We had bought an Atmos at a garage sale. The owner thought it was broken but had inherited it so knew nothing about it. We took it to a Swiss clockmaker and he showed us it has a lock to the pendulum. It was in great condition. We paid $25. Sold for $1400. So do your research.
When I saw the Coleman lantern, it reminded me of one my father had. I don't know that he ever used it. I just remember it was in the original box on a shelf in the garage with the inscription "Hold for Mr. Wright" and dated July 20th, 1969. The same date as the moon landing.
5:15 - Damn, Pete, you look official with that dentist’s headgear unit right there. yes sir!
I inherited an Atmos clock and they are quite unique! You never have to wind it as it will run forever just on barometric pressure changes winding it. Hense, the name. Atmos!
That’s need! Now I want one.
Keep up the good work Craigslist hunter. ☮🦜🐈
Your prices were very kind.
Taping glass is a great idea, i always painters tape the glass in my pictures i sell to keep them from vibrating and breaking. I have never sold one of the lanterns.
The sword needs some restoration. But the money is in the scabbard. Swords seperated from their scabbards more times than not. I bet you could get at least what you paid for it out of just the scabbard. Love that plane too.👍👍
Morning Pete from Scotland UK 🏴🇬🇧
We love your videos so much
Pls put more new ones up Pete as we're finding it hard to see new things!!!
Many thanks Pete your the Best!!!
You guys can't cut Pete a break. Its either " you ripped that person off, your trash" or "you paid way too much for that". Either he's a fool or he's taking advantage of one. No way to keep the idiots happy.
Ehh I’m sure he don’t care he seems happy in what he does 🙂
Nobody said nothing bad in this video bro
he didn't say "i have to make money too you know... which he does often with customers... or...
how both items may take a while to sell, waiting for a specific collector that comes along, etc... both playing into
the price he'll offer her... I'll give you $200... (reaction) ... $100 for the clock, $100 for the sword.. hopefully I can eventually
make $400, doubling my investment, maybe $500 if I'm lucky... maybe right here in the shop... it's that simple...
so confused by this comment! Pete is always honest and says it like it is .
@@Abbie-UK I like and respect Pete. My comment was aimed at several other comments saying he paid too much for the sword. I know majority of the comments are usually positive but there is alot of people that seem to slam him no matter what. He either "paid to little and scammed someone" or he "paid way too much you're gonna lose money".
I really enjoyed the video, Pete. The Atmos clock I've sold 3, all not working, for $550, each. Great pickups my friend!
when I ship glass or other fragile items, I have learned to surround at least the breakable part with corrugated cardboard THEN use bubble or foam or other shock absorbing material. Sometimes I double box as well. Little tip, WD 40 will remove tape or other glue residue. (Dawn dish soap will remove the WD)
Like the way Honey jumps in "hang on, you filming? I got 20 million fans out there..."
What a flip on that airplane though, i remember you paying like $ 8 bucks for that...
smart move by Vicky too.. it is a really nice piece... and was just buried there at Goodwill
This is why I frequent goodwill shops, especially when stuff comes in fresh off the truck, and doesn’t have a price yet.
I bought the second Coleman lamp!
These clocks being $1,000 easy, up to 2 and 3 grand, she gave you potentially $1,000-$5,000 worth of good for 280, that’s awesome. Good find and you both ended up happy.
She got 80 not 280
Hey Pete great flip on the Colman lanterns I just bought 28 of them first two that sold paid for my investment. I just sold one of those clocks for 1600.00 on Etsy they are beautiful clocks make sure you lock it before you move it, will probably need to cleaned.
Gr8 sales from your Goodwill buy's Pete... Those items sold really fast and for good profit margins too... Also love that Clock and Civil War Calvary Sword they are really cool piece's... Well done again... Stay safe homie...👍💕🔥⚾😷
@pete you are a fair man when it comes to prices because every shop i have been to tries robbing the people coming in trying to sell, around here they would've gave her $20 for that sword
Pete - As other people have said that shield does nothing without a mask. The main purpose of a face shields is to protect the eyes only. Be safe.
