I'm hoping to get $2,500for the egg.

I've had the egg for 15 years.I think it's about time

so I know a little bit
about the elephant bird.
28
00:01:15,659 --> 00:01:17,327
Basically, they were
the biggest birds ever.
29
00:01:17,369 --> 00:01:19,830
Looked like an ostrich,
but it weighed twice as much.
30
00:01:19,871 --> 00:01:21,206
It was, like, a foot taller.
31
00:01:21,290 --> 00:01:24,960

a very old trading card‐‐

‐ I think ostriches are scary.
‐ Ostriches are scary enough.
36
00:01:34,094 --> 00:01:36,221

these things up and they, like,

from several egg shells.
38

How much would you like

I have no idea

out of eggshell.

this looks like it was
probably used by a pilot.

00:03:11,608 --> 00:03:12,818
I would say that
just basically
81
00:03:12,859 --> 00:03:14,820
because of the opening
on the side right there.

‐ Most likely,
it is definitely military,

00:03:24,746 --> 00:03:28,417
but I would beg to differ
that this is from World War II.
88
00:03:30,210 --> 00:03:31,920
Being that it's plastic
like this,
89
00:03:32,003 --> 00:03:35,132

from Korea or Vietnam Era.

That was one of the things
that I came across.

realistically,

if it's an abandoned property,
out in the desert,
96
00:03:49,354 --> 00:03:51,148

