Our Gadget Warehouse Video Submission email this week is from Richard Vega. He writes:
Here’s another video, this one from our Grandson Marc. He’s gone from sky to the director & narrator.
The Treasure X Gold Dissection kits are all the rage for his age group. (5+)
It was a twenty minute project, so I edited the video as best I could.

Submit Your Gadget Warehouse Video & Win An Autographed MAD Magazine.
We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show!
1. Video can be ANYTHING about a gadget: I bought a piece of crap. I bought a gadget I love. I have an old gadget I can’t part with because it was ‘high tech’ years ago! Even a ‘What The Heck Is It? Gadget.
2. Videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long in Horizontal Format! Low production value is fine, but we need to hear you and see your gadget clearly! You can be in the video if you like.
3. Post your Video on YouTube and click ‘unlisted’ when you upload it if you want, but not “Private” or we won’t be able to see it. Send us the URL link from YouTube.
4. If we show your video (and we show 99% of them) and live in the US or Canada you’ll also get an autographed current issue of MAD.) But no matter where you live outside of the US & Canada, I’ll autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo to you, scan it & email you a high res image. Just print it out, frame it, or just hang it up and no one will know it’s a copy. We’ve tested it out and fans say they look terrific!
All show submissions go to mail@gizwiz.tv

Letter of the week from Steve C who writes:
Hi Dickie De and Chad,
You guys use Amazon a lot to order stuff and compare prices but have you heard of Nellis Auctions where they auction off all the stuff that’s returned due to the goons at UPS smashing it up, it was ordered by mistake or not wanted or they used it until they got tired and sent it back? Nellis is a HUGE operation based in Nevada with 2 warehouses in the Las Vegas area, 1 in Texas and 2 here in Phoenix that are at least 1/4 mile long! They auction about 15,000 different items EVERY DAY!
You can find everything under the sun on there such as fridges, washers and dryers, home grown mushroom kits, solar panels (UPS really loves to smash up solar panels but sometimes one makes it through with just a few dents), computers, furniture, dog toys, scooters, car parts and just about anything Amazon sells! Items generally sell for 1/3 to 1/2 of the regular price but everything starts at $1 so sometimes you can get an item for $1 or just 1/10 of the regular price. I recently picked up a nice Dell laptop for $43, a Lenovo desktop for $31 and a new set of seat covers for the car for $11!
They have photos of the items but it’s still difficult to tell what the condition is like sometimes until you get the box and open it up. In a way it’s like Storage Wars when they are bidding on a room full of cardboard boxes then have to open them up to see what they got!
They do let you return items though, within reason, or cancel something that was bought by mistake, then you have a week to pick up purchases or they will be relisted for the next auction since they don’t deliver.
I don’t know if there is anything similar back East but I suspect there must be.
Amazon just built another HUGH warehouse here just a few miles down the road from me so I suspect there will be more than 15,000 items up for bid pretty soon!
