Hey Pete, I just want to let you know I’ve been a mechanic for years. I saw the lathe Chuck you have that has rounded over heads. The only thing you need to do is take a ball hammer and smack them right in the middle. What it does is where they have Rolled over because somebody use the wrong size it squares them back up. Trust me. I’ve used this 1000 times in the 25 years. I’ve been in industrial maintenance saves you a lot of money to replace hardware and if that does not work the other thing to do is take a flat punch do the same exact thing it’s going to work. I guarantee you all you’re doing is shocking The bolt hope everything works out. Have a great day.
I used to press records. Alot of bands these days sell their test pressings. Once you get the record press stabilized you do 20-25 test pressings and send them to the band or management for approval. Sonic Youth isn't that big of a deal these days, but some of those test pressings can go $150 and up. Really depends on how rabid their fan base is .
You should make a highlight reel of every single time you've said 'you know what I mean' and 'what are you thinking, what do you wanna get out of this' and all your other isms that you say in every episode. Heck, you already said 'you know what I mean' twice within the first 4 minutes of the video lol
I bought a pair of counterfeit Merrell Moab hiking shoes off eBay last year. I was suspicious because they didn't have the same fit and feel as a prior pair I bought in a store did. Wore them for a year and bought a new pair from an online shoe store that are legit and compared them side by side with the old pair. The give away on the bogus pair is single stitching everywhere. The real ones have double stitching in several places on the shoes.
Canadian here.. The Blackhawks jerseys were from goaltenders Scott Darling and Corey Crawford. They were the Blackhawks goalie tandem from 2014/15 - 2016/17.
I really appreciate how you let customers down gently when they ask too high. Ive been the customer whos asked too high for something i thought had more value, and the guy behind the counter was a real dick about it. I think its fair to tell someone bluntly, but no reason to make them feel stupid. And explaining why makes sure they dont leave feeling lied to.
Pete, we’ll done for calling out the fakers and being such a fountain of knowledge which helps us all get our heads straight, making us more vigilant so we don’t get scammed when we buy something.👍🏻
When Pete asks the guy who Darling is, and the guy says, "I don't know....I think he's newer" 😭 no, it's been 7 years since Darling played for Blackhawks. If the guy doesn't even know that, I'd bet it's fake
Im from a small Town way up in Northern Ontario in Canada and me and my husband love watching your videos,they are super cool,and we love your honesty and actually would thrust you would be fair to us if we had to deal with you....we saw the video 9 months ago about the treatment those trolls and the g-mail threats you got and that really got us mad at those negative comments and family threats you got,please I hope you are confident enough and you know people love watching you on the tube that you are a good person,that throll was really bad,my husband says I would have called the cops on him and get him charged for the hate mail and negative comments on you tube...its like mental harassment...but that proves to us people, that you are a good person and tough at that to endure this kind of harassment from this troll,this negative person should be ashamed at himself ( or maybe I would pity him,cause maybe he was in a bad place at that time and he had to lash out his problems at someone and he chose you..or maybe not but it was very cruel of him to do so)anyways enough of my rant and so sorry if I made mistakes with writing in English,I am french oops...so we continue watching you and its our date night on Mondays lol we recently retired and make dates for ourselves throughout the week and this is our Monday date with popcorn and all lol because in our small town there is not much to do for retirees lol...well enough...oops almost wrote a book...soso sorry lol Thanks for doing your videos,and wish you,your family and employees well and be safe you all😇☺😉
These are test pressings of copyrighted music that has already been released. Unless there's some sort of hidden away secret recording from Sonic Youth that no one has ever heard about - that would be extremely unlikely, especially in the modern era of the band.
I feel like that helmet could have gone either way. I hope the kid sends it off to Becket or something, because while Pete is good at what he does, he admits he's not a professional authenticator. I can see not taking the risk, though.
I'll be a 100% honest wit you.. probably 80 percent of sports memorabilia are well below $500 in value. Sure, you're going think of a Michael Jordan game worn jersey, or Super bowl ring and say no say. But your average signed baseball, bat, etc in the secondary market, most stuff just doesn't sell for anywhere near what people think it will. The one exception might be things are nicely framed, etc.
That guy was on the phone just talking to his drug dealer, he will go down the street to another place, seemed like he didn't even care to talk to you once you knew they were fake.
The suspense! The whole time you were looking at that bears helmet I was just thinking of myself that you should buy the case if nothing else 😅. Then you did 🎉
I love Sonic Youth as do thousands of others with great taste in music 😛 and I once got into a secret party put together specially for Sonic Youth just by walking by a security guard and smiling, the same security guard who moments later stopped Kim Gordon from walking in because he didn't know who she was and wasn't convinced that she was allowed in. 😂 I felt so bad but had to just watch and say nothing otherwise he would have found out that I was not supposed to be there. That's my Sonic Youth story that I'm sure nobody else cares about but I shared it anyway.
There are so many things coming over from China that are knockoffs and people think they're real. It's a good thing you're educating the public because not all of them are aware that they holding fake counterfeit designer names, logos, signatures, knock offs you're my favorite reseller and seller nicest guy in the planet. I always enjoy when people send you gifts, I am heading that direction too. I just need to know your address. I am from Western Massachusetts South Deerfield USA.
The algorithm led me to you, and ive been watching for a few weeks now. I live in Downers Grove, IL and I should take a trip out to crystal lake and check out the shop myself sometime. Great finding you, Pete!
Greetings from North Carolina 👋 I'm a lifelong Bulls fan even though I live in NC and also root for the Hornets. I saw the Bulls play in 2019 in Charlotte and would love to watch them play in the UC. I love watching the videos and seeing Honey the kitty and two beautiful birds. Maybe I can come up there and visit sometime. Go Bulls!!! Matthew from NC
Hey Pete, I'm a kiwi living in Australia, love your videos and mindset towards your outlook. . I've tried to call but it's really difficult because you are 8 hours ahead (yesturday) so I have to call you between 1am and 9am and I have a recent broken leg so my sleeps all over the shop and calling someone at 1am with people sleeping in the house is dificult😅... I'll try call again tomorrow morning 👍
Blackhawks jerseys are some of the easiest in sports to tell if they're counterfeit. The crest on the front will be chain stitched on any of the authentic ones with the fight strap. Also, the thickness of the shoulder "C" is never right. Always too thin, and usually the wrong shade of yellow.
Just check the year against the discography release dates... The test pressings will be exactly what's on the album of the same or following year. You're really best off pricing through Discogs. It's made it hell for flippers & collectors. But for resale it's the gold standard these days.
From this guy and pawnstars I feel like Pawn Shops are pretty much just an excuse to horde random stuff you like while occasionally making twice what you pay.
When I was a kid I had real stuffed hammerhead shark! It was the coolest thing ever. Sadly my childhood garage burned down on the 3rd of July from a firework and it got destroyed 😢
Those look like actual Reebok jerseys, just the replica version, they made 2 versions, the $150 versions often have those flaws, the $220 version rarely had the flaws but it’s not unheard of. There’s a reason the production of these uniforms has bounced around a bit lately
"I got a letter from the government today, I opened it up and it said you're a sucker." -Sonic Youth, id love those records but i would need a record player and you would need to ship to Australia
"you no watta mean" "I'm gonna be completely honest wit u" 😂😂😂
I luv it
Very accurate
😂😂😂 classic
I love this guy but an age old rule is when somebody says I'm gonna be honest it means I'm not gonna be honest lol.

