    Basically, was watching a show on A&E I believe it was called “Storage Wars”. Basically, just have a question about if it’s “real or fake” or not? But basically:

    How does the show “Storage Wars” work? It’s a show about people going to “storage auctions” and have bidding wars over “property” that’s in the storage lockers?

    Is it all “predetermined” and “scripted” like WWE and Pro Wrestling? Do the producers choose and select who will win each storage unit in these auctions on TV? Or are the auctions really legit and they’re bidding in real time with their real money?

    That's basically how it works, but it's known that the producers plant objects in the storage units.

    Dave, the "Yup" guy sued the show. In the lawsuit, it was mentioned that items are staged, interviews were scripted, and storylines manipulated.

    Pretty similar to what virtually ALL companies do: twist, distort, manipulate, steal, overcharge, lie, claim all kinds of wonderful things about themselves.
    It's called "GOOD BUSINESS".