In my Goodwill that lantern would be $24.99
Mine would be $99.99!!!
Awesome on the Art Deco airplane for $100. Nice.. I think it was a good buy at $200 for the sword. I'm glad you are taking to the expert. Never know it could be more story to it and of course the value will go up.. I know someone always think they can sharping the blade. Which is not a good idea. The clock was neat.. I'd definitely get it restored if it the right money to add value and it helps with the box as well. This is awesome Pete. I can't wait to see what the expert says. Thanks for sharing. P.S. Yes, Honey indeed love that box! lol
How could one not know anything about their uncle's Civil war sword?
That Lady took a BATH !
You paid over top dollar for that sword if the blade has been ground and the handle is screwy.
The small clock hand is not ment to be moved, you move the big hand to make the small hand move, otherwise you risk braking the clock.
ea
You stole the Atmos clock! Lucky guy. That clock winds itself, as stated in other comments, from the changes in air pressure.
When they go bad it's usually that it overwound due to heat cycling (heat up cool down in short time). The symptom is that the clock runs fast no matter how you adjust the regulator.
It must be set level and then you gently nudge the pendulum to the side to initiate rotation.
Great clock, WOW. Jesus you have the box and papers too!
Sheesh... $85 bucks for an Atmos clock, crazy deal for the store.
You paid great for that sword, they sell between 500-3000. I knew when you said it sold for 270 and offered 200 that you knew it could potentially bring double the 200 up to the thousands. Awesome deal Pete! You’re a great business owner.
Great tip about the tape on the glass. Thanks!!
A pencil eraser will help you read letters and numbers on tarnished metal.
She doesn't care; she just wants to know the price.
I can easily tell this man loves his job
Atmos Clocks Run On Barometer Pressure
Nice job, I love the Thrift stores man !
I find some absolute gold !
I found a 1927 Babe Ruth Baseball bat at the thrift store by me $2.99
I love your business man!
I would love this job because you see some really cool things sometimes.
A lot of cool history , and some crazy stories !
I don;t know about dealing with all of the idiots though . . .
The scabbard is worth more than 200
You never want to touch the blade on swords unless they are for performing marches and color guard type things. The oils on your fingers will make the blade rust. Good videos and great store sir.
They are great lanterns, wish I still had one, now have the one with the one pound tank and cost a lot more to use, even the old pump stoves were great, now all one pound tanks using propane, atleast they still sell the mantels for the old lanterns and fuel.
I love your kitty, she is a beautiful cutie pie!🐾😇🐈😘
The scabbard holds the sword. The groove along the length of the sword is the blood gutter.
Is an antique shop down the road from where I live called Blue Moon I got all types of fancy stuff antiques and whatnot those Coleman lanterns sell for 20 to 30 bucks a pop
Judging from the prices on eBay, you got the clock really cheap, to say the least, if you paid only $80 for it.
Jaeger-Le Coultre Atmos Perpetual clocks goes for hundreds of dollars, typically around 800-900, some even around 1.000-1.200 USD.
There are listed original Atmos styrofoam boxes (to pack them in), empty, that alone cost around what you paid for the clock.
Of course, I don’t know how long the clocks and the boxes have been announced and if they will finally get the asking price.
At Jaeger-Le Coultre’s webpage, they have three models for sale (I assume they are new) for $6.950, $9.100 and $27.900. So either way, it is clearly not just any clock maker.
Too bad the woman didn’t realise what a gem she had.
Hopefully your clock guy can tell you more about it.
PS: Yes, the hour handle felt stuck - it is not meant to be pushed. The gear ratio is very different from the minute handle, which is typical for mechanical clocks/watches.
Nice job with the goodwill buys... that sword was cool, hope you can get a good sale on it as with the clock. I just love Honey she’s so mellow, to let you cradle her like that in your arms she’s awesome!
I know Right shes so mellow and Awesome😅
I just bought two wristbreakers yesterday at auction, should have bought the other 8, but I cheaped out.
