“I have alot of stuff at my house and I’m not attached to it.”
Buddha: good good
Haha!
Clever
Saying attached to it and not them makes a lot of difference.
That professor is probably the most legit expert he has on the show. He has an actual doctorate degree, a doctor to his title. A professor in the relevant field.
Yet you say that but the man couldn't even count the 11th head lmao
He's got a great moustache too
@@ss-vo6jy Lol you can't even count to ten
@@retrokingdomgamesandarts1998 I do not even remember posting this lol, was 2 years ago
@@ss-vo6jy I was looking for this comment!
his house warming gift is worth $10,000? he got some friends.
Got it at a garage sale so I think NOT
He didn't want to take it back home, that's what that was.
penitent2401 haha true
Looks like he is fake with his story
Lil Peep LMFAOOO
Moral of the story never give this guy gift
He will sell it......
Dungeon_Master That is exactly what I thought. What an ungrateful piece of dog filth.
So if I gift you lets say... a flag with a swastika on it, you'll keep it right?
@@BaconSenpai Yes Hindu, Sikh, Bhudhist and Jain all will keep that flag.
Because Swastika is our holy symbol.
We never saw western world abandon Cross because christian killed many during crusade or KKK are using cross.
ISIS used Islamic Kalma and that is not banned.
Next question?
I guess I should have clarified, a Nazi flag
@Bacon Yes, because if the flag offended you in the first place you don't accept it.
I also love how you're equating a buddha statue with a nazi flag.
The expert looks like the guy from Jumanji
Sami Navaid or from Tarzan.
Perfect!
yeah huh???
Van Pelt!
Look him up , he make that guy looks bad😂
I’m a Tibetan Buddhist and I would’ve definitely kept that statue or given it to a gompa.
TenRowena me too. Haha they never turned it over to see the work underneath or to see if it had been filled/blessed by a lama
Interesting
I'm NOT a Tibetan Buddhist and I would have kept it or gifted it to the professor.
I would have gave to museum cause it is sold artifact and its bad
THE MARTIAL ARTS CHANNEL gomba is Tibetan word for Monastery
This show should be called "Let me call a buddy"
Nope, let me call a Buddha.
Nope
They sell this in India for like 100 bucks
Nope, it should be, " Better Call Buds"
Should be called, I’ll give you 5% cause I’m taking all the risk.
His friend probably saw this episode and regretted giving him that gift
Right! That sad his friend gift him something meaningful, but if he got his permission to sell it maybe for financial reason then I see why not 😫
Well he has a reason, hes not a Buddhist. Its not like he hates it
@@Alan-su5bg it's called gift u idiot
Giving gift means to treasure that thing as their memories 🙄
@@Alan-su5bga buddhist might have sold it that’s how it ended up in the USA, when money is tight, people do all sort of stuff. Saying this as a tibetan buddhist from the himalayas.
Dude peolly bought it for 500$ and prolly made in the 1970s this is nepali handi work
Your friend gave you a gift & you sold it. Amazing.
so what? the guy didn't like it and found out it was worth a good amount of money. why not sell it and get stuff you actually enjoy?
He's gotta get money for that neck surgery
Buddha teaches you let it go
I like how the expert was excited to give a history lesson on the statue, and Rick was like “yeah, yeah, yeah, just what’s the price on it”
I’m not even Buddhist but that craftsmanship is stunning!
I'm not a Buddhist, but that's a beautiful peace of art and what he said about it makes it more comforting. I don't have alot of money, but I would probably keep it tbh.
Man that statue is beautiful. I would love to own it.
i can provide u one..give me a call..+9779862368943
I know were you can buy it!
go travel, see lots of them in asian market.
Diana Mitford you just said that lol
Go to Chinatown they're a dime a dozen
In the vein of the Buddha, this Buddha statue should be gifted to the professor, he loves and appreciates the history and value of it!
The seller looks like Dikembe Mutombo and Tracy McGrady 😂😂😂
Imagine all of ricks ‘friends’ and ‘buddies’ all in he shop at once
Already happened
The expert looks like he’s on his way to a steampunk convention. Epic mustache bro 👌👍
He puts Cam Newton to shame with his attire
selling a gift is kinda rude tho 😳
but maybe its new owner will appreciate it more 🤗
No if your getting 10k
well not really, because "refuse" a gift is consider rude.
how you're gonna deal with with it is all on you man.
The gift doesnt even match his religion, he has no use or reason to have it
I'm sure the friend would be less offended he sold their gift, and more angry they accidentally gave him a 10,000 dollar statue as a housewarming gift.
Your emojis are hilarious
his friend could've given it as a house warming gift because his friend might be Buddhist and had given the statue as a way of 'praying over'/'safeguarding' the house and he ends up selling it? 🤨
or maybe the original owner inherited it, didn't know its value, didn't like it, and thought hey, ill give my buddy this ugly Buddha thing that's been collecting dust because I'm not religious.
