Pawn Stars (2009–…): Season 3, Episode 9 - Hello Nurse - full transcript

- I'VE GOT SOME WORLD
WAR Il MEMORABILIA.

MY GREAT-UNCLE STOLE THIS
FROM HITLER'S SUMMER HOME.

- THIS IS HITLER'S
PERSONAL STUFF.

- YEAH.
- YOUR UNCLE WAS A BADASS.

- THIS WALKING STICK, IT
GOES BACK TO THE CIVIL WAR.

- AND THIS SAYS...
- "ABRAHAM LINCOLN."

- WHAT THE HELL, RICK?

- IF THIS IS REAL, IT
COULD BE WORTH A TON.

WHAT DO WE GOT HERE?
- THIS IS A RIFLE.

I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

- IT'S A KENTUCKY LONG RIFLE.



IF EVERYTHING CHECKS
OUT WITH THIS THING,

THIS GUN WAS USED
IN THE CIVIL WAR.

- WOW, THAT'S CRAZY.

- I'M RICK HARRISON, AND
THIS IS MY PAWN SHOP.

I WORK HERE WITH MY OLD
MAN AND MY SON, BIG HOSS.

EVERYTHING IN HERE
HAS A STORY AND A PRICE.

ONE THING I'VE
LEARNED AFTER 21 YEARS,

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT IS
GONNA COME THROUGH THAT DOOR.

HEY, WHAT DO WE GOT HERE?

- THIS IS A RIFLE.

I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT,

BUT IT'S REALLY HEAVY,
AND IT LOOKS REALLY OLD.

OKAY.

WHAT IT IS, IS IT'S A
KENTUCKY LONG RIFLE.



- KENTUCKY? HOW'D IT GET HERE?

I CAME DOWN TO THE
PAWN SHOP TODAY

TO TRY AND SELL THIS
ANTIQUE RIFLE I HAVE.

I KNOW IT'S HEAVY.

IT'S OBVIOUSLY GOT
A LOT OF STEEL ON IT

AND SOME PRETTY OLD AND
AUTHENTIC-LOOKING WOOD.

IF I COULD GET, YOU
KNOW, $1,000, $2,000,

I'D PROBABLY BE
PRETTY HAPPY SELLING IT.

- YOU EVER SEE,
LIKE, THE OLD MOVIES

WITH DANIEL BOONE
AND ALL THOSE GUYS?

THIS WAS THE KIND
OF RIFLE THEY HAD:

REALLY, REALLY,
REALLY LONG BARREL,

REALLY THIN STOCK ON IT.

THIS IS WHAT THE GUYS
USED IN THE CIVIL WAR,

AT LEAST IN THE SOUTH.

THE LONG RIFLE WAS DEVELOPED
ON THE AMERICAN FRONTIER

IN THE MID-1700s.

THEY WERE THE GUN OF CHOICE

IN THE APPALACHIAN
MOUNTAIN REGION.

THE LONGER BARREL MADE
THEM MUCH MORE ACCURATE,

SO AT 200 YARDS,
THEY WERE DEADLY.

IF EVERYTHING CHECKS
OUT WITH THIS THING,

THIS GUN WAS USED
IN THE CIVIL WAR.

- WOW, THAT'S CRAZY.

- I MEAN, THE POWDER
BURNS RIGHT HERE

ARE TELLING ME IT'S OLD.

EVERYTHING LOOKS LEGIT ON IT.

THIS RIGHT HERE IS WHERE
THEY KEPT THE PATCHES.

YOU'D POUR GUNPOWDER
DOWN IT, OKAY,

THEN YOU'D PUT A PATCH DOWN IT,

SORT OF SEAL THE
GUNPOWDER IN THERE,

AND THEN YOU WOULD
PUT A BALL DOWN THERE.

- RIGHT, I KNOW THE BALL,

BUT I DIDN'T KNOW
ABOUT THE PATCH.

- IF THIS GUN IS REAL
AND FROM THE CIVIL WAR,

IT COULD BE WORTH A TON,

BUT THERE'S SO MANY FAKES
AND REPRODUCTIONS OUT THERE,

I HAVE TO BE SURE.

THERE'S A FEW LITTLE WEIRD
CONCERNS I HAVE ABOUT IT.

FIRST OFF, I THINK THIS
HAS BEEN REPLACED.

YOU KNOW, FOR BEING THIS
OLD, I'M ASSUMING THIS WOOD

SHOULD BE IN A LOT WORSE SHAPE.

