Man, I felt like getting a Tetanus shot just looking at this thing.

I believe it belongs to Mike Wolfe's (American Pickers) brother.

if he's anything like his brother he probably low balled the guy he bought it from hardcore

I am beginning to believe that no one knows that they have a business. If they paid like 80%, they wouldn't make hardly anything. They have to make a living too. Fuel and transport costs are expensive. Then there is employ and outside hire payment. Then comes mortgage, rent, and other business related bills. It's not lowballing, it's running a business.

Um they have a fucking tv show that they get paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for. Yeah sure maybe when they started they needed to be cheap but now they have a tv show, and it's syndicated and they do commercials. Hell look at the pawnstars, Rick does commercials for razors and the Microsoft surface. Don't give me they run a business shit. Most of their revenue now a days comes from their tv shows

I've been to their store up in Le Claire. It's more about Merchandising than Antiques.

Frank has his own separate store that's more about Bikes and "Picks".

It's still a great show.

Let's talk long term after the show. Do you think it would really work out if they paid retail for everything, and then all of a sudden had to start paying less to previous sellers? No. It doesn't work that way.
