There are a lot of people out there who collect dolls.  I thought dolls were a fad that went out of style years ago.  However, dolls are just as popular a collectors item as they ever have been.  I recently went to a storage auction, where they were auctioning off a climate controlled storage unit .  The unit was stacked to the top with dolls from over the past 45 years, and there were all different types.  The biggest selection was of cabbage patch dolls.  Most of these dolls were still in the packages.  The space went for about 200 USD, which is WAY less than the payout will be on these collectors items.

My aunt has a lot of antiques in her home.  She lives in a small house, so there are few places to put most of her antique furniture.  I told her she should put some of her extra heirlooms in a climate controlled storage space.  Climate control units have about the same temperature year round.  They are about room temperature, meaning they protect things from the elements.  I told her that not only would she have more room, but she would also be able to make sure her things are safe.  She has yet to look into it, though.
