Rebecca is an antique expert? Rebecca restores antiques? Rebecca is a research specialist? Are you just making shit up as you go along?
saw a reflection of himself in a mirror,thought it was a garden gnome....promptly bought himself..
Without the fishing rod sure he will find one 😊
I'd trust him like I'd trust a vegetarian Shark.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 from Ireland 🇮🇪
I feel so sorry for his wife, why women go off with him is beyond me.
He's a business man or do people not get that? Business men are ruthless. I'm not saying I agree with him but I watch the programme for knowledge and the advice, also shows what to pay and where to find items of value.
@@waynejohnson8009 yes, he is a business man, but that doesn't mean people have to like him.
He blatant rips people off
I am a qualified and experienced restorer and craftsperson of some 30 + years. I love this type of tele as it is part and parcel of my own appreciation of old things and my dislike of the clinical, mass produced, cheap and meaningless.
I am afraid I couldn't stand Pritchard from the first episode.
In my line of work, one avoids certain types of people in the trade. Pritchard is one of those people.
He may fool an audience who know very little about the trade with his 'skimpy' knowledge but I wouldn't have anything to do with him.
From what I've seen in the show, he is just another cut throat dealer with his focus purely on £££ signs. (Not a pleasant character unless he's ripping you off and even then!!!)
I'm afraid I can no longer watch the show if he is in it!
Pritchard's demise does not surprise me.
Interesting vid.
@@morganowen875 The thing you have to remember with these sorts of shows is that an object is only worth something if someone will actually pay that much for it. Granted he might well have access to more rich nitwits than someone in a remote salvage yard, but there is a limit to what even rich idiots will buy.
Your spot on with his character.
Not to be trusted.
Horrible, arrogant little man.
I believe you may have missed the point. Never mind.@@Wyrm1701
Tosser!
While he’s keeping you occupied with his bullshit ….keep an eye on his sidekick
we have pound sterling in the uk ,not dollars
Harry Enfields 'I saw you coming'
Amazing! Fines in the UK are apparently in dollar nows.
And house prices too. And he'll be flying in to UK to restore cars.
Thank you for the update watching from Ireland best wishes to all concerned.
Not gonna lie the dog was my favorite thing about the show 😂
Did you notice he never wagged his tail when drew returned from shopping trips.
T ?
ahem, hate to be pedantic but its the English Pound in the UK and NOT the Dollar. Not everything is American and neither is our spelling, quoting money in dollars ruined an otherwise decent video about what had happened.
Why are you giving prices in dollars??
Pounds, this is England not America
most probably envy and a narrow-minded view may have played a huge role with some comments below. The show is really worth watching to learn a lot about English hard-working and dedicated craftsmen, wonderful traditional industries of Great Britain, inventions and design, view landscapes throughout UK, and not least get an insight of what most people would consider trash while he saw a potential in trying to revival, preserve historical pieces of furniture and accessories.
There is always two sides to a story. However Rebecca was a good looking woman and Drew got the better of the deal. She seemed very loyal. Considering her looks I can't see what she saw in him. Hope she took him to the cleaners.
I take it by that comment, you didn’t realise he’s a repeat adulteress.
Doesn't work like that does it. You fall in love with somebody, even if he looks like a smurf.
@@seltaeb3302 Smurf more like a pig
The fact that his dog was never happy to see him says a lot.
😀🤣
Love this analogy, great observation 😊
That’s because he kicked the poor dog when he was at home this is a fact.
Dog expert are we
@@davidcoomber4050 arse hole are we?
I can see the show is struggling at the moment with Tee in his long haired Covid phase. Still we get to see into fascinating old houses usually not open to the public. What a rich history the UK has and we can see it thanks to the show.
Tee looking manky is hardly a good ad.
Used to watch the show but seeing naive customers/sellers being ripped off while he makes huge profits leaves a bad taste...especially when he buys from churches etc.
