The Real Deal

[jbrooks]

So for any who caught History Channels newest reality show, what did you think was the deal with "The Real Deal"?  Did anyone else who watches all of these auction/pawn shows notice the same guy is popping up selling on all of them? He's a tall dark haired guy, prob early 40's.  I noticed him on Pawn Stars a few times, then Auctioneers and now he's on this show

I watched some of it tonight. One question I had was, "What about seller's fees?"  For example, there was a guy selling a SpiderMan pendant. He was offered $300 and decided to go to auction with it. It brought $450 and he was glad that he "made $150 more" than the pawn shop guy offered. I'm sitting here thinking, "What about the fees? You don't get to pocket all $450".

I said the same thing to my wife, the auction house is probably taking %20

Ha Ha...... You nicked that one from us.. We've had the "Real Deal" for years... Along with
Cash in the Attic, Boot Sale Challenge and about 40 others of the same genre...

Give me Pickers and day.
