Joe, a middle-class man had recently developed an interest to bid. He had heard a lot about people striking rich by offering tricks in the auction. All in all his experience was good so far. Just like the previous hours, he did and won his offer on a storage unit. The unit had a lot of things crammed. Unfortunately, most of them irreparable. Now, the man started wondering if he commissioned a mistake. Crossing things, he had his attention caught by a container. Well, he could not hold his curiosity and open the container who turned all his dreams into a nightmare. This worst, the man found the police struck at his door after a few hours of opening of the container.
The dream of a life
He was still in doubt. It was nothing less than a bet. He was going to have something precious or losing everything he has won so far. The man was frightened but he was hope too. If succeeded, he would change his life for the better.
Thrill of the offer
The man was not a professional bidder. He was still having a hanging one. As they say, man learns practice. Betting on storage containers is full of risks. You do not know what is inside them. They could be full of garbage can or hide something valuable. Many bidders had gained big dollars through that, then there were some who regretted it later.
Something precious
The man had heard stories of people who find classic cars, precious stones and ancient objects that sell sold in millions. He also wanted to give him a shot. Who maybe know that he will also find something valuable. His wife was too excited about this purchase.
Everything is fine so far
So far, he had a good experience if it is a great experience in the auction. Whenever he has managed to sell the contents of a little higher amount than they bought them. However, the work does not end up buying containers. The man must do all the work of sorting, cleaning to search for the right owner and interested. Well, it was too much for him and he had therefore decided that if he gets nothing big in this container, he would stop calling.
Bid
Many people have this auction hobbies. Some like to bid on old artifacts and offers on objects considered unwanted many people. Joe had this experience of making money on the junks. He knew what can gain something and what can not.
Standing in the crowd
Joe was not alone who had come to the auction for the container. The auction was going to start since a while and there was already a crowd. He did not know why people are so interesting for storage containers. There were about 15 to 20 people more. All were curious to see what this unit 5 x 15 (75 m²) contained.
So many things
Well, it was impossible for people to see all the items stored in one look. The giant container had the ability to keep a sofa, sports equipment, a business commodity, a bike and a chair with a small set to eat.
Earn it or lose it
The best part of any auction is bidding. It's really fun sometimes. The auction did not have high dramas, pushing, shouting and screaming but a Pacific. Joe wanted to win the bet but at the same time did not want to go too much. He did not want to go beyond the budget.
Be carried away
The container was full of furniture and others. The man was irritated as he wanted to see each of the items but could not like they were all badly packaged. Soon, the auction started. The bid started at $ 100. Well, it was not easy because a woman was constantly supplying the offer.
New heights
No doubt the amount was huge but the container also had a lot. He was not going to give up so early. So he bets again and the woman pushed him a little more. He went. In your opinion, who was going to have the storage container?
Go back to earth
The amount had reached up to $ 350. Neither the woman nor the man appeared to be ready to stop smoking. Before they knew they had touched $ 400 that were followed with $ 450, $ 460, $ 470. In no time, the bet had increased by $ 500. No doubt it was too big and soon the woman retreated. Joe had finally won the bet.
Worthy or not?
Well, he got the unit at $ 500 but was it really that? He was happy and doubtful both. Maybe he had spent too much on the container. Now he had to do at least $ 500. He took the key to the auctioneer and went to the storage unit. The man was congratulated by many people on the way but he was not sure if he had done the right thing.
Buried treasure
Well, the crowd started to disperse. Many of them are gone but some remained to see the new owner enter the room. People standing outside wanted to know what was inside this room. Well, when he opened the door, he could only see junks. There were old furniture, fans and many other things.
Better worth it
Joe entered his new unit 5 x 15 curiosity. The room had scattered furniture everywhere. There was not much space in the room just enough for a person walks. Well, there was nothing meaningful to catch his eyes. Now he started regretting his decision. The old furniture will not cover expenses.
A safe
Joe's eyes attracted the view of a gray container when scanning the room for any good object. The container was maintained next to the dresser. The man wondered what could be inside, he decided to open it. Well, the safe was locked and there was no key. So, how was he going to open it?
Help from a friend
Joe had an idea. He asked one of his friends to come on the spot with an exercise. He planned to drill a hole in the safe. The man had to do it very carefully. Fortunately, he had a practical experience in drilling and stuff.
Broken the lock
Joe put the drill through the lock to open it. After successful, he carefully removed the lid only to be surprised. Joe saw a bunch of old VHS bands. He got up and started going out. It was not this. When it was done with drawing tapes from the box, Joe saw a note.
Mysterious
The note had not written much on it but just a word. He read "not". Once again, Joe crossed the video tapes and spotted written dates on it. Except for that, there was no other information. The sweat pearls broke out on his forehead. Did he landed in a kind of problem? It has been lost in hope when another embodiment has sent a thrill in its spine.
Someone there?
The man had a strange feeling of being watched. He felt like someone standing right behind him. He turned around but a lot to his surprise, there was no one. There was no one else in the storage container other than him. Did he see things?
