I cannot believe how stupid some people are. They buy some really cool stuff and pay little vs worth. I would think these people have the internet and have heard of e-bay or Craigs list~

More of a young Chris Collinsworth. That's nearly as bad.

Brian Regan has a funny as hell skit about the people on those antique shows. If I could find a video for it, I'd share it. I know it's from his DVD Brian Regan Standing Up

It's a good show. A lot of shows on that channel are good.

The guy with the Iwo Jima landing maps from his dad; sells it for $2500 to help with his daughters wedding? He must really hate his dad and love his soon to be son in law, I know I would have those framed and hanging somewhere.

I'm thinking they have it set so that if your item is appraised and they make an offer on it you have to sell it to them?

RICK “The Spotter”After 28 years in the business, Rick Harrison is an expert when it comes to spotting anything fake or stolen. As far as big-ticket items, Rick is the man for the job. Spotting a fake Cartier watch that most people would mistakenly purchase for $30,000 is just one of his many skills. Often acting as the middleman between his father and his son, Rick is the glue that holds this family and business together. Trained in the pawn business from the age of 13, Rick was born a hustler. He even dropped out of high school to pursue his $2,000-a-week business of selling fake Gucci bags. With enough money to partner with his father at the age of 23, he never looked back.

He seems like a sharp guy and as I said appears to brains of the operation. If the old man ran the place I think it it would be the standard low rent joint that got by on desperate people hocking belongs and missing payments. Someone said the son is pretty sharp but strikes me as a tub of worthless~

True but he is on enough that you would think it would show if he had anything to offer less being a dump. Taking a guess the old man was a hard ass small time hustler and Rick had to earn his way up. He son appears to be the product of a wealthy father who handed everything to him~