Pawn Stars is awesome thank you for the videos
Trades in priceless artifact to go shopping for worthless junk....
thats the american culture for ya
Yes because I would rather have a neat statue I don't care about than food.. or housing
It's not a priceless artefact though? The price is 10 grand.
2ruthfox82 Welcome to Capitalism
You don't know what the word priceless means.
Tibetan`s treasure ! Priceless !!!
Rick always has a friend who is an expert
Yea . Always an expert available at any time. Expert who is:
nearby
free to come
able brief the item and price
This person making story of every piece of items in the world. He trying to lend or borrow from whoever to do video.
Customer: "Hey, I'm looking to get change for a dollar bill."
Rick: "I can give you 63 cents. I'm taking a risk."
most over-used line in pawn shop clip history...think of something original.
Barack Obama: I'm looking to get change for a country
People: we can give you Donald Trump and we are taking a big risk here
Anonymous Person yup! I see this comment in every pawn shop video lol
i think he should phone an expert on dollar bills first.
Dude that line is so old and way over used.
If you are looking for attention then come up with something original.
There’s maybe 50 of these left in the world. $7500 is an insult to the adalocivarteshvara Buddha statue community.
That's a very specific community.
So why can’t they just make more copies?
@@Tyler-Bravo bruh my local sculpturer will done it only for less than 1000$ are you joking me ?
these are actually from tibetian region but exactly from Nepal, Mustang. In period of 100 year more than of 100 stupas were looted and thousands of status and scripted dated to 11-13 th century were illegally sold in international market. In museum of US and Uk they are kept and each are worth $65000- millions of dollars.
These style of metal statues are only produced in Kathmandu Valley and especially in Patan. I'm sure this statue was made by a Newari artist/sculptor.
Now thats a nice wedding gift and garage sale find. Wonder if Rick would have went higher. Was fun to watch. Great video
I like how the expert really seemed interested
Lol @ "I'm taking a serious risk at this" Well, it was his choice to open a pawn shop
Expert: This is 10 dimension Buddha with affection to humanity. Very sacred form and someone who is sent back to help people
Rick: Yeah! How much is it worth!
11th dimension
Quite the friend to hand over such a nice gift...
Always a great video when you see Dr. Phineas Kastle around!
The expert looks a real expert. I like this expert.
I would be happy if my friends give me pack of gum.
Oh, how i love your videos.
I would love to have that as a housewarming gift😁🤗
What's fascinating about this video is that there's one guy who is totally excited about the culture, the meaning behind expressions and other is......"I'm just going shoppin...."
He's pretty ungrateful for someone who's received a $10k house warming gift.
That was such a beautiful piece, I woul've preferred to keep it to be honest.
Beautiful piece
Rick's phone a friend helpline is thicc.
In Tibetan world, if you sell Buddha statues we consider very inhuman. Plus this guy got it from a friend who gave Buddha status as gift.
Putting it up for sale in Ricks shop gave the message to tens of thousands of people who might have never heard otherwise.
How do you get a Buddha statue then? Does that mean all shops that sell them are bad?
i think every religion, some thing from them is considered priceless
Maybe, quit owning and worshipping statues then ??
Almost all Tibetans have atleast one of such statues in their homes and I'm definitely sure those statues din't just pop up out of nowhere.
All that superstitious beliefs are pretty stupid in the 1st place.
@@eJohndoe I think wad he trying to say is religion is not for sale
Anyone else love these experts?
I want to see an episode just on them
Antiques from Nepal is always cool.
I think Rick hit a jackpot, 18th century Tibetan Buddha in this condition goes for more than $40k in auctions
do you think that 18th century artifact can be a good condition like that? we are talking about century not a decade. supposed to be that artifact become a dull or something
@@elmergarcia1118a dull, what do you mean?
Everybody in here pointing out there's 11 heads like they're the enlightened buddha of the comment section.
Well the guys was suppose to be an expert.... Also I'm a Buddhist and straight away I know it was Avalokitesavaras 11headed 4 armed avatar and this guy didn't even mention it. Kinda points towards maybe he's not exactly an expert.
@@dcsmall1 No, the expert said there were 10 world's above ours. That doesn't include ours. 10+1=11
Battlelord 5055 exactly
@@fhh969 11 heads are 11 dimensions.
that statue originated in nepal
I like to see follow ups on some of these!!
3:46 Goddammit they got us!
10-15k worth of a house warming gift....really
Dumbass sold it
Booyahkahshah shah the man got paid he’s not a dumbass.
The guy who gave it to him didn't know it was worth that much. He found it at a yard sale
It's a nice piece and certainly one of a kind. I would have kept it.
Even if you are not Buddhist.
Just by taking care of it, you will truely be blessed in this current life as well in all the life you will be born.
Says he's not a Buddhist, then says he has a lot of stuff at his house he's not attached to. 😂 the sweet irony of life.
🤣🤣🤣
I wouldn't sell that! It would be so epic to have this in your living room!