00:06:13,373 --> 00:06:16,418
It's a really cool
Ron Lee icon.
163
00:06:16,501 --> 00:06:18,753
This is Warner Brothers,
but more importantly,
164
00:06:18,837 --> 00:06:20,338
it's Bugs Bunny.
165
00:06:20,422 --> 00:06:22,465
No matter what the movie was,
166
00:06:22,507 --> 00:06:24,968
Bugs Bunny'salways gonna be collectible.
167
00:06:25,010 --> 00:06:28,638
Okay. Pretty cool.
There's his signature there,
168
00:06:28,722 --> 00:06:32,434
so I'm afraid to know
what you're asking for this.
169
00:06:32,517 --> 00:06:35,729
‐ Well, I think it's worth
a good 700, 800 bucks.
170
00:06:35,812 --> 00:06:37,981
I'd like to get 600 for it.
‐ Okay.
171
00:06:38,064 --> 00:06:42,277
Um‐‐[sighs]
172
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,197
Would you do 400 on it?
‐ I'd do 550 on it.
173
00:06:46,281 --> 00:06:47,365
‐ I'm willing to go 450,
174
00:06:47,449 --> 00:06:50,410
because I'm hoping
I can get 600 out of it.
175
00:06:50,493 --> 00:06:52,704
‐ 450 is what I paid,
so make me feel like
176
00:06:52,787 --> 00:06:57,292
I've made a little bit
of money. 475.
177
00:06:57,375 --> 00:07:00,128
‐ I'll go 475,
against my better judgment.
178
00:07:00,211 --> 00:07:02,797
‐ [laughs] All right.
‐ All right.
179
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,174
‐ All right,
so the Alice Cooper,
180
00:07:04,257 --> 00:07:06,635
I'm looking for 100.
‐ So you'll take 50
181
00:07:06,676 --> 00:07:08,678
for the Alice Cooper poster?
‐ No. Come on.
182
00:07:08,762 --> 00:07:10,430
We're friend‐‐50?
‐ Come on.
183
00:07:10,513 --> 00:07:12,807
Give me a better deal than 100.
‐ 75.
184
00:07:12,891 --> 00:07:15,101
‐ 65.
‐ 75.
185
00:07:15,185 --> 00:07:16,561
‐ We'll do this for 75,
186
00:07:16,645 --> 00:07:18,271
'cause I think I can make
50 bucks off that.
187
00:07:18,355 --> 00:07:19,898
‐ All right.
‐ That works for me.
188
00:07:19,981 --> 00:07:23,068
All right, so I really,
really want this secret panel
189
00:07:23,151 --> 00:07:24,736
Haunted Mansion chest.
190
00:07:24,819 --> 00:07:29,157
‐ Well, it could be yours
for the low, low price of 125.
191
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,744
‐ Would you go $70 on this?
192
00:07:32,827 --> 00:07:34,829
Now, I'm thinking that,
at 125,
193
00:07:34,913 --> 00:07:37,332
that's probably
about what I'd get for it.
194
00:07:37,374 --> 00:07:39,042
Maybe on a really good day.
195
00:07:39,125 --> 00:07:42,212
‐ You know those good days are
coming, so how about 100 bucks?
196
00:07:42,295 --> 00:07:43,838
‐ How about 75?
197
00:07:43,922 --> 00:07:46,132
‐ 80 bucks
and we'll call it a deal.
198
00:07:46,174 --> 00:07:47,467
‐ All right. 80 bucks.
Sounds good.
199
00:07:47,550 --> 00:07:48,718
‐ It sounds like a plan.
200
00:07:48,802 --> 00:07:50,136
‐ Let's go write up
some paperwork.
201
00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:51,179
I'll meet you
at the front desk.
202
00:07:51,262 --> 00:07:52,764
‐ All right. Cool.
203
00:07:52,847 --> 00:07:54,391
Overall, I got a great dealat the pawn shop today.
204
00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:55,725
I made some money,
had some fun,
205
00:07:55,809 --> 00:07:58,812
and now I'm off to go find
some other cool stuff.
206
00:07:58,853 --> 00:08:05,568
♪ ♪
207
00:08:05,652 --> 00:08:07,529
‐ Hey, how's it going?
‐ Pretty good.
208
00:08:07,612 --> 00:08:09,823
I have something I think
you might be interested in.
209
00:08:09,906 --> 00:08:11,992
I have a letter
from Richard Nixon
210
00:08:12,075 --> 00:08:13,326
to Sammy Davis, Jr.
211
00:08:13,410 --> 00:08:15,370
‐ That is pretty impressive.
212
00:08:15,453 --> 00:08:16,913
Corey, you gotta look at this.
213
00:08:16,997 --> 00:08:18,915
Where in the world
did you get this?
214
00:08:18,999 --> 00:08:20,458
‐ At an auction.
215
00:08:20,542 --> 00:08:22,168
I collect presidential
memorabilia and autographs,
216
00:08:22,252 --> 00:08:24,254
and I saw this,
and thought, "Wow!"
217
00:08:24,337 --> 00:08:25,839
‐ Yeah. I mean,Sammy Davis, Jr.
218
00:08:25,922 --> 00:08:28,466
was just a complete icon
in Vegas.
219
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:30,301
Like, literally,
if he was on the Strip,
220
00:08:30,385 --> 00:08:32,053
he had a sold‐out show.
221
00:08:32,137 --> 00:08:34,097
And then there's Nixon.
[laughs]
222
00:08:34,180 --> 00:08:37,475
‐ Right. I have a Richard Nixon
letter to Sammy Davis, Jr.
223