...Jager LeCoultre Atmos clock for 80$ ... whattt? That was a very cheap buy... those are premium watches... I think it's very easy to sell for 500$... it's from the 50s... a new one is 10k$
Can’t believe people are too lazy to google and do a little bit if research, madness.
It was a clock not a watch
The problem with checking sold items on eBay is that the ones that sold may be priced way too low. ✌🏼❤️🎸
Pete tells her all the details about the sword, but all she wants to know is what's in it for me. Still a couple honeys in the pocket for a sword, not bad at all.
Honey is like yep human you doing a good job
It would be cool if you had a picture of the sword itself for the thumbnail to match the title. Cheers!
Recommend if you use ebay for price checking that you take at least four prices off of ebay. Divide it by two and you should have an idea, but it is still not to be used as a starting point, way too many people charge rediculous prices for their items, or even try to take the customer for a ride. Make sure you use numerous sites for your prices, including antique sites, or retail stores, not ebay. Good luck and God Bless.
"Minimum pricing" of an average condition U.S. Model 1840 Civil War sword WITH scabbard is $450-$500. That's to start. The range goes from there up into the $700-$800 selling price. Sad that this lady didn't seem to know anything about the sword or care that she was literally giving it away.
'"yer, yer the tape, the years, the paper, the box...how about me look how cool I look!"
Such an awesome sword!!!
Maybe you have a guy who can bring it back to more of it's glory days.
That art Deco plane is worth every penny of the 99 bucks !
Wouldnt small bubble bubble wrap do the job for the glass ?
Hey Pete, when someone brings in an item and you go to your computer to see what you have, is it Ebay you're always using? Thanks for the time and great videos.
I wrap all my lantern globes in shrink wrap. Fast and easy.
That's a cool cat ! Beautiful.
Dumb question, but if I'm shipping a coleman lantern it needs to be drained beforehand, correct? If so, is it easy to do?
I shouldn’t have to answer this but most postal facilities prohibit the shipment of flammable or combustible liquids. It needs to be drained anyhow because of the lantern or whatever you’re trying to ship happens to get tipped on its side the liquid contacts could spill out and cause a hazard.
yes drain it.
Should call Mel Bernstein (dragon man) and see if he wants to buy that sword.
why are the red ones going for so much more than the green lanterns? i checked ebay and the red ones are selling for hundreds...
I love your T-shirts, where do you get these I had to ask?!
Put clear sticker plastic on counter top stops it scratching glass
Hey Pete, check out Tennessee Pickers channel, he just sold a clock very similar to the one you bought.
Sold it for 509.99
Always look forward to your new videos
the tape actually made a cool design lol
I just walked by one of those Colman lamps that someone threw in the garbage it was sitting right there on top
That clock is made by Jaeger LeCoultre and YOU KNEW that is a high dollar name. Those clocks used sell all day long for 500-800 with no problem. New they are in the thousands. Way to steal it from her by showing her the cheapest one that was probably a knock off or sold as a parts only clock.
Can you legit buy a sword from the Civil War era for a couple hundred bucks or are these replicas?
The real deal. Condition and provenance are huge factors in price.
That clock is worth around 800$ USD to 1.3K USD .... and I think the sword is worth alots of $$ but due to condition :/ most prob it’s cheaper
Honey is helping with lamp :-)
man if pawn stars can make money on video so can you. great channel.
That Atmos clock went for 1500$ to 2500$ back in 1979 and you were not Supposed to take the glass off these clocks have been sold for as much as 5 to10 thousand it’s a shame she didn’t know what she had I knew
About those clocks when I was 17 years old before the 80’s mostly Presidents, Governor’s and political owned these
That really means 0 what will it sell for in now? He paid what he thought it was worth. Let us see how much it sells for first?
Love the shirt
Common wealth shirt
It's called a fuller, not a bleeder.
Exactly, and it was a stump chopper that a kid beat the hell out of back in the 50's or 60's. Very common to find in that condition. Most likely solingen import, never saw combat. They used to hand them out to veterans at reunions. Cool but not a collector piece.
Peter my man it's not called a bleeder it's called a fuller
That's a cool sword
Love it..
