"OUR PRICES ARE THE BEST." - WITH A SLOGAN LIKE THAT,
HOW COULD WE GO WRONG?
THAT'S IT.
- TODAY WE'RE IN FORT WORTH, TEXAS.
NOW THIS FACILITY IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES.
IT'S ONE OF THOSE PLACES
WHERE THE UNITS DON'T LOOK LIKE MUCH FROM THE DOOR,
BUT I ALWAYS HEAR ABOUT PEOPLE FINDING
HEIRLOOMS AND COLLECTABLES.
- WE NEED TO GET EVERYTHING WE NEED TODAY.
- LET'S HIT A COUPLE LICKS, A COUPLE GOOD, BIG UNITS--

WHEN YOU BRING A TRUCK, YOU HAVE BAD LUCK.
TODAY I'M FINDING THAT ONE EXPENSIVE ITEM,
AND I'M BURNING THE REST
PIRATE-STYLE.
- WE HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF AN UNUSUAL PROBLEM TODAY.
WE HAVE VERY, VERY FEW BUYERS,
AND WE THINK IT'S BECAUSE
IT'S OVER 100 DEGREES OUT HERE TODAY.
ALL RIGHT, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
LOOKS LIKE A SMALLER THAN USUAL CROWD TODAY.
HERE ARE THE RULES FOR THE AUCTION:
YOU'LL HAVE FIVE MINUTES TO LOOK AROUND.
IT'S A CASH ONLY SALE.
YOU'LL NOT BE ABLE TO STEP INSIDE THE UNIT.
SO IF YOU'RE READY TO GO,
LET'S OPEN THE GATE AND GO, WHAT DO Y'ALL THINK?

OKAY, I SEE TOYS. THERE'S DRAWERS THERE.
OH, THERE'S A WHOLE BEDROOM SUIT.
THAT'S GOOD FOR THE STORE.
I'M LIKING THIS. I WANT THIS UNIT.
THAT CABINET HAS WINDOW APPEAL.
CUSTOMER SEES IT FROM THE WINDOW,
THEY LIKE WHAT THEY SEE,
AND THEY BUY IT.

- OH, IT LOOKS LIKE AN EXPLOSION
TOOK PLACE IN HERE. - LOT OF STUFF IN HERE.
MATTRESSES, CLOTHES...

WAIT FOR THE GOOD STUFF.
WE CAME HERE TODAY TO FIND
SOME ITEMS THAT WE CAN JUST TAKE
RIGHT OFF THE TRAILER, ONTO THE SHOWROOM FLOOR,
AND THIS UNIT RIGHT HERE IS NOT IT.
- I'M LOOKING FOR SOME HIGHER-END PRODUCTS.
I'M LOOKING FOR SOME ANTIQUES.
SOMETHING I CAN SELL FOR SOME MONEY.
EVERYDAY, MUNDANE ITEMS, I--I'M NOT INTERESTED IN THAT.
I COULD POSSIBLY STRAP
THAT CABINET ON THE TOP OF MY CAR, BUT...
EVERYTHING ELSE IS GOING IN THE DUMPSTER.

WHEN A SCREWDRIVER'S HOLDING THE DOOR SHUT.

I DO SEE A LOT OF YARD SALE STUFF IN HERE.
I DON'T SELL YARD SALE ITEMS, I REALLY DON'T.

