[@pandaypira4346]

Let my call my buddy who is expert in cutting prices in half. Steve came in!

[@jasonmichael3676]

You've lost your mind if you agree with the customers' asking-prices.

[@fjccommish]

Rick "Mind if I bring in my expert Low Ball Lonnie?"

[@robertmccormick4888]

Lmao

[@jasonmichael3676]

Customers ask 5, 10, even 40X what their item is worth....yet not one word about that from commenters.

[@misssymeeefamily6260]

Great book and Blanche’s writing is worth more! She helped Clyde because she loved and married his brother...she was on the run with Bonnie and Clyde while they committed crimes and lost her eye in a shootout when her husband died.

[@simfong999]

Rebecca might know more

[@johnnn5592]

Simon Fong ooh im sure she does

[@714milky]

He's the worst expert on the show.

[@joefonicello]

I'd rather he called in Rebecca than ask this fraud

[@FounderofGoogle]

I love rebecca shes my wifey

[@mikecronis]

Rebecca always knows more.

[@scottydirkers7855]

I love it when the seller turns down Rick's low-ball offer.

[@jakepeterson1121]

I love it when the seller gets along with Mr. Brown famously

[@gamerslatestnews819]

Don’t spoiled the video dumb kid

[@marcuswilson6640]

Well if it was the original i would definitely understand it going for so much more

[@marissahammer2229]

*OMG!* If the man's who's selling her manuscript is reading this - I'll pay you what you're asking for (probably more!) What they offered here to him was a CRIME!

[@aounhaider6024]

its a pawn shop there suppose to sell it for a higher price to gain profit. That's how pawn shops work -_-

[@josephmeetstravel9762]

I agree it's worth way more than asked for.

[@marissahammer2229]

Vogt Auction - Thank you Robert! I'll definitely make sure to throw in a bid or two tomorrow for it, I really appreciate you telling me about this auction.

[@rickster2344]

Now I’m curious. What did it sell for?

[@johnbrett8788]

Marissa Hammer hi marissa let me know if you got it. It would be such a great piece to own.

[@marcuswilson6640]

Wow i saw this in a bonnie and clyde documentary. The previous owner was a friend of Blanch herself. I didnt know she ended up selling it. She wrote this right after the shoot out with towns people when the gang was held up in the woods. Her husband was shot while bonnie and Clyde kept running. She stayed behind with her husband when she was caught and started writing the manuscript. Its a really amazing piece i would buy it in a heart beat. In the manuscript it talks about how clyde was raped in prison and his first official kill was the man who raped him. He talked another prisoner into taking the fall for the murder. The crime spree started once he got out.

[@Nefarioso]

Rick said Bonnie and Clyde never wrote anything, however Bonnie wrote a poem "The Story Of Bonnie & Clyde" and it was published in newspapers before their deaths. It was even in the 1967 film, Rick.Sheesh! And why did they have to call in Rick's handwriting expert when the seller told Rick that photos of some of Blanche's manuscript appear in the book?! Was it so the "expert" could lowball the item?

[@salseros1985]

I have a feeling these guys already say the price to the guys they calling so when they value it, its lower than what they ask and they can have a higher margin

[@jcnnygarcia]

“It’ll be difficult to sell. This is not Bonnie & Clyde stuff this is Clyde’s sister in law stuff” Oof I’d still buy it because it’s BLANCHE !

[@David_Me825]

At least that manuscript get along famously...

[@docilecrocodile6362]

Chumlee and meth got along famously.

[@6lackRain]

Hostile Crocodile 😂

[@masterchief8726]

Hostile Crocodile sounds so fun

[@Thebeerhistorian]

He's into coke

[@alholguin2265]

Good one

[@nsphoenix6660286]

Chumlee high off meth his friend too that taller fat one you can easily see it in their 👀

[@briefcaseblues6061]

Don't ever tell them how much your asking when you know they're going to call in an expert.

[@joemcgowan6304]

Mr. Clyde and Bonnie got along famously.

[@marcuswilson6640]

I would buy it. She documented every minute of there adventures together right before bonnie and clyde had the shoot out and was killed

[@coachzgaming3285]

A big collector will pay more then $2.400 or $3.500 cant get any better then this 😒

[@forrestgump7553]

@Chelsea Chelsea Not today it didn't.

[@forrestgump7553]

@Chelsea Chelsea Since interest in the Barrow gang has inflated recently due to movies the price it could bring today would be close to triple. of what you quoted.

[@OCPDesigns]

Mr. Famous and I got along brownly.

