Here's a clip from Pawn Stars I just came across, that I thought was pretty cool. A good deal in my opinion... fair to both sides. The seller knew what he had, got a good price, and left a little room for Rick to make a profit as well.

One of the few Pawn Stars negotiations that actually made sense... no shorting the seller, and no myopic seller asking 10 times what his item is worth. Forward to the 2:01:30 mark, if you don't care to see all the other negotiations.

Hope you enjoy- here's the link...

Poster/photo toploaders cut to fit. A guillotine paper cutter cuts through like butter, and you can make these quickly and easily with a perfect edge. Use the existing rigid edge on the bottom and close with clear wrapping tape (better than “invisible” or “magic” tape) along the top edge.

11”x14” toploaders work great for most minis, two per, and less than $1 apiece if you buy a pack of 20. I needed 13”x19” for my set of Bazookas. Still it ends up costing little more than $1 each.

Regular sized holders trimmed down at the open end can work but these Bazookas aren’t quite proportional to the full-size, you’ll pay a bit more and they won’t quite have even spacing.

Not ideal, but at least it's easy to do!

Thanks for the replies, everyone. Very helpful!

New to me. SF Giants with Seals Stadium pictured. It's it very nice condition.

Nice Marc … I don’t know of another pennant in that general style …

Beautiful. One of my bigger regrets was trading that one away, as it never surfaces. Awesome example!

Thanks, guys. Here is the copy I've had for getting close to 10 years. I'll likely trade or sell at some point soon. It has a blunted tip and the top tassels have some dirt/staining at the tip. It's a bit more orange than the other (which I like). I know that ooo-ribay has two versions of this, with slightly different Giants font. And there is a version with the batter and parts of the stadium painted. I've only see it on Worthpoint.

Here is the painted one, that me, Ooo-ribay, and I'm sure several others would love to find. I think this Dodgers one may be the same maker. Probably Trench, because of what Oooribay calls the "cartoon" font for "Giants" that shows up on a few other Giants pennants.
