I have a 15 year old with autism . This man is 100% somewhere on the spectrum. Thank you for being polite to him. Not everyone is understanding of their certain quirks and conversational skills.
It’s good to be sensitive to those who have mental illnesses but it’s also a two way street. They also need to practice being a respectful member of our society. Having a disability cannot be an excuse to not even try to modify our behavior. Good luck to you and your son
Bro you can't diagnose autism from a short video clip. You have no idea how this guy acts day to day. He might just have social anxiety or is nervous and uncomfortable trying to haggle and sell his stuff. He definitely doesn't "100%" have anything based on this video
@ButterBallTheOpossum obvious you have not spent much time around people on the spectrum. Even ADHD is part of the spectrum which is easy to spot. When you know, you know
This was my first thought too. Especially the avoiding eye contact, it's a dead give away. I think he did really well, haggling with a professional trading post owner isn't an easy feat even for a neurotypical person to do, let alone someone with extra difficulties on top. Good on him and good on the owner for being respectful and understanding.
He wanted $70-100 for three and you offered him $50 for two. That was a solid deal. You offered him $10 for the one that sold for $12. Lol Couldn’t have made it any better. Honestly $70 for those three is a good price you could have made a quick $80-100 off of that probably.
Also, it was very honest the man spoke up with the one online listing was his own and he didn't pretend it was proof of independent interest from others
Mr Funko Pop appeared to be on something, couldn't make eye contact fidgeting... didn't even have the certificates with him???.. if you're going to take something to Pawn / trade shop you really ought to have everything with you.. not try to fish for fighting an outside collector in the area.... definitely an Odd Fellow...LAXVESPA
Peter is so friendly and professional with everyone, I think that man might be autistic. Bless his heart I like how Peter is able to do business with all walks of life.
Definitely autism. And why people feel the need to make fun of someone being neurodivergent, is baffling. The biggest problem with our society today is our inability to celebrate people that may be different than ourselves, and recognize our common humanity. It’s all about the memes
Man first thing I thought honestly just from being around a couple of my autistic homies those really be the homies can get the same kinda honesty from anyone else
Peter is such a good guy. Treats everyone with respect no matter what. People on here commenting about the funko guy “being on drugs” or “high out of his mind” need to chill. It’s called social anxiety. So quick to judge 🤦♂️

Funko screwed its collectors by creating one of the greatest brand fatigues of all time. They overproduced them into oblivion and we're all tired of looking at them. Their value has collapsed significantly over the last couple years as well.
@@sweetlikechocothai ok... welcome to what collecting is. its a hobby filled with resale lmao the whole point is to get all of whatever youre collecting. items cant be on shelves forever at retail
@@2000Peaceoutno, he’s right. Collecting is different than buying. If you’re buying shit off the shelves and keeping it piled up, that’s not collecting - you’re just making bad purchases at retail value, expecting the retail value to magically go up.
"professional Funko pop appraiser" 🤣 this is the modern day beenie baby, worth whatever some tool is willing to pay. At least they are packaged. Glad I missed this craze tho, especially during a recession when soon they will be worth a couple bucks each.
I collect pop's , but never spend more than $15 on any. And only collect what I personally like. But I also thought long ago it was a fad and would fizzle out. But it hasn't. Beanie babies basically were popular only for like 4 - 5 year's 97-2002 then overnight BB that were worth $1,000 were selling for $10 and that's if you were lucky. Meanwhile pops have been popular for over 10 year's. Will it last another 10 year's 🤷
@@bryantanderson430 yes and then he said he needed my full name and that’s the last I heard. In a previous video he said he’s been having multiple people claim posters so I think that’s what happened. Pretty much got screwed he should have us screenshot our comment or something for proof.

Not only "collectors" ... If I'm correct this is a pawn shop, so ....... just a souped up junk yard for stuff nobody wants but have been press ganged by "marketing" to believe it has an intrinsic value. NOT for nothing that where you find this stuff is on the ..... MARKET. Market - Marketing: Get the vibe ? LOL. Its all about the offer and demand. You see brand new rubbish in shops being sold as "collectors" what ever that means. Usually a plastic item with a brand name on it.
I always enjoy when Pete looks up similar items on Ebay and shows the sellers... and yet they continue to ask for a crazy over the top price or act like somehow Pete is wrong or trying to underprice their items. Pete, you are a master at keeping your composure. I'd probably tell them to GET OUT...