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:38,810
that I'm hoping to sell today.
224
00:08:38,893 --> 00:08:40,478
And along with the note,I have a picture of them
225
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,147
together in the Oval Office.
226
00:08:42,188 --> 00:08:44,482
I've had it for about a year,
and I'm always trying to buy,
227
00:08:44,566 --> 00:08:46,067
and resell,and get something better.
228
00:08:46,151 --> 00:08:47,819
Because of the historicalsignificance of the letter,
229
00:08:47,902 --> 00:08:50,196
I'm looking forabout 2,500 today.
230
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,657
‐ This is really coolVegas stuff right here.
231
00:08:52,741 --> 00:08:54,617
You into Sammy Davis, Jr. too?
‐ Well, you know,
232
00:08:54,701 --> 00:08:56,119
I was a little bit young
for him,
233
00:08:56,202 --> 00:08:57,579
but I always thought
he was funny growing up.
234
00:08:57,662 --> 00:08:59,080
Didn't know a lot about him.
235
00:08:59,164 --> 00:09:01,166
‐ I mean, he was a comedian,
he was a singer,
236
00:09:01,249 --> 00:09:03,668
he was an actor,
he was an activist,
237
00:09:03,752 --> 00:09:05,920
he was a warm‐up singer
for Frank Sinatra.
238
00:09:06,004 --> 00:09:08,339
Frank Sinatra ended up
becoming big friends,
239
00:09:08,423 --> 00:09:11,176
and eventually,
the Rat Pack was formed
240
00:09:11,259 --> 00:09:12,802
in like, '59 or '60.
241
00:09:12,844 --> 00:09:14,971
‐ This guy had number
one albums, number one movies.
242
00:09:15,055 --> 00:09:17,932
‐ He was such a big part
of the history of this town.
243
00:09:18,016 --> 00:09:19,225
Yeah. He changed Vegas.
244
00:09:19,309 --> 00:09:22,353
‐ Yeah. You know, he basically
ended segregation on the Strip.
245
00:09:22,437 --> 00:09:25,190
‐ Yeah. Back in the early 60s,
if you were black,
246
00:09:25,273 --> 00:09:27,150
you couldn't stay in the hotels
or anything like that.
247
00:09:27,233 --> 00:09:28,318
The black performers‐‐
248
00:09:28,401 --> 00:09:29,861
they wouldn't
even have a dressing room.
249
00:09:29,944 --> 00:09:32,489
‐ But if you wanted
Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin,
250
00:09:32,530 --> 00:09:35,158
Joey Bishop, or Peter Lawford
in your casino,
251
00:09:35,241 --> 00:09:37,243
Sammy was coming,
and you weren't gonna treat him
252
00:09:37,327 --> 00:09:38,661
like anybody different.
253
00:09:38,703 --> 00:09:41,790
‐ This was the great thing
about Sammy Davis, Jr.
254
00:09:41,873 --> 00:09:44,501
He got a lot of flakfor hanging out with Nixon,
255
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:46,086
but he also said,
"Well, how are
256
00:09:46,169 --> 00:09:47,921
we gonna change anything,
if we don't talk to him?"
257
00:09:48,004 --> 00:09:49,798
‐ Right.
‐ And that's what he did.
258
00:09:49,839 --> 00:09:51,299
I mean right here
he's with Nixon,
259
00:09:51,341 --> 00:09:55,095
but years earlier, he waswith Martin Luther King,
260
00:09:55,178 --> 00:09:56,513
on the Civil Rights march.
261
00:09:56,596 --> 00:09:58,348
Just an incredible guy.
262
00:09:58,431 --> 00:10:01,893
Ended up becoming
a superstar worldwide.
263
00:10:01,976 --> 00:10:05,146
‐ So what's up with the letter?
‐ Well, the letter itself
264
00:10:05,188 --> 00:10:07,190
is interesting alone,
but the hand‐written note
265
00:10:07,273 --> 00:10:09,567
at the bottom is what
I think makes it special.
266
00:10:09,651 --> 00:10:11,111
It references
three historic events
267
00:10:11,194 --> 00:10:13,154
that all made headlines
when they happened.
268
00:10:13,238 --> 00:10:14,531
‐ "We shall always remember
269
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:16,199
the night you spent
at the White House."
270
00:10:16,282 --> 00:10:18,910
‐ Which was the first time
a black person had ever slept
271
00:10:18,993 --> 00:10:20,829
in the White House,
as a guest of the president.
272
00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:24,874
‐ Okay. "The 1972 convention
and the POW dinner,
273
00:10:24,958 --> 00:10:27,293
at which you played
an indispensible role."
274
00:10:27,335 --> 00:10:28,711
‐ That was the first
black tie event
275
00:10:28,795 --> 00:10:30,296
ever held at the White House,
276
00:10:30,380 --> 00:10:31,589
and since he mentions
all three,
277
00:10:31,673 --> 00:10:33,925
I think that makes
this letter kind of special.
278
00:10:34,008 --> 00:10:35,844
‐ It's pretty amazingwhat you got here.
279
00:10:35,927 --> 00:10:37,470
