So when he buys a junk locker and there is nothing in it, then all of the sudden he has boxes of newspapers that an 'expert' says are worth $20,000 that makes him a genuis and shrewd businessman? I'm pretty sure all geniuses and shrewd businessmen would disagree with you.

Taking the producers to court means he seriously cares about his 'trade' (and I use the term loosely). Come on, all the guy cares about is money and that is the only reason he is suing them.

Best guy on the show? Right, that must be why you have a Barry avatar.
Who pissed in your cornflakes this morning?

Dave appeared to know more about obscure items or things than the others, and always wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty and let the little things add up. I remember one episode where everyone passed up a locker full of books; Dave made thousands in profit taking those books whereas the others wouldn't touch them.

Dave knows how to work the business and that's why he clearly has the most well-run business among all the competitors. You can't possibly argue against that.

And yes, Dave's lawsuit likely stems from protecting his industry. On multiple shows he has said he was born into this trade and it means everything to him. So unless the producers forced him to say that, I can't see why he would lie.

I have a Barry avatar because he's the funniest of the group and most people would agree. But nice attempt at grasping straws there, chief.
