“I stole it from someone on a motorcycle” 😂😂😂
That's why she called him an "asshole"!!!
@@iRtraviss everyone ignored that detail to make her seem crazy lol
@@computerwaste5950 Oh, she's crazy for sure. Don't let her near the sharp objects.
@@iRtraviss yeah okay man
@@computerwaste5950They ignored it because it was very obvious sarcasm.
Who would’ve known watching weird people pawn things was so entertaining.
It’s why Hardcore Pawn was so popular back then.
@marcoslopez_ except this is real 😂
Hardcore was staged,well most of it@lwplwp
@randomperson8913 😂😂
@randomperson8913😂 I’m from Lynn, Massachusetts I feel your pain.
That woman interrupted her daily drinking just long enough to come in and insult a customer. You handled it very well
Alcoholics gonna alcohol
It's meth, 100%
The alcohol was a buffer. Meth was her drug of choice and the reason for her acting so bizarre
definitely meth, fentanyl or opioids.. that's usually their choice of drug
meth*
I love how the cat just walks around the store "patrolling". 🤣
She's the store security paw-trol 😂
Same. On one video he walks on a leather jacket some guy is claiming to be worth $1200 or some bs and in one step the cat called him out on his crap, lol. The guy was actually chill and just started petting the cat.
The cat is the owner
@@Neverender3367no the cat have a nose for money as Pete told many times he will buy everything the cat will sit and walking on! So I want you to stop trolling
The bird is the lookout.
He can’t make payroll bc he used $29k to buy a Rolex
Pro tip: Never take investment advice from this guy...
Also we're talking thousands and thousands of dollars, and he said since you were closre, by like 20 minutes or whatever he would try him first. even though he knew better chance of getting more in whatvere city they live near. This guy is doing something shady!
Nice how you intervene to politely defend your customer. Very professional.
It would seem obvious that your business's success relies very much on your ability to interact with your customers in a civil and respectful manner. You do a top notch job in accomplishing that challenge. This episode is a good case in point.
not passive or aggressive just right in the middle
Well, he’s also filming himself… so he has the luxury of making himself look good.
@@dougl945no just the luxury of being self-aware
I would have denied business with BEAVIS "I stole it"
@@freddyfish835 Assertiveness is the word.
She seemed like she was doing more than drinking. You handled the situation well.
Probably on pills too
Xanax bars
Peter, you handled that situation perfectly. 👏
Agreed
Stop it !
Never understood the collecting of shoes. I always thought that shoes were meant to be worn...😅🤣
Collecting anything is weird. Shoes are at least functional, what the hell is up with sports cards?
What's not to understand? By the logic you should think collecting anything is weird. And if that's the case you should think hobbies in general are weird
@@jessebanwell5705 Functional only if they're worn\used. Useless just sitting in boxes or on shelves.
I really enjoyed the interaction with the Rolex guy. It was interesting to watch them figure things out, simply agree to disagree, and even end up with a solid recommendation. That's how you do business! I wish I lived there to check out the stuff he's got. It seems like a really comfortable and fun spot.
Someone is off their meds and on something else. Thank you for the grace you showed, Pete.
You can tell she was drunk, I'm guessing a regular day drinker, most act like that.
I agree but she choose to drink not take the meds.
@@thehemwickhag9270 She was clearly intoxicated, don't be so rude either, are you ok? Did you have a bad day? Anyone with a brain can see she's intoxicated, drugs or drink, one or both.
@@UlrichLeland you know her? why so defensive?
She's lonely, too.
It never ceases to amaze me "Give me 20k and you'll have no problem flipping it at 23k" If that were true, why can't they do it?
Shady dude trying to make payroll… he’s definitely on the IRS radar
And the say the fakes are getting harder to spot. Lot a cash to learn the hard way.
dont think the guys are getting payed this week thanks alot uncle joe
I bet my two kids that watch is fake.
@@freebird1ification always uncle joes fault, never the shady business owner
Pete, you really are the consummate pro at your business - there’s always gonna be odd customers, but you handled everything in the most pleasant and professional way, and everybody saved face
I was starting to wonder whether that guy really thought he could convince you to buy that watch, or if he just liked listening to himself talk. You are a patient man to listen so politely to all of that.
In that situation it obviously pays to be patient & in listening mode, to play the long game, if the guy's payroll commitment meant he had an urgency to get the upfront money he just might have been able to compromise far enough. How Peter could have been ultra-satisfied on the legitimacy of the item, & how the payment handling works without cash vans & bank transfer I don't know ? I don't live in the USA
Did you know that's the watch Jordan wore to the Hall of Fame ceremony? 🙄
That's also the watch Jordan wears while taking a shit. Did you know that?
This is one of those situations you get into and wonder how in the world you got involved and why it's happening.
He runs a pawn shop in Chicago. Im sure this is not the first time and it won't be the last.
Pete is a great proprietor, how he handles stuff is excellent.
Why thank you ;) (this is my secret account) cheers, Pete.
@@mendaciousreality8459bell end
@@mendaciousreality8459 Yeah this is super weird behavior, maybe weirder than the lady in question.
