out of it.
36:04You know, it keeps their minds moving.
36:07We'll use these a lot for the different primates.
36:09So what else you got here?
36:11All right, we got hibbles and bits.
36:13I thought it was exotic stuff for the animals.
36:17Yes, yeah.
36:18So this.
36:19Sexual chocolate.
36:20Sexual chocolate.
36:22This is actually like a dry food for small, exotic felines.
36:28Like bobcats, servals.
36:30I see him over there.
36:31Is this like for vegan animals?
36:33No, it's actually a meat-based diet that's in there.
36:38It's just freeze-dried and, you know, things like that.
36:41Yeah.
36:42Break this down to let me know how much all this Babalu toy stuff is.
36:46Well, the freeze-dried exotic feline diet is probably a $25 bag.
36:53For real?
36:54Yep.
36:54All that, you know, this nutritional stuff?
36:56Yep.
36:57All right, let's get to the, um, the volleyball and the drum right here.
37:01So the, the ball feeder, 40 bucks.
37:0440, yeah, for real?
37:05Yep.
37:06Now let's get to the big ancient mulatto.
37:08The tom-tom.
37:10So the big one, and this one is literally brand new.
37:14Uh.
37:15Really?
37:16Without them scratches?
37:17To me, this is brand new.
37:18There's not bite marks through it.
37:20Um.
37:21You're probably looking at...
37:23Oh.
37:26130 bucks?
37:27Get out of there.
37:28That's a lot of scratch for some throw up plastic.
37:31You know, I don't have no use of it.
37:33But I'm thinking about giving it to your foundation.
37:36I really appreciate that.
37:38That is awesome.
37:39See if we can end up giving this to either one of the tigers or the lions or bears.
37:43Lions, tigers, lepers.
37:44Oh, my.
37:45Oh, yeah.
37:46Yeah.
37:46I know that movie.
37:53Mike.
37:54How are you?
37:55Hey, Dave.
37:56Long time no see.
37:57Good to see you.
37:57I'm bringing a jewelry box and some choice pieces that I found to my local gemologist,
38:02Mike and Michael Moses Jewelers.
38:04I found this beautiful, cool little box.
38:07Great.
38:08And then there was a box of jewelry in there I picked a few pieces out.
38:11I thought it might be diamonds and gold.
38:13So, first off, what we're looking at is obviously a jewelry vanity.
38:17The condition could be better, but it's all original.
38:20And, uh, of course, we see some wear down in this area here, but still a great piece.
38:24Obviously, we're missing the hidden compartment drawer here.
38:27I'm noticing this mother of pearl inlay here.
38:29It's got some wear, and it looks like it's been refurbished once in the past, quite some time ago.
38:33So, it's already had its life.
38:34Still a great piece.
38:35So, we're going to start with this ring here.
38:37Okay.
38:37What we have here is a marcasite inlay mother of pearl ring.
38:41This is a period-correct 1920s, hand-fabricated most of it.
38:45On the back, you can see how the plate's been added separately.
38:48What really makes this ring great is that it's all original.
38:51The condition of the ring is a 10.
38:53There's no question about that.
38:54It's over 100 years old.
38:56It is actually pretty special to still have one of these in this condition.
38:59Very cool ring.
39:00So, now, let's move on to this lipstick compact or vanity, whatever you like to call it.
39:07This piece dates to circa 1920, just like the other marcasite ring you had.
39:11So, the springs are both working, which make it, in terms of condition, pretty darn good.
39:16Right?
39:16Pretty great.
39:16The mirror, not cracked, not broken, appears to be the original mirror in here.
39:21Great piece.
39:22This is a piece I really like.
39:24I really like this piece for a couple of reasons.
39:26The condition, and I love the patina.
39:28It still has original patina.
39:30The style is screaming 1920s.
39:33So, for someone who really likes that style, I would imagine that they would be really excited to see something
39:38like this.
39:39I think this is a really great piece.
39:40A lot of deco pieces we have here.
39:42As far as styling, it's the winner.
39:44The stones in here are paste.
39:47What does it mean when the stones are paste?
39:49They are stones that were developed in the 18th century to emulate a diamond, right?
39:53You can get this really big look for not a lot of money.
39:56People have this idea that costume jewelry is inexpensive.
39:58I've seen paste necklaces get into the thousands of dollars.
40:01In fact, there's a big collectability for those necklaces.
40:04Collectability?
40:05That means money.
40:07All right.
40:07The earring.
40:08Dave, just like the other pieces, the condition is really great from the 1920s.
40:12Everything we're looking at in here is all diamonds.
40:14Quality-wise, on a scale from 1 to 10, these are a 9, maybe a 10.
40:18And that's what's great about older jewelry.
40:20Typically, you're seeing higher quality diamonds being used, better color.
40:24Just everything's just a little bit better.
40:25There's a better craftsmanship.
40:27Absolutely.
40:28So, this type of setting that the stone is in is called a buttercup setting.
40:32You have this metal that surrounds the stone.
40:35It makes the stone look larger.
40:36Quality is really high.
40:38I think they're great.
40:40Now, moving on to the last item that we have, this bracelet here.
40:44It's not as old as these pieces, but quality.
40:47The weight of this, Dave, you can feel the weight of this.
40:49Lots of diamonds.
40:50Lots of diamonds in there.
40:51Little diamonds in here and little diamonds in there.
40:54You got diamonds everywhere in that little thing.
40:56Diamonds are a man's best friend.
40:57It's all been hand fabricated.
40:59You can see that there's just a lot of work to make this rivet.
41:02Today, you have these that are mass manufactured and then assembled.
41:06It's very heavy.
41:07You wouldn't get a bracelet today that looks like this and expect it to weigh this much.
41:10It's very unusual.
41:12Mike, what do you think the total value of everything I have here is?
41:16Dave, you have some great pieces.
41:17After we spent the time going through it, I think pretty well in detail.
41:21Dave, no question about it.
41:25It's $10,000 on what you have here.
41:27I don't like to cuss, but I would say that's effing great.
41:30I'm a little bit embarrassed that I let my emotions get out of control like that.
41:34Love it.
41:38Dave Hester saw that diamonds really are a man's best friend.
41:42Making a sparkly 9,600 stones.
41:46Lisa Delario stayed focused, weaving together a prophet of 1,400 knots.
41:53Brandy Passante proved she still has the best racks in the game.
41:59While Kenny Crosley survived an El Tigre attack.
42:04And walked away with 120 in Cold Hard Bear Day.
42:09Ashley, straight through.
42:11Oh no, did I do those wrong?
42:13I mean, no.
42:14Oh, I wouldn't worry about it.
42:15Oh.
42:16This is how I like it.
42:17I like when the teacher shows you what to do and then she ends up doing it for you.
42:21Great.
42:21I need some elbow room.
42:23You guys, I might need to separate you two.
42:25That wouldn't be the first time you've heard that.
42:27I'm getting it.
42:28I think I'm getting it.
42:29I'm getting it.
42:30Oh.
42:30Let's pretend like we're kind of done with that section.
42:33Let's just, let's do that.
42:34Let's pretend.
42:35Courtney, are we your best students you've ever had?
42:38They may not be the best macrame students I've ever had.
42:42Um, this project is supposed to go for just a half hour, but we may be here a little longer.
