Pawn Stars + Commercial Review 4-19-2010

Surprisingly, there was no news in the papers this week about the Pawn Stars. I found a good link to Rick's Restoration: http://ricksrestorations.ning.com/
The first guy brought in an antique coffee grinder. The grinder was found in Los Angeles. The guy wanted $500 but Rick offered $200. And it went for $200. The grinder was sent to Rick's Restoration and they painted it reddish brown. The cost for the restoration was $350 and it can sell for $1800-2500.
The next lady brought in a 1967 Rat Patrol lunch box. It seems collectors are buy old lunch boxes now. Rick offered $20 and the lady decided to keep it.
The next guy brought in an antique Indian statue. The guy wanted $900 and the Old Man offered $400 and did not budge from that figure. It sold for $400. While Corey and Chumlee were lugging to the back room, they were out of shape and so Rick challenged them to an obstacle race in the parking lot after making a pitch for Subway.
The next guy brought in a private film footage of FDR. The seller was quite knowledgeable of the film and how he got it. They showed the film in the backroom. The guy wanted $90,000. Rick decided to pass because it was a priceless item.
During the obstacle course, I noticed the Old Man with a cane. I've never seen it when I visited the shop. Corey won but it looked like a couple beluga whales out of water running and then Rick made another commercial for Subway.
The second episode was last seen on 2-1-2010 http://lasvegasbadger.blogspot.com/2010/02/pawn-stars-revie-2-1-2010.htm
