- How in the hell did you get this through my door?
Whoa.
That is amazing.
These can go for a lot of money.
I own a really expensive book.
I would have sold it for less than $50,000.
COREY: What do we have here, and how in the hell
did you get this through my door?
Very carefully.
I came down to the pawn shop today
to sell my pinball machine.
It's a 1972 Williams Line Drive Baseball pinball machine.
I used to be a pinball wizard.
But I'm just too old now.
This is a rare find.
The big feature on it is it's got this animated back glass
where the players--
as you score runs, they will actually physically get
up and run around the bases.
OK.
These old pinball machines are really cool,
and the market's pretty good for them.
If I can get this for the right price,
I should have no problem selling it.
What are you looking to get out of it?
$5,500.
COREY: $5,500?
That's a good deal based on this condition.
I just kind of feel like that's probably
what I'll get out of it.
I'm gonna have to resell it.
I gotta make money.
I'll-- I'll do $3,500.
What would you say the $4,000?
$3,750.
You got a deal. COREY: Deal?
All right. Cool.
Thank you, sir.
I paid $800 for it.
I'm thrilled with $3,750.
RICK: Hey.
How can I help you?
SEAN: Coming here to sell a couple
of my Norman Rockwell prints.
"The Little Spooners."
RICK: This one's definitely cool.
SEAN: I came down to the pawn shop
today to sell my Norman Rockwell lithographs.
The least I would take would be probably $5,000 apiece.
The other print we have is "Dressing Up."
And there was only 60 of these made.
RICK: I mean, this is really neat.
These can go for a lot of money.
When people mention American artists,
one of the very first people they think of
is Norman Rockwell.
No one expressed American culture like him.
Now, the big question is how much do you want for these?
$8,000 apiece.
All right.
Let me get someone down here to take a look at them.
I just need his advice, all right?
SEAN: Sounds good.
Pretty cool.
What do you think?
BRETT MALY: Yeah, this is fantastic.
This is actually one of Norman Rockwell's
quintessential images.
I mean, you see this one on everything
from calendars to mouse pads.
And this work was a cover of the "Saturday Evening Post."
It's one that he's really renowned for.
RICK: So the big thing-- what do you think they're worth?
BRETT MALY: "Dressing Up" is not going to have the value
of "The Little Spooners."
I can't see a value on this more than about $1,000, $1,500.
"The Little Spooners"-- this one I could see
in the $8,000, $9,000 range.
RICK: OK.
So what's your best price on them?
I think I'd like to hang on to "Dressing Up."
"The Little Spooners"-- how about $8,000?
I'd give you, like, $4,500 for it.
How about $7,000?
I'll tell you what, I'll go $4,800.
Could you go $5,500?
I'll go $5,000.
All right.
I'll take $5,000.
All right.
Sweet.
Just follow me up.
SEAN: He needs to resell them and make a profit.
So I'm happy with it.
[CHA-CHING]
So what do we got?
My Ultra4 race car.
COREY: It's kind of like a hybrid between a Trophy Truck
and a Rock Crawler, right?
BILL: Yep.
[TIRES SCREECH]
To race Ultra4 competitively, you'd better spend a lot
of money and a lot of time.
You can't have another hobby.
RICK (VOICEOVER): Top speed in it-- what's that?
100 miles an hour.
You want to show me?
Absolutely.
Once they see this car going, they're gonna want it.
CHUMLEE: Whoa.
Woo!
Awesome.
COREY: This thing is pretty bad ass.
I could see having a lot of fun with this thing.
We both know once you build this stuff,
you never get your money out of it.
BILL: That's why I'm only asking $50,000.
I'll do $20,000.
Could you do $42,000?
$25,000.
That's-- that's--
If I pull my lights, my nav--
Nope. BRETT MALY: --and my comm--
Nope.
I'm taking it all. $25,000.
How about $27,000, and I throw in the trailer?
We can do that. All right.
It's a deal.
Thanks.
CHUMLEE: Dude, when are we taking
this thing out in the desert?
Like I'd let you drive this.
[CHA-CHING]
RICK: Hey, Bernie.
How's it going?
BERNIE: How are you, Rick?
Can't wait to see this stuff.
BERNIE: This is it--
the Mouse House.
RICK: Whoa.
BERNIE: I've been collecting Mickey Mouse and Disney
things since about 1968--
before it was pop chic.
RICK: You are looking to sell some stuff, right?
BERNIE: Well, I've got a couple pieces
that I can show you that I think you'd find rather interesting.
Come here.
Let me show you.
I have probably the largest accumulation
of what they called Old King Cole store displays.
This is a Mickey, Donald, and another Mickey.
RICK: Amazing.
BERNIE: They were made by a company called Old King Cole.
There were very few made.
And very few survived.
RICK (VOICEOVER): I want these store displays.
I'm a closet Disney freak.
This is stuff that will never come my way again.
I need to have this.
So how much were you looking to get out of these?
I need $15,000 on the Donald, $25,000 for the pair.
And this one over here--
$12,000.
So if I took them all?
$35,000, Rick.
Would you go $30,000?
BERNIE: You're gonna negotiate with me?
RICK: Can we meet in the middle?
BERNIE: That would be $32,500, wouldn't it?
RICK: Yeah.
Congratulations.
You made yourself a hell of a buy.
RICK (VOICEOVER): I'm absolutely giddy.
Let's go look at some other stuff.
All right. RICK: [LAUGHS]
Hey, how's it going?
MAN: Pretty good.
This is "The Treaty of Amity, Commerce, and Navigation,"
otherwise known as "Jay's Treaty."
This is Thomas Jefferson's personal copy.
Whoa.
"Jay's Treaty" was a very unpopular piece of legislation.
But it was really significant because it
was our first major treaty with another country.
So if this book actually belonged to Thomas Jefferson,
we're talking a lot of money.
This is super exciting.
I'm assuming you want to sell it?
Is that why you're here? MAN: Yes.
Yes. - OK.
And how much are you looking to get out of it?
I'm looking for $75,000.
OK.
I'm gonna call a friend of mine.
I think he'll actually pee himself over this thing.
MAN: OK.
[LAUGHS]
MAN: If he expresses an opinion with which I disagree,
I won't hesitate to set him straight.
[VOCALIZING]
If this is what you said it is,
I'm gonna be a very excited person.
Jefferson had a secret way of marking his books.
He would put a T--
his first initial, T--
in front of the I page.
That is what they should look like there.
That is an awesome piece of American history.
RICK: Now, the big question is what
do you think this would go for?
BOOK EXPERT: If I were offering this to one of my good clients,
I'd probably put a price of $75,000 on it.
So--
OK.
What's your best price?
Well, $75,000 is my asking price.
I'm a buyer at $40,000.
I know that seems a big stretch from $75,000.
MAN: I could take it down to $60,000.
RICK: I will go $47,000, and I am--
I am skittish at that.
$50,000.
That's it.
Let me have it for $48,000.
I-- you know, I--
MAN: It's got to be $50,000.
It's got to be $50,000.
RICK: Oh, my god.
I cannot-- I cannot go below $50,000.
Deal.
Sold.
I'm very pleased to have gotten $50,000 for it.
I would have sold it for less than 50 grand.
