But while digging, I receive the owner's request to get her stuff back... what should I do?

    I'm glad you gave the family their pictures back because they're only priceless to the family! The other stuff, you paid for it, and it now belongs to you. I can't wait to see what's in the other trunks! 😊

    I think you’re doing it right Jack , their photos etc of valuable to them and some people don’t even give those back. You paid a lot of money for this, used a lot of your time, energy n gas etc you have to make a living. If she can pay for the furniture n box etc why couldn’t she pay up the locker.? It’s right also to be detatched from the seller. Once you’ve paid its all your property fair n square. You are honorable and do so much for others especially at Stockton, such low prices , literally giving away at the end. Rest assured you’re fine. 👏👏👍🏻👍🏻😍

    I KNOW that the kind thing to do is to think about it, but they had time to claim it. That's the name of the game. I'd give back personal pictures, remains of loved ones, but to want all the things back they shouldn't be allowed to just come back and want it back!

    I don't know her story and I know you bought this locker fair and square but I gotta say, I didn't enjoy this one at all. Everything you looked at, I kept wondering if she was watching and crying. Esp. when you said "it's junk or it's garbage" and threw it away. The ashes, I hope you gave those back. Both of them. Just got a sad feeling off this and I usually don't.

Your doing the right thing, keep it between her and the unit owners! You have to protect yourself and your family❤some buyers wouldnt even give her the personal stuff so she should think herself lucky! Plus your giving it back free! Hoping for more treasures in the last of the stuff! Take care of yourself blessings from this Scottish Locker Nut 🎉❤x

Sometimes you’ll find it in a hidden theme somewhere on inside newer Gucci. You’ll find it right up towards the top lip but you might find the serial number either like in a pocket or something like that so do look for a metal tag. Kind of feel your way around for something metal try not to cut it if you can get the serial number but you might have to.

    Have the owners ever contacted you after watching the video? I understand not wanting to meet Jack. Safety is a real concern these days. I wonder why she allowed it to go to auction if she wanted the items so badly.Must be on hard times. It was generous of you to return the personal items. I know it's a difficult line to walk but you have always been more than fair. She could always go to the flea market or whatnot if there's something she really wants back.

      Even if they did watch the video, I think a lot of times stuff is already sold by the time the video comes out. Fast paced business.
