On tonight's episode,
Chum breaks a sweat

over a Japanese knife.

It's in the shape of what's
known as a helmet breaker,

but it has a temper line
like a Japanese sword.

And would that be
really rare?

Yes, I've never even
seen one like this.

Then, will the deal rise
or end up toast

for Corey and Chum
on some antique furniture?

This is a bread box,
but it has older pieces

together with newer pieces
in it.

So how much of it
do you think is original?

Probably around 40% to 50%.

And later, a seller
brings in a French gun

that makes me say ooh la la.

- You want to fire it?
- Absolutely.

OK.
And as like a special target,

I was thinking
French baguettes.

Did you bring
any cheese and meat?

We could have, like,
a charcuterie board.

Tell me who you brought
this here on a bicycle.

No, he's a little bit
too big for that.

You've been living
under a rock if you don't know

who this guy is--
E.T., you know.

We had it
in our spare bedroom.

And any time we have
guests come over

and they wake up
in the middle of the night,

there's a creepy alien
looking down on them.

And my wife said it may
be time to let it go.

Everyone has said
how cute E.T. is.

I don't find him
that attractive.

I'm here at the pawn shop
to sell

my life-size replica
of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

I bought it at an estate sale

in southern Utah
several years ago.

It's an artist-commissioned
piece that looks identical

to the character in
the early '80s movie "E.T."

It looks exactly like it,

the same size, shape, color,
everything about it.

It stands about 4 feet tall.

It's made of latex and foam,
and it has a base,

and on the base, it's filled
with Reese's Pieces.

I'm hoping to get
$1,900 for E.T.

This is pretty cool.

"E.T.," no one ever thought

it was gonna do
as good as it did.

Everybody loved this movie.

I mean, just the merchandising
and everything.

I don't think anybody had
any idea it would do so well.

I mean, it was one

of the highest grossing movies
of all time.

It's a lot bigger than
I picture it from the movie.

You know what I mean?
Because he's cruising around

in his basket and his bicycle.

I mean, it's larger
than life, I think.

Do you know
the artist's name with this?

It's a famous renowned artist
named Mario Chiodo,

and he was
commissioned directly

through Amblin Entertainment,

which is
Steven Spielberg's company.

Did this artist come up with
the original rendition of E.T.?

No, he actually had the mold
from the actual E.T.

to create
an identical replica.

It's 783 of 15,000.

Generally,
when it says 738 of 15,000,

they don't make 15,000 of these
all at once.

They make a couple hundred.

As they sell,
they'll make some more.

They're really hoping
they get to 15,000,

but if they don't,
at least they don't have

a bunch left over.

Big question,
how much you want for this?

I've seen these go at auction
for between 2,200 and 2,500.

I feel that 1,900
is a fair price.

OK. We got a lot of things
going on here.

I have
a million and one questions.

Really don't know
about the artist.

Haven't heard of him.

My art guy,
he's here in the building.

Let me go find him.

He'll take a look,
and we'll go from there.

Sounds like a great plan.

All right.

- Hello.
- Hey, I've got something

really interesting
for you today.

All right,
let's see what you got.

It's a Japanese tanto
from World War II.

Interesting.

What makes this different
to a normal tanto

is that it has, like,
a lip on the back of it,

and it's a different shape.

Pretty cool.

A very useful weapon to have
on the battlefield.

You could use this
as self-defense.

That's cool.
Defensive can opener.

I'm here
at the pawn shop today

because I'm trying to sell my
World War II Japanese tanto.

I was given it
by my martial arts teacher

about 11 years ago.

It's got some faded
Japanese writing on the side.

It's got a really cool little
stamp symbol on the hilt.

I'm looking to get $7,200.

My wife is
six months pregnant,

and I'm gonna put it
straight towards,

you know, the baby fund.

It's pretty awesome.

I mean, I could see
how it could be called a tanto,

but I don't think it is.

I think it might be
a kabutowari.

- Ah, OK.
- Have you heard of that?

- No, I haven't.
- So a kabutowari would be--

I'm probably butchering
the name,

but the name roughly translates
into, like, "skull breaker"

or "helmet breaker,"
something like that.

And this little piece
right here would be

to reach up
and flip the helmet off.

Oh, cool.

And then crack someone
on the skull with it.

But I'm confused

because they wouldn't normally
have a sharpened edge.

Kabutowari, it was, you know,
meant to be a blunt force,

a blunt strike, you know?

So I'm a little bit confused
as to what this actually is.

But it's a really cool,
interesting piece.

Have you ever taken it apart
and looked it for any markings?

No, I haven't personally.

I'm actually
kind of intrigued here.

How much are you looking
to get?

I was looking
around the 7,200.

Before I can buy this,

I want to know
exactly what it is.

Fair enough, fair enough.