Investigation
Something was definitely wrong with this storage container. He had managed to find something extraordinary but who was too much for him to manage. Two hours had passed and Joe was always confused and terrified. His anxiety doubled when he saw cops at his door.
What is happening?
Well, it was something he had not waited at all. It was everything to confuse minute per minute. First the safe, cassettes, notes and cops, what was happening?
A boon
After a little more investigation, he found packle of yellow wax paper. There were a lot of packets inside the safe and chose a beginner. He gently fled the package and knocked down to find $ 50 bills. Subsequently, it unpack all the other parcels as to see that they were all full of money.
The proof
Joe recalled that he had shared the pictures of the contents of the security with his girlfriend and his friends on social media. He was not surprising that the police knocked on his door. The man had counted $ 1 million and counting was still on. He went to the officers and spoke to one of them. He then learned that there were more people after the content of the security other than the police.
Dirty money
In total, there were $ 7.5 million hidden in some safes around the containers. They had everything counted with pink slides for cars, nickels and invoices of $ 100. However, big problems were on foot for Joe. The original owner had learned about the results and paid a high level owner to give him his fortune. It's not going to go for Joe.
Questions
In fact, things started getting worse for him. What he thought was a perfect dream turned out to be a nightmare. Joe wondered who would have hidden such a lot in a storage container. Was it a good idea? Why the owner of the money let him be there and especially what was there on the VHS band?
Threats
Well, the arrival of the police accelerated the process. Joe received a call from the lawyers who told him that he will have to return the money and that he can keep $ 600,000 as a discovery fee. Joe had to do something to save himself from disorder.
Groups
The VHS band held Joe's curiosity. It was invited to stay away from the conclusions until the case ends. The man could not keep his curiosity for a long time and decided to open the bands. He struck the plastic bag and chose one and pushed it into an old VCR. Subsequently, he leaned to play.
Nightmaster scenes
What Joe saw on the band was well beyond his imagination. It was full of fear after watching the band. He regrets looking at her now. Since the day he looked at him, Joe kept mom on the band. It seems like that wants to forget that. He even had a lot of nightmares on the tape.
Haunted
The owner had a lot of questions in his head. He wondered if the owner knew about it. If they do then would hunt him? Should not it discuss it with anyone in order to avoid any problem. So, what was there on the bands?
What he discovered
Joe's curiosity had brought him here. The man had ended up finding something he had not hoped at all and had now turned his life completely upside down. The man is silent on the content of the video. He has not spoken yet with anyone yet. In addition, why the band has been maintained inside the safe?
The law of his side
Joe was not going to give up so easily. The man asked his friends a board and learned that the unit formerly sold is no longer a property of the offender tenant. He had the right to keep what he finds in unity with himself.
How is it going?
The owner increased the results fee at $ 1,200,000. Clearly, they wanted conclusions at all costs. They had no idea what they could do. It was difficult to digest that someone had forgot $ 7.5 million in a neglected storage rental.
Return a fortune
Does that mean he would get only 1.2 million? No doubt it was a huge amount but was nothing compared to the amount he had discovered. He wanted to keep it, but at the same time he thought he was challenged by their morality. The money was all his but always, he wondered if kept the money he did not win was just or not.
A fair deal
The man wanted to be fair. He thought of spitting money in the middle. The previous owner had not paid the container for more than two months. They did not even respond to the letters of store owners and that's why the container was for sale at auction.
Become famous
His wife approached the famous Dan Dotson television host and told him the complete scenario. Dan said, "An older Asian woman at the table next to me continues to look at me as if she wanted to tell me something." "Finally, she walked and told me that her husband works with a guy who bought a unit from me for $ 500 and found a safe inside."
Not normal
Dan Dotson, host of "storage wars" explained: "The first person they called to open the safe could not or neither." "They called a second person and when that person opened it ... inside security, they are normally empty, but this time it was not empty. There was $ 7.5 million. (£ 5.8 million) of money inside. "
Agree that
Find a safe with so much money is quite rare. Laura Dotson, "I would feel so worried so. I do not have the impression of clean money." "If they offered me, I would say that I would say so, they washed it, they 'have made clean and I will accept $ 1.2 million. "
Past days
The woman of the Finder said, "They moved away, perhaps a person went to prison. Who knows what it was? "But you know it happens all the time. It's the treasure hunt of the modern day." Really, it was nothing less than a treasure hunt for them, but it was to see S 'They had to keep the money or not.
Cover your losses
"I really do not do a lot of sales money - it's trying to cover our expenses. 90% of the time I do not cover my losses. A unit may have cost $ 600 and the person offers $ 400. My turnover has always suffered a loss, "explained a storage owner. "An unpaid unit does not make money. Earlier the offender tenant can be moved, earlier a paying tenant can move."
Conclusion
Have you ever met a treasure hunt like this? The man who initially suspected he had made a mistake by buying the storage unit that has become the owner of millions of people. Who knew the storage he had bought in $ 500 was going to have a lot of money!
