Pawn Stars Season 6 Episode 17 Stalled Deals

In season 6, episode 17 of Pawn Stars, entitled "Stalled Deals," the team at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop face new challenges while trying to make deals and turn a profit. As always, Rick Harrison and his team are on the lookout for unique and valuable items that they can buy and sell for a profit.

The episode begins with Rick and Corey examining a 19th century trunk that once belonged to a famous magician. Though the trunk has been heavily damaged over the years, Rick and Corey believe it could still be worth a decent amount of money. However, the seller is asking for a higher price than they are willing to pay, and negotiations come to a standstill.

Meanwhile, Chumlee is shown a vintage payphone from the 1950s. Though it is missing a key part, he believes it could still be worth something to collectors. But when he brings it to Rick for appraisal, Rick tells him that it will only be worth about $200 if it had the missing part. Chumlee decides to take a chance and buys the payphone anyway, hoping to find the missing part and increase its value.

Next, Rick meets with a seller who has an antique corkscrew collection that he obtained from his grandfather. While Rick is interested in the collection, he is unsure if it will be worth enough to make a profit. After some negotiation, they agree on a price, and Rick decides to take a chance on the collection.

Later in the episode, Corey is offered a vintage Raleigh bicycle from the 1950s. He believes it could be worth a lot of money, but the seller is asking for a very high price. Corey offers a lower price, but the seller refuses. Corey ultimately decides not to invest in the bicycle.

Finally, Rick meets with a seller who claims to have an antique perpetual motion machine. Though Rick is skeptical, he agrees to take a look at the machine. When he examines it, he realizes that it is a replica and not authentic. Disappointed, Rick tells the seller that he cannot make an offer.

Throughout the episode, the team faces a number of challenges as they try to make deals and turn a profit. Some deals are successful, while others ultimately fall through. Overall, this episode highlights the ups and downs of the pawnshop business and the importance of making informed decisions when it comes to investing in valuable items.
