Ep 10. Ship Happens

In the seventeenth season of Pawn Stars, the team at the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas is back for another exciting episode. In episode ten, titled Ship Happens, the focus is on everything nautical.

First up is a set of World War II ship alarms, which the seller claims came from a battleship. Rick is intrigued by the unique items and starts negotiations with the seller. His friend and colleague Chumlee is skeptical and thinks the alarms look like they come from a fire station rather than a ship. Will Rick take a chance and make a deal, or will he heed Chumlee's advice and pass on the item?

Next, Rick gets a glimpse into how the other half lives with a rare invitation to tour a luxury yacht. But it's not just any yacht – this vessel used to belong to billionaire and former Microsoft CEO Paul Allen. Rick is awestruck by the yacht's opulence and the unique features, including its personal basketball court. But when Rick gets an opportunity to negotiate for a piece of naval history, will he have enough funds to make an offer?

Meanwhile, Chumlee and Corey get a kick out of a vintage sailboat toy. The charming wind-up toy dates back to the 1930s and still works like a charm. The guys find themselves enamored with the toy and its simplicity. But when it comes down to hammering out a price, the seller is stubborn. Will the guys be able to make a deal and add the toy to their collection?

The nautical theme continues as the gang inspects a fancy 19th-century compass in a decorative case. The seller claims the compass came from a captain in the Navy. Rick is especially keen on the compass's case, which is made with inlaid wood and mother-of-pearl. But when it comes to making an offer, the seller is hesitant to part with his prized possession. Will Rick be able to convince him to make a deal?

Finally, the team looks at a collection of antique diving gear. The seller, who is a retired Navy diver, shows off his rare and valuable collection of gear, including a deep-sea diving helmet and a set of brass diving shoes. The gear is in excellent condition and has been well-kept over the years. But when it comes time to negotiate, Rick finds himself in a quandary. He loves the gear but isn't sure he can make a fair offer. Can he find common ground with the seller and bring the valuable items back to the shop?

Overall, Ship Happens is a thrilling episode of Pawn Stars that takes viewers on a journey into the world of nautical antiques. With plenty of unique and rare items, there's something for everyone in this episode. Will the guys be able to make a deal and add to their collection, or will they pass on the items and wait for the next big thing to come through their doors? Tune in to find out.