[@thedon9158]

you win the internet... for now

[@Alex_Donnovan]

Sounds so fun!

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

Did we?

[@LoudFlimzz]

I actually LOL'd

[@gogoi.p]

How do you get brownly? You smear feces on each other or something?

[@KevinMartinez-pt5zl]

Do you think Mr.Brown got along famously with the Mr.Brown jokes?

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

Yes!

[@deniselewis5160]

Luv luv luv when the seller turns down the offer

[@shadyspears]

I love Bonnie and Clyde

[@jh1328]

Steve dresses like the kind of guy who likes Chris Angel and Nickelback.

[@fonzycampos4416]

I never thought to realize when he says I'm going to bring a buddy in he's helping them out they help him out

[@benjaminortiz4528]

Everything that literally walks into that shop is going to be hard to sell best sales pitch ever

[@willsmith1211]

Ohhg steve "THE FRAUD"" guy.. Run run run

[@IZFLAT_VAX_FREE]

I would buy it from 3,000 to 5,000 no question. I love the storys, they went through my town & stayed in a residents not to far from me.

[@davidj8658]

You’re as illiterate as she was. Stories, residence.

[@unnamed715]

Rick: So what'cha got here? Seller: I've got the fountain of youth. Rick: How much ya want for it? Seller: $1,000 Rick: *sigh* Best I can do is $1. No one's ever sold one of these, it's a rare one of a kind item, therefore it's difficult to gauge its value. The most I'll go is $1.50, I'm taking a big risk here.

[@coreystack5655]

unnamed715 every pawn stars clip I watch a scroll thru the comments hoping to see these kinda comments. Thank you!

[@unnamed715]

Coco Mccrackin Same here. Of course at times I can't resist making my own. :P

[@CarlosRivera-bd6hp]

unnamed715 you know what let me call a buddy of mine, he's lived forever. He'll know more about it than I do.

[@johnjenks7812]

Talking to yourself is a sign of madness!

[@ptlofts]

You forgot to mention that Rick still have to frame it and frame it costs a lot...

[@res394cue]

Bonnie & Clyde got along with Mr Brown famously.

[@alejandromavarez164]

Brett Nangle lmfao evey damn time

[@fjccommish]

They stole the ball from YA Tittle.

[@trevorasher3769]

Looks like it's got a name engraved on it...

[@oliverjustin5940]

Im sure it was so fun

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

We sure did

[@jamalklotz9683]

Happy new year

[@benwainfifa]

Wonder if mr brown & bonnie & clyde got along famously

[@benwainfifa]

1st famously comment i must get along famously with mr brown

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

We sure did

[@josephmeetstravel9762]

I think it's more than $3,000 honestly.

[@merrymaurader8283]

Joseph Meets Travel mr brown and I don’t think it’s more than $3K

[@virgilanderson8420]

i dont know tho so ill have to call in an expert

[@patman0250]

of curse it is why do you think they are selling it in the shop for more ..

[@easytherepilgrim2339]

I don't. But if you do, go ahead and buy it for $3k.

[@perry690]

Joseph Meets Travel you’re not a professional so

[@moea.9120]

That guy almost got Bonnie and Clyded.

[@hakeem34olajuwon25]

id love to see more sellers just say no the second he puts out an offer thats lower than what they've just stated their rock bottom is, he says my rock bottom is 3000$, the second rick would have said 2,400$ i would have said nope the second he said it.

[@luckap79]

Just waiting on the famously jokes

[@alejandromavarez164]

LUCKY Lmao same there's already like 4

[@masterchief8726]

LUCKY sounds so fun...

[@merrymaurader8283]

LUCKY mr brown and LUCKY got along luckily and famously

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

About who?

[@luckap79]

Mr.Brown lmaoooooo

[@mensa517]

he did good by turning down ricks offer, it could go for 10g's at auction

[@jasonmichael3676]

Highly unlikely. Especially since it's a wife of a brother of the person of interest, who was only associated for 1 month.

[@joshfilmsstuff9769]

It sold for $2,100 at auction lol

[@harrisamin4809]

Is there anything Rick can sell easily or doesn't cost him much to repair :/

[@benoitlabrecque4513]

Harris Amin silver. Most silver bullion/coins are bought for not so much less than the worth

[@bernie4366]

That manuscript should be easily worth 5500.00 to a collector. Prob considerably more. I think they just bring in guys with interesting items, not people actually trying to sell those items. I believe this man could get his price in one afternoon on the phone to noted collectors.