At long last someone who can see through Pritchard.👏👏👏👏👏
I don’t think he ripped people off, I’m in the trade albeit in a smaller way than Drew and the overheads are huge, he keeps people employed and has a client list that most dealers can only dream of. When I buy from people I tell them the truth, that I will give them 50% of what I will put it out at, most dealers have overheads and restoration for some items, plus people like to haggle which squeezes the profit line. You also have money that is always tied up in stock. Drew and dealers like him save a lot of items from landfill, let’s face it he picks up lots of items people think are worthless, renovates them and turns them into useful items that people want on display.
@@elizabethlovelock9613 I’m sorry but how much do you think he made from the filming?. Buying something for £100 & selling it for £1200 really is not 50%. I’ve watched him & been on his website. The concept of the show was great but it should have been someone else.
My friend and I watch his programme a lot when we get back from work. When I suggested that a lot of the people who sold items to him, and then watched the programme showing what he made from the items, my friend then pointed out that the reason he makes the amounts that he does, is because it is his name and reputation that makes it what its worth. Also that a lot of the people appearing on his shown were also showcasing themselves, and getting there own little bit of publicity, so there's that.
@@williamdoyle2063 my goodness you would make an excellent Russian propagandist my friend🙏
Love Salvage Hunters, Drew makes it interesting, so informative and passionate about antiques and salvage. Miss having Rebecca in it but love Tee, so sad he is leaving.
Unfortunately poor old Rebecca has her hands full with that peace of work Pritchard. I just hope that she got her way with the men back at base before she divorced him. when that worm is hunting down & ripping people off. He looks like a pig & acts like one hungry to rip people off. You need to do your research on this excuse for a man.
Laughable naivety
@@Tinker1950 keep the faith!
@@Tinker1950 quite clear to see the Alzheimer is kicking in mate😂😂😂😂👍
@@delhog6161 My comment was aimed at the original poster. Perhaps the two words wwere garbled as a result of that Alzheimer's affliction?
sorry but i found him and his ex very arrogant
The only thing classy about Drew was Rebecca. He's knowledgeable but still a wide boy and cap doffer.
His knowledge was scripted he knows jack.
What’s a cap duffer? A C… in a cap maybe 😂
Personally i cant watch it purely because of his ego even with the cars he knows very little but talks like he invented the wheel .i could watch rebecca all night shes on point charismatic and utterly believable .
Your so right he’s that far up his own backside it beggars belief. He thinks it’s ok to go off with other men’s wives then take the p… out of their husbands and when he get a good slap he runs to the police.
I hate the creep. I heard Rebecca has divorced him that’s the best thing she could do and I hope she rinsed him too.
Any mad who takes a look at a rusting shed of a car and claims that this is "patina" is to my mind a complete idiot. Cars are made of leaded steel and this stuff rusts at the drop of a hat if it is not protected somehow. European market cars are therefore routinely dipped in liquid zinc prior to painting these days, and are then painted with the best anti-rust compounds money can buy, all to stop the damn things rusting away before your eyes.
Rust is not patina. Visible rust is a cue to go looking for all of the invisible rust, body filler, bodged welding and other bodge repairs that a classic car is certain to have on it if it is in that state. Search and ye shall find, and if you're smart then the value of the car drops 10% for each defect found.
I also note that Drew Pritchard absolutely loves old VW Beetle cars. This rather sums the man up completely; form over function.
An old Beetle may look nice and curvy, but what you have is a vehicle that handles like a lame cow, will gas you if you're not very careful (single-skin mild steel exhaust heat exchanger for a heater system), is awkwardly laid out (battery under the back seat FFS) and if the road is at all icy rapidly becomes a complete nightmare to drive. It really isn't a nice vehicle to actually use at all.
Great show...
Nine minutes to tell you absolutely nothing new. Click bait at its finest.
There was a lot more to this character than we ever saw on TV. His show was quite popular and he had a talent for finding
out antiques certainly. However there was a dark side to his personal life & character. Infidelity was the least of it and sadly
his greedy, grasping nature became public knowledge.
