Dan Dotson is an American auctioneer who has been in the auctioneering business since 1972. Dan and his wife, Laura Dotson, run American Auctioneers, a full service auction company in Riverside, CA. In December 2010, Dan Dotson began his appearance on A&E's Storage Wars, a real-life television series which follows four professional buyers and their teams as they bid on storage units in default. When rent is not paid on a storage locker for three months in California, the contents are sold by an auctioneer as a single lot of items. The buyers purchase the contents based only on a 5 minute inspection and what they can see from the door when it is opened. The goal is to turn a profit on the merchandise.