If you have a little bit
of time,

I would like to call down
Mike Yamasaki.

He is my expert
on all things sword-related.

Anything with a blade
from Japan, he knows about it.

Absolutely. Sounds like
the right thing to do.

All right.
Let me go give him a call

and see how long it will
take him to get down here.

OK, no problem.
Thank you.

A customer brought in
a numbered

limited edition sculpture
of E.T.

from the popular
1982 Steven Spielberg film.

The piece was done
by an artist

I've never heard of before.

I've asked
my art expert, Patrick,

to come in and take a look

before I make an offer
that makes me go, ouch.

Here it is.
- All right.

Hey, man.

- Hi. Patrick.
- Hi. Daniel.

Pleasure.
- Nice to meet you.

This is my art guy.

Anything to do with art
in here, he takes care of it.

- So looking to sell it?
- I am.

So do you know anything
about the artist?

- I do.
- So the artist

that created this
is Mario Chiodo.

He started off
creating monsters

and different fantasy figures.

He was known
for actually reproducing

studio characters
for the studios

to be able to sell
as collectibles.

So what he called it was
forensic sculpting,

where he would be given maybe
one of the original pieces

from the movie,
but instead of molding it,

he would just
entirely recreate it.

He's done Yoda,
the Terminator,

obviously E.T., the most
merchandised of them all.

Then he sort of shifted.

And now what he focuses on,

actual bronze sculptures
of humanitarians.

- OK.
- So it's quite the difference.

Quite the difference, yeah.

So did they make
15,000 of these?

Probably not.

So these would be
the centerpiece

in one
of the Halloween stores.

But if they didn't sell out
that Halloween,

they were on clearance
the next.

All right,
so what's it worth?

This one,
considering the fact

that it wasn't one
of the better sellers

out of the line of different
products that Chiodo made,

the value on this one,
I'm gonna put at $1,200.

OK. Thanks, man.

Appreciate it.
- No problem.

Hey, thank you.

- You're welcome.
- Appreciate it.

All right.
Here's the thing.

I got to sell it.
I got to retail it.

It takes up a lot of room, OK?

And it's not gonna sell
right away.

I'll give you 600 bucks.

Yeah, can't do that.

He said it's worth 12.

I mean, I'd be OK with 9.

There's no money in it
for me.

I mean, this thing is gonna
sit for a year.

I appreciate
you looking at it.

All right, well,
thanks for bringing it in.

- Appreciate it.
- OK, I'm gonna go get my guys,

and they'll help you
put it back in your bicycle.

Right on.
Thank you.

Since we didn't make a deal,

I'll have to phone home
to my wife

and let her know
E.T. is coming back with me.

A customer came
into the shop

with what he believes is
a Japanese tanto.

I'm confused about the blade

and actually think
this may be something else.

He's asking for $7,200,

so Mike Yamasaki is
on his way over

to see if my sword senses
are accurate.

Hey.

- How you doing?
- What's up, Chum?

How are you doing?
- Hey. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

So this is
what I called you about.

I'm not even gonna tell you
what I think it is.

I'm just gonna wait
to hear what you think.

Well, I'll tell you, that's
a very interesting piece.

It's in the shape of
what's known as a kabutowari,

or a helmet breaker,

but it has a temper line
like a Japanese sword,

and it has an edge.

Some people would think
that maybe this was a tanto

that was modified
by grinding down the back

to make it into
a combination kabutowari tanto.

But see the carving here
of the ken sword?

See how low it is?

If it was actually in a tanto,
it would have been higher.

It would be way up here,
and it'd be gone

after they ground it down.

So I almost am inclined to
believe it was made this way.

And would that
be really rare?

Yes, I've never even
seen one like this.

- Really?
- Do you mind if I use you

as the test dummy?
- Go ahead.

So kabutowari used to be
to move the helmet

and hit because they didn't
have an edge.

However, armor has
under the neck,

under the armpit.

So the way that this is shaped,
and it's pointed in this sense,

it looks like
it's actually made to go

through the hole in the armpit
straight to the heart.

Oh, OK.

Are you noticing
the maker mark on it at all?

No, I have to take it apart.

Do you think it's OK
if Mike takes it apart?

Absolutely.

Mm.

This is quite interesting.

There's no maker name,
but it's got some age to it,

probably from around
the late 1700s, early 1800s.

This is quite
something special.

How special is it
in dollar terms?

Well, I've seen

some very high-end
kabutowari, right?

This would be
a solid $5,000 piece.

All right.
I appreciate you, Mike.

Thank you.
- No problem.

Thanks so much.
I appreciate it.

So after hearing everything
Mike had to say,

what are you thinking?

I mean, he's saying 5.

I would need more than that.
- All right.

Well, we're not gonna come
to a deal today

because I'm gonna offer you
much less than that, you know?