The reason he doesn't is because you have to play the long game. Yeah, those people are annoying but if he's respectful and nice and gives them a real number, they argue and then leave and what do they do if they can't find a buyer anywhere else? They're going to go back to the nice respectful guy that gave them a solid offer even if it was lower than they were hoping.
This guy is super honest and super fair with his offers. Our local pawn shops barely even wanna buy off of you and then give you like a quarter of eBay sold comps on the things they will buy.

They're definitely the kind of thing that people will have to pay you to take off their hands later on. Collectibles are only as good as they are purely because people didn't have the idea to collect them, and years later they became a marketable item. Beanie babies were a thing because there was one specific rare model of a beanie baby that sold for a lot, and after that everyone got the idea to collect them, and any beanie baby after the collection fad started became worthless even years later, they aren't even worth the material they're made of.

Grew up during the beanie baby craze. Funkos seem like the same thing to me. Obviously, yes, certain pops have true value. But I know a few people that have giant collections of shit and think it's worth something.
yeah the funko pop guy is one of my lot ( I'm Autistic ) thank you for not taking the piss and just dismissing him but actually taking the time to explain
I got a Roku device back in the day from a yard sale for 1 dollar went home and it was signed in to there Netflix account and we had Netflix for free for like 2 years since no one reset it. Him resetting that TV brought back memories
God I hate those stupid, basic looking things. I'm amazed they're as popular as they are. "You know how people like action figures with more points of articulation and detail? Let's design these blobby, simple things with weird dead eyes that look like a 3rd grade art project/an alien/human hybrid that just barely resemble the original character". On a side note, that cat is adorable, lol.
The funko pops would be worth more if there wasn't so many on the market.these were mass produced in huge numbers,so that hurts the value.people should realize that funko pops is not the best way to invest your money.that is unless you get them for pennies on the dollar.i bought 50 about a year for 150$,but I don't plan on getting rich off the deal.
Nostalgia for the characters and or they just like them and usually retail price don't gotta pay alot so that's kinda why they are more like collectibles as they don't even move like action figures so wouldn't even be fun for kids to play with
@@AnxiousSoul so you're saying he seems autistic, again, if he's not autistic you are being rude. Hold on.... Are you autistic? It seems like you are...
People never understand how pawns make money on this. It isn't your right to have them buy your stuff for YOUR price. I recently tried to sell a book I paid $60 for to a book store that offers fair prices and they offered me $15 because they said they could sell it for $30 based on recent comps. They are a business, not your personal collectible service.
I'm new to yur channel and I've been binge watching most of my evening and still watching your vids and it's 3:47am here in Illinois, Were just 4 hours and 42 minutes from Poplar Grove and Crystal Lake :D
"Awe", well he shouldn't be trying to do transactions like this then. I fully expecting half of you to post something stupid like: "You should just give him money and let him keep the Funkos, Pete! He looks like he is really having a hard time!".
Mr funko brotha is likely on the spectrum , and I think he handled the situation just as well as Peter. He thought what he had was worth more, it’s never pleasant news finding out otherwise. Attempted to renegotiate, then asked for some advice . Proud of you Mr Funko bro.

Dang, this place is in Illinois. I would definitely try to do some business with you if the place was in North Carolina. No problem. Best Pawn shop in my opinion. Very friendly guy and fair.
FUNKO POP's are worthless. My 30 year niece and her husband collect this crap and think they are going to retire with the 200 they have already purchased. They aren't an investment.
I hope he can find a buyer while the market is good. Something is better than nothing. You were offering 10 on the one FUnkoPop that you said sold for 10-12. I thought "oh no!" Thankfully he refused.
Considering charmander is only going for $12 on the official store and you can probably get it signed at any of the million conventions that seem to go on weekly, he should had just taken the offer. I think the amount he was offering was already too high. Once they become rare collector's items, then the price makes sense, but the seller had the advantage since Pete didn't know much about them to begin with. On ebay right now, signed, I only see around $35. They are not valuable right now. It's far too early.
12:10 I think that cat senses that little boy is a good kid! First of all, he waved respectfully instead of immediately trying to pet or grab the cat. Then the cat got up and gave all his calm attention to the boy. Sweet kid. Cute cat!

I have 4 of those gas cans to fill my tractor for moving snow. I like them because they are elagently (sp) designed and I don't get splash back gas on me.