I HAVE MY DOUBTS ON THIS ROD,

SEEING AS HOW IT'S
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

IT'S NOT FINISHED OR
ANYTHING ELSE LIKE THAT.

IT LOOKS LIKE A REPLACEMENT.

SO DID YOU WANT TO SELL THIS?

- YEAH, I WILL. ABSOLUTELY.

- BEFORE I MAKE AN OFFER ON IT,

I WANT AN EXPERT
TO COME IN HERE,

AND I WANT HIM TO
TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT.

I WANT HIM TO
TELL ME IF IT'LL FIRE,

'CAUSE THAT'S GONNA
MAKE IT WORTH MORE MONEY.

- OF COURSE.
- SO I'LL CALL MY BUDDY IN.

AND WE'LL SEE WHAT WE CAN DO.

- GREAT. THANK YOU.
- OKAY.

- I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD
TO THE EXPERT COMING DOWN

AND TELLING ME ABOUT THE GUN,

JUST BECAUSE I'M
REALLY EXCITED TO SEE

IF THERE'S ANY REAL VALUE TO IT.

- HEY, WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH?

- I'VE GOT SOME WORLD
WAR Il MEMORABILIA.

STERLING SILVER FINGER
BOWL AND FINGER PLATE.

- OKAY.

WHERE IN THE WORLD
DID YOU GET THESE?

- MY GREAT-UNCLE
SERVED IN WORLD WAR Il,

AND THE STORY IS THAT
HE GOT THESE PLATES

FROM HITLER'S SUMMER HOME.

I DECIDED TO COME TO
THE PAWN SHOP TODAY

TO TRY TO SELL MY
WORLD WAR Il NAZI PLATES.

MY GREAT-UNCLE
WAS IN WORLD WAR Il.

THE FAMILY STORY IS THAT THEY
CAME FROM HITLER'S SUMMER HOME.

IF THEY DID COME FROM THERE,

I THINK THEY WOULD BE
WORTH A LOT OF MONEY.

- THE EAGLE'S NEST?
- WHAT'S THE EAGLE'S NEST?

- IT'S SOME BIG, GIANT,
RIDICULOUS HOUSE

THAT HITLER HAD BUILT FOR
HIM FOR HIS 50TH BIRTHDAY.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT
DIVISION HE WAS IN

OR ANYTHING ELSE LIKE THAT?

- I DO HAVE SOME PAPERWORK.

- OKAY, LET ME SEE WHAT YOU GOT.

- HIS NAME'S JACK LUTHER.

HE WAS IN D-DAY.

HE WAS IN THE
BATTLE OF THE BULGE.

HE WAS WOUNDED FIVE TIMES.

THE FOURTH TIME, HE
WAS IN THE HOSPITAL

AND ESCAPED TO GO
BACK WITH HIS TROOPS.

- SILVER STAR, PURPLE HEART.

- YOUR UNCLE WAS A BADASS.

- YEAH, I'D HAVE TO
AGREE WITH THAT.

- YOU SHOULD JOIN
THE MILITARY, CHUM.

- THAT'S THE FUNNIEST THING
I'VE EVER HEARD YOU SAY.

- THIS GUY FOUGHT IN SOME

OF THE MOST VICIOUS
BATTLES OF WORLD WAR Il.

THE FACT THAT THIS GUY
WAS INJURED FIVE TIMES

AND CONTINUED TO FIGHT

MAKES HIM A REAL WAR HERO.

FIRST OFF, JUST SO YOU KNOW,
THIS IS NOT A FINGER BOWL.

THIS IS JUST A REGULAR,
LIKE, SMALL FRUIT BOWL

OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

THESE TWO DON'T
GO WITH EACH OTHER.

THEY'RE BY COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT MANUFACTURERS.

THAT RIGHT THERE IS THE MAKER,

AND THAT LITTLE TEENY
STAMP IN FRONT OF IT

IS THE QUALITY OF THE SILVER.

- OKAY.

- DURING WORLD WAR Il,
YOU COULD TAKE A WAR PRIZE,

AND IF THERE WAS
ANYTHING OF VALUE

THEY COULD BRING HOME, THEY DID,

BECAUSE NO ONE WAS GONNA FROWN
ON STEALING STUFF FROM HITLER.

THE 100ST AIRBORNE
RAIDED THE EAGLE'S NEST.

