No im not joking. i really think he makes the show very interesting and he intimidates a lot of other people because of the way he comes out. He's not scared and when he wants something he gets it- like he said on the show! GO MARK!!!!

Do you know him personally? Do you know for a fact that he has accomplished all that? IMO if he were secure in all of his many accomplishments he would not have to try so hard to "showboat" as he does. A truly confident and secure person does not feel the desire to impress people. Let me just say that I have been more blessed than most and I regularly walk around in a t-shirt and jeans. I drive around a 2005 Mazda Miata just because I really like it and couldnt give one crap less if people think Im poor or not! While I do understand that it may all be just for entertainment purposes, people such as Mark do not entertain me. So I will not watch if he continues to be on. =)

Mark is definitely making the show more entertaining. I would love to see him on every show. Acutally he makes me weak with a strong desire to talk to him personally. I bet he's really a remarkable guy with some incredible stories. No more hating and let's keep Mark aboard!

I don't care what any of y'all haters say - I LOVE MARK. He is absolutely hilarious. What's even more hilarious is everyone's reaction to him and everything he does. He needs to stay.

kk, time to get in on this convo.  I agree, and disagree with bits and pieces as they fall here.  Mark "can be" good for the show.  He has the $$$ obviously, and he can actually give "the mogul" a bit of competition.  Darrell talks big about assets, but I don't believe he has the dough to compete with Dave honestly.  Mark does need to show a little more character, he did come off as a bit boring personality wise for television.  My main gripe with Mark is, on the episode he got torched over the Nintendo, he almost looked like he wanted to cry.  Not saying that jokingly either, he really looked like he was fighting from busting into tears or something.  If he can manage his T.V. personality a bit better, he can actually be good for the show.  Until then though, he does not belong with this awesome grouping of characters.  I personally am a Barry Weiss supporter, but in this matter, I show no bias.  Cheers.

Until recently, I was buying over 100 storage units in average per week. That is more than all the cast from Storage Wars buys it combined. I have several warehouses that we process and sell all the merchandise from. I work everyday extremely hard to support my family and the families of my employees. I lead by example and there is nothing I will ask someone to do for me that I wouldn't do it myself. If anyone has any questions to ask me feel free to email me at mark@balelo.com

He actually knows his stuff. Dave thinks he knows but he is always calling people to have them google info for him. Show up with a cell phone blocker and his game is done. He will yuuuuup his way into bankruptcy. The fact Dave has the cops investigating him tells a lot about his character. Dave's strategy is simply to throw money at it just like Mark's. Darrell actually uses strategy perfect example was the episode he acted like he was going to dump a bin on dave then at the last second bid and won it. Dave also thinks he has thick skin and can't be intimidated but he ran off crying from psychics ( probably afraid they would find out what the cops are ) and then cried when people called his store out for ripping people off. Brandi is another one of the smart ones. If Brandi, Darrell, and Barry got together to work against Dave he would bid himself into bankruptcy.

I see that alot of people are talking about me. Some good and some bad. That is what TV does.... For those who are talking bad about me apparentely does not know me in person. Feel free to ask me any questions via email at mark@balelo.com I thank everyone who has taken the time aside to support me.
