lol. The Cubs plates that you didn’t want to buy because they won’t sell end up getting sold. It’s funny that the guy was like “those are gonna sell fast” after watching the video where you said the opposite.
2:55 Hey Pete. I have a couple Louis Vuitton wallets. I heard your comment about the tag inside. They do not always have a tag inside. Especially the bifold cardholder types. Nor do they have a type of “serial number”. However you’re correct on the construction. The way the edges are finished, the absolute perfection of the stitching, the symmetry of the entire item, the fitting of the various pieces. The construction and assembly definitely give it away in reference to real or fake. I can send you pictures of the things I’m saying if you’d like. Just wanted to note there isn’t always a tag or serial number affixed to the wallets and cardholders. And as I say, proof of purchase is king as there ARE some really nice fakes. (I will also say the bag and the box are not quite as awe-inspiring as the leather good itself. Those two items have never made me think “this is top tier quality.)
Hello Peter, I enjoy your videos very much. I had a 2nd hand and music store in the late 90s...one of the things that would drive me crazy would be, when negotiating with a seller, someone in the store would come up and offer more than my offer to the seller. I would then get agitated and let that person know how inappropriate that was and there had been a time or two that the argumentative ones were banned from the store...How would you handle this situation? just curious...Thank You.

Pete has a calm way of dealing with people like that. That's why HE''s still in business, and you're not. It takes a special person to deal with the public.
Dave, a No Soliciting sign on the door solves the whole problem. Remember, soliciting's definition includes the purchase of goods and/or services. Hard to have a leg to stand on when there's a sign before they even walk in.
Pete you need to invest in one of them metal detecting guns, so instead of grinding away at stuff, it will just scan what ever metal it is and tell you exactly what kind of metal it is, and how pure it is also, just a suggestion
Those things are way too expensive for the little bit of precious metal pete deals in. He's not buying and selling 1000s of dollars in metals in which case it'd be worth it
@ yeah that’s a good point, but he may actually buy a lot more gold and silver off camera that he doesn’t film idk 🤷🏻♂️ but yeah if he doesn’t deal too much in it, then your right it wouldn’t be worth buying one
It's very common for people to cover a cheap metal in gold to fake it. And that completely fools those extremely expensive metal detectors because those only can look a tiny bit deep. If you watch other pawn shop/metal youtube channels they literally cut or make a massive gash in every piece they buy, even if the detector says it's 20k or whatever. And they find a ton of well made fakes.
@@josephgood2704 That's also an indicator for other shops if they ever rebuy that same piece, it helps other shops know it's real because it was tested before. Only in rare cases do pieces get retested.
@@toxichazmat5785 People who sell to a reseller either don't want to sell it themselves or need the money. Those of us capable of listing and selling things ourselves are the type of people who wouldn't sell things to a reseller.
He does well, but his net worth is mostly all on paper. The RUclips def helps. It would take half a lifetime or a suspicious fire to get rid of all that stuff..lol
@briansierzega It's not Pete's fault by any means, I'm just saying people waste so much of their resources on things like that. Today's episode, there is a kid somewhere that has dreamt of owning a Hawks jersey for years, wouldn't it be better to donate a jersey to a children's hospital or the like.
@@Ray_LaFleur oh yeah! I overlooked the hawks jersey. But yes, I totally agree with you on that! Maybe they just wanted their name and contribution to make the vid?? Somebody else would totally appreciate that while our guy here probably had a price tag on it 5 min later. 😐
@@Ray_LaFleur I think you underestimate how much people like 'being part of the show' and getting their name read out and stuff like that. Same with livestreamers getting huge donations.
People do not realize that they are mistreating their animals with treats We have five cats and they are just being so treated or should I say mistreated it is unreal but that's what people's belief is that they are doing justice to something when they're actually doing something horribly wrong and you can't get you people to understand that Oh well keep doing your thing people HOUGIE eagle
To me there is more than one way to look at a helmet if it's brand new looking been sitting on a shelf somewhere it never went to a war warworn would be what you want but then prove that HOUGIE Eagle

Geddy Lee buying a amp was priceless
LOL...beat me to it.
It's a German Firefighter Helmet. They used ex-army helmets and just painted them black.
Very cool knowledge
My brother gave me a genuine Kraut Helmet in the mid-60's .... I traded it to a friend for something dumb and I bet he still has it
Cool to know! I bought it that way and assumed someone did that postwar!