FROM WHO YOUR UNCLE WAS,

HE WASN'T ONE OF THE FIRST GUYS
ON THE GROUND GOING IN THERE.

HE GOT THIS SOMEWHERE,

BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S
WHERE IT CAME FROM.

AND ALL OF HITLER'S
PERSONAL STUFF,

HE HAD ENGRAVED
WITH HIS INITIALS.

I NORMALLY DON'T DEAL
IN THIS KIND OF STUFF.

IT JUST GIVES ME THE CREEPS.
- YEAH, I AGREE.

- THIS GIVES YOU BAD MOJO.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

SO I THINK I'M GONNA PASS.

- YEAH, I UNDERSTAND.

- THERE'S CERTAIN THINGS
I DON'T LIKE TO DEAL WITH,

AND NAZI MEMORABILIA
IS ONE OF THEM.

IT'S NOT ILLEGAL. IT JUST
GIVES ME THE CREEPS.

THANKS FOR COMING
IN, THOUGH, MAN.

- I'M DISAPPOINTED WE
COULDN'T GET A DEAL DONE,

BUT I LEARNED A LITTLE BIT
MORE ABOUT THESE PLATES,

AND I THINK THAT'S
SATISFACTION ENOUGH FOR ME.

- HEY, WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH?

- I GOT AN 1899 WALKING STICK.

BELONGED TO MAJOR
JOHN BITTINGER.

- WELL, AT LEAST THE
GUY WASN'T TOO SHORT.

- I DECIDED TO COME
TO THE PAWN SHOP

TO SELL MY 110-YEAR-OLD
IRISH WALKING STICK.

IT'S PRETTY RARE TO FIND
ONE SO OLD IN THE U.S.

I PAID $100 FOR IT.

IF I COULD DOUBLE MY MONEY,
I'D BE REAL HAPPY WITH THAT.

- SO THIS IS AN
IRISH WALKING STICK?

- YEP, IT'S FROM THE
BLACKTHORN TREE.

THESE, BRAND-NEW,
GO FOR ABOUT $100,

LET ALONE A 110-YEAR-OLD ONE.

- WALKING STICKS HAVE
PROBABLY BEEN AROUND

SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME,

BUT STARTING IN
THE 16TH CENTURY,

THEY BECAME A FASHION
STATEMENT FOR THE WEALTHY.

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN LOVED
HIS WALKING STICK SO MUCH

THAT WHEN HE DIED, HE WILLED
IT TO GEORGE WASHINGTON,

AND IT'S NOW IN THE SMITHSONIAN.

SO WALKING STICKS
TIED TO FAMOUS PEOPLE

CAN BE REALLY VALUABLE.

- IT'S GOT THIS
BATTLE CRY ON IT.

IT GOES BACK TO
THE IRISH REGIMENT

IN THE CIVIL WAR.

IT'S "FAUGH A BALLAGH."

- "FAUGH A BALLAGH"?

- IT'S, LIKE, "HERE WE GO."

IT WAS ORIGINALLY OWNED
BY MAJOR JOHN BITTINGER,

WHO WAS A CLOSE FRIEND
OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

- OKAY.

- HE APPOINTED HIM POSTMASTER
OF ST. JOSEPH, MISSOURI.

- YOU EVER HEARD OF BITTINGER?

- NO.

- THIS IS SOME PAPERWORK ON IT?
- YEP.

HE MET ABRAHAM LINCOLN
WHEN HE WAS 19 YEARS OF AGE.

HE WAS ONE OF HIS
FIRST THREE APPOINTEES.

IN BOOKS ABOUT ABRAHAM LINCOLN,

YOU'LL ALWAYS FIND
MAJOR JOHN BITTINGER.

- AND THIS SAYS,
"MAJOR J.L. BITTINGER,

MONTREAL, 1899."

- IN 1897, PRESIDENT MCKINLEY

MADE HIM U.S. CONSUL
GENERAL OF MONTREAL.

- BITTINGER ISN'T EXACTLY
A HOUSEHOLD NAME,

BUT HE DID KNOW TWO
PRESIDENTS: LINCOLN AND MCKINLEY.

EVEN THOUGH THIS IS DATED 30
YEARS AFTER LINCOLN'S DEATH,

IT'S STILL PRETTY COOL.

SO WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?

DO YOU WANT TO
PAWN THIS OR SELL IT?

- I'D LIKE TO SELL IT.

- AND HOW MUCH
DID YOU WANT FOR IT?

- I'D LIKE TO GET $400.

