An auction in Los Angeles brings more buyers than Dan and Laura bargained for. Dave Hester returns to the auctions despite his troublesome past. Ivy tries to keep the peace, but gets dragged into an abnormal auction while Rene brings some help as his father,balloonter, joins the action. Mary is attracted to more than just good finds as the bids and the sparks fly.
"Storage Wars" which follows four professional buyers and their teams as they scour repossessed storage units in search of hidden treasure. Part gamblers, part detectives, these auction pros have found everything from coffins to the world's most valuable comic book collection, paying as little as ten dollars for items valued in the millions.
Each episode of "Storage Wars" follows a group of bidders as they get a quick peek inside the units, aided only by the beam of a flashlight. They then must assess on the spot if the unit is worth a bid and how high they will actually go to grasp the gold. The high-stakes fun begins as we see if the resulting buy is full of mostly trash... or true treasure. Driven by Dan Dotson, one of the most successful and outrageous auctioneers in the country, the cast of buyers is as colorful and varied as the treasures they uncover.
