great commercial, could totally see that happening... what would they offer for it at the pawn shop, my guess is $100, greedy as they are. I dont think they would tell her what she had myself... just my experience from seeing pawnbrokers in action a few times.

probably won't be too much longer before we'll see the banners out front
of the shops saying WE BUY T206s instead of WE BUY GOLD or perhaps both banners will be swinging in harmony--- blowing the mounds of cigarette butts here and there.

best,

I've seen that clip before... Those guys are too funny... I remember the episode with the 1932 Quarter... The value of the quarter was dependent on where it was minted... It turns out that someone had removed the original Mint mark (a D I think) and replaced it with an S, which has more value... That sounds like what someone might try to do with a baseball card to rip someone off... They called in an expert who confirmed that indeed the Mint mark was mucked with to make the coin appear more valuable....

You might want to watch the show once or twice before drawing conclusions.

Captain,

I agree with you, though I can't help but notice that as the show has progressed, Chumlee has become dumber and dumber. I realize it's a TV show, but I hope it doesn't become just a bunch of guys playing their assigned roles (i.e. Chumlee gets more stupid, the old man gets crabbier and Big Hoss lazier).

Big Hoss' Christmas sweater from his grandma was priceless!

That is the same thing that happened with American Chopper.

I have always prefered the "Ready. Fire. Aim." approach!

It eliminates many annoying issues.

Thanks for a LOL moment this morning!