Yeah, I see that.

But to be honest, just learning
all the history of it

makes it hard to sell it
when you know how unique it is.

You know what?
I don't blame you.

If I could have bought this,
I would have probably tried

to get it
for my own collection.

Of course.
Thank you so much.

I appreciate it.
- My pleasure.

Uh, bagatelle, right?

- Bagatelle.
- Baga-what?

Bagatelle.
It's a game--

they basically play it
in England.

I don't know of anywhere else
they play it.

That's the only place
I've ever seen it played.

And that was
a long, long time ago,

in a bar far, far away.

Today, I'm here to sell

what's called
a bagatelle table.

And it was very popular
in France and England.

It's sort of similar
to a billiards table.

I think it's time to sell it.

I simply don't have room
for it anymore,

so I can't enjoy it,
and it's best to get out

and get to where someone can
play on it again.

I think a fair price is $4,700.

This is neat.

What is this, like,
mini pool or something?

It's sort of slightly related
to pinball, but not really.

I sort of know the rules.

You'd be red.
I'd be white.

I'd take my white ball,
and I'd hit that black ball.

And you're trying to get
either your red ball

or the black ball in a hole.

Now, all the different holes

have a different number
in them.

So that's how many points
you get, OK?

But if you get
the black ball in a hole,

it's worth twice
as many points.

- OK.
- Mind you,

I had a few beverages in me

when these rules were
explained to me,

and it was, like,
over 20 years ago, OK?

So how old
do you think this is?

I think it's 1850s, 1860s.

Just from looking
at the hardware,

I'd say it's most likely
post-Civil War,

1870s, 1880s.

I don't doubt that
for a minute.

How much do you want for it?

Well, I want a lot,

but I think a fair price
is 4,700.

I mean, your problem is,

I mean, there's no place
to sell it.

No one plays this
in this country.

And the other problem is,

you have the restoration
project from hell here.

I mean, this needs
a ton of work.

I'm just gonna decline.

OK, it's--I just don't think

there's any market
in this country for this thing.

No one plays that here.

I mean, I've never heard
of anybody playing this here.

I've never seen another one.

- No, I've seen one--
- That's the point.

That's the point.
- I've never seen--

They're rare.
They're valuable.

Rare does not equal value.

And I--I'm just gonna pass.
There's no--

I don't believe there's any
market for it in this country.

- All right.
- All right.

That's fine.
But thank you.

- Thanks for bringing it in.
- Thanks for your information.

Appreciate it.
- I'll get my guys

to help you load it back up.
- All righty.

Hey, how you doing, boss?

What do we got here?

I got a nice copy of

the "John Wilkes Booth:
Life, Crimes, and Capture."

You know, that guy sucked.

Little bit, little bit.

John Wilkes Booth
assassinated

President Abraham Lincoln.

He was a guy who didn't fight
in the Civil War,

who had a very privileged
background and decided

he was going to be a martyr
for the South

because he didn't get his way.

I'm here today to sell a copy
of my book,

"The Life, Crime, and Capture
of John Wilkes Booth."

What makes this book special
to me is,

it's one of the first books
that details

the assassination
of an American president.

The condition of the book is
roughly about a four or five.

It's in original
state condition.

The cover's a little detached,
but all pages are there.

I'm hoping to get around $1,500
for my John Wilkes Booth book.

This is pretty cool, man.

So tell me about it.
Where did you get it?

I got this item
about ten years ago

out in Golden Valley, Arizona.

John Wilkes Booth's
great-nephew

lives in Golden Valley.

And this was a family heirloom

that I purchased from him
about a decade ago.

It's, like, the first known
piece about John Wilkes Booth,

of the assassination
of President Lincoln.

Yeah,
so what you got here is,

you know,
it's John Wilkes Booth.

We all know the story.
He went into the Ford Theater

and assassinated
President Abraham Lincoln.

It went out over the wires,
and everybody knew

the president got shot by this
guy named Booth, you know,

but if you were in the Midwest
or, you know, West Coast

or something like that, you had
no idea who this guy was.

And people wanted to know,
who was this guy?

What did he do?
What happened?

What's the play-by-play?

There was no 24-hour-a-day
news cycle going on.

I mean, he might have
been dead for a week

before you even knew
it happened.

And so they made
books like this

to kind of get the information
out there.

What are you looking
to get out of it?

I'm hoping to get
around 1,500.

You know, obviously, you have

some condition issues
with the thing.

I'm not really willing
to touch the thing.

It--I don't want it
falling apart in my hands.

To be honest with you, I mean,

I don't really know
what it could be worth.

Do you mind if I have my friend
come down and check it out?

She is my book expert.
She knows--

she'll know exactly
what to do with it.

Yeah, absolutely.

OK, we shall see.

I'll give her a call.
I'll be back in a few, OK?

