Barry Weiss              

Star of "Barry'd Treasure" & Personality on A&E's "Storage Wars"

Since the age of 15, Barry Weiss has made a name for himself as an antique collector.

Weiss and his brother owned a successful produce company, until he retired. While Weiss is a lifelong antiques collector, he had never bought a storage unit until his friend and Storage Wars executive producer and narrator Thom Beers suggested he join the show. Barry is the best financed of the group and by his own admission is the only one not in it for financial profit but to find interesting single items. He is interested in finding collectibles.

He is known for the unusual tactics he brings to the auctions, such as bringing in psychics to help him figure out a locker's contents, odd disguises and outfits he sometimes wears, attaching a camera to a remote control helicopter to look inside a locker, and bringing in a pair of fake German attorneys to distract the other buyers.

In February 2014, A&E announced Barry's own show to be titled Barry'd Treasure to premiere March 18.