- I'LL GIVE YOU
200 BUCKS FOR IT.

- UH... NO.

$300.

IT'S A PRETTY UNIQUE
PART OF AMERICAN HISTORY.

- THAT'S WHY I'M OFFERING
YOU THE 200 BUCKS.

I STILL HAVE TO SELL IT, AND...

- KEEP GIVING TILL IT HURTS.

IT'S BEGINNING TO HURT.

- WHAT THE HELL, RICK? GO AHEAD.

- GIVE AWAY YOUR
MONEY, NOT MINE.

I'LL GIVE YOU 200 BUCKS.

- $250.

- ALL RIGHT, $225.

- $250. WE'LL HAVE A DEAL.

- UM...

YEAH, I'LL GIVE YOU $250.
- ALL RIGHT.

- ALL RIGHT, YOU
WANT TO WRITE HIM UP?

- NO.
- OH, YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO
USE THE COMPUTERS, DO YOU?

- NO.

- I CAME HERE TO GET A
FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS.

I GOT THAT. I'M PRETTY
HAPPY WITH THE DEAL.

- 250 BUCKS MIGHT SOUND
LIKE A LOT FOR A STICK,

BUT I'M GLAD I BOUGHT IT,

AND EVEN IF IT ISN'T TIED
TO A FAMOUS PERSON,

I CAN STILL SELL
IT TO A COLLECTOR

FOR A DECENT PROFIT.

- HERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS - EARLIER, I HAD
A GUY COME IN WITH A KENTUCKY LONG RIFLE.

I HAD SOME CONCERNS THAT
A FEW THINGS WERE REPLACED,

SO I CALLED MY BUDDY SEAN TO
COME DOWN AND CHECK IT OUT.

HEY, SEAN. WHAT'S UP?

- HOW'S IT GOING, RICK?
- GOOD, MAN.

- GOOD TO SEE YOU.
HOW YOU DOING?

- SCOTT. HOW YOU DOING?

NICE TO MEET YOU.
- NICE TO MEET YOU.

MY NAME IS SEAN RICH.

I OWN TORTUGA TRADING,

AND I'M A SPECIALIST IN
ANTIQUE ARMS AND ARMOR.

WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE
A KENTUCKY RIFLE.

SO, RICK, WHAT
QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE?

- WELL, FIRST OFF, IS IT
REAL? WHAT'S IT WORTH?

AND HOW OLD IS IT?

- WELL, HERE'S SOME
GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS.

THE BAD NEWS FIRST IS THAT
IT'S BEEN BROKEN AND REPAIRED

PROBABLY SEVERAL TIMES.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S
SOME CRACKS IN AREAS.

THIS IS THE MOST COMMON
PLACE THAT IT WOULD CRACK,

AND BECAUSE THIS
BARREL IS SO HEAVY,

THE OWNER PROBABLY JUST
SLAMMED IT ON THE GROUND

A LITTLE TOO HARD,

AND THAT WAS THE
MOST TYPICAL PLACE

THAT IT WOULD CRACK.

DOES THAT AFFECT THE
VALUE? NOT A WHOLE LOT.

- HE THOUGHT THIS MIGHT
NOT HAVE BEEN ORIGINAL ALSO.

I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT IT.

- THAT'S THE THING WITH
RAMRODS WITH ANY GUN:

, THEY GOT LOST:,
THEY GOT REPLACED.

HOWEVER, IT WAS DONE
IN THE CORRECT STYLE.

THEY WOULD A CANDLE
AND TWIST THE DOWEL

AND LET IT BURN.

AS FAR AS THE AGE,

IT WOULD DATE PROBABLY BETWEEN
THE LATE 1840s AND THE 1850s.

THIS WAS RIGHT DURING
THE TURN IN EVOLUTION

FOR THE FIRING MECHANISM
FROM FLINTLOCK TO PERCUSSION.

- SO YOU ACTUALLY THINK
THIS GUN CAN SHOOT AGAIN?

- ABSOLUTELY.

IT JUST NEEDS SOME TLC
AND SOME RESTORATION,

AND I THINK IT'D BE GOOD TO GO.

- SO WHAT DO YOU
THINK IT'S WORTH?

- AS IS, WITHOUT
ANY RESTORATION,

JUST WHAT I'M LOOKING AT,

I'M GONNA SAY, RETAIL...

$1,800 TO MAYBE EVEN $2,800.

JUST UNDER $3,000.
- OKAY.

