Ep 1. Mad Deals

In the season 13 premiere episode of Pawn Stars named "Mad Deals," the Harrison family is back at the helm of the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, ready to wheel and deal with customers from all walks of life. As usual, the shop is full of interesting and unusual items, and the Harrison family is on the hunt for some mad deals.

The episode starts with Chumlee, who has made it his mission to find unique and profitable items that he can bring into the shop. He stumbles upon a vintage Hot Wheels track set, complete with cars and accessories. Chumlee is impressed with the set's condition and rarity and decides to take it to Rick for appraisal.

After a careful examination, Rick offers the seller $400 for the entire set, which the seller eagerly accepts. Rick believes that he can triple his investment by selling the set to a collector, but he'll have to do some research to determine its real value.

Meanwhile, Corey is dealing with a different kind of customer, one who has brought in a Louis Vuitton trunk from the 1920s. While it's not in the best condition, the trunk still has a lot of character, and Corey believes that it could be worth something. A Louis Vuitton expert confirms that the trunk is authentic and could be worth up to $12,000 if fully restored. Corey offers the customer $4,000 for the trunk, but the customer isn't willing to budge on the price.

Later, the guys are visited by a man with an interesting item - a uniform and paperwork from World War II belonging to a member of the famous Flying Tigers squadron. The seller is hoping to get $1,000 for the collection, but Rick thinks it could be worth more. He consults with an expert on World War II memorabilia, who confirms that the items are authentic and rare. Rick offers the seller $1,500 for the collection, and the seller happily agrees.

Finally, the episode ends on a high note as the Harrisons are visited by a man with a guitar he claims belonged to Elvis Presley. The guitar is a Gretsch Black Falcon, one of only a few made in the 1950s. The guitar's authenticity is somewhat in question, however, as the owner admits that he has no evidence to prove that Elvis ever played it. Rick decides to take a chance on the guitar and offers the seller $75,000 for it.

Overall, "Mad Deals" is a typical episode of Pawn Stars - full of interesting items and deals, with each of the Harrisons using their expertise to appraise and negotiate the best prices possible. Fans of the show will enjoy seeing the family back in action, and the unique items featured in this episode are sure to intrigue viewers who are interested in history, pop culture, and collectibles.
