Baggage Battles

This show is so horrible, I just watched an episode in witch these two old hippies found a stack of record albums and took them to some so called "expert" and this idiot told them that a kiss record that sells for about ten bucks was worth a hundred and a" Meet the Beatles" album was worth 2,200 dollars , this idiot did not even take the record out of the jacket to see what pressing it might have been let alone the condition, first pressings book high but not over $700 and you would be lucky to get $200 if Mint, later pressings can be as low as $15 bucks if they were produced in the late 70's or 80's.......Thanks to these stupid shows ,everybody and their grandmother thinks that every little thing in their closet or attic is worth a million bucks, in a nut shell this show Sucks !

The original premise of this series was intriguing: go to auctions where lost "baggage" (also known as suitcases and items shipped by plane or ship) were auctioned off. The person bidding could not see the contents at all. No opening of baggage, boxes, etc was allowed.

Apparently, this wasn't enough for the producers so they started sending the cast to "regular" auctions where the items were known, the cast members could research values, etc. The sense of mystery evaporated. And at that point, so did my interest. The only way I would watch this again is if the show returned to its original premise. Otherwise, I could go to my own local auction and entertain myself.

This truly is awful. The premise is three teams 'battle' each other to bid at auction on sealed boxes. Then they open the boxes to see what 'treasure' they find. Then 'treasure' is taken to 'expert' for them to value.

This seems, to me, to be set up. For example, one of the battlers opens a box full of junk hats, but guess what? in the bottom is an astronauts helmet with blue prints for a Skylab item tucked inside! How did whoever put random hats into the box miss this! There are numerous other occurrences in other boxes, but i got bored after watching 3 episodes of this.

The show is very contrived, where is the battle? it would be more interesting if the participants had to actually fight with whatever 'treasure' they found

Larry the star? Of this show is a unkept looking bumb that only a mother or in this case his costar wife could love. I, m turning it off can't stand the sight of this joker by