How much do you want for this?
280
00:10:37,554 --> 00:10:38,972
‐ 2,500.
‐ Okay.
281
00:10:39,055 --> 00:10:40,640
Do you mind if I have
it checked out by somebody?
282
00:10:40,682 --> 00:10:42,058
‐ No. Absolutely. Go ahead.
‐ Okay.
283
00:10:42,142 --> 00:10:44,018
I just want to make sure this
wasn't done by his secretary.
284
00:10:44,102 --> 00:10:45,603
It's not autopen
on the signature,
285
00:10:45,687 --> 00:10:46,980
or anything else like that.
286
00:10:47,021 --> 00:10:48,648
So let me get
my autograph expert,
287
00:10:48,731 --> 00:10:50,024
and we'll have him
check it out, okay?
288
00:10:50,108 --> 00:10:51,860
‐ Sounds good.
‐ Give me a few minutes.
289
00:10:51,943 --> 00:10:53,278
‐ You know, I'm certainthe letter's real,
290
00:10:53,361 --> 00:10:54,696
but I more than welcome them
to bring in an expert.
291
00:10:54,779 --> 00:10:59,159
I'm curious
to what he has to say.
292
00:10:59,242 --> 00:11:02,662
‐ Let's take it out, here.
Ooh. That's nice.
293
00:11:02,704 --> 00:11:04,747
that she says isfrom an elephant bird.
294
00:11:04,873 --> 00:11:06,749
I know nothing
about this thing,
295
00:11:06,875 --> 00:11:08,126
so I've called in Andre,
296
00:11:08,209 --> 00:11:13,506
my paleontologist friend,
to "eggs‐amine" it. [laughs]
297
00:11:13,590 --> 00:11:15,425
‐ Wow. Elephant bird.
298
00:11:15,508 --> 00:11:16,718
‐ That's what she says.
299
00:11:16,801 --> 00:11:18,803
‐ May I?
‐ Absolutely.
300
00:11:18,887 --> 00:11:21,890
‐ Wow. These are pretty rare.
301
00:11:22,015 --> 00:11:23,725
They're often fake,
too, though.
302
00:11:23,808 --> 00:11:25,143
These fossils are often faked,
303
00:11:25,185 --> 00:11:26,853
because they are rare
and valuable.
304
00:11:26,936 --> 00:11:28,855
Porcelain is somethingthat's easily fake‐able
305
00:11:28,938 --> 00:11:30,732
with these types of eggshells.
They're large.
306
00:11:30,815 --> 00:11:33,318
They're heavy, and that's
a material that can pass,
307
00:11:33,359 --> 00:11:34,861
to a lot of untrained eyes.
308
00:11:34,944 --> 00:11:38,448
So elephant birds could get up
to 10 feet tall and weigh
309
00:11:38,531 --> 00:11:40,033
as much as 1,600 pounds,
310
00:11:40,158 --> 00:11:43,244
so obviously they laid
a big egg.
311
00:11:43,328 --> 00:11:44,329
This is actually one of
312
00:11:44,412 --> 00:11:46,039
the larger eggsthat I've seen.
313
00:11:46,164 --> 00:11:48,291
Some are smaller,
but this is well within range
314
00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:50,501
of what we would expect to see
for an elephant bird.
315
00:11:50,585 --> 00:11:53,963
‐ Okay, so is it real?
‐ It looks real,
316
00:11:54,047 --> 00:11:55,715
but we need to take
a closer look.
317
00:11:55,798 --> 00:11:57,342
‐ Okay.
‐ I'd like to take a look
318
00:11:57,425 --> 00:11:59,177
at the surface texture.
319
00:11:59,260 --> 00:12:01,804
This lens is gonna tell us
all we need to know
320
00:12:01,888 --> 00:12:03,306
about the surface of the shell.
321
00:12:03,389 --> 00:12:06,392
Let's see here.
322
00:12:06,476 --> 00:12:08,061
Wow. There it is, Rick.
323
00:12:08,144 --> 00:12:10,480
See those long grooves
in the shell right there?
324
00:12:10,521 --> 00:12:13,775
That's what we would expect
to see from an elephant bird.
325
00:12:13,858 --> 00:12:15,985
‐ Okay, so we have an actual
elephant bird egg.
326
00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:17,320
‐ Yay!
‐ We do have an actual
327
00:12:17,403 --> 00:12:18,738
elephant bird egg.
‐ Okay.
328
00:12:18,821 --> 00:12:20,823
‐ It is a composite.
Who knows how many
329
00:12:20,907 --> 00:12:22,700
different eggs
this thing is made of?
330
00:12:22,825 --> 00:12:24,494
But there is some condition
issues
331
00:12:24,535 --> 00:12:25,828
that I'd like to point out.
332
00:12:25,912 --> 00:12:28,581
All of these abrasions
here‐‐that's where
333
00:12:28,706 --> 00:12:31,542
the pieces
didn't quite fit together.
334
00:12:31,626 --> 00:12:33,378
So rather than taking
the time
335
00:12:33,461 --> 00:12:35,004
to find pieces that fit better,
336
00:12:35,088 --> 00:12:36,965
they just kind of ground
'em into place.
337
00:12:37,006 --> 00:12:38,633
That's really gonna
affect the value.
338
00:12:38,716 --> 00:12:42,095
‐ So tell me, is it worth
elephant load of cash?
339
00:12:42,178 --> 00:12:45,765
‐ I would appraise this egg...
$5,900
340
00:12:45,848 --> 00:12:48,893
I think is a fair appraisal
of the specimen.

