This one hits home for me because it wasn't until late in life that I became aware that my father had saved a fellow soldier's life at Omaha Beach on D-Day. The man who was saved was carrying a heavy radio when their LCT was sunk and would doubtless have drowned if my father had not kept him afloat. Unfortunately I did not find this out until my father had died. No watch however, just a life-long friendship.

I bet someone inherited it.

People are always whining in comments about Rick supposedly ripping people off, he knew she paid $20 for it and he gave her $1300.

[@Racer997]

What a person pays for something and what it’s value is are two separate things. If you paid $500 bucks for a Ferrari valued at $500,000, and I offered you $5,000, would you take it? That’s literally 10 times what you paid for it so you should be happy, right?

[@BlueRidgeCritter]

I think I lost my faith in humanity on this one. 🤣 He paid $1100 for the engraving, about a little known skirmish on a watch made in the late 1800s. That's about it. The Wm Ellery grade Waltham is only worth at best maybe $300, 350 if there's something particularly special about it, like a gold filled case or something. It was an upper mid grade, hugely produced. In the watch collecting world, even with the inscription it wouldn't bring more than about 400. I think sometimes the show is more… for show. LOL

@@SaberRiryi Neither side is interested in a "fair deal". They just want to get that number as high or low as they can. Part of a buyer's strategy is gauging how much a seller would settle for. They know that number is usually lower if the seller doesn't have much money into the item.

[@Stormie33]

@@kayakdog121 Do you really think Rick would've paid even more than $1,300 if not for that? Frankly, he overpaid as it is. $1,000 would've been more than fair. He said himself it's like a $450 watch and that the engraving has sketchy value because the people involved aren't known commodities. Yet despite her having only paid $20 for it, which like you said, should've weakened her bargaining position, Rick nearly doubles his initial offer and pays triple what the watch itself is worth. She easily came out the winner here.

I remember awhile back a seller telling Rick how much he paid for an item (overpaid) when the expert gave a low value for it. Rick responded, "That is none of my concern!" Afterwards, he continues to ask customers how much they paid for an item when he previously said it was none of his concern. The only thing that counts at the moment is how much it is worth today and how much Rick is willing to come towards toward that amount.
