antique necklace set with over 200 stones i'm hoping to get about 40 000 pounds for it that's what i would like i don't actually have a clue how much it's worth it's beautiful but it's way too much for me to wear in my wellies whatever their circumstances pawn brokers cater for people who need cash fast pawn broking works very simply people bring their belongings into us we'll value them and offer them a loan which is usually up to 70 percent of an item's value your interest is 42 points per calendar month contracts are for seven months we keep the item with us until the capital and interest you at the time of redemption if the client can't pay at the end of the term we sell the item if you can't come and collect it just give us a note and obviously we try to help you because otherwise you might lose the watch thank you very much cheers bye-bye as well as loaning against valuables most high street pawn brokers also double up as jewelry retailers [Music] ingrid's bringing her antique necklace into the pawn shop to be valued a job for new girl moniker hello hello i'm just wondering if you'd have a look at my um necklace i love it value please oh wow this is beautiful yes it is how old is it do you know correctly well it belonged to my nan i wouldn't really know but about 1960s i would say well it's very nice the old cut diamonds there is one little tiny stone missing if you could leave it with us for a couple of days okay we will get the best offers that'd be really lovely thank you looks amazing thanks bye-bye she really liked it i think so that's why

grandma in downton abbey yes it's really nice seeing monica excited because she's quite studious and she's quite straight look at that she's really really perked up at looking at that which is brilliant she's smiling from here to here [Music] it's really easy to get over excited about an item and i always tell everyone not to get too passionate about them because it could mar your judgment [Music] most pawn shops will lend against any legal item of value carl it's james here from prestige pawn brokers and staff at waybridge have learned to expect the unexpected as far as antiques go yeah i've got an antique bear no i'm not totally convinced that's an expensive bear but i don't know anything about bears i'll take it into showjob i put my mouth over the end of that gun and given their reputation for loaning against the unusual and outlandish inquiries often come from further afield [Music] today james has had an inquiry from a nigerian businessman trying to secure a multi-million pound loan against a fleet of 10 fighter jets first email we had good morning james i called earlier in respect of acquiring a fund loan against 10 units of supercat jaguar 16 fighter jets all in very good condition with neat body i aim of bringing i can't even say it i can't even say it put your seat back in i aim of bringing it into the uk i should have ave detailed information before inquiring costs of transport to the uk it sounds uh pretty far-fetched to be honest with you but we've got to go through with it joe's a bit skeptical what's your instinct telling you come on my class is always half full not half empty you know that i'm an optimist no joe a good entrepreneur will always have a desire for gain over a fear for loss because i think it's a load of that was oh come on now that ain't even warning warning that's all i'm saying james won't be handing over a seven figure some just yet but the offer of fighter jets has certainly caught his attention i do get a little bit excited when it comes to big boys toys whether it's fighter jets ferraris lamborghinis i'm always there first when it comes to the appraisal just remember it's heavy mate the pawn shop is used to dealing with the weird and the wonderful and policeman david is looking to sell something out of the ordinary here it is a personal yellow submarine when my son first told me that he'd won a personal submarine i thought he was joking david sun barry thought he was entering a competition to win a sandwich originally they said oh you've won a sub and a drink so he thought i'm just gonna get a voucher for a subway um and then the man on the phone said no you've won the submarine i'd be amazed if this is gonna hold it up why don't you get in and have a look see what it's like how did you get in here you look like the space man don't really make sense to me no it's nice bright color you wouldn't lose it would you my son has now finished at university obviously like most students in university he's got substantial debts just really want to get rid of the submarine and get some money for him i wish he'd won a car really two three the competition in the magazine says it's worth about nine and a half thousand pounds i'll take it to the pawn shop and see what they offer [Music] this underwater explorer has never been used okay it's really difficult to explain wow so if james is to sell it he'll first need to check it's in working order if we can get it in the water and try it out that'd be fantastic cheers cheers [Music] joe you won't believe what i've just seen outside what well i'm going down in it next week the yellow submarine oh you're joking guys just brought it in oh my god so wait a minute what do you mean you're going in it take it in the uh in the pool a swimming pool yeah i did think what if it tipped over oh yeah where your head's bigger than your body [Music] better ask them to balance it out with some boots you might need a bit of ballast we deal in unusual items and obviously the more unusual the more riskier the loan so basically i'm putting my ass on the line when it comes to lending money against these very unusual items so can james secure a sale of the tricky sob and help david's son pay off his student debts no yellow submarine well i never [Music] as pawn broken booms in post-recession britain