I'll give you $2,800 for it.

him to take a look at 'em,
663
00:25:33,699 --> 00:25:37,036
verify everything,
and then we'll talk numbers.
664
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,496
‐ It's absolutely normal.
Please take your time.
665
00:25:39,538 --> 00:25:41,248
‐ Okay.
Give me just a few moments.
666
00:25:41,331 --> 00:25:43,333
‐ Sure.
667
00:25:43,876 --> 00:25:47,254
‐ 900,000 is detonating
my brain right now.
668
00:25:47,337 --> 00:25:51,717
[laughs]
669
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,094
‐ I've never seen you
speechless.
670
00:25:54,178 --> 00:25:57,347
It's ornate, it's shiny,and it's really sharp,
671
00:25:57,431 --> 00:25:58,974
but he's asking
40 grand for it.
672
00:25:59,016 --> 00:26:01,727
It could be worth that,but there's a few red flags.
673
00:26:01,810 --> 00:26:03,979
Alex is here to bemy second opinion,
674
00:26:04,021 --> 00:26:05,481
and if it all works out,
675
00:26:05,564 --> 00:26:07,983
hopefully I'll be slicing
my way through a deal.
676
00:26:08,067 --> 00:26:08,984
It's not the Holy Grail,
677
00:26:09,026 --> 00:26:11,236
but this thing
is pretty mysterious.
678
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,656
‐ Wow. I know this sword.
‐ At least one of us does.
679
00:26:14,698 --> 00:26:17,326
‐ Well, this is actually
‐‐it's, like,
680
00:26:17,409 --> 00:26:19,536
a historically significant
sword.
681
00:26:19,620 --> 00:26:20,996
‐ Oh.
‐ Really?
682
00:26:21,038 --> 00:26:23,040
‐ Do you mind if I touch it?
‐ Go for it. Yeah, yeah.
683
00:26:23,123 --> 00:26:25,834
‐ Um‐‐oh, my gosh.
684
00:26:25,918 --> 00:26:30,380
Yep, so this sword belonged
to a Russian prince.
685
00:26:30,464 --> 00:26:34,259
That name‐‐
Ivan Ivanovich Odoevsky‐‐
686
00:26:34,343 --> 00:26:35,427
he was a hussar,
687
00:26:35,511 --> 00:26:37,471
and he was killed
at the Battle of Brienne
688
00:26:37,554 --> 00:26:41,850
in France, in January 1814
by Napoleon's troops.
689
00:26:41,934 --> 00:26:43,769
‐ Wow.
‐ He was a war hero,
690
00:26:43,852 --> 00:26:47,106
and this guy gets killed
with this sword on him.
691
00:26:47,189 --> 00:26:50,317
‐ Whoa.
‐ So‐‐ohh‐‐
692
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:51,693
‐ That's what
I was confused about.
693
00:26:51,777 --> 00:26:53,862
It has an Arabic mark
on the blade.
694
00:26:53,946 --> 00:26:57,324
‐ Yeah. This Arabic writing
means it came out of Persia,
695
00:26:57,407 --> 00:26:58,992
which wouldn't be
uncommon for this.
696
00:26:59,076 --> 00:27:01,662
So this was built
with the intention of being,
697
00:27:01,745 --> 00:27:03,038
like, a head of state's sword,
698
00:27:03,122 --> 00:27:04,540
because this is
about the finest blade
699
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:05,791
you can put on it.
700
00:27:05,874 --> 00:27:07,292
And I mean this thing
is massive,
701
00:27:07,376 --> 00:27:09,294
and you can hold it
and feel like‐‐
702
00:27:09,336 --> 00:27:10,629
‐ It's got some weight to it.
703
00:27:10,671 --> 00:27:12,172
‐ Yeah, and it's
well‐balanced, so‐‐
704
00:27:12,256 --> 00:27:13,799
‐ It'll definitely take
an arm off. That's for sure.
705
00:27:13,841 --> 00:27:16,301
‐ This was not just
a ceremonial sword.
706
00:27:16,385 --> 00:27:18,220
This was also a battle sword.
‐ Mm.
707
00:27:18,303 --> 00:27:19,847
‐ But it does have a ceremonial
feel to it, right?
708
00:27:19,930 --> 00:27:21,431
‐ Oh, you're completely right.
709
00:27:21,515 --> 00:27:23,559
It's about as fancy
as they come.
710
00:27:23,642 --> 00:27:26,061
[sighs]
I mean, it's beautiful.
711
00:27:26,145 --> 00:27:28,730
I mean, it's really second
to none, and the only‐‐
712
00:27:28,814 --> 00:27:30,399
‐ I've never
seen you speechless.
713
00:27:30,482 --> 00:27:32,734
‐ I‐‐it's just, you know,
you hear about these things.
714
00:27:32,818 --> 00:27:33,735
You never really think
you're gonna,
715
00:27:33,819 --> 00:27:36,780
like, walk in and see it,
um‐‐
716
00:27:36,864 --> 00:27:38,657
‐ What kind of value do you
think this has?
717
00:27:38,740 --> 00:27:40,409