I think he should have brought the chrome railroad spikes too... kinda neat.
@@simmonsrenos9111 I thought so as well, they looked neat.

The stories that go with the items is the real treasure. Another great video guys. Have a great day everyone
I remember a long time ago you went on the road to buy from people's collections, those were great videos, looking forward to them
i hope you guys hit 500k subs by the start of next year
me too
Excellent Pete 🇰🇵❤️
You gotta appreciate the young guy coming in knowing exactly what he had and exactly what it was worth.
I'm not really sure why he doesn't just sell this stuff on ebay himself though.
@@toxichazmat5785 sometimes people need fast money. Things happen. Bills to pay, life is expensive.
How much for the gold chain?
Helmet is re-issued fire department- they painted them black
I bought a shirt when I stopped in last summer. Very high quality and comfortable. It's one of my favorite shirts to wear.
OMG 😱 Was that Geddy Lee from Rush in the black n yellow jacket 😂
Looks and sounds very similar!!
not even close, get your eyes checked (i hope you were joking lol)
@@MarkVirgultoI thought the exact same thing, except his hair is way shorter than Geddy’s. Of course Geddy could have gotten a haircut.
Oh Please! lol
Thank you
Good thing boss man came in on the gold chain bold dude was totally wrong thought it wasn't real
I’m sure he knew it was fake. If not then his sister selling fake purses and wallets at retail store is crazyyy!
Holy pete made a killing on that chain
Foreigner tax
Noah , did it because we love your patients with customers, You are so honest

Should visit some other shops like yours and check out their collections if you're on the road.

something tells me that chain was robbed off a someone, lol
A Downs syndrome pirate ?
51.4 g of 14 karat gold is worth $2552. He payed him $1700. That guy was stupid to sell the gold there.
Dang im in wrong business.
Ya pete made a killing on that
Your math checks out 👍🏻
They def should have negotiated that up to at least $2K or walked…
I mean, I wouldn't sell anything to Pete even though I like him and like the channel. Reselling to a reseller gets you no money.

Hi Pete
Great deal on the WW1 helmet, Pete! I always check to see if it has that rolled edge just to make sure it isn’t Spanish.
That necklace doesn't just mean it's for a sailor it could also mean someone that is into sobriety, the anchor is also a symbol of sobriety.
Someone could also just really like anchors lol
13:15 on the road....
13:20 on the road...
I'm guessing he's going on the road?
that helmet guy looks and sounds freakishly like the dude from GoldMine Thrift Finds
Not bad ⚡️
Next time you need help with Spanish or Italian hit me up 😊
My helmet is not for sale.
your sister owes you a gift??? you didn't even appreciate the one she gave you.😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
It was a fake Louis Vuitton ! They were joking, she doesn't owe him anything.... Lighten up, Man
Hello guys Nico over here. Looking forward to you traveling videos

This one was. But, I believe the couple were over half an hour.

Hoping he tested it thoroughly, as lot of fakes are common and people are becoming smart at faking stuff;
@@koilamaoh4238 The way he tests, it's easy to tell whether it's fake. Basically foolproof.
@@koilamaoh4238
The way they test stuff is by literally cutting into it (that's the loud buzzing noise you he
ar).
If it was fake, it's either - A. a really good fake with a pretty thick layer of real gold on it with the core being copper to make it appear heavier (This has actually happened to quite a few people, it's a rare occurrence but it does happen), regardless the fake would still cost a ton to make because of this.
or
B. it's real and that's it.
