Have you watched? What’d your think?
Idk why it took me so long...I RECOGNIZED the guy..I worked for a guy that had MS, loved watching shop at home late at night..Don West had Goldin on myriad times hawking cards and stuff 😆😂😂...guy is a reincarnated Buick salesman!!! I'm absolutely DYING over here!!!
I watched all the episodes from season 2. Really enjoyed it and all of the interesting people. Even got my wife watch 2 and she loved it.
I was holding off watching your review, until I saw the second season (which I now have).
I commented on your recap on the first season, and have since softened my view of Ken, Goldin, and the series (somewhat).
Like you, I find the series embellished in many ways, and view it as entertainment. I maintain that Goldin probably isn't a company I'd want to do business with (although, cash is king); however, I respect Ken's 'hustle', that he's responsive to complaints and concerns of customers, and his relentless quest for success (which, inevitably, results in higher results for those trusting him with their items). He has maintained relationships with some 'heavy hitters' for decades - and yes, it may be a mutually beneficial relationship for both parties, but he has kept them regardless.
Regarding that video game collection, if I recall, the cameras were inside the house when the owner was opening the door. As set up as a You Tuber filming himself walking on the street past his camera (which he then has to walk back off-camera and pick up). I'm not a video game man, but that collection was a jaw-dropper! I loved the way he had it set up. The man has an eye for detail and, like Pac Man, a relentless quest to gobble up everything in his path!
I enjoyed the series, but I wish there were more shows out there to compete with it. Looking forward to a third season (if they are doing one). 👍
@@Johndeplume. good review! I agree
Binged the show last weekend and enjoyed it. Only complaint was the absolutely insufferable soundtrack. We get it, Ken Goldin is the "NUMBER ONE KING HARD WORK BOSS HUSTLER" lol
I think your review is spot on. I binged all 8 today and really enjoyed it. Kinda bummed it's over now, but I did that to myself lol. The bid incoming thing is kind of cheesey but at the end of the day, it is a drama show on Netflix, and admittedly, it does kind of add to the suspense (especially with the Messi card, no spoilees). Overall though, yeah, all the characters are pretty cool and seem genuinely down to earth, and the guests are great, too. But that video game house.....just wow....
Yes!
I like the show but I find his daughter to be really obnoxious and too much of a jersey shore vibe to the whole show as well.
Been a while since I watched season 1 of the show, but I hated it. I thought it was void of authenticity and totally soulless. The show’s focus is more commissions than collectibles-which would be fine if they bothered to at least feign an interest or appreciation for the items and their owners, a la Pawn Stars or American Pickers, but Ken Golden & co. couldn’t be more obvious about what they’re all about.
And because Golden only deals in rare, big-ticket memorabilia, no transaction is ever a “feel good” one, because it’s either some average Joe getting hustled or some rich prick making good on another “wise investment”.
Just. Ick.
It’s just Pawn Stars with more annoying recurring characters.
Those awful, generic hip hop songs that play seem out of place. 😂
Interesting fact: Barry Bonds never once failed a test for steroids.
Yep
Neither did Clemens
So,just hgh then?
Bonds was the most talented ball player since Willie Mays. He has a H.O.F. career before the steroids controversy. He only participated in what MLB silently sanctioned because it made the game exciting ,and profitable again
Haven't watched the ken golden show but from your review it sounds like they're using the model that pawn stars setup. Having likable characters , making it educational, bringing in celebrities, etc
The Wemby video promise was so obvious and staged
Very staged but I still enjoy seeing the items.
Do you put the card in the small plastic sleeve and then in the penny sleeve? About to order
Card in penny sleeve and then into the semi-rigid or top loader
The video game house is only for storing the collection. Notice the kitchen. No one is living in that house.
Oh interesting. I hadn’t noticed the kitchen
@6:42 THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID 🥁🥁🥁 🤣😂again @8:27 👋🏻🎤 im crying 😭 lol
lol
You’ve never seen Storage Wars?
Never. Nor Pawn Stars or anything like that.
I enjoyed the first season. Especially seeing Ric Flair and his robe they sold. It takes some of the fun and intrigue out of the deals when you know they are set up or already done. Still, I’ll check out season 2! And yes, Ken comes off as a used car salesmen but the guy is super successful.
You are correct, the 1st season was nominated for "Best Collectors Series" but lost out to Pawn Stars
Antique Roadshow > Goldin
The cleopatra hand will end up being the biggest storyline of all of proven real.