Absolutely.

Fancy-looking box.

Can I open it up?

- Sure, absolutely.
- All right.

I have
a special Romain Jerome

18-karat gold
Titanic-DNA watch.

OK, so Romain Jerome,
it's a watch company,

and they wanted
to make high-end watches,

which was...

quite ambitious,
to say the least.

You're trying to break
into a business

against huge companies
who have loyal followers,

and it is not
an easy thing to do.

So they bought a chunk
of the "Titanic."

This is a special watch
made by Romain Jerome.

It's got 18-karat rose gold
on it,

and the bezel was actually
amalgamated metal

from the actual "Titanic."

It's got pistons
from the boilers.

It has the propeller on it.

It's just got
its own little mystique.

I'm hoping to get 17,000.

I think it's
a really cool design.

RJ Watches,

it's a high-end watch company
that started in 2004,

financed by
the Saudi royal family.

And it was very difficult
from the start

because you're competing
against these giant companies

that have, you know,
most of them,

well over a hundred years'
worth of experience.

And they had
a tough time of it.

They never flew high
in the watch community.

They just didn't.

And then they filed
for bankruptcy.

Basically,
the Saudi royal family said,

16 years of putting money
into this company every year,

and it's not working.

But they did have
a really cool design.

So where did you get it?
- I have a friend

that was liquidating
duty-free shops.

And I got
a pretty good deal on it.

And with the story
behind the "Titanic,"

I just couldn't pass it up.

And they were taking
a piece of the steel

and putting it on the watches
and saying,

"Titanic" DNA on them.

I mean, I think
it's a really cool watch.

I absolutely love it.

If the same design was done
by a more established company,

it probably would have
sold well.

How much do you want for it?

Yeah, I was looking
for 17,000.

Yeah, that would be tough.

- Yeah.
- OK, the problem is,

no one knows what it is.
- Yeah.

I'm afraid the thing's gonna
fade out of history.

I mean, I would give you,

like, $6,000 for it,
and I'm gambling at that,

because I have to put
this thing out for sale and--

you know what I mean?
99% of the people

don't know what it is.

Give me 7.

No. I'll go 6 grand on it.

And the problem is,

I don't know
if I'll ever sell it.

"Titanic" DNA.

I mean, you don't find that
anywhere else.

They were unique.

I'll give you 6,200 bucks,

and I'm kind of crazy
for doing that.

Make it 65,
and we got a deal.

Come on.
You're killing me here.

Fine.
I'm gonna regret this.

I don't think you will.

I think you're gonna
wear this, Rick.

All right, I'll meet you
right over there,

and I'll get you paid.
- Beautiful.

Thanks a lot, Rick.

I'm just hoping this thing
doesn't sit in the showcase

and sink like the "Titanic."

The "Titanic" was maybe
the most tragic,

but not the first attempt
at transatlantic travel.

18,000 years ago, in a much
shallower Atlantic Ocean,

some archaeologists believe

fishermen and hunters sailed
across the pond

in small boats
made of animal skins.

Impressive, but not exactly
the type of accommodations

your favorite pawn luminary
would require

on such a journey.

We've all learned
about Columbus setting sail

from Spain in August 1492.

Guy believes the Earth is way
smaller than it actually is,

so he's thinking,
hey, instead of sailing

all the way around Africa,
I'll just go west

across the Atlantic in order
to reach the East Indies.

His fleet makes landfall,

but he's actually docked
in the Bahamas.

Man, where was Google Maps
when you needed it?

These early voyages were
no picnic.

Imagine anywhere
from 40 to 90 days

of seriously brutal
conditions.

And a few of the passengers
definitely didn't make it

to the final destination.

But centuries later,

ships more than made up for it
with luxury.

Mega-sized ocean liners,

like the SS "Great Western,"
were built--

I'm talking 1,320 tons,
212 feet long.

Its maiden voyage departs
England on April 8, 1838,

and arrives in New York City
15 days later.

That's double the speed
of other ships at the time.

That's like taking
a cross-country flight

in two and a half hours.

Sign me up.

While most people choose
to fly across the Atlantic

in mere hours these days,

there are those who still enjoy
a good boat ride.

March 29, 2023,
Royal Caribbean ship

"Symphony of the Seas" set a
new record for the most people

to cross the Atlantic Ocean
on a single ship.

This behemoth is roughly
four times the size

of the "Titanic" and carries
over 7,600 people.

Just imagine the size
of that buffet.

I need to call my travel agent.

There's a guy
in the shop with a copy

of "The Life, Crime, and
Capture of John Wilkes Booth."

This is essentially a pamphlet
written by a journalist

who recorded the events
during the search

for John Wilkes Booth
after the assassination

of President Abraham Lincoln.

He's asking for $1,500.