@@Jeromepkr what do you mean ? This is Peter who runs this account
This guy Pete is awesome. Watching everyday during my lunch hour.
Facts same here
Good to see that Ms.Kitty is keeping her eye on everything!
I've had parrots for forty years and also worked at an Avian rescue. The fact that your bird does not freak when you show him/her the net, shows that he really trusts you. ( Had he been wild caught, and thank god there is much less of that now, he /she might feel differently.)
Half of your customers are on something and most of them are looking to be on something.
Exactly 😂...I just bought a brand new cordless grinder ...Sawzall with charger and batteries for 50$ like new......you know damn well a crack head dropped them off 😂..
You can't fix crazy.
True, but you can bang it.
Well at least she apologized. Hopefully she gets help.
Much respect for this man. I would get so defeated dealing with these people everyday.
He is a saint. I've been contracting for 30 years and can't take dealing with the general public anymore.
I feel like I have to tell you.. thank you for creating these videos and this channel. It’s one of my favorites, I never get bored watching your videos. You seem like such a cool person and it definitely comes across in the videos and the way you treat your customers. I sure wish your shop was in my town, you just seem like the kind of person I’d be friends with. And I must say I love how you are so straight up and honest..you are definitely more fair than most shops like this. I want t start buying and selling because you make it look so fun. I wish your channel all the success.. y’all deserve it! Keep up the good work brother
When the video first started, I thought she was a friend of yours or something, the way she was interacting with all the guys, hugging, flirting, then she dropped the bomb on that gentleman, just plain strange! You handled it like a Pro Pete! Keep making these cool videos and we'll keep watching! God bless and keep you safe!👍
no hugging, unwanted touching and emphasizing the words piece of shit at the same time. she was trying to aggravate and provoke and they didn't bite since their not unconsciously triggered in their emotional pain body like her and she was amused they were completely dumb and oblivious to her bad behavior toward them so she continued
I can't believe anyone would pay 25 Grand for a watch.
Yeah you'd think watch prices would have dropped through the floor, I haven't worn one in 15 years because of cell phones.
wealth
Drop in the bucket for the ones who have the wealth.
25 Grand for a watch, That's just the start of the more pricier watches.
You can add a 0 to it too. And people will by that watch.
My apple watch literally replaced every watch I had wore for the last 5 years 😂
About 5 years ago I stopped at a garage sale. The whole back wall of the garage was stacked high with brand new Nikes in the box. The lady wanted $5 a pair, I asked why she had them. She said her son was a vendor rep for Nike and he had passed away so she was selling a lot of his things that had no sentimental value to her. I bought every pair in my size, 10 pair for $50. A few days later I was kicking myself for not buying all of them and reselling them online.
I'll bet you feel proud ripping an old lady off.
Well,ya DUH!!
That really scares me about Rolex watches. He paid 29k for it and he is only offered 12k to sell it. What that really says is that high end watches are hard to sell and don't retain value
Pawn shops only give you 20% of it worth no matter what it is! I know! I've been pawning stuff for 30 yrs or more! Pawnbroker is taking a chance he can sell it. Basing on minimum info. Because it's a fast deal. It's like dealing with a crack head 😂
A watch is a vanity piece anyway now. All phones have time on them. Most people dont actually need a watch.
@@johndef5075i do, mine actually does things though. When my jet ski filled with water on the bay here in hawaii it was my apple watch that let me call the fire department who sent someone out to get me.
We have a phone now
Not really, you just don't sell a watch at a pawn store/trading post if you want to get decent amount for it. There are many high-end watches that hold their value very well or even appreciate in value over time.
I laugh at every time a person says it could sell easily for $XXXX dollars. I that case, why go to Petes? why not sell yourself if they are so popular and people will snap it up. God, the patience Pete has, he is a saint
they want cash today. no fees
@@kmktruthserum9328 Correct, eBays fees are just crazy. I sold something last week for £250 and my payout from eBay was only £199.37p
Exactly
Maybe stolen?
@@kmktruthserum9328they still aren't going to get top dollar for their stuff selling it to him.
i love how you handle your customers ... all the videos i seen so far u really never hardly loose your cool. i will always tell u i think your content is better thin the pawn stars lol
Pawn Stars is stale and uninteresting because its so scripted - Petes store is genuine and it is a place I would want to visit.......and I love to watch
He also doesn't have to call in a expert every video sometimes multiple times a video haha
This man has some of the best people skills I ever seen. I really learn a lot from watching these videos. Thank you
At McDonald’s once we had a lady walk up to someone in the drive through and start attacking their car. He didn’t know her and was on meth. Acted just like that lady. Cops are free at that McDonald’s so they were always around thankfully
That guy has shoes that are worth more than his Rolex but he's there selling anything he can to make payroll. Lol. All these short term wealthy guys. Smh.
I promise, his bookie isn't on payroll😂
Pete handled that drunk woman very professionally. Put her in her place firmly but respectfully.
Yeah. Drunk or not, he still rips people off!!!!!
