@user-nd4ek7ed4p Ай бұрын

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 agree with you on NOT meeting them in person. Too many things to go wrong. You have to watch your back when doing this. Some one might go crazy on ya!

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.

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 agree, I wouldn't want to meet the previous owners either. Number one, like you said for security reasons, but also because I wouldn't want to see their faces, or if they start crying or even begging. You don't need that. This is your income and it needs to stay professional, never personal. I couldn't agree more! Be safe, be careful!

Thats a lot of work you've done so far, in that locker! It's a business transaction at the end of the day Jack. If she wanted her stuff back so badly then why allow yourself to lose the locker! She knew where it was, and how much she should be paying! 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

Gucci is the namebrand will have a serial number in there for real the older Gucci purses. It’s hard to find the serial number. 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.

I think you are wise not to sell peoples old stuff back to them. Who knows where that could end? They could end up asking for nearly everything and that would just be a mess. Also, you’re right, there could be some safety issues in that. People can get very emotional and weird about their possessions.
