So once insurance companies have paid for lost bags and their contents, and they no longer belong to passengers, a unique store in the little town of Scottsboro, Alabama, buys them.

　　The “Unclaimed Baggage Center” is so popular that the building, which is set up like a department store, is the number-one tourist attraction in all of Alabama. More than one million visitors stop in each year and take one of the store’s shopping carts on a hunt for treasures.

　　The Center displays one-of-a-kind items lost by individual travelers, plus many other items found in goods’ shipments that for some reason never got delivered.

　　Each day, clerks bring out 7, 000 new items, and experienced shoppers rush to paw over them. You can find everything from precious jewels to hockey sticks, best-selling novels, leather jackets, tape recorders, surfboards, even half-used tubes of toothpaste.

　　The store’s own laundry washes or dry cleans all the clothes found in luggage, then sells them. Need a wedding dress? There’s a selection of beautiful lost and unclaimed ones. The store has a little museum where some of its most unusual acquisitions have been preserved.

　　Less than 0. 5% of luggage checked on the U. S. carriers is permanently lost and available to the store. Still, that’s a lot of toothpaste and wedding dresses that never made them home.

　　50. What is implied in the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?
