Ep 1. Miami Heat

In the first episode of season 2 of Auction Hunters, titled Miami Heat, Allen Haff and Ton Jones travel to the sunny city of Miami, Florida to explore a storage unit auction. As they arrive at the auction, they notice that there are many experienced bidders in attendance, making the competition fierce and the prices high.

One of the first units up for bid catches their eye with a neon sign that reads "Bar Open." Allen and Ton decide to bid and end up winning the unit for $3,000. Upon opening it, they discover a variety of items including a vintage jukebox, a large collection of Mardi Gras beads, a vintage Coke machine, and a gambling machine.

After inspecting the jukebox, they realize that it's from the 1950s and could be worth a lot of money. They decide to take it to a vintage jukebox expert to get it appraised. The expert is impressed by the condition of the jukebox and offers them $4,000 for it. However, Allen and Ton decide to hold onto it and try to sell it for more money.

Next up is a unit that catches Ton's attention because it has a lot of boxes labeled "fragile." Despite the competition, Ton manages to win the unit for $2,000. Inside the boxes, they find a large collection of antique glassware, including crystal vases and figurines.

Allen and Ton decide to take the glassware to an antiques expert to get it appraised. While the expert is impressed with their collection, he informs them that the market for antique glassware is not strong and offers them $1,500 for the entire collection. They decide to hold onto it in the hopes of finding a buyer who is willing to pay more.

The final unit up for bid is a large locker filled with various items including exercise equipment, furniture, and a large collection of bicycles. Allen and Ton are hesitant to bid on this unit, as they are not experts in bicycles. However, they notice that one of the bikes is a vintage Schwinn Stingray, which could be worth a lot of money.

They end up buying the locker for $3,500 and take the bicycles to a bike expert to get them appraised. The expert is impressed with the condition of the Schwinn Stingray and offers them $2,500 for it. Despite the offer, Allen and Ton decide to hold onto it and try to sell it for more money.

Throughout the episode, Allen and Ton encounter various setbacks, including a broken down truck and a last-minute hurricane warning, but they persevere and manage to sell some of their items for a profit. In the end, they head back home to Los Angeles with some valuable items and a newfound respect for the unpredictable world of auctions.
