Ep 8. Cloudy With A Chance Of Profit

In this episode of Storage Wars season 12, titled "Cloudy With A Chance Of Profit," the buyers head to the city of Moreno Valley in Southern California to bid on abandoned storage units.

The first unit up for auction is a small locker filled with boxes and plastic bins. Darrell and Renee are both interested in this unit, but Darrell ultimately wins the bid at $300. Upon closer inspection, Darrell finds some vintage toys and board games, including an old Lionel train set. He also discovers a collection of comic books, but he will need to consult an expert to determine their value.

The second unit is a large one, and it's a bit of a gamble for the buyers. There is a lot of junk in this locker, but there are also a few promising items, including a guitar and a vintage popcorn machine. Dave Hester ends up winning the bid at $450, but he quickly realizes that this unit is going to take a lot of work to sort through.

Meanwhile, Ivy has his eye on a unit filled with high-end furniture and appliances. He thinks that he can make a good profit on these items if he can win the bidding war. However, he faces stiff competition from Mary, who is also interested in this unit. Ivy ultimately wins the auction at $1,800 and is ecstatic about his potential profit.

The next unit up for auction is a small one, and it doesn't look like there is much inside. However, Jarrod and Brandi are intrigued by a large storage bin that is labeled "Beverly Hills, 90210." They end up winning the unit at $250 and are surprised to find that it is filled with costumes and props from the popular 90s TV show. They plan to take these items to a local prop shop to see if they can make a good profit.

The final unit of the day is a large one, and it looks like it could be a goldmine for the buyers. There are several large pieces of furniture and some high-end electronics inside. However, there is also a lot of trash and debris that will need to be cleared out in order to get to the good stuff. Mary ends up winning the bid at $1,500, and she is determined to make a big profit on this unit.

As the buyers sort through their purchases, they each face their own challenges. Darrell discovers that his comic book collection is worth much more than he thought, but he is having trouble finding a buyer. Dave struggles to make sense of the cluttered mess in his unit, but he is determined to find some hidden treasures. Ivy is thrilled with his purchase, but he quickly realizes that some of the furniture is too large to transport. Jarrod and Brandi are excited about their Beverly Hills, 90210 finds, but they worry that the prop shop might not be interested in purchasing these items. And Mary faces a huge challenge as she tries to clear out the junk in her unit and salvage as much valuable merchandise as possible.

Overall, "Cloudy With A Chance Of Profit" is an exciting episode of Storage Wars that highlights the risks and rewards involved in bidding on abandoned storage units.