IMO, you've said it all.
Something begin with C but definitely not character!
Not a popular man in North Wales
Banned from every pub in Conwy
sly comes to mind
Exactly who would have an affair with that little weasel!
Well it happened and he seen the married woman’s husband in a pub and took the p… out of him. He got a good slapping that he ran to the police. If I had been the cop I would have given him a slap to. What a creep
@@Tenmilsochet14 I love it 👏👏👏👏😂😂😂👍
@@delhog6161you certainly don’t like the guy 😂I don’t trust the man and the way he spoke to tee wasn’t great
i holidayed in conway & was told no one there liked him. the classic car show was a joke every car salesman dream the first person to come along bought the car with no haggling
Like all Highway men , eventually dissappear. 😂😂😂
You mean like all men eventually disappear?
He rips people off, thinks he can have his way with married women and take the Mickey out of their husbands a total creep
Why on earth do we state dollars on a UK clip???
Money. The content creator is sucking up to Ametican viewers, because they're the biggest consumers of old blighty, my old man's a dustman, God Save the King ( that they threw out) " British" accent, kitsch. lol.
Loved your show all the way from Singapore. What a shame what have you done Drew. Loved Rebecca and all your staff especially Tee. Keep watching the repeats and keeping my fingers crossed that Salvage Hunters new episodes will start again soon. Very best wishes to all on Salvage Hunters.
So loved the show and all the wonderful people forgive ness is a fantastic act too❤😊
New series currently on Discovery+
There's a new series on Quest every Weds at 9pm .. 18/10/2023 ..
@@alanjones9742DO Some Research on Pritchard he is one hell of a creep. He rips people off who need the money. Have a look on line about his repeat adultery.
How Poor Rebecca puts up with that creep I’ll never know.
Antique dealers are all dodgy
I saw his programme and I thought he seemed a bit of a creepy sod. Also as a TV show its going to be rigged!
good programme
I like the episode when Drew goes to deal with Bruce from Combat Dealers he could not get the better of him on a deal.
Favourite program
Sad!
I liked his programmes, as I am interested in both antiques and cars. But I find his egocentricity very tiring. He will have you believe that he is an expert in every area he mentions.
Dollars????? Since when have house prices and fines been in dollars in the UK???
Since content creators decided that Americans are the biggest consumers of everything British, and realised they can monetise this fact more effectively, by making the whole thing easier for Americans to consume. They use American English too. Nauseating tactics.
Drew was a daylight robber, sometimes watching the show I thought 'you bloody stole that'. At times he was a cheeky shite offering such low prices and then jacking up the price himself. He was funny saying crap like, 'i dont like 5s, 8s or 9s' just so they would go lower... this is pure cheek and he got away with it, if I was a seller i'd of told him 'ok so you don't like £950 cos it starts with a 9, then £1000 it is and not a penny more', cos we know full well he'd sell it again for way way above that and still make a huge profit.
That's the name of the game. You just say no to him.
As he was only married to Rebecca for a few years who is the mother of his adult son and daughter we hear about .
Tee 🤔
Hee
That's nine and a half minutes wasted. Not a single new thing in this.
I always thought Tee was just waiting for Drew to slip up and then slip one to Rebecca 🤣🤣
I thought Gavin was giving her one
When I last checked the UK was not the 51st State of the USA so why are you quoting prices in dollars? Not very helpfull
I kinda enjoy the show as it was an easy watch whilst informative. Never liked the guy though, didn't know why, just can't get on with everyone in life. That American pickers has a similar vibe for me, I enjoy the show but not the 2 guys.
Australia// Love Salvage Hunters !!! I wish him and his team - all the very best and say a big thank you for being generous in sharing their knowledge in a fantastically interesting and instructive manner. Geezzze.. I thought Ozzies were a bunch of knockers !- but now I see (comments below) that this title belongs to you brits !! but then, in case you didnt know- you have a reputation for not knowing when you've got it good.
