Pawn Stars: Original Andy Warhol Paintings (Season 6) | History

Chum proved to be absolutely essential in this deal

[@DeesonJame]

Of course. If he didn't write him up, there'd be no sale.

[@italiantraditionalcatholic2390]

No..the Art dealer..they are super cute pieces of Art..

[@pepe7drum]

But he really knows about art and how much can be valued, at the end i can see him smiling knowing that Rick got that pretty easy and fairly cheap, those pieces are worth tons of money today and that will be increasing he can gain a lot from them

[@jotac87278]

Most auctions are only 10-15%. Ive never seen a 50% auction fee

[@champmeister]

You are correct. Seller's fees usually around that. Rick is probably adding both the buyer and seller's fees together which often adds to around 50 percent but that makes no sense in this situation.

[@fagbag9553]

Most auction fees are a total of of 30%

[@m.p.sutherlandjr.6905]

Christie’s auctions take 35% on items appraised for over three quarters or a million dollars, more if they have to authenticate it themselves. Lower “high-end” auction houses (Vegas especially) are way worse.

[@mauricefaulkner455]

That's right just another buying technique you could easily sell those artworks privately

[@drgonzo3871]

It's a shame, they could have easily been sold to a gallery for 50K for the lot.

[@assmane999]

Yeah, but like Rick said, sometimes auction fees can get as high as 50%. So, he would have made less if he did that

If you are ever in Pittsburgh, I highly recommend visiting the Warhol Museum, which is the largest art museum dedicated to one artist (Warhol was born in Pittsburgh). Just a fabulous museum and there are a number of his shoe and cherub works on display. Warhol was a successful commercial artist prior to becoming an international sensation and his shoe artwork reflects his professional background.

[@whatachola]

I would’ve kept them. There’s no way I would take anything less than six figures for an early hand made Warhol original.

[@seanhart9706]

It was printed and he only did the colours... not exactly six figure material. If you get one you should just hold onto it!

[@Mandolatron]

I'd watch your show. Whatchola Stars

[@guitarsrcool4922]

I guess it all depends on how much you need the money.

[@BostonsF1nest]

I love how the art expert shoots down al of Ricks negativity concerning the pieces... not only in this clip but almost all the time they call that guy in he’s “for the buyer”... I like him a lot and I agree by just looking at them you can tell the water damage is on the outer part of the picture... you could easily just cut that part off if you really wanted to. Rick just tried to leverage his buying power by saying they’re in rough shape when really they’re not. It’s Andy Warhol for Gods sake!

[@LouSassoleSledgecock_III]

The Kids Nice lol you can cut it off? You’re a dumbass

[@LK25278]

yea brett and david are absolutely well respected in their field. their reputation is worth more than low balling somebody on a tv show.

[@dbodooley]

Cut them off!?!? That would be very foolish. That’s equivalent to cleaning valuable coins which destroys its value

[@guitarsrcool4922]

the kids nice- yep. If Rick was in league with the appraiser like so many negative people think, the appraiser would have been agreeing with Rick "yeah Rick that water damage really brings the value down" but such was not the case.

[@TheBelegur]

I am surprised Rick didn't do his I have to get them restored, framed, pay the auction fees, they will sit around the store forever, and I am taking all the risk speech.

[@henrysawyer3051]

I know he always says that, but I doubt an Andy Warhol original would sit around the store forever

[@cron205]

Its andy warhol that's why he didn't need to give that speach

[@sparklekitty99ify]

Why do these sellers never contact museums or notable collectors first? I’m sure the Warhol Museum in Pitt would have loved these prints and definitely would have bought them for over $27k.

[@missionpupa]

Couple of reasons, 1. They dont exactly have a rolodex for rich people who want to buy fine art. 2. You think museums dont know how to haggle? 3. Its a much more straightforward transaction: give me your art and I will give you cash on the same day.

[@LegionarioCruel]

Also, museums do not own everything on display, and even what they own they didn't buy, they get it from donations.

[@AlexanderTheGreat1000]

Rolodex? Its 2020 .there is google buddy. Smh

[@dolfanchambers84]

@@AlexanderTheGreat1000 it was 2019 when he wrote the comment, so your point is invalid. lol

[@jrock2720]

highly recommend going to the warhol museum. i visited pittsburgh a number of years ago and it was the absolute highlight of my trip. there is a section of the museum with a number of watercolors on display with subjects such as cats, cherubs and shoes. museums don't pay top dollar, especially today with the major artists going for ridiculous amounts of money. if this gentleman was benevolent, he could have donated them to the museum, which is how many museums build their collections. i don't blame him for selling them though.

[@johnfakename3669]

Rick couldn’t have closed the deal without Chum standing there. Eyes glazed. Mouth hanging open. He is ESSENTIAL!

[@SamPlusNone]

😂😂😂

[@whizzzerr]

I worked at The Warhol Museum. These pieces aren’t prints. They are ink blot pieces that were hand done by Warhol. They were made during the time period when Warhol was a commercial artist in NYC…pre Pop Art. They are worth MUCH MORE than what these jokers paid the seller. He should have gone to a legitimate art gallery in NYC.

[@charlesyoo8369]

Chum did a good job by not saying anything 😂

[@hakeem34olajuwon25]

the moment he saw the expert tell the seller about how much he could get for them at the auction, Rick immediately had to downplay the auction and say the fee's can go up to 50%, because he knows most times sellers are going to take the auction route after hearing how much they can actually get for them.

[@judemorales4U]

Just started watching these, and the guy with Warhol was a good negotiator. Everyone else let's Rick win.

[@strxnqer788]

[@ryanpacatte6054]

I’ll auction them for 10% lol

[@miumiurussell9253]

Also another thing the man said someone from the factory got them but the expert says they were from before the factory so smth didn’t add up

[@sirjcc]

he just makes it up. I've also heard him say auction fees are 20% before. The number he gives is based on how much he wants to rob you for

[@LuisMercadoorg]

That lowballed hard. There’s NO way that a pre Factory Warhol original sells in an action for that low.

Luis Mercado most likely that was the bottom amount of money they could get in a really bad day at auction

[@davidmellish3295]

PuNKD Steven most English auctions u don’t pay fees anymore it’s called a buyers premium the buyer pays the commission on top I think most big auction houses do this now so rick is talking bullshit have the time there is no commission just some fees that are 5% max

[@BostonsF1nest]

He’s exaggerating... it’s more like 20-30%... he’s just trying to leverage his buying power in this situation with the only plausible concern the seller might have because he knows they’re in immaculate condition. Even the water damage on them is limited to the outer edge of the painting
