The venue for this auction of customs confiscated items was a huge warehouse.
Fortunately, there is central air conditioning in the warehouse, so the conditions are okay.
In this warehouse, there are rows of shelves, and each shelf is filled with a variety of goods.
Needless to say, all of this cargo was confiscated by customs at Los Angeles Airport.
As soon as they entered the venue, Xiao Ran and Elaine were shocked by the scene in front of them.
"Wow! There are so many auction items today. It only takes one hour to visit. I'm afraid I won't be able to see them all."
Elaine said in amazement.
Xiao Ran nodded.
"This auction of items confiscated by customs is an auction with no reserve price."
"That is to say, the starting price of all items is zero, so it has attracted so many professional treasure hunters and treasure hunting enthusiasts to participate."
"Because the reserve price is zero and there are many goods to be auctioned, the auctioneer will not leave too much time for everyone to visit and evaluate."
"Many bidders do not evaluate carefully, especially those treasure hunting enthusiasts, who come here with the mentality of picking up bargains."
"They often only pay a small amount of money to see if they can take pictures of what they like. As long as they take pictures, they make money."
While introducing the situation, Xiao Ran also took Elaine to the nearest shelf.
The visit lasts only one hour, so you must seize the time to visit and evaluate!
Xiao Ran was going to take a quick tour of all the lots, and then go down to participate in the bidding.
In fact, as soon as he entered the warehouse, he had a clear goal.
Among the numerous auction items, he spotted several treasures radiating different colors and lights at a glance.
Those treasures are his target and must be captured.
As for other things in the warehouse, it depends on whether they have value.
If you come across something good, you can take action.
When Xiao Ran and the others were visiting, there were seven or eight pairs of eyes staring at them, staring at Xiao Ran's every move.
These guys include both professional treasure hunters and ordinary treasure hunting enthusiasts.
Without exception, they all wanted to see what Xiao Ran was interested in, and then try to stop him halfway.
Once you get it, you might be able to catch a big leak and become rich overnight!
Xiao Ran has long been used to this kind of situation and is no longer surprised.
In the previous auctions, people were always watching him closely, trying to make a big fortune.
In the end, no one succeeded, but many people were tricked by him and were about to cry without tears.
While Xiao Ran and the others were visiting, the live broadcast room was also very lively.
Seeing that there were so many lots at the auction, everyone was shocked.
"Wow! How many things have been confiscated by the Los Angeles Airport Customs? It's all piled up in this huge warehouse."
"It seems that if we go to the United States in the future, we must go there naked, otherwise, everything we bring may be confiscated by customs."
Yanzi said with emotion.
As a result, before he finished speaking, there was a commotion.
"Beauty, when are you going to go to the United States naked, let me know in the live broadcast room that my buddy is on the same flight as you. How can you miss such beautiful scenery?"
"Count me in, beauty. I will accompany you to the United States naked, go through customs together, and protect your safety."
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter in the live broadcast room, and everyone laughed.
Yan Zi laughed and cursed angrily:
"You bunch of old perverts, go ahead and have your sweet dreams! There's everything in your dreams."
After some joking, everyone returned to the topic.
"Xiao Ran, you just said that all the auction items here have no reserve price. What's going on?"
"Since it is an item confiscated by airport customs, there must be many good things. Why is the starting price zero? Is it too low?"
Time Record Xixu asked curiously.
Not only him, but others were also a little confused.
Xiao Ran smiled softly and then explained:
“The reason why the lots at the Customs Confiscated Items Auction all have zero reserve prices is actually very simple.”
"For travelers whose items have been confiscated, these items may be beloved items that are of great value or have special meaning."
"But for the airport customs, these things are free, there is no cost, and you can make money no matter how much you sell."
"In order to ensure that the auction can be completed and the auction proceeds are sufficient to cover the auction fees and venue fees, a zero starting price was set."