For a guy who wants to sell those jerseys he seems super uninterested in convincing a sale😂😂
That’s because he knew they were fake You could see it on his face at the end when he was leaving
😂
Dude was a special unit 😂
Exactly what I was gonna say, more interested in his dumb phone. He knew from the gate there were bootleg. Good catch Pete.
@@jasonfranks1096his dumb phone 😂
First guy 100% knew those jerseys was fake. Avoiding eye contact, didnt seem offended or shocked at all when called out for being fake
He didn't know it. Just was embarrassed I think
I don’t think we can say 100% bc we tend to act different on camera and it’s awkward.
for sure he knew ,wouldn't even give a smidgen of information about them,big scammer failure guy
@@planetfitnessca2334 embarrassed that someone caught him trying to scam lol

Definitely rabid in my experience! I think most record stores would buy a sealed Sonic Youth test pressing with enthusiasm.
Sonic youth is cult status. Just one of those bands that people will buy
@@nicholasserrambanaTest pressings aren't sealed.

Ah ha that's why you have Ruby - She's an attack bird to protect the store. Great training video! ;-)
Let's break out the EZ outs and dremels to fix something thats not broken.
I liked how Peter schooled them on how to seat a wrench.
In there defense they said they hadn't tried yet, and he obviously didn't want to make it worse before telling Pete

Pete: "See how this lettering on the "Reebok"... It's crooked."
The other man replies without even looking up from his phone
"Yeah you're right"
wait no thats not true..he was holding his phone but he leaned over and definitely looked!
Sonic Youth can be recognized as the start of the grunge era! Huge influence on Kurt Cobain!
Not influential stylistically so much. Then you're talking Green River, Mudhoney, TAD, The Melvins...

RTI is an audiophile record pressing plant in California. They mainly do repressings for other labels
When he sold the case to the helmet I knew for sure then he was aware of the inauthenticity.
It could have been real, but a Jay Cutler autograph ain't worth shit. 😂
Or he really really really just needed money. Not everyone that brings in a pie c e of questionable memorabilia is a piece of shit 😊
I have that same case for a Steve Largent helmet. Bought it at Micheal's on sale for $49 about 15yrs ago.
If this kid gave a shit at all about protecting that autographed helmet, he would've kept the case. It's pretty clear those autographs weren't real.
24:30 EXELLENT REASON TO GET THESE. NO COPY RIGHT THIS TEST MUSIC COULD BE USED IN YOU TUBE VIDEOS. VERY VERY AWSOME
These are test pressings of copyrighted music that has already been released. Unless there's some sort of hidden away secret recording from Sonic Youth that no one has ever heard about - that would be extremely unlikely, especially in the modern era of the band.

Sonic Youth was a pioneering NYC noise rock band starting in the 80s... wonder if th 97 record is A Thousand Leaves
😮 Beautiful marylin! Lmao ! 😅😅😅 Peter's accent is great < love it !😮 - Riddle < Not Ridell < 😅😅😅
At 12:00 could it be the guy steals a Hammer?😏
Good catch 😳
Definitely suspect
Indeed, just a side note he actually committed a double murder a couple months ago and wanna guess the weapon he used?......
Justin Fields lived in Kennesaw, Georgia. About an hour from where I live. The Sonic Youth 99 album may be Closing Time. Great song.

Not on eBay... Just looked and it's $300 or less for speed flex helmets
Maybe brand new but not resale lol

Blackhawks jerseys are some of the easiest in sports to tell if they're counterfeit. The crest on the front will be chain stitched on any of the authentic ones with the fight strap. Also, the thickness of the shoulder "C" is never right. Always too thin, and usually the wrong shade of yellow.
