Say Nothing posted:Ebay? What's Ebay? Sure you could sell this on Ebay for $500 but that'll take at least a couple of days. I'll give you $50 and you can run down to the Venetian right now and gamble it away you filthy degenerate.

"I have all this computer I bought from a PC recycling center about a year or so ago that used to belong to Hillary Clinton. I want to see how much this is worth but I'm going to ask for $10000." "I've got to be honest with you, man, I don't really deal in computers because they've got too much that can go wrong. Here's the thing, if this were a computer that were owned by someone like Steve Jobs, people would care about owning it. But this is like owning a pair of tennis shoes worn by Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg's first bicycle, you know? I'm just going to have to have my computer guy format the hard drive and reinstall Windows, so that's gonna cost me money and going by the dates of all the emails on this thing, it's at least 6 years old and was used up until last year. That tells me one thing: The battery is almost dead, so that's more money I'm going to have to put into it to get to a point to sell it. Really, it's worth about $200 at best after I put in all my money and there's no way I can turn a profit on this. You'd be better just wiping the hard drive and letting your kids put Minecraft on it."

*before show* "Yeah, this rifle was used by George Washington himself, is certified, has paperwork dating all the way back. I'm not taking anything less than $10,000 since I take offers of $5000 every day and turn them down." *after show* "Well, I'm walking away with $50. I know I could have gotten more, but I'm already here and I didn't really want to put it back in my car"

I want to see what Rick will offer me for it..." *Sold for $10 to the old man* *Episode End* "Chumlee, you're making a mess all over the table with Chinese food..." "It's okay, boss, I set a placemat down. See, it's even got this funny little wax drink coaster that holds my can of Coke in place." "Placemat? Let me see that... Chumlee, you numbskull! That's was my one-way ticket out of Hell and you've done gone and ruined it!" "I thought it was fun funny Chinese placemat they rolled up and sent with the meal. I mean, look, it's in Chinese or Japanese, I think..." "That's LATIN you idiot! Does that look like Chinese to you?!"

Alright, I think it we need to mix it up again, only on this take, we'll use the take of that guy we visited at his house, told him his heirloom is a hunk of poo poo and lowball the gently caress out of him. Mix it up a little.

*"I've got some old tools I found in my dad's shed when we were cleaning up that I want to see what they'll give me for them..."* "Wow, I gotta tell you something, I don't know exactly what I'm looking at here, but just something tells me you may have something here but I'm not sure what, so if you've got the time I'd like to call in my tools expert." *"I'm C.R.L. Smith-Jones IV, my friends call me C4, and I operate Vintage Tool and Appliances out of Vegas. We operate the largest vintage tool and appliance museum in the state and and Rick called me out to look at some tools a customer brought in."* "These are the tools, C4. Tell me what you think..." "Ah, I see why you called me in Rick. These are Craftsman-brand tools and judging by the condition and quality, I'd say they were made in the mid 1980s. They're almost completely untouched, near mint. Tell me, how did you come across such fine examples of Craftsman hand tools in this condition?" "We were clearing out my dad's old shed and we found a whole bunch of them in a box." "From the condition of these tools, I take it your dad didn't build that shed did he?" *laughs*" "No, dad was not a handyman, but for some reason he said when he was about 35 he went and spent about $400 one year at Christmas to buy all these." "Hmm... You wouldn't happen to have any paperwork with these, too, would you? I mean, in the world of hand tools, documentation is like half the value." "No, I think we had a receipt but it was damaged and faded." "Oh, that's a real shame. You see, demand right now for vintage Craftsman tools is at an all-time high, especially in this condition, but having those receipts would make them worth so much more." "I have his old Sears card he bought them with." "Is it a classic 'half-sized' Sears credit card?" "I think so, it's a strange size compared to my credit cards..." "Hmm... Well, that's a thing on its own, but it doesn't really serve as paperwork. It might be a nice companion piece for these tools." "What would someone do with tools like this these days?" "Well, a set like this is a great display set. People showcase them in their garages, their dens, their basements. These have never been hotter than they are right now with the 30-50 year old crowd who want to have all these old tools they used to play around with as kids but their dads wouldn't let them touch." "Bottom line, how much are they worth?" "These tools, coupled with the credit card, I think at auction, without paperwork..... .... .... we'd be seeing about $400 for the set." "So, you heard him say $400, but I can't offer that because I still have to sell them and who know when someone is going to come in here looking for tools, and I'm going to have to sell all of them in a set and that will take time. So what will you take for them?" "$300?" "I'm thinking more like $40, because I'm going to sit on these for months and I might never sell them and what am I going to do with a bunch of sockets and tools and hammers and wrenches? I can go up to $50... These take up a lot of space and you feel how heavy they are? That's going to be a lot of work for me to move." "I don't want to put them all back in my car, so you've got a deal..." "Thank you. Chum! Come take all this and we'll go get all the paperwork..."

Rutibex posted:why would anyone sell their poo poo to a pawn shop, when they can get what the pawn shop would charge for it by selling it on craigs list I don't like interacting with poor people and felons. With a pawn shop they are probably felons but theres cameras n poo poo around. CL is only a semi civilized method of commerce in a college town. I don't use either because selling my old TV/electronics is literally not worth my free time.

I'd agree that success is dependent at location but unless you live in deep meth country in podunk methtown, it'd be fine. and yeah it's probably very dependent on what you're buying though, i don't really go for electronics but exercise equipment and (wood/solid) furniture is amazing.