"This kind of auction will start on time regardless of the number of participants, even if there is only one buyer participating in the auction."
"In case of delay, bidders have the right to sue the auction organizer."
"This has resulted in some treasure hunters choosing bad weather with strong winds and heavy rain to participate in the auction of confiscated items and pick up bargains at almost zero cost."
At this point, there was another exclamation in the live broadcast room.
"I'll go! It's a good thing. If I catch such an opportunity, wouldn't I make a lot of money?"
"Brother, if you go to the United States in the future, if you encounter this kind of opportunity, you must try it. Maybe you can buy a warehouse treasure for ten dollars!"
The lost youth said excitedly.
As a result, before he finished speaking, there was a lot of complaints.
"You want to eat shit! There are probably countless treasure hunters who think like you. How can there be so many advantages to take advantage of!"
"That's right, maybe the auction of confiscated items held under bad weather will attract more buyers. After all, everyone wants to get a bargain!"
Xiao Ran nodded and then continued:
"Now that information is so developed and information spreads so fast, it is no longer so easy to find an advantage."
"Besides, not everyone is qualified to participate in the confiscated items auction."
"You must be registered with the auction association and pay the membership fee to obtain membership before you can participate in this kind of auction."
While he was talking, he and Elaine had already arrived at the first shelf and began to look at the things on the shelf.
At the front of this shelf, there are a large number of cosmetics.
Some have been opened and used, while others have not yet been opened and are brand new goods.
These cosmetics are here because many travelers don’t understand the various restrictions on carrying cosmetics on airplanes.
When they arrived at the airport with their cosmetics and prepared to board the plane, except for a few items, all the cosmetics were confiscated by customs.
That’s why these cosmetics are included in this auction.
The cosmetics on the shelves include many luxury brands, and many of them have not yet been opened.
For example, Dior's perfume, Lancôme's face cream, etc.
Seeing those unopened top-quality cosmetics, the female fans in the live broadcast room immediately became excited.
"Wow! That's Switzerland's LeBronie Platinum Cream. 50 ml is worth more than 10,000 yuan!"
"And this is a complete set, not opened yet, so rare."
"Xiao Ran, I must help my sister take a picture later. This treasure is almost unavailable in China now."
Sister Min said excitedly.
Before she finished speaking, Xiao Ran poured a basin of cold water on her.
"Sister Min, don't even think about this set of Lai Boni's Platinum Cream, just take a look!"
"The current situation is that such items cannot be sent back to the country at all."
"Ouch! How could I forget this?"
Sister Min lamented, her tone full of disappointment.
The rest of the female fans were the same, all of them lamented.
Elaine, who was standing next to Xiao Ran, had eyes shining with excitement.
"This set of LaBonnie's Platinum Cream is authentic and brand new and unopened. I will take a photo of this set of cream later."
“It’s almost impossible to buy this cream in Los Angeles. Yufei and I went to the store on Rodeo Street to check it out, and the queue was already months later.”
Before he finished speaking, Fang Yufei suddenly came out.
"Xiao Ran, tell Elaine that you will share half of this set of Platinum Cream with me."
“Such a good thing must be shared by everyone, not just one person.”
"Okay, since you like it, then I will take a picture of this set of Platinum Cream. You can discuss it yourself on how to distribute it."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
Hearing this, the female fans in the live broadcast room were immediately jealous and screamed.
"It's not fair. Such a good baby, but we can't reach it. We can only look at it and covet it!"
“That’s right, Elaine and the big girl from Beijing were able to pick up such a set of top-notch facial creams for free.”
Xiao Ran smiled and then responded:
"There's nothing I can do about it, it's just the environment!"
With that said, he walked forward and continued to visit the items on the shelves.
After taking a few steps forward, he suddenly let out a whoosh and stopped.
At the same time, there were also surprised exclamations in the live broadcast room.
"I didn't expect there was such a treasure, Xiao Ran, you just copied it!"