one pawn shop in surrey is making its mark specializing in luxury goods with over 2 million pounds worth of bentleys porsches and ferraris boss james's garage would be the envy of any petrol head these cars all belong to wealthy customers who have temporarily traded them in for cash loans security is tight and like the cars all the pawn shops goods are kept firmly under lock and key [Music] off-site today james is valuing a vintage rolls royce he will only loan against its resale value so even luxury brands like this must be scrutinized before a deal is agreed seems sort of fairly straight the upper body but it's a little bit bubbly in places isn't it there's a lot of cars out there that are very shiny and they look fantastic but once you get on your hands and knees and have a good look underneath them it's a different story the owner of this classic car wants to use it as collateral for a 17 000 pound loan okay dave i know good ones of these are around sort of 60 70 grand for a really low mileage one where did you sort of see this one in the trade what do you think 20 25 in the trade i think inspection over james can judge how much he's willing to lend to restore them to work on him is absolutely a fortune so we need to just be careful we're happy to do the 14k if that's fine for you i'm sorry we couldn't get any more we've never sent money to the wrong client yet so let's keep our fingers crossed james seals the deal but it's three thousand pounds less than the client wanted in post-austerity britain banks can still be reluctant to loan so people from all walks of life are turning to the pawn shop 42 year old marcella needs money to support her fledgling career in the music industry well discover myself as a recording artist that's what uh you know i mainly do the writing thing i have dabbled in the writing thing before but to be honest with you i never really took it that seriously [Music] a single mom marcela has a three-year-old son to support he's my absolute whole world he really is oh it's in there tell them get out bringing up a child especially by yourself is it's very expensive you need money for school fees and trips and possibly university [Music] marcello wants to focus on professional songwriting and needs finance to fund her first release if you do become successful even just one song you can set yourself up financially the singer didn't think she could get a bank loan to cover her musical endeavors so she's decided to pawn a precious family necklace this piece has been in the family since as long as i can remember my granny gave this piece to my mom and then when i left home to come and live here my mom gave it to me it's a beautiful necklace really it's just sitting in the house i have no clue what this this is worth to be honest with you the best case scenario is he says yes marcella there because it's worth 20 000 pounds oh i would hear those magic words i want to use that money um to provide for my my beautiful little one um you know it's for his future as well that's very important yeah good marcella is taking her necklace to patrick at the pawn shops richmond branch patrick is the bag man of the business but when it's not bags it can be a little bit nervous hello hi there how are you you're good thank you hi how can i uh i've got an item to show you okay well that's a piece isn't there yeah it is nice beautiful settings in there right and you're looking for a loan on this yes how much are you looking for do you know i was hoping it's worth at least twenty thousand right okay and there's a lot of diamonds in there yeah there is well i i might be here for hours counting these lots obviously we're trying to get you the best valuation we can come on little and say bye bye-bye see you bye i have to say that is a beautiful piece so hopefully she'll get you know what she's looking for on that come on bait your breath a little bit because i really don't know what the piece is worth so just hope for the best inside i'm a little bit excited but we'll wait and see but will the necklace be worth enough to secure the 20 000 pound loan she needs it's the start of another week at the pawn shop and james is following up an inquiry from a nigerian businessman looking to pawn some military fighter jets i wonder if you can help me he's speaking to their london embassy from our point of view we can't we must check this out thoroughly if no okay what's your what's the email obi double n a gmail.com gmail account for nigerian embassy thank you very much thank you bye bye gmail account for the nigerian embassy apparently um a bit odd isn't it i thought it'd be like more governmental type email it's like both going in the english embassy up somewhere and i'm saying at hotmail.com okay well well anyway he says it sounds very odd to me basically he said it doesn't sound quite right he said the information i received was that this is seeming more and more like a hoax they've told me that basically they don't dispose of their military hardware in this fashion um through pawn brokers in surrey surprisingly enough i don't know why maybe they should i was looking quite hopeful at one point i must admit james's dream of adding nigerian military hardware to his pawnshop's portfolio has been dashed but closer to home another unusual and potentially lucrative find has been unearthed [Music] people have in their houses valuable things they don't even know they had and they could be worth something i think there's a ladder outside 26 year old credit controller michael lives with his single mom flora in bracknell oh full of cobwebs right now i'm the man of the house so everything that has to be done generally i have to do it when your dad isn't around and your mom is doing everything it's tough for her it's hard for her you tend to have to grow up really fast since michael's dad left the family have fallen