‐ So here's the thing.
718
00:27:40,492 --> 00:27:44,496
This sword sold at auction
for $30,000, and frankly,
719
00:27:44,538 --> 00:27:46,039
the sword undersold.
720
00:27:46,123 --> 00:27:48,167
Now, the funny thing
about the auction is
721
00:27:48,208 --> 00:27:49,877
it wasn't the right auction
to put it in,
722
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,671
and so the collecting community
didn't actually know
723
00:27:52,754 --> 00:27:55,716
that this was out there,
until after it was sold.
724
00:27:55,799 --> 00:27:57,843
If you take it
to auction today,
725
00:27:57,926 --> 00:28:00,137
and get it
in front of the right buyers,
726
00:28:00,220 --> 00:28:04,975
I would imagine you're talking
75,000, 100,000.
727
00:28:05,058 --> 00:28:07,811
‐ Well, I think that's all
I needed to hear.
728
00:28:07,853 --> 00:28:09,438
‐ All right. That was a lot.
‐ Thanks for coming down.
729
00:28:09,521 --> 00:28:10,731
‐ Thank you for
letting me see it.
730
00:28:10,814 --> 00:28:12,316
‐ Thank you.
Of course, of course. Yeah.
731
00:28:12,399 --> 00:28:14,484
‐ All right.
It's a lot to take in.
732
00:28:14,526 --> 00:28:17,237
‐ Mm‐hmm. It is.
‐ So for me
733
00:28:17,321 --> 00:28:20,449
to be in this sword
anywhere comfortable,
734
00:28:20,532 --> 00:28:22,242
I'd buy it for 20,000.
735
00:28:22,326 --> 00:28:24,828
‐ [inhales] Yeah.
736
00:28:24,870 --> 00:28:27,164
I don't know about that. Yeah.
737
00:28:27,247 --> 00:28:29,750
‐ The problem is it's too big
of a risk for me.
738
00:28:29,833 --> 00:28:31,627
‐ Right.
‐ I'd love to offer you 50,000
739
00:28:31,710 --> 00:28:33,128
for this sword,
possibly even more,
740
00:28:33,170 --> 00:28:35,756
but it's already sold once
in an open market,
741
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:37,090
and it didn't come
anywhere close
742
00:28:37,174 --> 00:28:38,508
to the reserve
it was expecting.
743
00:28:38,592 --> 00:28:39,676
‐ Right, right.
‐ So it's just
744
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,970
a dangerous territory for me.
‐ Yeah.
745
00:28:42,012 --> 00:28:43,430
I‐‐I don't know
if I can do that,
746
00:28:43,513 --> 00:28:44,890
especially
after what he just said.
747
00:28:44,973 --> 00:28:46,600
‐ I don't blame you, man.
‐ Now, it makes me think
748
00:28:46,683 --> 00:28:48,685
that I should find
the right auction for it.
749
00:28:48,769 --> 00:28:50,145
‐ All right.
Well, thanks for coming in.
750
00:28:50,187 --> 00:28:51,647
‐ Thanks, man. I appreciate it.
‐ Have a good day.
751
00:28:51,688 --> 00:28:53,273
‐ You too. Thank you.
752
00:28:53,357 --> 00:28:55,984
After knowing the actual valueon the sword,
753
00:28:56,026 --> 00:28:57,903
kinda glad I didn't sell it,
and I think, now,
754
00:28:57,986 --> 00:29:00,322
I'm going to try to find
the proper auction.
755
00:29:00,405 --> 00:29:02,908
And hopefully, I can put itin front of the right people,
756
00:29:02,991 --> 00:29:04,952
to get a better price for it.
757
00:29:05,035 --> 00:29:10,791
♪ ♪
758
00:29:10,874 --> 00:29:12,000
‐ So I'm here in London,
759
00:29:12,084 --> 00:29:13,919
and I'm lookingat some Banksy art.
760
00:29:14,002 --> 00:29:16,630
One of 'em isa one‐of‐a‐kind original
761
00:29:16,713 --> 00:29:18,215
called "Monkey Detonator."
762
00:29:18,298 --> 00:29:20,717
The other one is a limitededition print called
763
00:29:20,801 --> 00:29:21,969
"Welcome to Hell."
764
00:29:22,052 --> 00:29:23,512
The representativefor the seller
765
00:29:23,595 --> 00:29:28,016
wants approximately $920,000,
766
00:29:28,100 --> 00:29:30,143
so Chad,
my art expert in Vegas,
767
00:29:30,227 --> 00:29:33,313
has hooked me up with a guynamed Oliver, here in London,
768
00:29:33,397 --> 00:29:36,024
who is an expert in street artand graffiti art.
769
00:29:36,108 --> 00:29:38,151
He's gonna tell me
if there's a deal to be made
770
00:29:38,235 --> 00:29:41,154
or if this entire thing
is gonna detonate in my face.
771
00:29:41,238 --> 00:29:43,490
This is the Banksy.
‐ Wow. Amazing.
772
00:29:43,532 --> 00:29:44,866
Let me take a closer look.
