- There you go.
What do say?
How about $100?
20 bucks.
800, [inaudible] 25, 35.
Come on, sweet cheeks.
20 bucks.
Now 30.
Can I get 30.
Come on.
30, can I get 50?
I got 25, and 35. 50.
[inaudible] and 50.
50 bucks.
Now 60.
And 50 and 75.
Sell it.
Sold it to you, $50, Darrell.
First unit of the day, $50.
Dominating.
What'd you call me?
Sweet Cheeks?
DARRELL: Sweet Cheeks.
Better watch your tone.
Might not take your bid next time.
Here's something really cool right here, a nice Samsung TV.
I'll get about a buck and a half for that.
Three times my money.
That's called dominating.
Look at this.
Brand new set of binocs.
Not even out of the wrapper.
That's 30 bucks.
Right there.
Cool hat.
It's like written in Russian, I think.
$10.
Here, we've got a broken thing, this.
What the heck?
Hmm.
A very interesting-- every once in a while
I'll find something in this locker
that I don't know what it is, but this is some type of vise.
Because of the green and everything like that,
it might be something to do with military.
But it does measure increments of something.
I might have to set this thing aside.
Oh, wow.
That's a cool box.
See how it's all hand tooled and everything?
Oh, yeah.
If I'm right, this is a Russian hat.
Real mink on it.
It just does not fit.
[spring sound]
But I'm telling you right now, this is going
in the get-checked-out pile.
I'm going to go get my truck.
I'm going to take my hat stuff.
Denomination.
This is it right here.
I'm here at Louise Green's mil-million-millinaire--
Louise?
LOUISE GREEN: Hello.
Milliner hat lady.
What's a milliner?
A milliner is a ladies' hat maker.
A ladies' hat maker?
Right.
And the men's maker is called a hatter.
A hatter.
Say you have a nice little hat stretcher here.
Huh.
And we use them all the time.
You can see, we have quite a few of them.
So yours is a little bit different
because, as you can see, my metal one, it's electric,
and it heats up like an iron.
Uh-huh.
And we switch it on, and heat it up.
And then we stretch the hat to the size of the customer.
But this one, because you don't have a heating element in this,
it's not going to work, like, right away.
You would have to leave it on here
overnight, whereas this one could
stretch within five minutes.
So really, what do you think that this hat
stretcher is worth?
Well, I think it's actually a really nice design.
It was made in New York.
It's better for me, being a milliner.
A milliner.
A milliner is a ladies' hat maker.
Right.
But I think you could probably get up to--
[drum roll]
400, 450 to the right buyer.
Really?
Hats off to the dominatrix.
[whipping sound]
So you know, Louise, since you're a milliner, maybe you
know a little bit about these.
Oh, this is a shtreimel.
A shtreimel?
It is worn by a sect of Orthodox Judaism.
I have no idea how much these things go for,
but I could put you in contact with a Haredi man.
Nice.
Oh, wow. Look at this.
DARRELL: Right?
I hope you didn't take it out of the box yet.
You know, I don't think I did.
I'm bringing my hat to [inaudible]
to learn just a little bit more about it.
Most shtreimels have fox tail fur.
And it takes about 30 foxes to make a shtreimel.
There we go.
Who in the heck would wear this thing?
Literally, probably a million people.
Wow.
The origin of the shtreimel comes from back in the day,
they made the Jews wear fox tails just
to kind of intimidate them.
And the Jews decided let's embrace
it, and make it into a fashion thing, something of royalty.
Wow.
A lot of feeling in that hat.
Yes.
And it's all about connecting to the past.
And that's why we still wear the garb from the old country.
I appreciate your history lesson and everything,
but can you tell me what is this hat worth?
So I would put it at about--
[drum roll]
--$4,000.
$4,000 for that hat?
Yeah.
It is a prestigious shtreimel.
Can you say, you've got to be [bleep] me in here?
Or is that?
Well, the door to the Torah is closed.
So--
