Pawn Stars: These Sellers Are Offered WAY MORE Than Expected

They pretty much stayed in the box the entire time. The condition is really good. Today is your lucky day. You've doubled your money on these. I'll give you 2,000 dollars. - Nice. Excellent. I'll take it. - Okay, it seems fine to me. Meet my boys there. They will write to you, okay? - Excellent. Thank you. -Have a nice day. RICK: I've been driving for a couple of hours and with no one to bother me, it's been the best. I just crossed into Utah and entered a small town called Hurricane to look for some food. What do we have here?

And I noticed a little antique store with a strange trailer out front, so I'll go in and see what they have. OWNER: Hello. RICK: Hello. How are you? OWNER: Good. How are you? RICK: Okay. Just looking around. OWNER: Sure. Unfortunately, even when I'm on vacation I can't help it. I'm always looking for deals. One of the weird things about a random antique store is that you never know what you'll find. It may be completely full of garbage. It may be full of treasures. It may be too expensive. It may be priced too low. Is the pianola for sale?

OWNER: Well, everything has its price. What year is? He is 110 years old. And does it work and all that? Here, try it. It is the success of the store. RICK: Okay. OWNER: What do you think? RICK: So what would you accept for that? It would have to be

more

than $10,000. RICK: That's a little

more

than I want to pay. OWNER: Well, I'd be in trouble if I sold it. I gave it to my wife for her birthday. How much do you love your wife? A lot. OK. What this place has going for it is pretty big.

So there could be that little treasure hidden somewhere. This is definitely cool. Excuse me. RICK: Yeah, do you know anything about this? OWNER: It is on consignment. I don't know anything about it. It looks like some kind of helmet. RICK: It looks like a samurai helmet. You're asking $300 for it. I probably shouldn't tell you this, but you're not asking enough for this... I had it for $300. I have a conscience. I believe in karma. I had to tell him how much it was worth. --because it could sell for up to $2,500. Actually? RICK: Yeah. Wow. I own Ugly Trailer Antiques in Hurricane, Utah.

With the samurai helmet, I was really surprised that it was worth so much. That stunned me. I think the customer who has it on consignment will be delighted. RICK: This is really cool. This is a samurai helmet from the late Edo period. FRED: When is that? I think from the early 1600s to basically 1868, somewhere around there. You know, there was the emperor, who was like the king, and then there was the samurai, who was kind of like the world court. They were basically the equivalent of dukes and earls of England. Over the years, I have seen a few samurai helmets.

I have seen many samurai swords. So when you get those things in your store, you try to do a lot of research on them. That way you'll know what to look for the next time they come. I mean, everything about this seems right. So how much would you charge for it? What will you give me? $1,250. I have to do a little better than that. To begin with, you only wanted $300. So what will you accept for it? Well, I think after what I learned today about it, I think we should have at least $2000 for it. $1,500? Fred: Come on.

You can do better than that. $1,700. I'm going to $1,600. $1,650. Very good, $1650. Alright. Let's write it. I usually say that. You can tell that when you go to an antique store in a small town, every now and then you can find something. I think I can sell it quickly. Sturgis, here I come. COREY: Hey, how are you? RANDY: Pretty good. I bought some magazines at a garage sale and they were stuffed between the pages. They say Playboy on them. COREY: Buying used Playboys, huh? RANDY: I came to the

pawn

shop today to sell my copies of Playboy comics from 1955.

I think these things can be worth a lot of money, just because they're old and they're from Playboy. I basically bought them for free and am ready to cash in on them. COREY: So you bought them at a garage sale, huh? RANDY: Yes, sir. COREY: Okay. Do you know a lot about them, or... This one says October of '55, this one is December of '55. OKAY. Yeah, this hasn't been long since Playboy started. I think Hefner worked for Esquire magazine and was asking for a raise of five dollars a year. And they told him to go grind salt, so he got a $1,000 loan and started Playboy.

Almost 65 years later, we are still here talking about him. Multimillionaire. COREY: Yes. Hugh Hefner knew how to add a touch of class to his magazines. He had articles by famous writers and hired some of the best-known cartoonists to draw caricatures of him. He definitely separated Playboy from the typical dirty magazine. What they are is that cartoonists would illustrate something, draw it, and then he would have to get approval for it. And they would fly back and forth like that over and over again, until they finally put it in the magazine. This one is kind of funny.

It's a waitress telling the waiter to cut off Benson because he just pinched her. This one doesn't have a title, but I guess the humor is that the guy lying in bed looks at his own photo of himself as the lawyer he advertises at the hospital. These cartoons are definitely a little dated, but they are original signed works of art. And Playboy stuff from the 1950s has become really collectible. So what do you want to do with them, friend? RANDY: I'd like to sell them. COREY: Any idea what you want for them? RANDY: I'd like $100 a piece. $100 a piece.

Be honest with you, man, they're worth a lot more than that. RANDY: They're... COREY: Yeah, they're worth more than that. Me and my big mouth, but how about this? I'll give you 500 dollars a piece. Works for me. Well, I appreciate you being honest with me. COREY: Sounds good, man. - Sounds good. COREY: Let's write it down. I couldn't believe they were worth so much money. I have 1,000 dollars in my pocket and I am a happy man.