Of course Rick has a “friend” for everything
I would love to own this it’s beautiful
i dont know how he get that as a gift from his friend ..and yes many of the old tibetan statue has been stolen or taken during or after the invasion..so if that statue is really old and from 17th century like the expert said.( cause here i didnt feel like he gave a good look on it, probably just by his naked eyes he guessed its old as he is an expert ,so i cant say much)then it really gonna cost more than 10000 grand..because even am not an expert but the statue is more than 12inches and in a good condition. cause even the new statue are expensive if the quality is good.
I guess guss fring needs some money since hes in a pawn shop
This is funny dude
Spoiler alert:
He's gotta pay the hospital bill for all those 3rd degree facial burns.
That is some special friend.
I love how his hat is tilted like that!!!
I think Rick was all giggles and grins wirh this buy. It looks more like $30,000 to $40,000 at auction to me. Just sell it to Julie Chin, i hear she's just hit the jackpot!😀
Anyone also curious how many “friends“ Rick got 😂😂😂😂
hahah ya man
As many as the episode produced
Real friends?
"I have a buddy" - RICK EVERY TIME
I know a guy.... from Craigslist...
New to Pawn Stars, most videos I see leave me "Chum, what a putz!!!!! Now and then 😂
Expert: this is a rare Buddhist artefact from the 1750s and it’s worth about 10-20K
Customer: what’s the best you can give me?
Rick: I’m taking a risk here but...... I’ll give you...... a tootsie roll
Malicious Megan deal
Two tootsie rolls...
1750's? Something nearly 300 years old? I mean 7 grand is tempting, but I'd hold onto that. You never know where it'll end up or if it'll be preserved and taken care of.
The bronze statue are made in Nepal, you can find these statue in Tibet is because since long time Nepal export these different Mahayana buddhism statue for trade. I know this because I am from the family that produce these arts. Tibet and the indigenous people of Kathmandu i.e. Newar are the only Mahayana buddhism followers remaining in the world. If you visit Nepal you can explore these god in big size from 7ft to 12ft dated back about 1000years as this is a part of the culture that we indigenous people from Kathmandu follow.
Awesome pce 👍very unique
let me call a friend to help you with the price not the history lol 🤣
It's definitely from Nepal too 🙏
Yup.. that was definitely made in Kathmandu Valley by the skilled metal crafters whose descendents still make such pieces especially in Patan
expert looks great 😃
This expert is awesome
Friends and family members of this guy must have discovered the true side of their beloved one.
He claimed the statue to be a gift from his friend and frankly said that he does not feel any attachment with it, but when it comes to putting a price on the statue he used it changed his color and used it as a reason to explain why the statue so valuable to him.
is that MC Hammer selling his statue? lmao..they make a nice couple him and the Dr.
Rick always laughs before making the low ball offer. Then he comes up a little bit and tells the person that this is his last & final offer.
What a great piece. I would never sell it!
theres 11 heads , a little one at the top of the last one
Nice
What kind of friend sells a house warming gift, no friend. No friend @ all. HaHaHa
The expert is actually a time traveller from 19th century England.
How come his buddies are always free anytime he calls them in.
Maybe because these scenes are planned and scripted 6 months in advance?
Thanks for acknowledging the fact that Buddha was born in Nepal. May the peace of The Buddha prevail on Earth.
i also have same kind of sculpture which 10 years old and that is 15 years old brought from nepal where i live...
I want one of these Buddha !
Rick woulda got a "NO DEAL" from me....
The”expert” doesn’t know how to count. There are 11 heads. The expert is full of it.
May be another head is not of Buddha but Kirtimukh... Just a possibility
@@psuyog 11th head is of Buddha and 10th heads are of Bodhisattva.
@@psuyog 11th head is of Buddha and 10th heads are of Bodhisattva.
‘I have a friend stars’
It looked like Rick was telling the statue to follow him LOL
Actually it is considered as national treasure so you can't sell it u know that is illgal
The “experts” pronunciation hurts me as a Buddhist
Same
Yeah the "expert" is a just a showman. Just look at his Facebook page.
Well then you have some growing to do...
Beautiful sir
Wow!
People in this show have the shittiest taste. I would have been thrilled to receive such a gorgeous piece of art!
2:21" we have ten " um nope there is one little buda head on the very top kinda hidden
At 4:54 did he just say seventy five thousand dollar ,he just gone nuts
Buddha and Mr Brown got along famously
Its well know in Tibetan circles that Buddha got along famously with Mr Brown
Now I know where do the statues stolen from temples of tibet and upper Nepal are smuggled.
Last episode the guy was something else...
We can't be attached to material things and I get it some gifts do have a priceless sentimental value. Just boils down to what it means to you.
This is a rare piece. I offer $ 12500 for this anytime. It would sell for more than a million in ten years.
i will provide u this statue..give me ring on +9779862368943
I highly doubt it would make a value jump like that...lol
I highly doubt anything will go from $10,000 to $1,000,000 in a ten year period lol.
These statues are really common in Asia You can see them on the market all day
