Rene and Casey have been married for 16 years and are the owners of a 7,000 square foot shop called Bargainn Hunters Thrift Store in San Diego, California.

One of the first things people notice about Rene is his German accent, but the second is his buying prowess. With a big bankroll and an extensive knowledge of secondhand sales, Rene is a veteran buyer who doesn’t back down for anyone. Rene’s been buying and selling storage units since the age of 11 but when he’s not at the storage lockers, Rene loves to play poker.

Casey often accompanies Rene to auctions, and is very supportive of his decisions… until he says that she can’t keep the jewelry they find, that is. Casey is always pushing Rene to focus on selling and together they make a great team where family is the most important thing in their business!