on hard times obviously you've got debts everyone's got debts that they would like to pay um someone's got to pay the mortgage so that also helps uh so there's a long list of things any help we can get would be appreciated can you manage they need over 10 000 pounds to pay off their debts but a mysterious discovery in the loft might offer some financial hope when we first moved here we bought the house there's a lot of junk around be careful as we were clearing out the actual loft we came across this red box kept it right here okay and that is it there you go you got it handling with care they found what appears to be an antique scroll complete with coat of arms and royal seals it seems like it's worth a lot of money um otherwise it wouldn't be such a fancy box i mean it doesn't look as fancy now because it's so old and how old do you think it's this hundreds recorded in the college of arms i have no idea what it is it's something that's very important to someone hmm so we need to get it to the right person i think the scroll could be worth about ten thousand pounds um if you can find the right buyer the right person then they'll be willing to pay about ten thousand pounds for it if i find out that it's wet something i would know that you know i've hit the jackpot and i'll say god has blessed me you know i see money see dollar signs well pound signs we'll see what we get with no clue as to the scroll's origin or value michael has turned to lawrence at the pawn shop hello good afternoon all right are you i'm glad thank you well looking at that you must be michael yes here's michael well i'm really interested to see these well you don't sell those every day i must admit i've never seen anything like it you look at it first of all you actually you know this could be worth nothing it could be worth thousands and that's when the job becomes exciting to me so we can't date it roughly because we've got grv there so that's george royal fifth okay let's just hope we've got a fortune here for you sounds good to me what are you going to do with it how about family oh that's a nice thing a lot of responsibility yeah what can i say you've got somebody you've got to remember that could be losing their house or something like that and they need the money to carry on living there so yeah the money we lend out is very important and i'm very aware of you know when we're making decisions that we get it right nice to meet you michael i'll speak to you probably the next couple of days all right look after yourself you too cheers yeah i mean i feel i feel pretty happy uh with what went on in there he seems to know his stuff so hopefully i'll have some good news i'll be back a couple of days to pick it up or pick up my money or cash if you will well i don't know who would be interested in this it's like a specialist that is so specialized that we've never actually had anything like it when we get obscure or very valuable items in we sometimes use external valuers we must get that process right and if we get it wrong it could cost us hundreds of thousands of pounds only a handful of british specialists deal in items like this and lawrence has turned to a scroll expert in london to help with the valuation i'm really hoping this is worth some money because the michael he found us and he's lost he's really the nice guy so what do you think i can see what you have is a grant of arms and the reigns of george the fifth from 1911 to 1936. there's a promise thing now that's before i even see and it's typical they're always in red color the victorian ones are maroon colors all right okay i mean it's nice example it's made of leather nicely tooled it's one that's probably given as a type it's a title it's not an honor an honor is something that's given by the country by the state and you have these coats of arms here which will be unique to this person and the gentleman's name is the said frederick bill the crunch question i can make you an offer on it okay well brilliant thank you but will the offer on the table match the ten thousand pounds michael needs to help him and his mom out of debt the pawn broken industry is booming in the uk the market is now worth more than 900 million a year shop owner james trades at the highest end today he's taking horse enthusiast ingrid's diamond necklace to be valued monica looked here she's jumping up and down about it don't get generally that excited but to be honest with you that piece of jewellery when i saw her it was like yeah i did a little michael flatley it's something actually like the queen would wear you know if she uh maybe not to a state banquet but if she was popping down to the corner shop to get a pint of milk with some scratch cards and she fancied the guy work there she might put that on you know god knows how much it's worth i don't know whenever expensive jewellery arrives at his shop james turns to expert in towning ian is one in a million every time i go and see him he's glammed up to the eyeballs he looks like liberace even on a wednesday afternoon ian hi how are you hello how are you not bad you're all right yeah it's good to see you see you you're right yeah all right i haven't got a clue on value but see what you think oh my god i'm not sure about each other wow that's incredible what sort of figure you can expect look at that yeah it's pretty spectacular i think it's probably 50s or 60s well the stones aren't too bad you know the setting the work is pretty good yeah there's only one here with a bit of a black mark in it you know the rest have little little white marks but nothing too serious yes you know if you were thinking all the stones to be absolutely perfect well then you're talking mega money yeah and it's a very stable piece incredible you lucky thing cheers okay thank you thank you you take care you take care ian's appraisal means james now has a more