Do some research on Pritchard he’s one hell of a creep.
And Australians have a reputation for whining
Know someone who's met him personally. Said he's just as arrogant, smug and up his own arse as what you see on the tele.
@@pylo1608 he’s even worse off Camera a total wa⚓️ 😂
Drew Pritchard did not come across as so insufferably smug and arrogant as some presenters (you know who I mean!)
His job was to buy items cheap, get someone to tidy them up, and sell for a good profit - which is fair enough, I suppose, but I do wonder how many of the people he bought from looked at the prices on his website and thought they had been ripped off.
Sorry I think you must be talking about some one else 🤣
Well if Pritchard can find mugs to pay his inflated prices, nobody is being ripped off.
he once moaned that a fellow dealer bought something off him and sold it on for a massive mark up, and said he will never deal with them again.
hello pot kettle here, sorry mate, your black
sly comes to mind
I alway groan when he's visiting naive young newbees. 😮 But now I think more fool them for not checking market values beforehand.
Always seemed a bit dodgy IMO
Huge .istake on drews part 😅 divorce is costing 50% loss to Rebecca. He has to sell everything. Glad Rebecca is getting whatever she deserves
Mate they been divorced must be 6 years ago may be more.hes hated in conwy
Bless her I sincerely hope she rinses him for every last penny. I hate that creep he is Beyond words
I think it can be filmed in the pawn stars shop in Las Vegas as a special episode, Rick Harrison and Drew will get along great, Rebecca should be with him.
Can’t stand this awful character.
Has a slightly naff reputation amongst the antique / interiors cognesenti.
I loved the show, even though I thought most of the stuff he bought was rubbish, and I wouldn’t give it house room
sorry Drew just cannot take to you, cannot put my finger why. but something about you!!!
Love the show who has a fantastic team behind him wish him all the best
I wish Rebecca well because she’s got one hell of a creep of a husband, repeat adulterous.
I really love this show and I learned a about antiques from Drew. I wish I could watch all the episodes in U.S.A but I cannot stream them at all for some reason.
If you get a VPN will you not be able to watch content from another Continent?
antiques dealer: noun. Someone who makes a living buying rich people's junk for peanuts and selling it to less rich people for a large profit.
Just love the show and love everyone on the show but Drew and Rebecca the most. They stimulate. ones imagination and interest in our history.
Do some research on Pritchard he’s one hell of a creep.He constantly cheats on Rebecca.
@@delhog6161 They are no longer married.
@@lcg5790 thank goodness for that. I sincerely hope Rebecca takes Piggy eyes to the cleaners big time.
He is renovating a house in Bath now ( Sept 2023)
And there were never any rats there before
😢my condolences
Pompous little narcissist, bet he only shut the shop so he doesnt have to pay out money to his ex.
Ever notice how he deals with certain people.He visits a shop,or a market,or another dealer,and he tries to get the lowest price for an item he wants.Fair enough.But then he visits a manor or a stately house,owned by a lord this or a lady that,and he pays well over the odds,simply because he is surrounded by money.Its like he is trying to impress Lord Fauntleroy with bags of money.Yaah.
Bargain Hunt on BBC is far worse, they actually near enough steal it trying it on. The shop owner is basically strong armed to accept it.
Cleaver man.😊
No just a big Tw@
I only loved the dog Enzo
A man’s Gotta make a living, what you’re all jealous of because he’s made a few quid
I think just about everyone in Conwy hates this man. And not because he's got money.
Nothing to do with the money, he’s a creep do a bit of research on the little goblin.
Just love the show that's it all these criticising his personal life,well that's what it is personal
Yes exactly right but as we can see from the comments there are a lot of gossip mongers who can't function without being experts on his private life despite not knowing him at all. I wonder what we would find if we examined the gossip monger's private lives.
Strange how he sold his house in Dollars though! 😂
DOLLARS ?