[@beatrixbrennan1545]

I'm a huge fan of bonnie and clyde, I'd pay 5k for this all day

[@oatmealwarpaint6400]

They're forgetting that Mr. Brown was also famously in the Bonnie and Clyde gang.

[@miketheyunggod2534]

You know Rick won’t budge if he’s not exited about it right away.

[@eddardstarkwardenofthenort4742]

Hey the expert that got in some trouble lol... Got to watch those experts haha

[@apacifistmachinegunner669]

“A piece of the Titanic? There is really no market for sunken , Legendary ships.... Best I can do is 5 Bucks..... and I’m taking a gamble..”

[@izaelcarbajal]

I think Clyde and Mr Brown would get along famously with bonnie

[@cappystrano1]

Bonnie's brown got along with Clyde....famously....

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

You think?

[@Gold-oj8do]

I believe this sold at a Heritage Auction in October of 2006 for $2,150.00.

[@marius2416]

theres not even episode where said got along with Mr Brown famously lol

[@octobersvo6870]

So what’s the story on that “expert”? , I heard he was crooked?

[@twopumpsandimdone309]

Octobersvo 6 that’s what I was thinking

[@Station7Jason]

I used to work for PSA/DNA (Shipping, by no means a signature/handwriting expert) dude is def a fraud, lied about being an FBI written intel analyst at one point too, no doubt he knows a few things here and there but still a big liar

[@DanglingDingleBerry]

He's a fraud. He was a fucking radio DJ or something before he decided to become a "handwriting expert". He went to college for communications or something but dropped out after one semester. He has no formal training AT ALL in handwriting analysis, and the guy who "taught him everything he knows" about authenticating signatures has done jail time for fraud for selling forged autographs through his online business. This fatso is the THIRD "handwriting expert" they have had on this show and ALL of them have been outed as frauds. I have no idea why they continue to use him because him being a fraud is NOT some kind of secret, ESPECIALLY in the world of autograph authentication.

[@patman0250]

yeah crooked as fuck !! ps all these so called experts are working for rick do you really think for one minute that they don't have some kind of fucking back door deal when they give their estimate !? they obviously bribed into giving the lowest value so rick can rip people off ! its not just wrong its fucking illegal you think these so called experts wont do that because of their reputation !!?? think again when it comes to money things like trust and honesty gos right out the fucking window !!

[@angelaluna7042]

I

[@Disasterpiece151]

I'm early to get along famously with mr.brown

[@Juan-vn9fn]

Tarub fuck i was gonna write that

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

I think we can get along famously

[@anonymousjoker946]

Oh boy Mr Brown comments are like. Whaaats uupp!!!

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

Anonymous Joker you called my name?

[@mustacheman19]

There's an old wives tale that Mr Brown and I got along famously

[@popularculturetv4687]

I'm thinking that would be worth a lot more money! I'm very surprised that even an expert thinks it's only worth a few thousand!

[@colebailey7790]

Man: can you break a 50 Rick: I will give you 12 and I'm really taking a risk. Man: how about 30 Rick: 12 and not a dime higher

[@smokeya2]

Mr.Brown and I got along famously!

[@Slammy555]

The Barrow notes sold for $2150 in auction.

[@Frank75288]

the expert has some love handles on him

[@alexandrehozyun7068]

It's pretty inderesting

[@bennyconger8463]

Clyde Borrow was part of my family some where.

[@Mrvwcc11]

I didn’t know there was a gang just the two people. Bonny and Clide.

[@bretthardingtelford8043]

What a shake down

[@aulis238]

And mr brown got along famously :)

[@janedidonato5720]

That authenticator was proven as a fraud hence why he's no longer on the show

[@coolboonz9584]

I wonder if Bonnie and Clyde got along famously with mr Brown?

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

We sure did!

[@blake86303]

He should sell it to the casino in Primm where the shot up car is.

[@rickowenkennedy]

EVERYTHING Rick buys is going to be "difficult to sell." Poor Guy...

[@bigjerm210ify]

I don't think mr. brown would have gotten along famously with Bonnie and Clyde

[@MrBrown-wn2yh]

Jeremy Montemayor i dont think so either

[@Authoratah]

I was waiting for Rick to use the word "risk" and sure enough.....

[@jenniferarmstrong1351]

I want this

[@nathanhamilton5982]

Cool

[@EGarrett01]

Notice that Rick asks the person for their best price and THEN makes his lowball return offer from there, treating that like their first ask.

[@Dodogssaywooforruff]

I met Mr Brown once we got into a fight famously.