773
00:29:44,950 --> 00:29:46,660
So this isthe "Monkey Detonator,"
774
00:29:46,743 --> 00:29:49,162
and easily identifiableas a Banksy,
775
00:29:49,246 --> 00:29:51,957
just from the overspray.
You see how he sprays,
776
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:52,833
and there'sslight blurred lines.
777
00:29:52,916 --> 00:29:54,042
‐ Yeah. I mean,
778
00:29:54,126 --> 00:29:56,086
it screams Banksy.‐ Absolutely.
779
00:29:56,169 --> 00:29:57,546
‐ So what do youthink about it?
780
00:29:57,629 --> 00:29:58,922
‐ It's an important
work by him,
781
00:29:59,006 --> 00:30:00,465
and it's obviously
an early work by him,
782
00:30:00,507 --> 00:30:03,635
but Banksy was painting way
back in the late 90s,
783
00:30:03,677 --> 00:30:04,928
on the street quite early,
in Bristol
784
00:30:05,012 --> 00:30:05,971
and organizing events.
785
00:30:06,054 --> 00:30:07,055
And then he came up to London,
786
00:30:07,139 --> 00:30:09,558
and that's really
when‐‐2000, 2001
787
00:30:09,641 --> 00:30:12,144
when his notoriety
started to rise.
788
00:30:12,185 --> 00:30:14,271
‐ So what do you think
of this one?
789
00:30:14,354 --> 00:30:17,316
‐ I‐‐I mean Banksy's rats
are his signature,
790
00:30:17,399 --> 00:30:19,401
but I think this is oneof the special ones, for me.
791
00:30:19,484 --> 00:30:21,737
‐ Yeah. I do believe it's,like, quintessential Banksy.
792
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:23,196
‐ "Quintessential"
is the right word. Yeah.
793
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,240
‐ I just wanna make sure
I'm buying legit stuff,
794
00:30:25,324 --> 00:30:26,658
and I'm buying it
at the right price.
795
00:30:26,742 --> 00:30:28,994
‐ Sure. I understand you.
‐ So are they legit?
796
00:30:29,036 --> 00:30:30,203
‐ I'll need to check
the certificates,
797
00:30:30,287 --> 00:30:31,747
and I see we have
one certificate here,
798
00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:33,040
for this print?
‐ Yes.
799
00:30:33,123 --> 00:30:34,291
‐ The one thing is
that we're very lucky
800
00:30:34,374 --> 00:30:35,667
that Banksy
invented this system,
801
00:30:35,751 --> 00:30:36,835
so we can check that
with Pest Control,
802
00:30:36,918 --> 00:30:38,295
to knowing it's a real McCoy.
803
00:30:38,378 --> 00:30:39,463
‐ Okay.
804
00:30:39,546 --> 00:30:40,714
‐ So I can tell
from the certificate
805
00:30:40,797 --> 00:30:42,132
and by certain
security features
806
00:30:42,174 --> 00:30:43,759
that this is
a legitimate Banksy.
807
00:30:43,842 --> 00:30:44,801
‐ Cool.
808
00:30:44,885 --> 00:30:45,969
‐ And do you have
the certificate
809
00:30:46,011 --> 00:30:47,346
for the original, as well?
‐ Yes.
810
00:30:47,429 --> 00:30:50,599
The owner is currently
traveling on a business trip,
811
00:30:50,682 --> 00:30:52,809
and we can send you
the certificate.
812
00:30:52,851 --> 00:30:54,269
‐ Okay, and the process of me
813
00:30:54,353 --> 00:30:55,896
checking that
would take 24 hours.
814
00:30:55,979 --> 00:30:57,689
‐ So if I make a deal,
815
00:30:57,773 --> 00:30:59,191
you can get them
all checked out,
816
00:30:59,274 --> 00:31:02,152
and we can just broker the
entire thing through your shop.
817
00:31:02,235 --> 00:31:04,529
‐ Would be a pleasure
‐ All right. The big question:
818
00:31:04,613 --> 00:31:05,906
What are they worth?
819
00:31:05,989 --> 00:31:07,616
‐ I would see this piece,
the "Monkey Detonator,"
820
00:31:07,699 --> 00:31:11,828
on a good day in auction,
achieving 900,000, maybe more.
821
00:31:11,870 --> 00:31:13,372
‐ Pounds?
‐ Pounds.
822
00:31:13,455 --> 00:31:16,041
‐ So £900,000 is a smidgen
more than $1 million.
823
00:31:16,124 --> 00:31:17,376
‐ Indeed.
824
00:31:17,459 --> 00:31:21,213
‐ And what does this go for?
‐ Recent auction results,
825
00:31:21,296 --> 00:31:23,965
we've seen thisprint achieve £16,000.
826
00:31:24,007 --> 00:31:27,594
‐ So that's around
119,000 American.
827
00:31:27,677 --> 00:31:28,804
Right around that?
‐ Yeah. Thereabouts.
828
00:31:28,845 --> 00:31:31,139
‐ Okay. All right.