The tv show was quite good, however on many occasions when people went to his shop they were not very welcome. It seemed to be that his only clients were for the richer society. By all accounts it was said that many of the local pubs etc had banned him, due to his attitude towards them. As a lot of people say there is always 2 sides to the story.
Did any one notice that his dog never wagged his tail when he came back from a buying trip.
That’s why he divorced her.
That’s because he used to kick the poor dog when at home this is a fact.
Dollars? Er no, he's in in England!
So what did happen too him?🤐🤐🤐🤐
6:28 fined $1,440 really?? it's £ sterling in England, not $.
i liked an occasional find & a handful of the dealers he dealt with.
the man himself ? unimpressed.
The stupid remarks of most people; if you don't like the man (and the world of dealing - cause you would do it otherwise taking only a 2% profit would you?! - and go bankrupt in a two months) don't look at these videos!
I thought he ripped a lot of people off ,didn’t like him his wife was lovely.
We only know what we see, that's all. What goes on between them is their affair. She might be a right little btch when the cameras switch off or a perfect saint. Who knows.
2minutes of info stretched to beyond endurance together with sickly naff voice over. Avoid!
He has Napoleon complex, he'd often wind people up, not hard to do with such a smarmy manner
The best time was when he was banned from every pub, bliss for the locals 🤣
He had the cheek to try and get a restraining order on a man who put him on his arse in the Liverpool arms for having an affair with his wife
The wheel fell off his barrow
I couldn't believe it when he bought a giant Willy- with glee !!
It was a good lightness of himself a big prick
How old are his new gnashers!? All of a sudden, he was wearing expensive clothes and a new hat as well. One wonders who the transformation was for? I must live under a rock because I knew nothing of this affair. At the end of the day, he's no celebrity, I watched his shows quite happily when he started buying the good stuff. Very sad to hear of the issues. I always wondered why Rebecca was so damn thin; all of a sudden, she looked to have really aged. The thing is, once you become well known and start getting paid lumps of dough, it changes some people. I noticed a difference in him, how he spoke; dressed and of course the teeth. The thing is Drew had it all and decided to dismantle it. He outgrew his wife and probably a lot of other people. I knew there was more to that shop closing. The thing is, it can all end just as quickly and I imagine clients he's ripped off will stop calling eventually. It remains to be seen if he can salvage this fall from grace because it does affect people's opinions. If the show starts failing, what then? All his bridges will have been burned.
There's a woman on the show who photographs the cleaned up furniture. Why is she called
Hill *Lay* ree. ?
Dollars ? Wales has sterling
Good series..he’s total little control freak…
Dollars?
they go collect things in the van and fill it .then say while there in that aeria go pick up some more and hey presto the vans suddenly empty its bollox
Thought it was just me who couldn’t stand Him Phew!
Unfortunately Drew did not educate people about removing fixtures & fittings from Statutory Grade Listed buildings, now did he? Remember that 16ft oak table from Tissington Hall? Or those wrought iron spandrel panels from the old fire damaged Brighton Pier. You guessed it. Did you know the fine is £20,000 or 6 months in prison, or a combination of the two? Bet you didn't Drew. Smack bum for you ☝😳
So nothing happened Drew Pritchard did it ?????
I must admit i did like the show until his shenanigans/roving eye became public knowledge. What i will say if he was such a bstd how was he able to gain excess to some highly respected establishments and as for ripping ppl off. I couldnt imagine some of the sellers where that naive. Must admit felt a pity for Rebecca when he let his balls run away with his brains.
It's the programme makers that arrange these visits for him.
Bit of a rooter
I heard the locals couldn't stop slapping his smug face whenever he showed it in the local pub's
His soul will have to stand before the lamb of God for murder
Basically a knacker.
Watched a couple of episodes, thought he was a bit of a spiv.
You know what they say about p--- and gunpowder
😔 so sorry that he quit everything and that his marriage ended to 😔 and he wouldn't be the first to stray ....it happens 😔 no one is perfect