It's not
in the best condition,

but this is
a piece of ephemera

that was never intended
to last over a hundred years.

I have Rebecca on her way over
to let me know

if this would be a good buy
for the shop or not.

"The Life, Crime, and Capture
of John Wilkes Booth."

All right.
Can I take a look?

Yeah, feel free.

Looks kind of fragile.

I'll be careful.

I'm assuming
it wasn't meant to last.

Yeah, this is definitely
a problem.

You're right in thinking

that this was meant
to be kind of ephemeral.

You know,
it's getting out this news

right then and there
for people who want it.

It's very cheap paper.

It wasn't meant to survive
150 years later.

These were essentially
journalistic dispatches.

So just like today, when there
are major trials, major events,

you have correspondents
who are there,

and they're noting down
everything that's happening.

They're noting
who's saying what.

They are interviewing people.

They're getting as much
information as they can.

And then they're
writing reports

that end up in newspapers.
- OK.

So the guy who wrote this
is George Alfred Townsend.

Townsend was a journalist,

so he is interviewing
the detectives

who are searching
for the conspirators.

He is there at the trial,

and he is writing down
what is being said.

And so he is the eyewitness

that everyone else is
sort of relying on

to say what happened.

And all of that is in here.
- OK.

Give me an idea of what
something like that's worth.

We are dealing
with a few problems here.

We've got the wrappers.
They exist,

but they are not
totally intact.

Besides the wrappers, though,

there are
a couple other problems.

So for example,
the fact that it even has

the trial
and the executions in it.

You see there are 79 pages,
plus the poem on the back.

The first issue of this
was actually

issued during the trial.

And so that has 64 pages.

This is a later issue,

which, on the collectible
marketplace,

first beats all.
- True.

So is it collectible?
What's it worth?

For me, given all of this,

I think the retail price is
going to be around 750.

- You're the best, Rebecca.
- Happy to help.

All right, take care.
- You too. Thank you.

All right, my man.

So I can give you, like,
250 bucks for it.

I got liability issues
with this thing.

It's just very fragile.

I mean, if I show it
to a customer

and they drop it on the ground
or something like that,

it could break
the stitching in it.

It's already falling apart
pretty much.

You won't go any higher at all?

Mm...275.

Well, it doesn't do
much well in my house, so...

So 275, we got a deal?

- Yeah, that sounds good.
- All right, cool.

Just leave that here for now.
- All right.

I got a call from a woman
who said she has

a unique revolver
she's looking to sell.

So I'm meeting her
out here at the range,

and hopefully, I got a shot
at making a deal today.

Hello there.
- Hi. How are you?

Oh, pretty good.

So this is the French gun?

- Yes, French revolver.
- OK.

May I?
- Yeah, absolutely. Go ahead.

This is weird.

I've never seen a hammer system
like this on an old gun.

This is just straight-up...
weird.

I have never seen...

such weirdness.

I reached out
to the pawn shop

because I'm interested
in selling

my French revolver
from the 1800s.

A few years ago, my dad
went through our family's

gun collection, and we were
each able to pick out one,

and this one is the one
that caught my eye.

I've done research on it,

and I couldn't find
anything on it.

So I really don't know much
about the gun.

I spoke to my family about it,

and we felt like 5,500
would be a fair asking price.

This is one of the oddest
pistols I've ever seen.

Do you know anything about it?

I actually don't know much
about this gun.

I mean,
it's a percussion gun,

so it was made after 1830.

But I've never seen a hammer
system like this on an old gun.

Apparently the hammer
comes back,

and another mechanism fires
the firing pin

because there's no way for this
to fire any of the caps.

So there must be another
mechanism to fire the caps.

I imagine this lever has
some way to load it,

but I don't want to mess it up,
so I'm not gonna try with it.

Anyway, it was probably used
in the Civil War,

I'll tell you that,
because we were importing

just about any gun they could
get, especially the South,

because there was
no manufacturing in the South.

- Yeah.
- And they were importing

all kinds of guns.

I mean, this thing looks
expensive, though.

I'm kind of lost on it.

So how much were you looking
to get out of it?

About 5,500.

OK.
I mean, it's a great guess.

It's definitely rare.

What it's worth, I don't know.

But my buddy Alex is supposed
to be coming out here.

He'll tell us what it is--
hopefully.

OK, I'll be right back.

I'm gonna give him a call.
- Yeah, go for it.

I'm out here
at the gun range

looking at
a very unique revolver

that appears to be French
by looking at the markings.

The seller is looking
to get $5,500.

Thankfully,
I have Alex Cranmer

coming out to take a look

because this is just
all French to me.

I found him.
- Perfect.

I'm Mya.
- Alex.

Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

That is the weirdest gun
I've ever seen.

Oh, wow.
Do you mind if I pick it up?