accurate idea of what ingrid's necklace is worth today ingrid is visiting a possible site for her horse importing business hello english nice to meet you nice to meet you i need a yard if i'm going to pursue what i want to do because i would like to have at least 15 horses 15 youngsters if i don't get the money that i want that i'd like then i'm not going to be able to do what i want to do so the dream will be gone really so i do need to sell my my lovely nan's necklace so will she get the 40 000 pounds needed to turn her lifelong ambition into a reality [Music] for james finding a buyer for a stunning piece of jewelry is straightforward but finding one for david's quirky one-man submarine might not be so simple today james is planning a safety test with the sub and has lined up a potential buyer to watch the demonstration seems quite keen i think he may have boats in spain so i think it will add to his portfolio of [Music] toys hey dude mark i'm very well thanks how about you yeah not bad so what are what are your plans with it it's my son's birthday on friday it's his 21st so what i'm thinking about is buying it for a surprise for him okay i'll get changed let's get it in the water and try it out wonderful i look forward to seeing you in your mankini the unwanted prize has never been used it is all set up and it floats possibly the only thing i do know is you've just got to breathe normally breathe normally breathe normally i'm not sure i can manage that that does it that does it all for you good luck cheers the sub may well float but now the pressure's on james to prove it can be operated underwater i was a bit apprehensive at first and i was praying to god please let this thing work the buyer was there and i didn't want to end up with egg on my face it's a shaky start oh my god here's needing some help jesus but james soon gets the hang of things look at it it really goes this is absolutely amazing this is unbelievable i didn't expect this this is outrageous i'm relieved that it's working properly and that james seems to be safe and he's enjoying what he's doing [Music] this is fantastic james is sold on the unusual toy but it's the buyer's opinion that's crucial to the deal's success i would say it's probably the ultimate toys for the boys if i can get the price right i would be very very interested in purchasing it for james it's straight back to the office hoping his hands-on demonstration will help seal the deal hi joe oh yeah you're right yeah how did it go oh that was good was it good you died i was like a man from atlantis under there honestly i had webbed hands when i came out while you're off gallivanting in yellow submarine we've had the phone ringing off the wall yeah i've trained people at richmond i've driven back like a lunatic because we had a flood and i'm now trying to catch up on the paper joe's not impressed with james's underwater joyride but luckily for the business the buyer is i think you can get a deal done possibly around the 3000 but he does want to move quite quickly if that was any good i think if we try to push him for any more you might not be able to get him on board but i think at three grand you could possibly do a deal so the buyer has a potential present for his son's 21st birthday and having negotiated a tricky deal james stands to take a cut of the sale that's good [Music] what i'll do is i'll hand these over we'll get back to the next sort of 20 minutes it's the height of another busy week at the pawn shop and it's up to pa and operations manager joe to keep the business running smoothly that's my new filing system today she's discovered a surprise on their doorstep unexpected construction work what are you going to do about it nothing i don't want to deal with this what's the harm in just putting a notice in the door people i mean i just can't believe that look a barrier across that's our front door there oh god don't mess with her when she's like this whatever you do oh hello um i just want to complain actually we've we're a small business in waybridge on queens road and what is the work being done out there for everyone just seems to think it's no big deal and that you know we don't they don't have to tell you and but you're just saying sorry and then i'm gonna now hang up the phone appreciate that thank you bye is that one of my soups tonight in central london single mom marcella is getting ready for a live performance she's yet to learn if the value of her necklace will be enough to help launch her songwriting career i want to be positive about my gut instinct i mean it feels positive i'm hoping that it's worth about 20 000. trying to keep neutral just wait and see what they say i've got everything crossed thank you so much [Music] over in the richmond shop patrick is working late acting on a hunch he's making a closer inspection of marcella's necklace [Music] there's no real hallmarks on here and i see a stamp for 925 which tells me it's silver it's not gold so therefore the diamonds probably aren't diamonds either they wouldn't set diamonds in silver in ordinary as far as i know when it comes to diamonds the fakes are incredible some of them some of the technology now is amazing and you really have to know what you're doing but this is telling me these aren't diamonds so i don't think it is she's looking for 20 000 pounds she's going to be very disappointed i would think it's going to be maybe i don't know it has i guess a few hundred pounds if patrick's suspicions are correct marcella's family heirloom could be worth a lot less than the twenty thousand pounds she needs [Music] in the pawnshop world loaning against any counterfeit item could cost a business thousands of pounds following patrick's worrying late night discovery james returns to top jeweler ian towning i would like it if you know the guys are pretty self-sufficient in terms of