Default All I can say is WOW!

Pawn stars is one of my favorite shows. And I just saw something cool. This old man walks in and Rick says whatcha got? A 1932 Lincoln KM convertible V12. He bought it from a car museum 10 years ago. It was 95% perfect. Rick and the old mans eyes popped out of their heads. He says what do you want for it? He says $100,000. Rick says I'll just give you $85k. Nope $100,000 firm. Rick offers him $95k. Nope. Rick says Ok! Whats it going to take to close this deal? The old man says I tell you what. I'll trade it for gold. Since Rick can't trade it for gold he'll just give the guy the cash and he can buy the gold. Rick hands him $95,000 in one big brick of cash. And the old man buys the gold. And a security guard escorts him out to his car. Now I know what $95,000 cash looks like. It's a brick of $100 dollar bills about 8" thick. I didn't even know they had ever made a V12 Lincoln. But it's truly badazz. Even has a rumble seat. Rick said that in perfect condition they go for $170,000

I was watching pawn stars tonight. I miss that.
I did catch the document signed by John Handcock that
went for $5000 and the fake royal jewelery that went for $3k.
No cars but he also bought a used submarine

The place is great to visit when in vegas.