- Yeah, go for it.
- Have you seen one of these?

Yes.
Ooh, this is nice.

So, this is a French model
1854 Devisme revolver.

"Louis-Francois Devisme,"
and then "Paris."

I know it's a model 1854

because this is
a pretty well-known firearm.

Devisme was one of the most

highest regarded
French gunmakers.

His pieces are considered
pieces of art.

There are Devisme examples
in many museums

and some of the highest
collections around the world.

OK, so he didn't, like,
mass-produce these?

No, these were not
mass-produced.

This was a high-end firearm

to buy
in the middle 19th century.

All right, and how
do you even open that up?

So it's
a very interesting system.

You see, the hammer
doesn't strike anything.

So this is really just a spur.

The actual firing hammer
is inside the frame.

So to open it up,
you pull the lever down,

and then pull the barrel off
and then the cylinder.

Oh, that's crazy.

So do you see
inside the cylinder,

there are pillars?
- OK.

So the idea behind this is
you pour the black powder in,

which falls on the side
of the pillar.

Then you put your projectile,
your ball in,

and you whack it
with, like, a rod.

And it makes
the ball expand a bit,

which grips the inside
of the cylinder

and then the rifling
inside the barrel.

So you're hitting
something full of gunpowder...

- Exactly.
- With a hammer.

Yes.
So in comparison to,

say, a Colt
or a Smith & Wesson,

this is much longer to load,

but it's single-action,
six rounds, rifle barrel.

OK. So does it work?

I mean,
it's in excellent condition.

I mean, really,
really high-end condition.

Do you want to fire it?

Do you want to fire it?

Absolutely,
if we can do that.

It's actually pretty simple.

I just have to figure out
exactly the caliber.

And it's then black powder
and some percussion caps--

all stuff I have.

So if you let me take it
and inspect it for a bit,

then I can tell you for sure.

OK, go work your--

sorry, how do you say "magic"
in French?

"Magique"?

I don't think so.
All right.

Je suis "magique"?

So I'll text you
when Alex is ready.

- OK.
- All right.

- How you doing?
- Good.

What do you have here?

I have an antique
French bread box

to hold French bread.

Looks a little big
for a loaf of bread.

Well, you can put as many
as you want in there.

It's a lot of bread.

I'm here at the pawn shop
because I want to sell

my antique French bread box.

So this bread box has

a very nice color to it
with the wood.

It's beautifully put together.

The age of this is probably
about 17th or 18th century.

It does have some kind of
nicks and cracks to it,

but I think it's
in pretty good condition,

considering the age
of the actual product.

I'm hoping to get 5,400 for
my antique French bread box.

This is pretty interesting.

Where did you get this?

A friend of mine brought it
back from France

about 20 years ago,
and I got it from him.

OK. The French are known
for their pastries,

so they definitely have
some good bread over there.

It probably was something

that maybe would have been
in a bakery

just from looking at it,
because it's kind of big

for something that you'd have
in your house.

Typically, when I think
of a bread box,

I think of the one sitting
on my grandma's counter.

I think ours was always
on top of the fridge

or something like that.

Any idea what year
it might be from?

No, I'm not sure
what year it's from,

but I know it's antique.
- OK.

It looks like, you know,
what, 19th century?

Probably older than that.

Can I take a look at it?

Sure, go ahead.

Well, it's definitely had
some modern restorations on it,

but, well, some modern screws
going here and there.

Two different heads.
But these things weren't meant

to stand the test of time.

It was a tool, basically.

I mean,
it's made of burl wood,

which is worth some money.

Can you see the marks in it
where you've got these,

like, really cool grains,
almost swirls like that?

- Oh, yeah.
- That's from burl wood,

which, believe it or not,
is like a cancer

that grows on trees.

I don't know if it's
a bread box or not.

I don't--I've never seen
one like it before.

I mean, it's pretty detailed

to be something that was used
in a bakery.

I don't know.
Chum, what do you think?

You ever seen
one of these before?

I don't really know.

I do know that
if it's a bread box,

these things can go
for a lot of money.

I've seen them go for thousands
of dollars before.

- OK.
- But I'm with you.

I don't know
if it's a bread box.

What are you looking
to get out of it?

5,400.

You know, I really don't know
enough about it

to make you any kind
of real offer, man.

I got a guy who will know
everything about it.

Do you mind
if we give him a call?

You want to call Deric?
- Yeah, I'll give him a call.

Do you have a few minutes
to hang around?

- Yeah, sure.
- All right.

Give me just a few minutes.

The customer brought in
a huge antique carved piece

of furniture that he says is
a bread box from France.

I've never seen
anything like it,

but he would like
to get $5,400.

I've asked
our antique expert, Deric,

if it's really what
the seller claims it to be

and if it's really worth
that kind of bread.