[@madisonsteen8780]

HEY WHATS UP HELLO I'M JUST HERE GIVE YOU SOME WATERMELON.

[@jeffd1986]

I’d give him the 3500 in a second! Definitely worth more than the numbers they’re talking.

[@HarrySingh-pd6lk]

Dude said “mathematical risk” lol

[@mmafyasco]

something something mr. brown

[@paidcheese8046]

I wonder if she got along with Mr. Brown famously

[@SkyelarEagle]

Lol he said you know I'm illiterate

[@melindabeth]

This is both awesome and hilarious! What's up with the awkward pause after "...amusement park memorabilia." ?? 😂

[@TenaciousCinemas]

I always wondered if Rick got along famously with Bonnie and Clyde? haha

[@F5_cena]

Yes

[@themonkeyhand]

Glad he didn't sell it. It was really lowballed, first person hand written account of Bonnie and Clyde. It would be a real prize for any crime museum. It's better than the book as they even mentioned how they "cleaned it up" for print, no telling what was removed or what can be learned from her "errors".

[@cainpoe]

Bonnie and Clyde got along with the law famously.

[@user-tu9bg3md9z]

what chum said at 2:25 ???

[@jacehunter25]

Pause the video and go to 0:45 ok so do you see those trains in between Chum and Rick(? Sorry im not good with remembering things....) but i have those trains and the case they say "New York Central" and i was wondering if they are worth something?😅

[@zediahtimmons9704]

You got me No Rebecca

[@flowerboi1815]

Wasn't that guy a fraud?

[@elduce6277]

if i came in to the shop to sell something and rick asks someone to take a look at it . I want mr brown to do it or a guy who famously got along with him

[@Ramon_92]

Guy walks in with the first bible ever written " Rick- Best i can do is 10$"

[@jimmy_iKoN]

Mr Brown famously

[@jasonherrera7793]

best I can do is $2

[@JustinSteereMusic]

I'm starting to notice and understand why the prices are so low on some of these historical items. A lot of their authentication people are estimating the price off of what they think would be an attractable price for buyers that might want to buy these items at the shop. If these people want to get more out of rare history items like this one their best bet is to try their luck out at an auction. It's obvious most of these people just want to be on TV. But if it was me I would get the item appraised and then try their luck out at an auction if they really want to sell it.

[@TURDSnBEEF1]

The autograph expert is peacocking like crazy. How many out dated massive rings, and ugly bracelets can 1 chubby bald guy with a half beard wear?

[@bottle1lack743]

Also chains on his neck

[@aarondettmer5416]

that would go for ten grand all day

[@aDogNamedHandsome]

It's worth a lot more than that.

[@eddiemedina7018]

They never show the phone calls. I bet Rick says "through out a low number and lmk what it's really worth later", LMAO.

[@JayJay-bj6so]

A salesman doesn’t say “this isn’t a easy sell”

[@Clark3218]

rick you cant just go off what you think will happen “it’s probably...” “i think...” like you say that to everybody

[@charleserickson7948]

I bet mr. Brown would get along famously with Ricks dad.

[@heilvictory729]

Rick was on Opie and Anthony and he said that they almost always come back and say OK....I want the deal. But they never agree to go back on camera.

[@GIOVANNITH3G35FAN]

2,400 dollar's? its apart of history

[@aaronkeller7182]

So? Pieces of history have a value to collectors. Yes its a part of history, but that doesnt mean you cant put a price on it.

[@ChaseSepulvado]

Giovanni The G35 Fan that expert has proven to be an uneducated liar of the highest order he cost so many people on this show tons of money basically making up his own low ball figures im sure he got a bonus from the Harrison's for doing so

[@DeadAbeVigoda]

If he had brought in Jesus Christ's teddy bear, Rick would have rubbed his head, sighed, spotted flaws in it and offered a dime. That seller was absolutely correct to stand firm and walk.

[@seokhoonjun6138]

Yah, they just talked about it for 5 minutes for the valuation...$2400 at a pawnshop.

[@RAnDomMaN0394]

It’s because they didn’t get along famously with mr brown

[@blackking8833]

The show should be call "let me call a friend"

[@hialeahs5574]

Costumer: Yes can I have this for 300 dollars? Rick: Make that 299 and you got a deal

[@ewilliams8565]

C'mon Rick. . . you should definitely know that "everyone" didn't die in that shootout. Buck was the only one who was mortally wounded and he didn't even die until the next run in w/ police. I think everybody knows how Bonnie & Clyde met their demise. Jus saying. Was surprised nobody else had commented on this yet