The Funko Pop guy made no sense.. he wanted $70-100 for all 3 you offered $50 for 2 and he could sell the other on EBay for $80 but turned it down so if he had taken the deal he would get $130 verses $70-100🤦🏻♀️ I get each to their own but he can’t expect you to not make money.. I think your offer was more than fair especially since the unsigned one was going for $10-12 and you gave him $10! Best of luck to him.
I think his most expensive one just wasn't selling. Just means it is probably overpriced, or simply he hasn't found that person who really wants it yet.
Gas cans... "She always finds these in the trash". SURE, I always find nice jerry cans in the trash too; if that's what we're calling people's garages now. Always wondered how pawn shops sly their way through stolen goods.
They guy with the funkopops was autistic. You can tell right away with the hand gestures and lack of eye contact. There are more signs as well if you pay attention.
He was very kind to the funko pop guy. The guy himself looked like he may have social anxiety/autism and the shop man was professional

He wants 70 to 80 bucks for all 3 but doesn’t want to sell 2 of them for $50 🤦🏼♀️
Time and value aren't the same. He knows how Funko market works. It goes up and down.
Believe he was asking for up to $100 for all Three.... remember he was trying to say 70 to a hundred. But came out like he said 7 to $800.
@@thisshouldbeentertaining3386 yes so $50 for 2 was a good deal
He may have been a little bit goofy...
He meant $70-100 each. That's what it costs. $12 for a Pop and each autograph runs about $40- 60 in addition.
"I want this poster"
Thank you for this channel Pete and the team! 🙌
You must didnt watch the video.... he didn't do a poster in this video
@@mandc20022he does it in the beginning
Bro really thought he was on Pawn Stars. He was hoping that Peter would bring in an expert lol
yeah the funko pop guy is one of my lot ( I'm Autistic ) thank you for not taking the piss and just dismissing him but actually taking the time to explain
That guy was on a broad spectrum of the universe. Great vid. 👍🏻
I got a Roku device back in the day from a yard sale for 1 dollar went home and it was signed in to there Netflix account and we had Netflix for free for like 2 years since no one reset it. Him resetting that TV brought back memories
God I hate those stupid, basic looking things. I'm amazed they're as popular as they are. "You know how people like action figures with more points of articulation and detail? Let's design these blobby, simple things with weird dead eyes that look like a 3rd grade art project/an alien/human hybrid that just barely resemble the original character". On a side note, that cat is adorable, lol.
The funko pops would be worth more if there wasn't so many on the market.these were mass produced in huge numbers,so that hurts the value.people should realize that funko pops is not the best way to invest your money.that is unless you get them for pennies on the dollar.i bought 50 about a year for 150$,but I don't plan on getting rich off the deal.
That Honey is so adorable.
I don't understand what's the appeal for funko pops? Atleast for adults. I see why kids might like them, because they're like little bobble heads.
Nostalgia for the characters and or they just like them and usually retail price don't gotta pay alot so that's kinda why they are more like collectibles as they don't even move like action figures so wouldn't even be fun for kids to play with
I always wondered who was into Funko pops... I guess that's what I thought he'd look like
Don’t be rude, I think he may have autism
@@AnxiousSoul if he doesn't, then you're the one being rude.
@@nonyabiz9340 I said he MAY have autism. He has the signs of somebody on the spectrum.
@@AnxiousSoul so you're saying he seems autistic, again, if he's not autistic you are being rude.
Hold on.... Are you autistic? It seems like you are...
@@nonyabiz9340 😂😂😂
How much for your entire store, Honey & inventory..? Minus trade value for a 92' Jeep Wrangler..
I’m very interested in the flag book! Let me know a price if you can
Your best bet would be to write him an email. Don't wait for him to contact you. I loved that book as well!
$750
Some mean comments here,also have an adult with autism.
You're an amazing person pete,friendly and caring,love your videos.
honestly probably sent him in the right direction longer he keeps those signed funkos the more theyll be valued
People never understand how pawns make money on this. It isn't your right to have them buy your stuff for YOUR price. I recently tried to sell a book I paid $60 for to a book store that offers fair prices and they offered me $15 because they said they could sell it for $30 based on recent comps. They are a business, not your personal collectible service.
That girl was sus. Seems like a stolen TV with how she knew nothing about the LED lights on the back. Just me?