BUNIONS AND CORNS, THEY JUST DON'T CURE THEMSELVES.
I HAD TO MISS WALT'S AUCTION TODAY
BECAUSE I HAD TO PERFORM BUNION SURGERY.
SO I'M HEADING BACK TO A HOARDER'S UNIT
THAT I BOUGHT BEFORE WALT'S SALE.
WHOA.
WE HAVE SOME TREASURES IN HERE.
WELL, WE HAVE A GREAT LOOKING UNIT HERE.
I GOT AN INVESTMENT OF ABOUT $550,
SO LET'S SEE WHAT WE CAN FIND IN HERE.
I THINK THIS LADY MUST'VE BEEN A BEAUTICIAN.
HERE ARE SOME NICE HAIR DRYERS.
THEY'RE ABOUT $250 APIECE.
THESE TWO DRYERS ARE GOOD FOR ME,
BUT THIS UNIT'S A LOT OF WORK,
SO I NEED A BIG PROFIT.
I WAS PARTICULARLY DRAWN BY THIS, UH, CHIMPANZEE.
I THOUGHT HE WAS REALLY CUTE.
HE CAN SIT RIGHT THERE.
THIS TRANSFORMER IN HERE, PROBABLY 30 BUCKS.
THESE ARE VERY COOL TABLE LIGHTS,
AND THEY'RE PROBABLY 30 BUCKS APIECE.
OH, HERE'S A HOT OVEN I CAN DO MY BAGELS IN.
OKAY, THAT'S, UH... THAT'S 20 BUCKS...
THERE.
THERE'S A CAR SEAT.
THAT'S 20 BUCKS.
THIS IS A REFRIGERATOR.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
OH, IT'S AN OVEN.
NOW THIS IS ALL JUST PROFIT.
THIS IS A NICE PAIR OF PHILIPS SPEAKERS.
THIS IS A $100-SPEAKER.
HERE IS A BEAUTY CHAIR
WITH A HYDRAULIC PUMP.
SO THE CHAIR IS $200.
PEOPLE IN THE BEAUTY BUSINESS NEVER BUY NEW.
THE SECONDHAND MARKET IS EXCELLENT.
THEY'LL FLY OUT THE DOOR.
HERE'S A STROLLER THAT, YOU KNOW, EASILY IS $50.
MAYBE THEY'LL BE GOOD FOR MY MONKEY.
HERE WE HAVE A STOVE. G.E.
- LET'S SEE, WE HAVE--
OH, MY GOODNESS!
WHOA!
WE HAVE A VIDEO GAME.
THE GLASS IS INTACT, THE SCREEN IS INTACT.
IT'S COOL. IT'S SUPER COOL.
WHOA, I LIKE-- I LIKE THIS.
PAC-MAN.
EXTRA POINTS, TELLS YOU HOW TO DO IT.
NOW WOULDN'T THAT BE COOL IF THAT IS A PAC-MAN GAME?
HERE WE GO.
OY VEY, WHAT A-- WHAT A MESS.
I'M GONNA HAVE TO CALL SOME OF MY REAL GOOD FRIENDS
TO GET ME CLEAR AND OUT OF HERE.
I'M GONNA HAVE TO GET THIS GAME CHECKED OUT.
I HOPE IT'S OPERATING.
PUN INTENDED.
I REALLY LIKE IT, AND I THINK IT'S THE FIND OF THE DAY.
- LET'S SEE WHAT WE GOT IN HERE.
I'M BACK AT THE ARTSY-FARTSY UNIT I BOUGHT FOR 325,
AND NOW LET'S SEE WHAT'S INSIDE.
THAT'S A HEAD FOR HAIRCUTTERS TO LEARN ON,
AND, UH, I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE
A LITTLE ARTSY IN HERE, I THOUGHT THERE MIGHT BE
SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT COLLECTABLE IN HERE.
IT'S A MERCURY VAPOR LIGHT
YOU PUT OUTSIDE. THAT'S ABOUT...
A $50-BILL THERE.
THIS IS A HIKER'S BACKPACK.
COULD GET PROBABLY $30 OR $40 FOR IT.
LET'S SEE WHAT THERE IS WHEN THESE ARE OUT OF THE WAY.
HUH.
DIDN'T EXPECT THIS.
THAT'S A WHOLE LOAD TO THE DUMP.
I DON'T HAVE ROOM TO HAUL THIS.
I DON'T HAVE BUYERS TO BUY IT.
ALL THAT I'M FINDING HERE ARE DUMPSTER ITEMS.
NOTHING OVER HERE.
LET'S SEE...
OKAY.
ALL RIGHT, THIS LOOKS A LITTLE INTERESTING.
SHOE.
AH...
WELL, WELL, WELL. WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE?
LOOKS LIKE A RENAISSANCE FAIRE HELMET.
UH, I KNOW IT'S NOT ORIGINAL
BECAUSE, UH, IT'S GOT MODERN RIVETS ON IT OVER HERE.
AND THE WELDING ON IT, IT WOULD BE A HAMMER WELD ON IT.
THIS IS VERY COOL.
ALWAYS WANTED ONE OF THESE.
I WILL LOOK THROUGH THE UNIT NOW.
AH, THIS IS THE SHIRT.
OH, MAN, LOOK AT THAT.
WOW.
I FEEL LIKE KING ARTHUR WITH THIS.
SHOE GUARDS. COVER YOUR SHOES WITH THEM.
WOW.
OH, YEAH. THAT'S THE PRIZE.
THAT'LL FIT RIGHT INTO THE CAR TODAY.
LOOK OUT, I'M GONNA BRING THIS TO THE NEXT ONE.
[battle cry]
THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.
YOU FIND A COUPLE OF GREAT PIECES IN A LOCKER?
IT MAKES IT ALL WORTHWHILE.
I THINK I DID DEFINITELY GOOD TODAY.
I DOUBLED MY MONEY. MORE THAN DOUBLED MY MONEY.
- YOU READY TO DO THIS?
- I AM. - OKAY.
- ARE YOU? - both: [laughing]
- I'M HEADING BACK TO THE UNIT WITH THE CABINET.
BASICALLY I'M LOOKING FOR STUFF WITH WINDOW APPEAL.
YOU KNOW, SHOWPIECE ITEMS.
- COME ON.
- I THINK THIS IS ABOUT 100 BUCKS.
- I THINK YOU MIGHT BE LOOKING AT 150.
- NOTHING. IT'S ABOUT A $20 SUITCASE.
DINOSAUR.
GOT ABOUT $50 RIGHT IN HERE.
- [laughing] - [bleep]
- WE PROBABLY GOT ABOUT $50 WORTH OF CLOTHES RIGHT HERE.
- AND THEY'RE NAKED. - AND THEY'RE NAKED.
THESE CLOTHES IN MY STORE?
IT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LOOKING LIKE A GOODWILL
OR LOOKING LIKE A MACY'S.
IT'S A CANISTER.
USA.
DAVY CROCKETT.
WOW.

