I believe what Samosa, and I, were getting at is the fact Rick will take advantage of people's ignorance/unfamiliarity with an item and will low ball it even though it is worth much more.
Yeah, he's in the business of making money but is there no decency, morals and values left in the world where the strong don't take advantage of the weak?
Have you watched American or CDN Pickers before? Ever seen where a seller asks a certain amount but the buyers offer/pay more because they know the seller didn't know what he had nor the real value of it? That is what we are talking about. Rick, nor is Pawn Stars hurting by any stretch of the imagination, and imo, their popularity, which equals more money, would increase 10 fold if they did this.
