Hi Alan, Did you see the "Pickers" show? What did you think of the Veedol sign??? picked for a 100$ sold for 300$ cheap? or not?

Please use For Sale forums to sell

Statements such as, "I'm thinking about selling this." are considered an offer to sell.

I kind of liked the show at first..but as time goes by I really dislike them putting the running tally of how much they made on each item.

That was dirt cheap. Trust me they did not sell it for $300! They had too get way more than that out of it! The Veedol was a good buy on both ends!!

I think that Pickers is just ruinning the possibility for us to find items on the farm. I can hear the owner saying"I saw one sell on TV for $XXXX.XX not the 400 you offered". I think Pawn Stars is better. At least there you know you are not going to get top dollar because they have to make a profit.

Well more and more the guys at "prawn stars" call in an expert who gives a little history on things. but the product placement "like subway sandwiches" is just down right sickening.

It's obvious that American Pickers is all staged. First, why would you buy 4 or 5 items and leave all the rest there? Their offers are all over the place. Anywhere from insulting to over what the item is worth. I like to watch it as a comedy. It makes me laugh!