HERE'S HIS HEAD.
DAVY CROCKETT.

THIS THING'S NOT BAD.
IT'S CUTE, IN A WAY.
- I'M SORRY, BUT, UH...
A COOKIE JAR AIN'T GONNA GET NOBODY IN THE STORE.
- I THINK WE CAN GET TO THESE DRESSERS, JERRY.
ALL RIGHT, YOU GOT IT? - YEAH.

- EW, THIS ONE'S NASTY.
HOW MANY DRAWERS WE MISSING ON THIS ONE?
TWO? - TWO ON THAT ONE.

HEY, JERRY?

JERRY, LOOK.
DAVY CROCKETT, LOOK AT THIS. PUT IT UP HERE.
DAVY CROCKETT.
THIS IS DAVY CROCKETT'S TENT. [laughing]
I KNOW THAT DAVY CROCKETT WAS A HERO.
I HOPE HE IS MY HERO TODAY
- OH, YEAH, WE CAN GET THIS CHECKED OUT,
OR I CAN GO HOME AND GO TO SLEEP.
DONE DEAL.
- THERE'S A COOL BAR ARCADE IN TOWN.
I THINK IT'S THE PERFECT PLACE
FOR ME TO BRING THIS PAC-MAN TO BE EVALUATED.
SEE IF IT WORKS.
YOU HAVE TO BE VERY DELICATE
WITH THE TUBES INSIDE THIS MACHINE,
SO I HAVEN'T TURNED IT ON YET.
- LET'S SEE WHAT WE GOT HERE, UM...
LOOKS LIKE A MISS PAC, UH, COCKTAIL TABLE.
THEY CAME OUT WITH THE COCKTAIL TABLES
LITTLE BIT AFTER THE STAND-UP MODELS,
UH, 'CAUSE SOME OF THE BARS,
THEY WANTED THE GAMES BUT THEY NEEDED A PLACE
TO SET THEIR DRINKS. - WOW, OKAY.
- OH, AND I SEE YOU GOT THE OVERLAY,
SO THAT'LL-- THAT'LL DEFINITELY HELP.
UM, THIS WILL GO UNDER THE-- THE TOP GLASS HERE.
PULL OFF THESE LITTLE CLIPS-- - CLIPS.
- FLIPS RIGHT UNDERNEATH AND PUT IT RIGHT BACK ON,
YOU'RE GOOD TO GO.
- I DON'T KNOW IF IT WORKS,
SO...YOU HAVE AN OUTLET?
WE CAN-- - SURE DO...
JUST WANNA SET YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
IF IT DOES NOT WORK,
YOU'RE PROBABLY LOOKING AT ANOTHER 400, 500
TO GET IT GOING. - REALLY?
BASICALLY, WHAT THIS GUY'S TELLING ME,
IF THIS DOESN'T TURN ON,
IT'S A BUST. I GOT A DOORSTOP.
- BUT IT ALL DEPENDS WHETHER IT COMES UP AND TURNS ON.
LET'S PLUG IT IN AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

