Yeah, the general 'rule' is to shoot from the hip around 50% the expected value. For auctionable items this drops a bit... but not down to 25%. He must have had some sort of read on the guy thinking he'd take much less... or maybe he didn't want to fiddle with it for anything less than a nice big payday. Either way, I think the guy should have kept it.
Unless you are in a hurry and want cash fast. Many people are in that boat. It's the old saying, give a broke guy 100k, in a year he'll be broke. Give a rich guy 100K, in one year he'll have 110K.
I think the Royal Society or some place in England would've paid him the full 20,000 for it. I mean for god's sake it has Newton's handwriting in the inside cover.
@Jew Tube 20k in an auction on a good day = 12k ish for you in hand. and thats just what they have sold for usely they sell for less and pawnshops need to make money to so 5k is low but never take the first offer they always lowball 7k could be fair tbh but still if you got the time sell it yourself
Later at dinner, the old man ordered 8 pounds of wagu filet steak and a side of lobster stuffed with caviar washed down with a 200 year old bottle of Irish whiskey.
people who go to pawn shops are desperate they cant afford to sit around wait for a buyer to show up. people who run pawnshops know this its why they can get away with ripping people off so often
@@dudex233 what I am saying is he gave up too quick the expert already said it could go for 20000, The Old Man would have easily bought it for 10,000, if the seller would have pressed him a little bit more
So agree; it is actually so humiliating to even price a book like that... we are talking of Isaac Netwon for God's sake... and even worse to accept an offer so low. In my humble opinion, those are things that should never be sold and/or should belong to a museum or public library.
Obviously the book is worth more than 20k, considering the expert has a relationship with the pawn shop, I'm not shocked if the actual value is like 40k
But he’s the one that accepted the deals. The only the one to blame is himself, don’t try to blame the pawnstars for trying to make money for their business, they were straight toward to offer them that much . You still HAVE TO REMEMBER, the deals on the show is real, everything is upon the sellers decision to either sell it or leave it, the history channel aren’t making you do a performances on your personal item from what you’re trying to do from the start
@@coffeelink943 The deals are not real. The show is scripted, and everyone knows what items are coming in. I think of it as a skit. Just for entertainment.
When you see those types at a Pawn Shop counter just go somewhere else, if you do the Pawn Shop thing. I was young and broke and in college, I had my dealings with a few.
might sell it not that big into alchemy but defintily not at 1/3 the price you can donate it to any univeristy for more than auction price in tax deduction
@@teemuleppa3347 You do know that the information on which parts are scripted and which aren't is publicly available? Because it sounds like you just wanted to feel soooo smart without educating yourself in any way beforehand
The old man was the king of the lowball. Rick's top dollar is almost always about 55-60 percent of his experts lowest number, and Rick would have been a lot more interested in this book than the old man was. I think he could have got 12 if Rick was the one negotiating
This show is one of the reasons I shifted from prelaw and into fine arts lol Ive watched some of your episodes since I was a kid and yeah Im so happy you guys are here in youtube 🙋🏻♀
Why is everyone obsessing over a lady book expert? I get that she's hot but come on people... Get a grip on yourselves. That's why they invented adult websites ya know.
He finds Newton's book wrapped in bubble wrap, yet brings it in not wrapped in anything and no gloves. Even I would be to scared to not take precautions.
Old man is the goat of negotiation. He would’ve gladly paid 10k for it, but he could sense that the dude needed cash and he needed it quick. Settled for 7
Greetings. It is with great pleasure that I learned a lot from the information that is presented in all the videos that I follow closely and with unparalleled enthusiasm. I wish you success and progress in your work.
The only book in existence of the greatest scientist to walk this earth goes for 7k? I would have left knowing 20k was its real value and bring it to an auction.
This old man always gets a lot of love in the comments section. As an old man myself I’ve met many like him. If it weren’t for Rick he would be just another pawn shop , ripping off desperate gamblers for their rolexes and gold chains.
Only $10k? You could easily get anywhere from $12-$15k at another place. Or if he auctioned it off or sold it to a museum, he could easily get $30k and up.
It is in great condition. It was restored in the 1700s, but being that intact with the original bookmark folds is incredible... And even having a restoration that old hold up shows it was treasured for a long time. And now it's in a pawn shop. Unless none of this is real... Can anyone in Las Vegas go check and see how many museum quality pieces are in their shop?
I cannot believe this guy didn't walk away laughing after the insulting offer of 25% of the appraisal. You have the most influential physicist's personal book. Just, wow. Bless the Old Man, but wow that was an all-timer for low offers.

waaaa i want it but it will be so high
Old man's was an even bigger cheapskate then rick EXPERT.. its worth 20k Old man 5 k not a penny more that's a rip
The Old Man was brutal here. Even Rick would have offered 10k for a 20k auction price item.

That's Vegas for you. Moths to a flame.
Just not to the old man 🤣🤣 Rick wouldve offered atleast 10k

if u dont want to watch it then dont watch it stop being a little girl and complaining
This was ridiculous
I think he should've kept it and started an auction at 10k
I think the Royal Society or some place in England would've paid him the full 20,000 for it. I mean for god's sake it has Newton's handwriting in the inside cover.
Right. Unfortunately we’re totally and literally surrounded by fools who don’t think like us.
40% on that (normal auction fee would give him 6k at minimum) so that would be a risk. Starting it at 12 k would be better
Sometimes it's better if you try to sell it yourself. The seller just has no idea... pawn shops are for people who need money NOW!
@Jew Tube 20k in an auction on a good day = 12k ish for you in hand. and thats just what they have sold for usely they sell for less and pawnshops need to make money to so 5k is low but never take the first offer they always lowball 7k could be fair tbh but still if you got the time sell it yourself

Can not believe he gave it away for 7k. Never be desperate.
The old man is a legend tho 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Desperate men do desperate things. Always be careful of that
Yeah, I'd have tried to sell it myself. He probably could have gotten at least 15,000 via private sale, or even over 20k at auction.
