Hey, what's up? I have a dated 1857 silver
bucket from Tiffany & Co. This one came from a yard sale. Just out of curiosity, what
where they asking for it? Rather not say. It was [inaudible]. That little, huh? It's amazing what you can
find at these yard sales. There's no attachment
to antiques like there used to be in the past. It's not uncommon to find
something that is something of very high value that
they don't place value on, but they just want
to get rid of it. I'm assuming
it's an ice bucket. Yeah, that's what I was told. OK. It is Tiffany, which is just
one of those iconic American, you know, luxury brands
that will be around forever. I mean, this is the company that
makes the Super Bowl trophy. This is the kind
of stuff people got people back then for weddings. Obviously they were pretty
well to do because they didn't get them the cheap crap. They actually got
them Tiffany's. People all over the world
know the brand Tiffany. Nowadays people mostly know
them for their jewelry, but what they've really been
known for is stuff like this. And the fact that this
is Tiffany's makes it very collectible if I can
get it for the right price. So what are you
looking to do with it? Well, I checked with
an auction company, and the quote that I got
was $8,000 on the bucket. That is really rich
for my blood, my man. I mean, we have, what, $600,
$700 worth of sterling silver here, which is a lot. And because it's Tiffany's,
I'd offer you, like, $1,000. You have to see my side of it. There's not very many people
lining up to pay $1,800, $2,000 for an ice bucket-- not to say it's not rare,
not to say it's not valuable. Are you willing to come down
from that $8,000 at all or-- I would. I'm thinking around
$6,000, yeah. Buddy, I'd go up to $1,500. That would be the most I'd pay. Right. Yeah, I understand. So is that a no on your end? Yeah, I just-- that's just-- Maybe next time you come in
we'll be able to make a deal. [inaudible], OK. Take care, buddy. Thanks so much. I'm not disappointed at all. I think that the
bucket would bring a lot more at an auction house.
