The reason I don’t like these auctions is because when I was in high school, my family got evicted from our apartment and we had to put everything we owned in a storage unit because we were moving in with my cousin and she didn’t have room at her house. My mom got behind on the payments and then the storage company eventually auctioned off all of our things bc she couldn’t afford to pay it on time. That was about 8 years ago and I’m still saddened about all of my belongings, keepsakes and childhood memories I lost there. It was probably junk to the buyer but everything to me.

Wow, I learned something new. I never knew the person could purposely put empty boxes and fake expensive bags into a storage unit and can scam people with it. The storage place only gets to keep the unpaid fees and the rest from the auction goes back to the prior storage unit owner. I always thought whatever value that was auctioned, the storage place gets to keep 100%. I guess there are scams everywhere. But this one is more like a legal scam since no one is forcing you to put in a bid for the storage unit.

Yea for anyone else this is great advice. For Hope, she makes enough on this video no matter how successful the unit is or not that it’s worth it for her.

That’s a common trick where they go through and take the new value items esp guns and leave the empty boxes. One person found the contact details of the previous owners and they confirmed that the storage unit had been sold 18 months previously, and had contained items. Proving that the storage owner had been sold it twice!

When my aunt passed away her storage unit company literally suggested to my brother clearing out anything he wanted and then selling the unit rather than cleaning it out completely. My aunt was a hoarder, but the cleanest most meticulously organized hoarder in human history. Her hoard was labeled and a lot of it was good quality cleaning products or around the house stuff and most of her hoard was donated to a woman's shelter and a homeless shelter respectively. A food pantry took her non perishable food hoard. The storage unit sale resulted in my brother making $25 which he gave me to cover the stuff I had picked up from the store 2 days before she passed and she had wanted me paid for. She knew she was dying and made sure everything that we could want was at the front of the unit and everything we could dump was at the back. She didn't tell us she was dying until she needed hospice care. It's been months and I still miss her. If you want to remember my favorite family member take a picture of the people you love. My Aunt Lynie certainly did and the last day I saw her she asked me to rearrange the photos she brought so she could see them better. She had committed every photo she cared about to memory and still brought them with her to hospice because she loved to take photos of the people she cared about.

In order to sell “boring” storage units, sometimes the sellers will actually place items to make it look like you’ll end up with something good. That’s absolutely what they did with the Apple boxes. I’m willing to bet the owner of the units keeps all their Apple boxes or expensive product packaging just to plant them to sell the units faster. Side note: I would DIE for those platform crocs.

I enjoy your personality and how generous you are I subscribed I hope you reach your goal

It definitely makes me happy that she donates EvEry time. 🎉

The brandy doll is a dream!!! And the barbies and cars and dream house😍. The guitar and keyboard and Foosball, pokemon and consoles! Are like things i either wanted or total nostalgia!!!

I enjoy your videos because of your optimistic attitude and your authenticity of enjoyment, I also appreciate your generosity. One thing positive about this storage unit was how clean and organized it was, that was amazing compared to most units I've seen on videos. I love your sweet dog

Wait, I don’t understand how someone “purposely abandons” it but still gets the money?? Doesn’t it go towards the months unpaid and the storage unit company?

I think the employees there said it in the video, what they get for the unit usually ends up being more than they owed, so what's owed for the unit is taken out and then the people who abandoned it get what's left over.

Sounds like fraud to me lol

Who randomly found hope and never gave up with her

I just stumbled onto this channel. Glad I did 👀

Living vicariously through you because I could never handle buying one of these unit and potentially turn up empty. I wonder if the sellers of these units place boxes/fakes of items to get people to purchase.

Love these kinds of vlogs!!! So much fun seeing what you find! 🤍 Love you Hope! Happy New Year!

This one is very expensive. The efforts 👏👏👏 Watching from Philippines ✨

I have so many of those Barbies still in boxes too! Sad to know they still aren't worth much. Maybe in another 20 years. 🤷‍♀️😂

Hope I love your videos! You Tyler and Lee always make my day and I just became a new member!

Hey Hope, My husband and I buy storage units on the east coast lol and saw that you got the unit in Jessup MD. We had this one on our watch list FOREVER!! I actually went up to you during VidSummit to ask you about the lost cargo place you used. I'm sorry you got the unit but at the same time glad you got it so that we could see what was in it lol

I can't believe that Storage Wars is way more entertaining than this!

The pink off the shoulder dress was probably my fav from this

you are so generous!! love the joy despite the outcome, forever contagious!! 🥰

Well, lesson learned. I watch several of these storage videos and you can tell they were set up to look better than they were worth. Sorry Hope. You are an awesome lady and I do love watching your videos. Happy New Year. 🌹🎉

Definitely a setup! I thought management wasn’t supposed to have access!!

I used to work at a storage unit place in HS and occasionally we had to empty out units (we always waited until they were 2-3k aka a few YEARS behind payments, and offered their stuff back at discounted rates like 200 just for them to take it) but often times ppl just didnt want what theyd left in there. I joked once ab finding a body in a unit whose owner had been unreachable for years- I found two boxes of cremated remains. We contacted the funeral home and gave them to the family members we could get a hold of.

Love watching your videos gets me through some pretty hard time with anxiety. Thanks

Not sure how you come up with the funds, but I find it amazing how you donate all this stuff to people that need it 🥰

On ads alone she has made 15k on just this video.

I have those collector edition holiday Barbie’s! And a few others. Awesome!

This was fun watching this

I had no idea that when a storage unit gets auctioned the person whos stuff gets sold gets money for it. That seems like a CRAZY way to scam people.

Sheneneh and Tyrone scammed her 😂😂😂

Hope is my favorite KZread I haven't been watching for long but her videos entertan me for hours❤️

I have a lot of those barbies! My grandma always bought me two at Christmas each year. One i could play with and one to save. :)

I think he couldnt pay the storage fee from prison

The fact that i love your videos will never change the way ur kind and honest to ur viewers its un explainable 💜 btwn happy new year 🥂

Also as a comic fan I'm literally screaming do not open/take them out of the plastic at the screen 😂🤦🏼‍♀️ seriously though, please dont take them out of the packaging

You always keep character Vans. Vans doesn’t make enough of the comic/band/character shoes, and they sell out quickly.

I wanted to give you a tip: so when you go on eBay you can take a picture or look it up and when you do that go to filters and click sold and completed items and you will get more accurate prices

I hope you really got a lot of what you thought was garbage appraised in person and not just online.Seeing a professional in person is the best.

Love the optimism 💖 love your videos of weird clothes please do more

There’s actually some pretty interesting stuff in there. Not worth the $10,000 but still pretty surprising some of the things in there.

that's kind of fun, but a bummer on those empty boxes!

I was really hoping for a win. This locker, literally had a little bit of EVERYTHING.!!! Almost like. Hmmm lemme start collecting this now. Lol Thank you for another amazing video ❤

It only takes around three months for a unit to go to auction so it hasnt been sitting there that long!

I feel like the storage unit owners scammed y'all. They took all the real valuables then set it up to look like it was a treasure trove. Great video!

I can’t believe it was in Jessup - I work 1 mile from the cubesmart. Next time you’re in Maryland let me know. I’ll get you some amazing crabcakes. 😊
