        I wonder if Cage will reward the guy who shelled out for the storage locker contents.

            I think Dan Dotson is the auctioneer on storage wars so I wonder if it was one of their show aucitons and will there be a future epsidoe where Barry or Darly gets it

              I remember when he sold off his collection in 2002 when he got married to Lisa Marie Presley.

              An older comic collector friend of mine said "that's what happens - when collectors get married they sell off their collections for the extra cash". A few of my friends argued with him for a while asking "How can Nicholas Cage need cash?" and they argued about how much money he made. My older more experienced friend just said having assets has nothing to do with having money.

              I remembered all this recently when Nicholas Cage filed for bankruptcy. Not so much because I care about Nicholas Cage that much - but because I took that all as a little lesson about how appearing to be rich and having money are two different things.

                i think i'd put stolen in quotes, something is awful fishy if he manages to get it back, he's broke now.

                  i doubt he's still broke, he's made a few movies since then , and most of his movies do well

                      Can't really be that broke...He is a Coppola.
                      "When not too many people can see we're all the same
                      And because of all their tears,
                      Their eyes can't hope to see
                      The beauty that surrounds them
                      Isn't it a pity".

                        I read in another article that he received a big cash settlement from his insurance company for this book. He will have that little issue to take care of if he decides to keep it once he gets it back.
