WOW I said Storage Wars was Fake

It's a Joke right, how does the auctioneer know ? hmmm I wonder. Legaly they can not step foot into a locket until after the deadline for the original owner or renter of the unit does not pay, which is 1 hour before the sale that day. You could be going to a sale with 20 units and an hour before the sale the owners of those units come in and pay and they are taken off the auction. I have been at sales where the owners themselves bid on their own units trying to get their stuff back cheaper than it would have costed them in rent. Win the unit and find out stuff is missing.

this is so cr*p it cannot be a fake.

and now an actual episode is on. yeah this is staged. very badly staged. this makes the people in Operation Repo seem like good actors.

seems like they wildly exaggerate the worth of most of what they find. like right now he's going on an on about this crappy old original Macintosh desktop and how it's a collector's item worth hundreds of dollars. yeah you can get them on ebay for $30.

I notice that unlike Auction Hunters, they don't bother to see if any of the stuff they get actually works. they fill that time with sudden fist fights and crap instead.

And the last container contained a Tesla electric sports car. Really? How did it get there? Had it been lost? If so, for how long, and how did it manage to hold an electric charge? These cars are famous for getting "bricked" (ruined batteries) if the car stays unplugged too long.
I found a thread on a Tesla board with photographic closeups of parts of the car proving it was in fact the Tesla that Hertz owns and rents on the west coast.

Nice!



I actually noticed something just as suspicious. Did you see how BEFORE the auction nobody could see in to tell what was in the shipping container?

BUT upon the reveal, all there was hiding the car was a false front of a wooden box and the 2 legs that acted as partial sides about 18-24" deep. So how is it nobody could even see the top of the car?

Notice how shiny it was, too? cuz dust doesn't collect in a container?

Good work on the Tesla nonsense. I knew it was staged like everything else on all of the shows, but it's good to have proof of just how outrageously phoney this show gets!
Nothing about this show is real, except perhaps that storage bins do exist and stuff sometimes gets sold off LOL. But everything on this show is fake...actors pretending to bid on storage bins with all details scripted. At least some of the unreality shows are funny and entertaining, but this one is just so God awful stupid it is insulting.