their appraisal but if they've taken something in that's uh not quite right or even fake then i'd be unhappy about it but let's put it that way how are you patrick was very unsure of it [Music] they definitely died yeah yeah i think she's gonna be highly delighted with that so the lady wants to loan against it she wants to learn again yes you need to know what the retail value is exactly well you know i would always be cautious to give too much on these things yeah thank you the diamonds are real but with thousands at stake james's headache is far from over [Music] it's the end of a busy month at the pawn shop and for three customers time to find out how much their items are worth first through the door ingrid who wants to sell the diamond necklace she inherited she hopes it's worth the 40 000 pounds she needs to set up her horse importing business hiya thank you how you been really excited and i can't wait okay well look we've had a good look at it i mean it's a spectacular piece as you probably are aware yes looks like it was um a one-off i know you you had a sort of value in your head of around 40k didn't you yeah um well look to be honest with you there's retail value you're probably looking at about a quarter of a million yeah yeah so no way [Music] we have had an offer from a client a good client of ours of 120 000. obviously there's a massive difference between top retail and what you can actually achieve for it as a private individual wow yeah so that's uh oh my gosh i had no idea that's just absolutely oh wow that's i don't know what to say i was just hoping that i was going to get 40 thousand pounds for it have you ever had it valued no i've never it's just been sat in the cupboard all this time around i mean when you brought it in the box was a little bit dusty yeah it would have been because it's been in the company yeah so that's um amazing and if you accept that offer we can get that done pretty quickly if you you want to take that yes i do definitely well it would get back on to him now and uh we can transfer funds by tomorrow oh my gosh there is a great thrill in telling someone that something's worth five times or ten times more than they anticipated and obviously in some of those cases they're life-changing sums [Music] thanks for coming in thank you so much nice to meet you i can't believe it it's just i would never in my life forever imagine i was gonna get 120k i just it's just incredible it's absolutely incredible i'm not a greedy person i just thought i was ever going to get about 40k for it it's absolutely stunning isn't it 120 000. that was just well that was good enough for me so ingrid leaves with an offer 80 000 pounds more than she was expecting in bracknell 26 year old michael is also hoping for good news will the scroll he found in his attic be valued at 10 000 pounds the amount his family need to get out of debt best case scenario for me 5 000 pounds 10 000 pounds i think that would be great worst case scenario obviously we know what it is [Music] okay now it's time to roll call michael i'm not looking forward to the call but anyway it's time to go ahead with it [Music] hello it's laurence from prestige hi laurence how are you i'm fine so we've got a definitive um answer on the item right okay when you brought it in i did think it was a little bit um i wasn't sure if it was real or not um i was thinking 10 grand [Music] unfortunately right you'd be looking at between 150 and 200 pounds [Music] 150 to 200 pounds yeah and you can't go no i mean he actually offered 150 and i said you're very likable could he do it a bit more he actually said he'd go to 200 right 200 as a maximum wow is that my mom says is that all she's not happy yeah because she's not because she's not happy because i come look she's gonna come looking for you i want to give her money i think i think it's 200 this is good we'll have a big party in my house i'll sort out the money for you and then we'll go from there excellent okay have a good evening you too thank you thanks for calling no worries cheers mate bye that was disappointing i think put up with quite a brave face there but i think he was very very disappointed i lost it when he said ten thousand and then he fell up the chair 200 pounds we're rich we're rich 200 pounds it's uh it's better than nothing i'll take that i'll take that any day the worst part of the job and that's so easy is disappointing people because they've come to us for help and you're basically saying you can't help them that is definitely the worst part of the invest job investors buy some shares five years time double that and then obviously keep going from there and then before you know it we we'll make that million you know what we're talking about it meant to that in london single mom marcella is also waiting on vital news she wants to pawn a necklace passed down from her grandmother for those that i've been waiting for uh i'm gonna find out soon how much the necklace is worth i'm getting quite oh i'm getting quite jittery about that yeah since i took it in it has been going on my head so much i think you know is it worth a thousand is it worth twenty thousand is it worth more i can feel my ticket going ten to the dozen i don't know what i'm gonna do it's not actually worth anything poor old patrick he was put through his paces with this one and he had his doubts about it but under closer scrutiny it was all checked out it was fine patrick hi mate yes oh your old friend my little sleepless nights back in town it's been checked out yeah basically it's uh it's the real deal so we've got some valuations that's good news that was good news you can relay the news to a client [Music] hello hello uh it's patrick from prestige marcelo hi patrick yes it is speaking how yeah i've got some news on your necklace yep it did actually have me a little bit worried at one point but
