DESCRIPTION
The passion that John and Jimmy DiResta developed for scouring flea markets -- their dad was known as the ``Lord of the Fleas'' -- as young kids growing up on Long Island has turned into a way of life. They now operate a successful family business, using New York as their treasure map to pick up used or discarded items, which they reinvent and then sell for a profit. From diving in dumpsters and dealing with collectors to shopping at flea markets and antique shops, the DiRestas, along with John's son Matthew, are relentless in their quest to turn garbage into gold. Their mantra: ``Find it, fix it, sell it!'' The DiResta brothers previously starred in the HGTV series ``Hammered With John and Jimmy DiResta.''