Hey, how's it going, Deric?
- Hey, Corey.

Hi, Chum.
How are you?

Pretty good.
Thanks for coming by.

Thank you.
Always good to see you.

I'm Deric.
- Irfan.

- Good to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

So this gentleman says
he has a bread box,

and Corey and I've just never
seen a bread box like this.

But you know antiques
and furniture,

so I thought maybe you would
know something about it.

This is a bread box.

Fancy way to say it
is a panetière.

Sounds better.

And it is circa--

I want to say
probably around 1820, 1830.

And they were quite popular.

So was there
any particular reason

they made these so big
if it was in a house?

They were in every home
almost, you know,

especially because bread
is a big staple

in the French lifestyle.

But it could also have been
in a bakery,

which would indicate why
it's quite so large.

Could I look at it closer?

- Sure, go ahead.
- Great.

So it does have additional
parts that are a little newer.

But I think if I were
a few hundred years old,

I, too, would have
a few added parts.

There's an addition on the back

that someone decided
they were gonna hang it.

And these turnings,

some of these are
highly likely reproduced.

Some look original,
some don't.

Some were done on a machine.

Yeah, I can see the machining
on this one here.

Right.
So it's quite interesting.

You know, this is made up
of antique elements,

is a nice way to put it.

You know, but it has
older pieces

together with newer pieces
in it.

So how much of it
do you think is original?

I think probably
around 40% to 50% is original.

And that being said,
what do you think it's worth?

I would think
in this condition,

and given the current market,

we're looking at around $300.

All right, well, Deric,
I appreciate you coming down.

Man, thanks a lot.
- Always good to see you guys.

- Thank you.
- Thank you so much.

It was nice to see your piece.

So this is pretty cool,
Big Hoss,

but it's probably really hard
to sell right now.

I mean, it's a lot of work,
and I--

I'm gonna have to pass,

but I really appreciate
you bringing it in.

I'll see if I can get somebody
to help you carry it out.

Thank you.

Earlier, I met a woman
out here at the range

looking to sell a gun
that I had never seen before.

I learned from Alex
it's a 19th-century

French revolver,
and it's pretty unique.

The seller's asking
for $5,500.

Alex has inspected the weapon

and says it's ready
to test-fire.

Let's see how well
this thing shoots

and if the price is on target.

So it looks like you have
all the accoutrements.

I have everything
that we need to make this fire.

What caliber is it?

It's 41,
and they're lead balls.

So when I put
the black powder in,

I'm going to then use
this brass rod.

And do you know why it's brass?

- So it doesn't spark.
- Correct.

So I can whack it down,

and it won't create a spark,
igniting the black powder.

I'm still gonna stand back
when you do that.

OK.
And as, like, a special target,

since this is a French gun
from Paris,

I was thinking,
what's the next best thing

to actually being in Paris?

And that's having
some French baguettes.

OK.

Did you bring
any cheese and meat?

We could have, like,
a charcuterie board.

I mean, I think
I did pretty well.

It's a lot of baguettes.
- Yeah.

- OK. All right.
- All right.

So I'm gonna use
the black powder.

And then I put
the first ball in.

And then hit it
with the hammer.

Let's step back.

OK.

OK.

OK, we're ready to fire.

- All right, eyes and ears.
- All right, I'm ready.

All right,
I'm coming over there.

All right.

Three, two, one.

Yes!

We got French toast!

Every time
he sets up targets,

he puts something there, yeah.
- That's what the fun is.

Charles de Gaulle
would be proud of you.

Yes, all of France
would be proud today.

OK, so they're
really collectible?

They're very collectible.

If you are a serious
antique firearms collector,

especially if you're collecting
mid-19th century,

you have to have a Devisme
in your collection.

What do these things go for?

I've seen them
as low as 4,000.

I've seen them
as high as 10,000.

I think
for this particular one,

I would say 8,000
is a good price.

- Wow.
- OK.

Thanks, man.
You're amazing.

You're welcome.

Good luck.
- Thank you.

Thanks for letting me
shoot it.

How much did you say
you wanted for it?

5,500.

I'll tell you what.
I'll give you 5 grand for it.

I mean, I got to sell it.

I mean, I'm sure it won't take
that long to sell it,

but it will take a while.
- OK.

And time is money
and everything else like that.

But 5 grand?

That's more than fair.

- I can do 5 grand.
- All right, we've got a deal.

Awesome.

I will get Alex.

He'll help you load
everything up.

Just bring it back
to the pawn shop.

We'll do some paperwork.
I'll get you paid.

Awesome.
All right, I'll see you then.

All right, cool.

- How's it going today?
- Hey, how are you doing?

Good. I'm looking to sell
some cards here.

All right,
looks like you have

mostly 1982 wrestling
All Star cards here with--

well, I think this Hulk Hogan
is '85 Topps, right?

