Wow, what a guy!

Now send a Marine squad to “thank” him for his generosity.

Creep.

Mark Perko of Lake Station said he's been being treated unfairly

No, Perko. You're being treated exactly for what you are; a despicable piece of zhit.

Seems that he turned down an offer of $1,000 dollars, and Bears tix, as not enough. What a Prince.

More here. This reads as though he was still holding out as late as yesterday...

Owns a furniture outlet in Lake Station, yet claims he makes his living by buying overdue storage units. What an entrepreneur he is.

The price has already been paid... many times over.

Perhaps, he has been treated unfairly. It appears he can be shamed into doing what’s right. That’s quite a bit more than has happened to the government of this nation. We elect them, pay them handsomely, let them screw us and to tell us that we can’t even make our own decisions. We keep electing them and bitch at some jerk who takes advantage of the missteps of a family that cared so much about their loved one as to leave her property in an abandoned storage locker.
Yep, Perko is no role model, but as compared to the slime that we continue to elect, he isn’t that bad.

Amazing what peer pressure can accomplish.

Sale of fallen Marine's possessions, medals, burial flag sparks controversy

In Texas, one is not supposed to keep personal items such as bibles, family/personal pictures and that sort of thing when buying a foreclosed storage unit. Trouble is you never know what your gonna find in one of those units.I have had some very pleasing surprises buying out storage units.

“a Marine who died in Pakistan”

I didn’t realize we had officially had combat deaths IN Pakistan.

Two thoughts:

1) the guy is legally right, but morally wrong.
2) I’ll bet he’s “Amish”

At the very least they should pay him what he paid for the storage unit.

These storage units are rented. When someone does not pay, the contents are sold at auction. why didnt the family come and get the stuff out of storage themselves?

Why did they wait for some one else to buy it, then bad mouth the poor guy who bought it? Now they get the stuff for free, and he is out money.

This man paid for ths contents at auction so he is out money. Why should he suffer a loss? Good on him for giving it to them.

The family should have offered to pay him what he paid at auction, at very least, for their son’s property. THAT would have been fair.

He did nothing wrong, and he is out $$$, and made to look like a bad guy.

The family should have just paid him and shut up and stop badmouthing him. They are low class for demanding it for free.

he would take a loss and give the items to Winters' brother.

Thats mighty big of him. /s
Does this prick think that this stuff has a lot of money value? The flag is worth a few bucks on the market, but ribbons and dog tags? How much was he going to sell that for? Money money money, this Marine died so that he can earn his money. He just doesn't get it. Tag him and turn him loose in the middle of a bunch of FReepers.