- YOU KNOW, IT'S A
NICE ORIGINAL GUN.

AND IT'S WORTHY OF
HAVING IT RESTORED.

- THANKS, MAN. I APPRECIATE IT.

- ABSOLUTELY.
- HEY, PLEASURE MEETING YOU.

- TAKE CARE.

IT'S JUST AMAZING TO ME

THAT THESE THINGS
ARE STILL HIDDEN AWAY,

THAT PEOPLE JUST HAVE
NOT FOUND EVERYTHING,

WHICH ACTUALLY GIVES
ME HOPE THAT THIS STUFF

IS STILL OUT THERE
AND UNDISCOVERED.

- SO WHAT DO YOU
REALLY WANT FOR IT,

I MEAN, REALISTICALLY?

- THE EXPERT SAID
THAT HE THOUGHT

IT WAS ANYWHERE
FROM $1,800 TO $2,800.

I'D PAY YOU 1,200 BUCKS FOR IT.

- $1,600?

$1,200.

LISTEN, I'M GONNA BUY
THIS THING OFF YOU.

THEN I'M GONNA HAVE
A GUNSMITH LOOK AT IT.

HE'S GONNA CHARGE ME 100 BUCKS

JUST TO TAKE IT
APART AND LOOK AT IT.

THINGS START SNAPPING, BREAKING,

AND THEN I'M INTO IT EVEN MORE.

- HOW ABOUT $1,400, WE MAKE IT,

AND JUST CALL IT QUITS?

- OKAY, 1,400 BUCKS.
- PERFECT.

GREAT. I APPRECIATE IT.

THE EXPERT DELIVERED,
ACTUALLY, REALLY GOOD NEWS.

IN THIS ECONOMY,

YOU CAN'T GO WRONG GETTING
A LITTLE BIT OF FOUND MONEY.

NOTHING WRONG WITH IT.

- HEY, RICK, DID YOU HEAR ABOUT
THE NIGHT SHIFT LAST NIGHT?

- UNFORTUNATELY, YES.

LATELY, THE OVERNIGHT CREW

HASN'T BEEN PAYING
ATTENTION TO DETAIL,

AND IT'S LOSING US MONEY,

AND IF THERE'S ONE THING
I HATE, IT'S LOSING MONEY.

COREY, CHUM.

ONE OF YOU GUYS IS GONNA
WORK THE NIGHT SHIFT

AND HELP RETRAIN THESE GUYS.

- I LOVE GRAVEYARD.

- SOUNDS LIKE A
PERFECT CHUM JOB TO ME.

- YOU KNOW WHAT, COREY?
YOU'RE WORKING THE GRAVEYARD.

- NO, I'M NOT.

- CHUM'S VOLUNTEERING
RIGHT HERE.

- YOU KNOW WHAT?

I'M GONNA TEACH
PEOPLE THE NIGHT SHIFT.

YOU REALLY WANT
HIM TEACHING PEOPLE?

- WHY CAN'T I TEACH THE NIGHT
SHIFT GUYS DURING THE DAY?

- BECAUSE IT'S NOT REAL
ON-THE-JOB TRAINING

UNLESS YOU DO IT AT NIGHT.

THIS IS.

- THAT'S THE WAY THE
COOKIE CRUMBLES.

- I HATE COOKIES,
AND I HATE YOU.

- SORRY.

- I LOVE COOKIES, AND I
LOVE THE NIGHT SHIFT.

GET OUT OF MY WAY.

- HEY, WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH?

- I HAVE A DOLL HERE
THAT'S A G.I. JOE, ACTUALLY.

IT'S FROM 1967.

- G.I. JOE WASN'T A GIRL.

- WELL, THIS ONE...
- IT'S G.I. JANE.

- WELL, YOU KNOW A
LOT ABOUT DOLLS, BUDDY.

- I DECIDED TO COME TO
THE PAWN SHOP TODAY

TO TRY TO SELL MY
G.I. JOE NURSE DOLL.

IT'S ONE OF THE RAREST G.I.
JOE DOLLS THAT THEY HAVE.

IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE
WORTH A LOT OF MONEY.

AND I ONLY PAID 50 BUCKS FOR IT,

SO I HOPE I DO GOOD.

- ACTUALLY, I'VE NEVER
SEEN ONE OF THESE BEFORE.

- THEY'RE VERY RARE.

SHE'S THE ONLY FEMALE G.I.
JOE DOLL THAT WAS EVER MADE.