Yes, correct.
Two of them are

actually autographed
by Hulk Hogan.

Did you have those
autographed yourself?

I actually went
and visited Hulk Hogan.

I actually have a picture.
When he autographed that one,

he said, "Nice card, brother."

He knew that was
a pretty good one.

It's more than pretty good,
I think, right?

It's pretty much the Holy Grail
of wrestling cards.

I'm here to sell
1982 wrestling All Star cards.

There are seven cards
altogether.

And the two special ones were
autographed by Hulk Hogan.

It's a 1982 wrestling
All Star, Hulk Hogan,

and then there's a 1985.

I got them from
a sports memorabilia shop

in Fairhaven, Massachusetts.

My dad and I have
a huge sports collection

of various memorabilia,

and we picked them up
approximately five years ago.

What makes
the collection special

is that the cards
are very rare.

I'm looking to get $40,000

for my 1982 wrestling
All Star cards.

This is cool.

So this is the 1980s.

This is kind of like the time
of all times in wrestling.

The 1980s was long
after wrestling started,

but this isn't wrestling
as we know it today,

where we watch it on TV.

There wasn't even
mass television broadcast

of these wrestling shows.

Sometimes the wrestling shows
would be on a local channel,

and a small amount of people
would watch it.

But it wasn't like
the kind of promotion

that was behind it today.

Vince McMahon is the one
who came in and changed that.

Actually, Vince McMahon
had a part in setting up

this '82 All Stars
wrestling card things.

And then it was
just a few years later

that Vince McMahon released
a set of WWF cards.

And you were able
to buy them in the pack...

- Absolutely.
- And just kind of chase cards.

Which that actually came
straight out of the pack,

and then he autographed it.
- OK.

Oh, so you had some packs,
and you opened them up?

Yeah, yeah, opened them up.
Yeah.

And the rest of these
are '82s--

well, at least
I think they're '82s.

Yes.

You got the two
most important cards, really.

Hulk Hogan '82 is considered

the most sought-after wrestling
card, and it's followed up

pretty closely
by this Ric Flair right here.

And you do have
a lot of good ones.

I mean, Ricky Steamboat, legend.

Of course, the American dream,
Dusty Rhodes.

And then you have
Paul Orndorff over here.

So you definitely have
some really cool cards.

And do you have
a price in mind?

Approximately $40,000.

That seems pretty high to me.

Do you have a reason
for asking that?

There's not many examples
of these cards on the internet.

And I've done some research,

and that's the most reasonable
price what I could find.

A year and a half ago,
I was able to buy

these complete sets sealed

for right around $9,000
to $10,000 a set.

But with that being said,
these cards could hold a lot

of value in them, but it's
all considered on the grade.

As much as I wish I could
take a gamble on these,

my boss wouldn't be very happy
if I bought these rare cards

ungraded, sent them in,
and they came back

under what I expected.

Absolutely.
I completely understand.

I think for now,
I'm just gonna pass on them.

All right, well, thank you.
I appreciate it.

- Thanks for bringing them in.
- Thanks for your time.

Unfortunately, I couldn't
pin down the deal today,

but I guess Chumlee's not
the "Hulkamaniac"

I believed him to be.

Earlier today, Chum and I
looked at a bagatelle table.

And seeing this, I realized
I should invite the guys over

to the house for a good,
old-fashioned game of pool.

That was not
a really good break, Pops.

What up, guys?

- What's up?
- What's up?

I just thought we
might have a pool night.

So I brought my bathing suit
for no reason?

- You brought your what?
- My bathing suit.

When you said pool, I thought
we were going swimming.

- We can do that, too.
- All right.

Here, you can take
the next shot for me.

Oh, this is a tough shot.

I'll teach you how it's done.

Agh.

Obviously,
you've been playing a lot.

I just want to know why Chum
is playing your game for you.

Well, I mean,
I figured it's kind of rude

to invite Chum over
to play pool

and you not let him play pool.

OK, but me and you were
playing a game,

and then Chum took over
for you.

Corey, you want to shoot one?

Um, no, go for it, Chum.

All right,
I think we're tied now.

Whoa!

Agh.

Me and Chum are doing
really good.

Did you have both feet
on the ground?

Isn't that, like, a rule?

No, it's not a rule.

Bam.
- I win.

Aren't you supposed
to call your shot in 8-ball?

- No, you're not.
- All right.

So what did I just do?

- You beat me.
- Yes, I won.

I mean, can we play
another game?

All right.

Do we want to bet
on the next game?

You know, when I was a kid,
you taught me

not to ever play pool for money

with a guy that brought
his own stick.

Well, you have your own stick,
your own pool table,

and we're in your house.

No, I'm not gonna play
for money with you.

All right, Chum,
want to bet on a game?

All right.
