@@Shepp420 Rick has been doing pawning for over 20 years, and will often have a good idea on how much an item is going to sell for. Customers are free to reject his offers and shop around. Don't forget, Rick is taking the risk by buying the items. You sell it to him, he is stuck with it. It may take him days to sell it, or years.

@Murtaza Kuxiani I've actually been to this store in Vegas. The reason several re-occuring people come in, is because they're ACTUAL customers. Everything on the show is being sold. I saw the Playboy cartoons that Corey bought in one of the cases. The reason they get such a variety of items: people can come in, and show someone an item they may like. If it's interesting, they tell the person to come back at a certain day (usually a couple days later) with the film crew.

It all depends on the current market for those coins, if they are in demand you could possibly sell it at 15k on an auction house easily but if they are not in demand you could sit on it forever trying to get that price. Best to do your own research and not bring valuables into a pawn shop in the first place.

There was no good production, mining or people using the coin by then like now specially since the prices were so diferent then so a single of those gold coins were enough to feed a family for a months or even months. Aso sometimes coins got lost, damaged or melted in other coins since they were made with precious materials and it has been a thousand of yerars.

My God, A coin that the expert said he could get about $15,000.00 for he agrees to sell for only $8,000.00. That's a loss of $7,000.00. There is always a market for extremely rare and valuable coins. What a fool he was for being suckered like that - unless of course he stole it, or possibly was selling it for someone else who obtained it illegally. Then he made out alright.

@Locutus 5 лет назад

He may very well be able to get 15,000 if he sold it himself, but how long will it take for him to sell it? Where would he go? How many people would he have to see? You have someone with cash, ready and waiting for you, no need to wait around to sell it.

If I’m taking the risk then I need to ensure I have a reasonable profit margin. If you have 2 people bidding on the coin at auction they could run it up over 20k if they really want it or there can be only one person that really wants it and it only goes up to 8k and after auction fees and your time going to the auction you lost a few grand. Some auctions don’t allow a reserve price. if you want quick cash you will almost never get close to what you want. If you want all the money try to sell it on line or at auction but you will be taking a risk, many auctions don’t let you have a reserve price. I’ve lost thousands at auctions and made thousands. If I paid full price like everyone wants I’d be broke. People have no idea the costs involved running a business and selling items.

@@Locutus All he has to do is apply to an auction show. Sure the auction is going to take 10%/15% of the total sale, but I bet he would have made more money that way.

Customer: Jesus himself touched this coin, and whoever possesses this coin will gain immortality. Rick: I'll give you $15 and I'm taking all the risk here, it's going to take up space and it will take time to move it.

I wish i was in the position to buy people valuables for 1/5th of the value. Tell them "im takin all the risk", then rub my hands all the way to the auction!!