Women don't understand technology 😂
Peter is the best, he's very kind to everyone and always more than fair.
That was a great offer for those two. He was asking 70 to 100 for the 3 and he offered 50 for the two.
Fair price and he would have got his money back for those pops. I think the guy was confused though thinking he’d actually make a profit.
I feel bad for the funko guy, thats a tough way to go through life.
It is
Yes, autism has many silent victims.
autism
lmao a grown mad getting frustrated over KIDS toys... were doomed with these tards around and breeding.
@@SUBZER0GREENnpc yank
Gas cans without the new lame spigot? That's like pure dirt in Waterworld!
Most likely you're gonna sit on those funkos forever unless you undercut everyone lmao
I'm new to yur channel and I've been binge watching most of my evening and still watching your vids and it's 3:47am here in Illinois, Were just 4 hours and 42 minutes from Poplar Grove and Crystal Lake :D
Dude with the funko pops absolutely had Apspegers awe
Atleast someone else recognized it. People in the comments are saying he's on drugs 🤦♂️
Knew something was off
He definitely does.
"Awe", well he shouldn't be trying to do transactions like this then. I fully expecting half of you to post something stupid like: "You should just give him money and let him keep the Funkos, Pete! He looks like he is really having a hard time!".
@@WillmobilePlus well nobody said that at all. Only you. People saying he's on drugs, a comedown, shady etc
Hi Peter! With the RGB lights on the TV, there is a USB port right on the unit itself that can power that =)
Mr funko brotha is likely on the spectrum , and I think he handled the situation just as well as Peter. He thought what he had was worth more, it’s never pleasant news finding out otherwise. Attempted to renegotiate, then asked for some advice .
Proud of you Mr Funko bro.
There are landfills full of funkos. Paying anything for them is already stupid
anyone who is legit asking if a "funko pop inspector" exists .......is NOT living in the real world or playing with a full deck. LOL. Pete, you should have a tv show - a lot of the people who come into your store are kind of kooky.
Grading companies inspect grade and authenticate funkos there goober
@@RichardHead12 my point went right over your head.........and anyone who buys into that nonsense is the "goober". you better take a LOOOOONG look in the mirror.
@@RichardHead12”goober” go back to mommys basement
@@RichardHead12 he SPECIFCALLY asked for a "funko pop inspector" - not what you're talking about. he had already had them graded - that was in the video too - maybe watch the video before making a foolish reply......... edit: and THAT makes you the real "goober".
Dang, this place is in Illinois. I would definitely try to do some business with you if the place was in North Carolina. No problem. Best Pawn shop in my opinion. Very friendly guy and fair.
FUNKO POP's are worthless. My 30 year niece and her husband collect this crap and think they are going to retire with the 200 they have already purchased. They aren't an investment.
Not many collectibles are. I sold Nascar souvenirs in the nineties and did very well. The stuff is mostly worthless now
I hope he can find a buyer while the market is good. Something is better than nothing. You were offering 10 on the one FUnkoPop that you said sold for 10-12. I thought "oh no!" Thankfully he refused.
Question I've always wondered. Do you buy more than you sell a day?
Can't stay in business that way. You don't see all of his ebay sales, and he generally never shows in store sales on the videos
Considering charmander is only going for $12 on the official store and you can probably get it signed at any of the million conventions that seem to go on weekly, he should had just taken the offer. I think the amount he was offering was already too high. Once they become rare collector's items, then the price makes sense, but the seller had the advantage since Pete didn't know much about them to begin with. On ebay right now, signed, I only see around $35. They are not valuable right now. It's far too early.
It costs much more than that to get stuff signed + the cost of admission to the event as well.
11:54 Did you see the cat wave back at the kid, that was so cool!!!! 😺 👋🏻
Now I did!! 🙂👍
I need a 24 inch vizio with wifi. you have one that makes sense with shipping?
12:10 I think that cat senses that little boy is a good kid! First of all, he waved respectfully instead of immediately trying to pet or grab the cat. Then the cat got up and gave all his calm attention to the boy. Sweet kid. Cute cat!
My Favorite part. Most kids woulda woke the cat and tried petting without asking.
My fur baby pecco loves you he watches your shows all the time with me. I have never seen a dog that watches so much TV mainly your show. When honey and ruby comes on there he stares at it and watches them all day..lol.. he loves them.....