ALL IN ALL, YOU'RE LOOKING
SOMEWHERE IN THE VICINITY OF...
ABOUT $1,200.
- $1,200?
WHOA, THAT'S WAY ABOVE WHAT I GUESSED.
THAT'S WHY I'M HERE TALKING TO YOU, GREG.
YOU JUST-- YOU JUST MADE MY DAY.
THIS IS FABULOUS.
THIS CASE PROVES IT:
I CAN HAVE MY CAKE, AND MY PODIATRIC SURGERY,
AND EAT IT TOO.
HMM...THAT DOESN'T SOUND RIGHT.
- WE'RE GOING TO GERALD MCDONALD'S PLACE.
HE'S A LOCAL, HE'S GOT TO KNOW HIS HISTORY.
JERRY, GOT THE BOX?
I JUST HOPE THAT DAVY CROCKETT WILL BRING ME SOME MONEY.
- LET'S HAVE A LOOK.
YEAH.
IT'S A--IT'S A DAVY CROCKETT KIDS' TENT.
CAME BACK OUT IN THE-- IN THE '50s.
SPREAD THIS OUT WHERE YOU CAN GET A GOOD LOOK AT IT.
ON A GOOD DAY, IF YOU FOUND SOMEBODY,
A BABY-BOOMER THAT LIVED THROUGH THIS ERA,
THEY MIGHT HAVE TO HAVE IT.
I'D PROBABLY SAY SOMEWHERE AROUND $100.
- $100 FOR A TENT?
- THAT'S A GREAT FIND. - IT--IT IS A GREAT FIND.
- THE TENT'S A SHOWPIECE.
IT'S FABULOUS.
NOW I HAVE ONE MORE THING-- - OKAY.
- I'D LIKE FOR YOU TO LOOK AT.
- ALL RIGHT. - OKAY?
- LOOKS LIKE A COOKIE JAR,
DAVY CROCKETT COOKIE JAR. THESE WERE PRODUCED IN THE '50s,
AND THEY WERE ALSO REPRODUCED
IN THE '90s. - OH.
- NOW THESE WERE MADE BY MCCOY.
THE DIFFERENCE IS,
THE ONES MADE IN THE '50s
ARE WORTH A LOT MORE THAN THE ONES MADE
IN THE '90s. - 'CAUSE THEY'RE OLDER.
- YOU THINK, LESA?
- WELL, THEY'RE OLDER, THEY'RE THE ORIGINALS,
AND THEY REPRODUCED THEM IN THE '90s.
- OKAY. - SO, IN REAL LIFE...
COOKIE JARS, THE SIZE MATTERS.
- [laughing]
- REAL CLASSY, LESA.
- THE LARGER COOKIE JAR WAS MADE IN '57,
AND THEY'RE 10 1/2 INCHES,
AND THE OTHERS ARE 9 1/2.
SO WE'LL MEASURE THIS AND WE'LL FIND OUT
IF YOU'VE GOT SOMETHING WORTH A LOT OF MONEY.
WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'VE GOT THE REAL MCCOY.
- THE REAL DEAL, JERRY.
- OKAY, SO IT'S THE REAL DEAL.
WHAT'S IT WORTH?
- MCCOY MADE SEVERAL DAVY CROCKETT COOKIE JARS.
THIS IS THE RAREST OF THE BUNCH,
SO THIS ONE IN TODAY'S MARKET
WOULD PROBABLY BE-- BRING YOU SOMEWHERE AROUND...
$900.
- REALLY? - YES.
- $900?
FOR A COOKIE JAR?
- ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
- ON A GOOD AUCTION, GOOD DAY, YEAH.
- IT'S GONNA BE GREAT.
I COULD GIVE YOU A BIG KISS RIGHT NOW.
I'M GONNA SELL THE COOKIE JAR,
AND I'M GONNA PUT UP THE TENT.
IT'S GONNA LOOK SO NICE IN OUR STORE,
I WON'T EVEN HAVE TO PUT AN AD OUT.
THE WORD OF MOUTH WILL GO AROUND, TRUST ME.
