Unclaimed Baggage...????

http://www.unclaimedbaggage.com/index.html Anyone been here??? what's up with this place?

Seen the website before. I'd love to go and just gawk and point at other peoples stuff

Bob, I have plenty of baggage if you need some.
(P.S. Have seen this place covered on TV a couple of times; it fascinates me!)

Bob,

It is in the news off & on. Maybe a couple years ago, it was featured in a tv program. It's ligit and seems very interesting if you are close enough to take advantage.

Been there, didn't buy a thing. From what I guess, the employees pick over the good stuff when it comes in (just my guess). Everything else gets put on the rack for sale. They have everything from tee shirts to underwear and golf clubs to binoculars. Save yourself a trip and go to your local Goodwill Store. That is much what it feels like, and the selection is maybe one grade higher. If you want a good deal on a particular item like a Mountain Hardwear weather proof coat, wait until one goes on sale at REI or Sierra Trading Post, but don't go to the Unclaimed Baggage store to find it. You will be disappointed.

unclaimed baggage is great for just finding "stuff". we must have been there on a good day, i found a pair of (authentic) chanel sunglasses for $25, that i have since lost.:roll:
it's a place that you have to "dig" through, to find anything useful.

I bet. Just like the gigantic resale shops in Chicago. I've seen some amazing things people have bought for about $20 (Chanel suites, Prada purses) but they said they spent the entire day there, digging thru junk. No thank you.

I've been there but it's been forever. Seagrover just loves that place. :roll:

I have to be in the mood to "dig" instead of shop.

not much digging to be done in that unclaimed shop. All of the clothes are hung and sorted by color, size, and category. most all sport stuff is in it's own section, and the sunglasses, camera, electronics are in a U-shaped counter display, not much different than any retail shop. I'd guess the public area of the shop to be no more than maybe 2000 sf. As I said, just shop at your local goodwill and you will see the same items.

Let me know if anyone finds my lost luggage from Delta

It was a really cool place 8-9 years ago but then I don't know what happened. Last time I went there was 4-5 years ago and I was really disappointed. Maybe it is all the new airline regs.
The first time I went there was tons of hiking/camping gear, sports equipment, cameras and electronics. There were strollers stacked to the ceiling, go figure.

Maybe that's where my limoncello cream that I planned to bring to last year's spring soiree went because it wasn't in my suitcase when I arrived in SoWal - just a note from the transportation authority saying they took out some unlabeled yellow creamy liquid...

Is this what you want us to get you for your birthday?


One of my dearest friends is mayor of Scottsboro, I will call him in the morning and ask him about Unclaimed Baggage.

no, just an alternative to unclaimed baggage.

Wouldn't it be great if the airlines actually had a website where you could claim your own baggage, rather than having someone else buy it?

Yeah. I wonder if people ever go there and find their own stuff and then get upset when they learn they'd have to buy it back

I got a "Return to Tiffany" necklace there - has initials D.D.M.engraved on the back - is this anyone we know? My cousin got the matching braclet.

Their prices used to be much better than they are now. I think they are too high on most things.

Oh, and I did get a pearl bracelet with different gem stones - I seem to like jewelry there, don't I?

And Whitey, I'm going again after my visit to see you, sweet thang!!!!!

Paula, when I saw this site, your limoncello was the first thing that came to mind. I wonder if they auctioned it off like Christi's with a bidding war?

Meet you there!

We'll hook up!!!