Funko Pop guy was a bit odd 🤔
I think that guy has autism; no eye contact and very awkward
Wish I would've seen this before 😢 My wife and I's first vacation together was to Colorado to see Panic at Red Rocks that year and I've been wanting to get that poster ever since. We were still in high school so we didn't have any money for stuff like that at the time.
of course that guy had funky pops...look at him
Lmao I died 🤣
Of course people like you judge and comment when a fella with Asperger’s is trying to function in society…look at yourself and try to be better
@@commoncorysense1809 no
Next time I'm in Chicago I'll be buying a bunch of those 50 cent dvds.
I died at professional funko pop inspector. 😂😂😂
The final boss of a mother's basement.
Nothing beats my Jimmy Hendrix Funko Gold figure.....I want 1 billion dollars .........(Dr. Evil laugh)
Thanks Pete and crew for all you do. Stated reselling a little over 5 years ago. Started my own channel too. Cheers my friend.
I have 4 of those gas cans to fill my tractor for moving snow. I like them because they are elagently (sp) designed and I don't get splash back gas on me.
I adore that cat. She's so GEORGOUS & calm
Funko Pops are just the worst. Never understood the appeal of "let's take characters from popular culture and give them all the same fugly head".
That guy with the funko pops had a girlfriend? Never ceases to amaze
Thats obviously his sister
Good to see Vicki again. Anyone have the full story on her disappearing act?
The Funko Pop guy made no sense.. he wanted $70-100 for all 3 you offered $50 for 2 and he could sell the other on EBay for $80 but turned it down so if he had taken the deal he would get $130 verses $70-100🤦🏻♀️ I get each to their own but he can’t expect you to not make money.. I think your offer was more than fair especially since the unsigned one was going for $10-12 and you gave him $10! Best of luck to him.
He wanted $70-80 for each.
The Funko Pop guy isn't working with a full deck.
@@teh_longinator thats mean.
I think his most expensive one just wasn't selling. Just means it is probably overpriced, or simply he hasn't found that person who really wants it yet.
It’s clear to see the dude was autistic, he did no eye contact and was clearly uncomfortable, autistic people are often mistaken for being rude
The last several videos I haven't seen the little doll bed that Honey used to sleep on. Did it get sold?
You can see it in the very beginning before Vicki walks in. It's on the counter in the background.
@@mudmudmudmudmud7605 oh, ok, Thanks!!!
@@Suebe1962 You're welcomed. I think it's awesome the cat sleeps in the doll bed. It's like it knew what it was meant for.
Honey looks to have gained weight and may not fit in it anymore. Hope she’s on a good quality no grain diet but doesn’t look like she is.
I think Vicki just wanted you to give those prints away. Don't be so f'n cheap Pete.
Pippa Mann was a good open wheel racer but she had a quite serious accident.
Respect the LIVE SHOW
SHE WASN'T AWARE YOU WAS RECORDING
SO RAW
The hell is a funko pop
Trash
The kid and the cat was the best part
People need cash , bringing in some decent stuff 👌.
With supply chain issues and inflated prices, folks may be looking to save a dollar vs new.
Hi Honey 🍯 Ruby you were so quiet! Hi Pete!
Now come on Pete everyone has to know The Profesional Funko Pop Inspector 🙄 🤣 🤣. I couldn't stop laughing 😆 🤣 😂...
Funko Pop dolls are like beanie babies now. Worthless.
Gas cans... "She always finds these in the trash". SURE, I always find nice jerry cans in the trash too; if that's what we're calling people's garages now. Always wondered how pawn shops sly their way through stolen goods.
I want that Pippa Mann poster lol
She worked really hard to do one race a year for a long time and I respect that.
your comment won't be found if you type it like this :p
it needs to contain "i want this poster"
@@Valandril Is he giving it away? I didn't see anything in the video about a giveaway this week. Maybe I missed it and make another comment lol
How did I miss the chance to win TWO WSMFP poster’s? D’oh. Lucky winner!!
The fact the funko pop guy will not eye contact with you is strange
They guy with the funkopops was autistic. You can tell right away with the hand gestures and lack of eye contact. There are more signs as well if you pay attention.
Sign of autism
He’s obviously autistic…
People with autism don't look in the eye that's one early sign to look for when they are young a toddler and they won't respond to there name
I love your kitty. SO FLUFFY.
Vickie is awesome 👌
