Rick Pitched The Show
Rick knew his store would make for a good reality TV show and so he pitched it a lot, long before it even got picked up!

Ancient Artifacts
One fortunate man purchased a vivid medal for $.75 at a yard sale. When the man brought his medallion into the shop, Rick had a good feeling about it and bought the item for $6,000. When an expert assessed the medal, they realized it dated back to the Tsarist occupation of Poland.

Corey Got In Trouble For Public Urination
Corey Harrison and some of his friends took a motorcycle trip through Missouri before ending up in Jefferson City. As we would expect, Harrison and his crew got inebriated which led to some bad decisions and one very awkward photo. Harrison relieved himself publically and wasn’t bothered by this.
A few weeks later Harrison did finally realize his fault and made a public apology for the unwise act.