All Goldin is in love with is money… sad human being
Bgs would grade the show authentic
While the items and negotiations are 99% real, it is scripted. No one would promise a seller that they would have Wemby do a video promoting a card unless they knew they could make it happen. Goldin "scolded" the kid and told him it was a rookie mistake to make a promise like that. Netflix is trying to appeal to the masses not just us who collect. That's why they feature his daughter. She comes across as arrogant with an air of superiority on the show, IMO. The new guy they added that authenticates their autos is great. I'm sure you'll hear more about him in the future. As I like to see 52 Mantles, T206 Wagners, Action Comics #1, Amazing Fantasy #15, etc., I'll keep watching.
Good points
I watched all 8 episodes from season 2. I didn't understand that "Bid Incoming" thing either. I think it was created too since usually you just see the amount change. I am surprised that many of these people with incredible private collections agree to be on the show. The Marvel Precious Metal Gems Green set that the owner wanted $1.2 million is on their site now starting at $100K. It seems the LimoJet didn't even get a bid at $100K. Definitely a fun show.
Yeah I think it’s ego for them to show off their stuff
Happy Father’s Day, Mike!! I have no kids, but will be celebrating my father tomorrow.
Thanks for the review, I still need to check out season 1 and I will very soon! I was piggybacking off someone else’s Netflix for years and got shut down last year. I literally just signed up for the 6.99 w/ ads last week lol.
$6.99 is a good deal!
Have you ever watched the video of Ken Goldin talking to Barry Bonds. It's like 2 hours long video. It's a side of Bonds that most people don't him to be. I've always been a fan of his and made me an even bigger fan.
Bonds is or at least was an avid cyclist. He would show up for group rides with regular people every day and they all say he’s an insanely nice, down to earth guy.
I did think the bringing of 10 mil to the guys home was weird and misjudged. Ken really didnt read the room well on that one
Gotta take big risks I guess
My only problem with season 2 is when the wagner psa 9 is brought up. Acting like it's the best card on the planet when anyone that remotely knows cards, knows that the card was altered and should only be an authentic. It's not selling for 50 million with that knowledge.
True
Thanks Mike for the review. I watch a ton of Netflix & never even heard of this series, but it just went to #1 on my watchlist. I’ll let you know how much I enjoyed it after your final review of episodes 7 & 8.
Great!
Thanks for giving me the info that King of collectibles had a season 2 ....I watched season one and enjoyed it so I paused your video went and Binged the entire season 2 pretty entertaining..it really proves to me to invest and collect vintage cards over new cards, you will usually do pretty well. Keep up the tremendous videos especially Attic find Fridays😂
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for another video! I saw season 1. I heard there is a season 2. I don't like the "manufactured drama" in the shiw nor with Storage Wars, but I know it sells. I would rather watch hours of you searching through the new collection you bought. Real drama, real person and real life.
Maybe soon!
Hello Mike Happy Father's Day to you as well, Enjoy your Weekend.
Thank you, I will!
Hi Mike, Happy Father's day to you. I have not watched any episodes yet. I might have to check it out.
Happy Father’s Day Jim!

Raised my daughter alone and absolutely love being lucky enough to be HER DAD!! 50 in August ...the Almighty Peanut has been out of the nest and is an amazing mother herself now...and boy do i ever miss those footsteps blazing through the house,the "CMON DADDY!!

Yeah man, Happy father's Day imdeed...
Happy Father’s Day, Bob!
@@JunkWaxHero right back atcha boss!
Happy Father's Day to u as well my guy 💪🏻
Appreciate it!
You may have forced my hand to try it again. I watched a few episodes from season 1 and found Ken super slimy. I loved the items and memorabilia, just not the characters.
Yeah I get that
Pure slime is right. He doesn’t care about the seller all he cares about is himself and how much he can make off a seller and trying to convince them to let it go
I just finished episodes 7 and 8 this morning.
You think the SGC Wagner is the Highlight? Wait until what’s coming up! It makes that Wagner look like, with all respect to it, like ‘small potatas.’
That’s crazy
@@JunkWaxHero I'd love you hear your response when you finally do finish the series. They are some beauties!
With that sgc being the highest real grade of that card, it still is. The backstory on the other one is great, but we all know now that it was altered and psa graded and slabbed anyway
