MIA is selling all that crap people left behind

Remember that Samsonite you left behind at MIA? You can have it back, but it'll cost you.
If you're in the market for electronics, luggage or second-hand clothes, look no further than Miami International Airport.
MIA will be holding an auction Saturday to try to unload all those items travelers have lost while in transit, according to the Miami Herald.
The bidding starts at 9:30 a.m., on the third floor of building 845 at 5600 NW 36th St., and the items will include cameras, DVD players, laptops and just about anything else people left behind before catching a flight out of town.
Considering the number of celebrities that come through the airport, there is no telling what bargains you could syumble onto.
A-Rod's memoirs of his time with Madonna? That VMA that Kanye West didn't win? J-Lo's music career? On second thought, that one is probably somewhere at the bottom of the Atlantic.
It'll cost you $3 just to get in the door, and like most yard sales, it's cash only with no refunds.
If you show up an hour early, you can inspect the wares, but not the luggage.