$280 on the clock and sword and she would of taken $100 a piece for both items...
ill call my expert have you got 2 mins
Your cat is beautiful!! I love cats.....
That is a cavalry saber.
That may be a Confederate sword, Union ones that were military issue always have the US logo... confederate swords do not have any logo most of the time. Might have a maker's mark, but no Confederate logo. One that has a CS on it is probably fake.
Nice
look at the german page chrono24.de, jaeger-lecoultre atmos... about 2500-3500 euros 😁
I forgot to mention I own this clock and I wouldn’t sell it for less then $3,000
That was rare unless you have a TV show.
When it comes to lanterns, I sell quite a few and I take special care with the globe. That being said, All my returns are for the globe getting broke in shipping I can tell that some people will bid and win a lantern with the globe just to ask for a return because the globe was broke. Bottom line is they paid nothing just to get a intact globe to replace their broken one they had. No way to say it didn't happen in shipping so I get back my lantern with their broken globe. A scam for sure. Now i only sell lanterns with no glass. People can buy it in another auction if they want. Lessons learned.
Can't you put a hidden mark on it somewhere? Buy a handheld engraver and put an inconspicuous mark on it.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE BIRD???
As someone who lost two loved ones to Covid 19, PLEASE WEAR A MASK. You had a long conversation with that lady and that “shield” doesn’t do anything for you or her (especially when you lift the shield up like that) 7:52
Oh shut up! I was waiting to see the Karen comment. Guess what buddy the little piece of toilet paper you wear doesn't do anything either.
@@davidbillera9296 ... A face mask is not a “little piece of toilet paper”. The CDC has said mask are effective. Being ignorant doesn’t allow you to make up your own facts.
Funny how its viral “Karens” the one who refuses to wear a mask and says they aren’t effective.
@@davidbillera9296 what an ignorant idiot haha 😆 have fun being on a ventilator
@David, you're either 12 or your IQ is 12. Take one class in biology and you'll retract your comments.
@@williamwoods8022 I did do research. This is basic common sense but you refuse to acknowledge FACTS. I guess common sense is not as common anymore.
That face cover is meant to be worn with a mask. The particles can and is still coming out on the left, right, and bottom of the the face cover. And why would you take off when you’re so close and talking to that lady? Putting her and whoever she comes in to contact with at risk?
lmao id be so pissed if you packed my lamp like that literally does nothing what you did except make it sticky
You forgot your mask/screen in the time you was dealing with the sword.
Stay safe.
@@williamwoods8022 Another self-proclaimed expert. Just what everyone needs.
@@williamwoods8022 guess you have toned it down as you don't want them to take your channel down AGAIN lol
Nicola S will keep you safe.........the wee cranky lol
@@williamwoods8022 an idiot with a copy and paste comment haha sad.
The pandemic is fake. Stop talking.
@@captaindiaper2210 put some content in your account... no vid no credibility lol FAKE Captain D
Pete we all love you, wear a mask not a face shield. Those do nothing. I know masks suck to wear but in the end it will seem that for a small inconvenience it will be worth it.
Masks don't work either. Over 85 percent of the people who got it wore masks most of the time. The good thing is the death rate has plummeted and the survival rate is over 95 percent
Using a cloth mask to stop a microscopic virus is like using a chain link fence to stop mosquitoes.
@J S Better than injecting lysol 🤣
They dont work. Open your eyes
@@Sillysoft May we see your medical degree please?
What is a 'swaard.' is that any relation to a sword...or as we pronounce it correctly, 'Sord.' I'd love to hear this gentlemans edgeamacashun. Apparently it's a Calvary Swoord.' Hahahahahahahaa. It is not a sword, it is a sabre as used in the Boer War, and is a dress sword.....for parades...not for fighting....and as he says, looks like someone tried to sharpen it. That would be true.
Good job my nigga
Ceiqm is England
Mark P> Hall , Beard of knowledge from Pawn Stars would know the history of that sword. :D
you're mask pete :( at least keep the shield up
Don't you mean down?
🎉💝
9:00 why wear the face mask ?
