Auction Hunters follows two storage unit buyers from southern California. Allen Haff, a second generation antiques dealer, and Clinton "Ton" Jones, a Jack-of-All-Trades and gun and safe expert travel to storage unit auctions in Southern California and occasionally, other parts of the United States. Once the units are bought, they then attempt to sell the contents, appraising the bigger finds and often making deals with the appraisers. As the Opening Narration explains, only units with the rarest and most valuable finds are shown on air.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Currently, Auction Hunters is shown on Spike TV. | |

Batman Gambit: Ton and Allen will sometimes trick the other bidders into thinking that they've given up on a locker only to turn around and hit them with a Whammy Bid. A few times, Allen and Ton have bid on a unit they weren't really interested in, in order to run up the price, or to bait a person into bidding (more) on a less-than-promising room. They call this "dropping the room" on a buyer. It can backfire, of course, if the buyer doesn't bite—and at least one opponent (Carolyn) folded 'em, leaving Ton and Allen holding the bag. One episode featured a competitor who loved mind games. Allen distracted the competitor by engaging in trash-talk with him... while Ton proceeded to bid on the room. The distraction worked; the competitor, busy playing his mind-games with Allen, never got a bid in, and Ton won the room for a relatively low price.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |
