Participant Darrell Sheets from the A&E show “Storage Wars” found an extremely rare item valued at $300,000.
In an episode of the A&E show “Storage Wars,” participant Darrell Sheets, known as “The Gambler,” found one of the rarest items in the history of the reality show, valued at $300,000.
In the show, professional buyers choose storage units that have had overdue rent for more than three months. They only have five minutes to evaluate the unit before deciding to purchase it.
Darrell Sheets, known to viewers as “The Gambler” because of his buying strategies, discovered one of the most valuable items ever found.
In one episode of “Storage Wars,” he bid $4,000 on a storage unit that contained paintings by Mexican artist Frank Gutierrez.
“If this is a real Frank Gutierrez, this piece could be worth thousands. It’s a heart at the top with the arms of a woman holding two babies above blue birds in a nest,” Sheets commented.
After expert evaluation, the paintings were valued at $300,000. In 2012, Sheets mentioned that he met Gutierrez and returned many of his personal items to the artist.