- I DON'T IMAGINE THEY
SOLD VERY MANY OF 'EM.

- NO, NOT TOO MANY.

BOYS DIDN'T WANT A NURSE DOLL.

- YEAH, THAT WOULDN'T
HAVE BEEN BIG BACK THEN.

WHERE DID YOU GET IT?

- AN ESTATE SALE.
- OKAY.

G.I. JOE ACTION FIGURES WERE
HUGE IN THE '60s AND THE '70s.

JUST ABOUT EVERY
BOY HAD AT LEAST ONE.

BUT I SOMEHOW DOUBT VERY
MANY HAD THE G.I. JOE NURSE,

SO THIS COULD BE
EXTREMELY VALUABLE.

- DID YOU CUT THE DOLL'S HAIR

TO MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE THAT, OR WAS IT...

- FROM PICTURES I'VE SEEN
OF THE DOLL ORIGINALLY,

THAT'S THE ORIGINAL HAIR.

- ALL RIGHT, AND WHAT DID
YOU WANT TO DO WITH IT?

- WELL, I THINK I
WANT TO SELL IT.

- OKAY, HOW MUCH
DID YOU WANT FOR IT?

- I'D LIKE ABOUT
$2,500 FOR THE DOLL.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS E THING:

I DON'T KNOW ENOUGH
ABOUT THIS THING.

TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I
DON'T EVEN KNOW IF IT'S FAKE,

BUT I HAVE A BUDDY WHO DOES.

HE KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT THESE.

SO IF YOU DON'T MIND,
LET ME CALL HIM UP.

HIS SHOP IS JUST
DOWN THE STREET.

I'M SURE HE'LL RUN RIGHT
DOWN HERE FOR THIS THING.

OKAY?
- THAT SOUNDS GOOD TO ME.

BOYS AT THE TIME WEREN'T
INTERESTED IN THIS DOLL

BECAUSE IT WAS A GIRL DOLL,

BUT NOW IT'S A MUST FOR
ANY G.I. JOE COLLECTOR.

- EARLIER TODAY, I
GOT A CALL FROM A GUY

ABOUT AN OLD GOLF CART.

THE OLD ONES CAN
BE SUPER COLLECTIBLE,

SO ME AND CHUM ARE ON
OUR WAY TO GO CHECK IT OUT.

- SO THIS IS WHY I
CALLED YOU GUYS.

IT'S BEAUTIFUL, ISN'T IT?

- YEAH. THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.

- THE REASON WHY
I CALLED THE GUYS

FROM THE PAWN SHOP TODAY

IS TO COME DOWN AND
LOOK AT MY 1960s GOLF CART.

WHEN I PICKED IT UP, I
WAS HIGHLY INTOXICATED,

RIDING DIRT BIKES IN THE DESERT.

I'M HOPING TO GET
ABOUT $300 FOR IT,

BUT I'LL TAKE 50 BUCKS,

JUST SO MY WIFE
DOESN'T YELL AT ME.

- WHERE IN THE WORLD
DID YOU GET THIS?

- I GOT IT OUT IN THE DESERT.

ME AND MY FRIEND
WERE DIRT-BIKING,

THREW IT IN THE
BACK OF MY TRUCK.

THOUGHT I COULD RESTORE IT,

BUT IT'S JUST TOO
MUCH WORK FOR ME.

- YOU KNOW, I THINK IT WAS
IN THE DESERT FOR A REASON.

- I DID SOME RESEARCH ON IT.

I THINK IT'S, LIKE,
FROM THE 1960s, SO...

- IT WAS MADE BY MARKETEER.

IT WAS, LIKE, ONE OF THE
FIRST ELECTRIC GOLF CARTS.

FOR SOME REASON, MY
DAD LIKES THESE THINGS.

I DON'T KNOW WHY.

- HE LIKES OLD CARS.

HE WON'T DRIVE IT
IF IT'S NOT A CLASSIC.

- IT'S A CLASSIC.
THIS IS A CLASSIC.

- YEAH, BUT I DIDN'T REALIZE
IT WAS IN SUCH BAD SHAPE.

THE OLD MAN WOULD LOVE ONE OF
THESE OLD MARKETEER GOLF CARTS.

THEY WERE ONE OF
THE FIRST COMPANIES

TO GO WITH AN ELECTRIC
GOLF CART BACK IN THE 1950s,

AND THEY'RE SUPER
COLLECTIBLE TODAY.