996
00:38:34,521 --> 00:38:37,190
‐ I believe it is,
but a regular chair
997
00:38:37,273 --> 00:38:40,443
would be too big
for this machine.
998
00:38:40,527 --> 00:38:41,903
‐ I don't see any screws in it
which probably means it was
999
00:38:41,986 --> 00:38:44,322
just made with joints and glue
which is pretty good.
1000
00:38:44,364 --> 00:38:46,574
You know,
it takes a master wood maker
1001
00:38:46,658 --> 00:38:48,535
to make something like that.
‐ Yeah.
1002
00:38:48,618 --> 00:38:50,078
‐ What are you looking
to do with it?
1003
00:38:50,161 --> 00:38:51,704
‐ Well, I'm looking to sell it.
1004
00:38:51,788 --> 00:38:54,749

‐ I'm asking you$1,000 for this.
1007
00:38:58,378 --> 00:38:59,712
‐ Okay. It would be hard
1008
00:38:59,796 --> 00:39:02,090
for me to sell at that price,
you know?
1009
00:39:02,173 --> 00:39:07,262
I probably could
offer you about 250.
1010
00:39:07,345 --> 00:39:10,098

that they made very few

of the children's versions.
1012
00:39:11,850 --> 00:39:13,810
‐ And I do agree with you.
I just couldn't get you
1013
00:39:13,852 --> 00:39:15,937
anywhere close to the 1,000
that you're looking for.

What's your bottom dollar
on it?
1015

‐ Well, I would consider 500.
1016
00:39:23,570 --> 00:39:25,238
‐ Although I'm sure
it's worth 500
1017

and maybe even a little more,
1018
00:39:27,031 --> 00:39:28,908
it's just‐‐that's gonna be
a little too much for me.
1019

It's just kind of outside
of my comfort zone.

‐ Will you even split
the difference with me?

‐ I'll go 325.
That could be absolute‐‐
1022

The only way to have
an authentic Banksy
1066

is cut a piece of graffiti
out of a wall, and hang it up,