- NEXT TIME YOU BRING A COOKIE JAR,
BRING ME SOME COOKIES. - I WILL.
- THIS IS DALLAS. WHERE DOES ONE GO TO APPRAISE
A RENAISSANCE COSTUME?
HELLO, HELLO.
- HEY, HOW'S IT GOING, MY LORD?
- DID HE JUST SAY "MY LORD"?
HEY, ARE YOU JACK? - I AM JACK.
- JACK, GOOD TO MEET YOU, I'M VIC.
I TALKED TO YOU ON THE PHONE?
- OH, YEAH. - GOOD, VERY GOOD. UM...
THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT I FOUND IN THAT STORAGE LOCKER.
I WANTED YOU TO TAKE A LOOK AT THEM.
- YEAH, LET'S TAKE A LOOK, SEE WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THEM.
ALL RIGHT. SOUNDS GOOD, MAN.
I'M GETTING THE ROYAL TREATMENT HERE.
- YOU ARE. NOT VERY MANY PEOPLE GET TO SET FOOT IN HERE.
- THIS IS GREAT, MAN. - I'D SAY A SMALL...
- I APPRECIATE IT A LOT.
I HAVE TO ADMIT, THIS IS KIND OF COOL.
- LET'S GO AHEAD AND PUT YOUR STUFF OUT RIGHT HERE--
- NOW FIRST, WE'VE GOT THIS SWORD.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?
- IT'S NICE.
IT'S DEFINITELY A REPLICA.
I REALLY WOULDN'T USE IT IN-- IN A REAL FIGHTING SITUATION.
- A REAL FIGHTING SITUATION?
AND, UH, THEN THE HELMET HERE.
- SO THIS TOO IS--
IS A REPLICA, IT WAS MADE RECENTLY.
I REALLY WOULDN'T JOUST IN IT.
IT'S NOT--IT DOESN'T HAVE THE PADDING IN IT.
- MM-HMM. - OR A CHIN STRAP.
OR EVEN A PLACE TO HOOK A CHIN STRAP.
- SO IT'S MORE LIKE DECORATION.
- YEAH, IT'S DEFINITELY DECORATION.
- FOR A GUY THAT WORKS AT A THEME RESTAURANT,
HE KNOWS HIS STUFF.
WELL, THIS NEXT ITEM IS REALLY COOL,
AND I THINK THIS IS THE REAL DEAL.
- THAT IS VERY NICE,
AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD FIT YOU.
- I COULD WEAR THIS OUT CLUBBING.
- YOU COULD. YOU COULD PROBABLY PICK UP
SOME LADIES LIKE THAT. - DEFINITELY.
- THAT'S ACTUALLY A PRETTY IMPRESSIVE PIECE.
- WHAT IS THIS--I MEAN, I KNOW IT'S A SHIRT, BUT--
- IT'S A CHAIN MAIL SHIRT. - A CHAIN?
- A CHAIN MAIL... - CHAIN MAIL.
- UH, IT TOOK SOMEBODY A LONG TIME
TO FASHION ALL THESE LITTLE RINGS,
AND THEY DID IT BY HAND. - REALLY.
- THAT'S WHAT'S GONNA MAKE IT EXPENSIVE.
I MEAN, THEY SAT THERE,
AND ONE BY ONE PUT THIS TOGETHER.
MEDIEVAL CROCHETING. - WOW.
THAT WOULD DRIVE YOU CRAZY.
LAST ITEM IN HERE ARE THESE.
- I LIKE IT, IT'S VERY FASHIONABLE.
- SO WHAT DO YOU THINK WE HAVE HERE FOR THE WHOLE PACKAGE?

THE CHAIN MAIL SHIRT, THE BOOTS,
UM...AND YOUR BUTTER KNIFE. - BUTTER KNIFE?