BUT THIS THING
NEEDS A LITTLE WORK.

HOLY.

LOOK AT THIS.

LOOK AT THAT BATTERY.

SO THE MOTOR SHOULD
BE BACK HERE, RIGHT?

- YES.

- THIS IS GONNA BE
FUN. I CAN ALREADY TELL.

- IT TURNS.

- THE MOTOR TURNS?
- YEAH, IT TURNS.

YOU JUST NEED A
NEW BELT. THAT'S IT.

- YEAH, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU NEED
A LOT MORE THAN A BELT, GUY.

- IT'S NOT THAT BAD.

COUPLE OF TIRES, MAYBE
SOME NEW UPHOLSTERY.

- IT'S LIKE PUTTING A
LITTLE LIPSTICK ON A PIG.

- IT'S MORE THAN
LIPSTICK ON A PIG.

THIS IS PLASTIC
SURGERY ON A PIG.

THIS THING IS BEAT UP,

BUT I KNOW THE OLD MAN
HAS ALWAYS WANTED ONE,

SO IF I CAN GET IT
FOR THE RIGHT PRICE,

I'LL TAKE IT TO RICK DALE
AND GET IT POLISHED UP

INTO THE ULTIMATE PRESENT.

ALL RIGHT, SO WHAT DO
YOU WANT TO DO WITH IT?

- I WANT TO SELL IT.

- ALL RIGHT, AND HOW
MUCH DO YOU WANT FOR IT?

- I DID SOME RESEARCH ON IT.

THEY GO FOR A LOT OF MONEY

WHEN THEY'RE ALL
RESTORED AND CHERRIED OUT,

SO 300 BUCKS.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. I'LL
GIVE YOU 100 BUCKS FOR IT.

AND I WILL GET IT
OFF YOUR PROPERTY.

- 200 BUCKS.
- I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.

I'LL GIVE YOU 150 BUCKS FOR IT,

AND I SHOULDN'T BE DOING THAT.

- ALL RIGHT, 150 BUCKS.

- 150 BUCKS.
- AWESOME.

THANK YOU.
- ALL RIGHT.

- I'M TOTALLY HAPPY
THAT I GOT $150 FOR IT.

I THOUGHT I'D BE
LUCKY TO GET $25,

SO I'M VERY EXCITED.

THAT'LL MAKE MY WIFE HAPPY.

- CHUM, YOU'RE NOT PUSHING.

- I'M PUSHING.

- EARLIER TODAY,

A WOMAN BROUGHT IN A
1960s FEMALE G.I. JOE DOLL.

SHE WANTS 2,500 BUCKS FOR IT,

BUT I DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT IT,

SO I INVITED MY FRIEND JONATHAN
TO COME IN AND TAKE A LOOK.

- HEY, WHAT'S UP, COREY?
- WHAT'S UP, BUDDY?

- I'M JOHNNY JIMINEZ,
THE OWNER OF TOY SHACK.

WE SPECIALIZE IN VINTAGE
TOYS AND COLLECTIBLES,

PARTICULARLY OLD ACTION FIGURES.

SO WHAT DO WE GOT HERE?

- SHE SAYS IT'S A G.I. JANE.

IT'S ACTUALLY A
G.I. JOE NURSE DOLL.

IT CAME OUT IN 1967.

SINCE G.I. JOES CAME OUT,

IT'S ALWAYS BEEN A
POPULAR LINE OF TOYS.

THE LINE THAT CAME OUT IN
THE '60s WAS REALLY POPULAR,

THE 12-INCH,

AND THEN LATER, THEY CAME
OUT WITH THE 3 3/4 IN THE '80s.

SINCE THE MOVIE CAME OUT,

IT'S ADDED A LOT MORE POPULARITY
TO THE WHOLE LINE OF JOES.

THE STORY ABOUT THIS DOLL
IS, IT CAME OUT FOR ONE YEAR,

THE REASON BEING IS,

BOYS DIDN'T WANT
TO PLAY WITH DOLLS,

AND GIRLS DIDN'T WANT

TO PLAY WITH ANYTHING
RELATED TO G.I. JOE.

SO IT WAS A SPECTACULAR FLOP,

WHICH MAKES IT ONE OF THE RAREST

AND ONE OF THE MOST
SOUGHT-AFTER COLLECTIBLES

ON THE MARKET TODAY.

THIS DOLL RIGHT HERE CAME
OUT WITH A GREEN MEDIC BAG

AND A WHITE MEDIC BAG.

THE WHITE MEDIC BAG IS
THE RARER OF THE TWO,

WHICH MAKES THIS ONE
HERE MORE VALUABLE.

THE WHITE BAG ALONE

COULD FETCH ANYWHERE
FROM $250 TO $500.

THIS DOLL RIGHT NOW AS IT SITS,

WE'RE LOOKING AT ANYWHERE
FROM $1,200 TO $1,500

IN TODAY'S MARKET.

- THAT'S ALL?
- YES.

- EVEN WITH THIS WHITE BAG?

- EVEN WITH THE WHITE BAG.
- YOU SURE?

- THERE ARE SOME
DOLLS THAT, WITH THE BAG,

WENT FOR AUCTION
FOR $5,000 OR $6,000,

BUT THAT WAS IN THE BOX.

YOU GOT A LOOSE FIGURE HERE.

IT WOULD BE WORTH
ABOUT $5,000 TO $6,000

IF IT WAS IN THE PACKAGE.

THIS DOLL WAS LOOSE,

IT WAS MISSING SOME
OF THE ACCESSORIES,

BUT IT WAS IN GOOD CONDITION,

SO IT WAS STILL WORTH
ABOUT $1,500 AS IT IS.

- THE PRICE OF THINGS
GO UP AND DOWN,

AND CONDITION IS EVERYTHING.

I MEAN, IT'S IN
PRETTY GOOD SHAPE,

BUT THERE'S NO BOX.

THERE'S HOLES IN HER STOCKINGS.

THIS IS DIRTY.

- YEAH, IT'S NOT REALLY
WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR,

BUT I CAN UNDERSTAND IT.

- THANKS FOR COMING IN, JOHNNY.
- THANK YOU, RICK.

- I KNOW YOU'RE DISAPPOINTED.

NOW THAT YOU HAVE THE INFO,

WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO GET OUT OF IT?

- WELL, I'D LIKE TO
GET AT LEAST $1,000?

- I'LL GIVE YOU
600 BUCKS FOR IT.

- MM, NO. HOW ABOUT $900?

YEAH, YOU GOT TO BE
KIDDING ME WITH $600. I MEAN...

- I'M JUST THINKING IT'S
GONNA BE A NIGHTMARE TO SELL.

- THERE ARE A LOT OF G.I.
JOE COLLECTORS OUT THERE,

AND THIS IS PRETTY RARE.

- THAT'S THE ONLY THING
I'M THINKING IN MY HEAD.

THERE'S A LOT OF G.I. JOE
COLLECTORS OUT THERE.

IT'S G.I. JOE NURSE.

- BUT G.I. JOE COLLECTORS

DON'T HAVE THIS IN
THEIR COLLECTION,

SO THEY WOULD BE...

- I'LL GO $700 ON IT.

- HOW ABOUT $800?

- UM...

I'LL GIVE YOU THE $800 FOR IT.

- ALL RIGHT. THANKS.

- ALL RIGHT, GO WRITE HER UP.

- I SETTLED FOR
$800. I'M OKAY WITH IT.

I ONLY PAID $50 FOR THE
DOLL, SO I CAN'T COMPLAIN.

- MY DAD AND THE OLD MAN

HAVE ME KEEPING AN
EYE ON THE NIGHT CREW.

I'M BASICALLY JUST MAKING
SURE THEY DON'T SCREW UP.

WE DON'T GET A TON
OF BUSINESS AT NIGHT,

SO I'M BORED AS HELL.

WHAT'S UP, CHUM?
- NOT MUCH.

JUST GOING TO WATCH
PEOPLE READ POETRY.

- YOU MEAN A POETRY READING.
- EXACTLY.

- WHAT DO YOU WANT, CHUM?

- WE THOUGHT YOU
MIGHT BE FEELING LONELY

AND NEEDED SOMETHING
TO KEEP YOU COMPANY.

- THAT SHOULD KEEP YOU FULL
FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT.

- THANKS, CHUM.

- DON'T WORRY
ABOUT IT, BIG HOSS.

IT'S ON THE GIRLS.

I'LL WRITE YOU A POEM TOO.

- DUDE, I'M GOOD
WITH JUST THE SUB.

GET OUT OF HERE.

- DON'T FORGET
YOUR SODA, BIG HOSS.

LET'S GO.

- HAVE FUN TONIGHT,
LITTLE BUDDY.