@@j2hustle685 what did he do?
loved the haggle on the rolex, keep up the good work. I worked in Pawn for a year with my grandmother as the manager as it was the best time of my life.
17:53 "Just don't poop, please."
You ought to make a t-shirt with that lol.
Rolex superfakes are so good now, it's almost impossible to distinguish. If the front passes, you need to take the back off and do a detailed check. CH has done dubious watch deals, and he's taking a huge risk offering genuine money for this.
I used to collect fakes. There’s two manufacturers based in China that produce near perfect fakes. They even replicate the look of the inside ( the movement ). Although they look perfect the movement eventually breaks.
I don’t bother anymore, ended up buying a 20 year old legit explorer II.
Bullshit, you can still tell you just need to know what to look for. Even the superfakes.
RAW!! As a long-term subscriber this is what I want to see! This is life right now!
Unedited videos as uncomfortable as it may get sometimes ! Fantastic work Pete you handled that very well!
The best advice I was ever given was from by Grandpa ! he said "Grandson no matter how desperate your life becomes whatever you do keep away from Pawn Shops " I miss you Grandpa ! ❤🙏
Lol... Maybe he didn't want you to find out the watch he gave you is a fake. 😂😜 Kidding.
Dude it's so rare to see an upstanding honest guy like you! It's especially ironic, since the typical view of pawn shops to me is, that they're always trying to get you.
They way you interact with strangers, even scammers, is so respectful. There is no doubt in my mind, the world would be a better place, if everyone was like you.
Pete was absolutely right about that Rolex because how many people will come into a pawnshop looking to spend $25-30k? If he ended up having to sell online its 20% so there is way too much risk giving the guy his asking price. The dude would get better money if he sold it himself but i get needing quick cash.
He can easily flip that watch for profit, but offering that dude 12K is ridiculous. Rolexes are some of the easiest luxury watches to flip. The luxury watch market is insane.
@@HenryPerez_royal_hpit was a blue dial sky dweller. That’s an easy 25K minimum
i dont see how anybody can pay 20 grand or more for a watch it just dont make no sense to me
@@freebird1ification wealth
@@HenryPerez_royal_hp have you ever flipped a rolex?
She was more than drunk,She was definitely on something by the way she was acting and her eyes, I think you handled it good,Probably a lot better than I would have lol
Even the shop cat stayed away from her!!
It's called mental illness. She is obviously a mentally ill person who was also drunk.
Stop assuming
considering her weird behaviour and the customer confirming he smells alcohol on her breath then its not a far reach to assume shes on soemthing else.@@_WF23
@@_WF23cry more
i love how he stood up for his customer, great job.
Imagine your boss has to sell his watch in order to pay you? Time to dust off the old resume....
I don’t understand the Rolex guy. I have knowledge in that industry and that just makes absolutely no sense for him to bring it to a pawn store. There are many other avenues he should know that he can take to sell that easily for what he wants. Something sketchy there… I don’t know.
Yeah thought the same there's boutiques and watch re sellers but why the local porn shop something not right ✌️
I was shocked he got an offer
And look how he's dressed!
fake rolex made in China probably;
short story, I used to work in Home Depot and I was in the store one night and a drunk customer called my coworker a very nasty word........for no reason.....when a few of my buddies found out we tracked him down and scorted him out of the building and told him never to return.......alcohol makes people mean or stupid !!!!!
It's "escorted".
Heard on some ancient episode of COPS, officer says of a man arrested for disorderly intox and fighting: "Probably a perfectly nice guy, just add alcohol: instant jerk".
I hope you gave him a stern look as well.
The people that just talk and talk while you are researching their stuff, stresses me out and makes me mistrust them. On the flip side those who don't speak at all (and maybe are holding their breath), I don't trust either. Lol. I would enjoy working in your store but not with dealing with negotiating prices with customers. I really enjoy your channel.
The calling him an asshole was a sort of ok comment, she was immediately retorting to his jokingly saying he stole it from a motorcycle rider.
But because she’s drunk she was already behaving bizarrely.
During the first few minutes, it appeared she might’ve been not with the chainsaw video man, and then she glommed onto his shoulder, I thought they were together after all.
When the motocross leathers thing ended , and the chainsaw man came back and says he had no idea who she was, things became more than clear.
When we are drunk, it’s safe to say, we are the only ones who think we are so clever or amusing.
It’s this kind of stuff that reminds me why I don’t like to drink anymore after all.
"She was hugging you"
"I know it gave me the Willies" 😂
This one was a bit saddening. Especially - for me - the guy with the Rolex. I've been in his shoes. Many people my age that I grew up with have. I'd dare say he's not selling his $25k Rolex to "make payroll." I can't help but get the feeling he's selling it because he has a drug problem. Like I once did, he hides it fairly well. I hope I'm wrong and if so I sincerely apologize. Whatever the case, I hope he gets back on the up and up. 🙏💜💯
you r a good soul my friend, indeed it seems like you r right......and its very sad .....some other people will laugh about it but a lot of people who know how hard a struggle is when you r addicted....feel exactly the same what you feel when you watch this kind of image
A good friend of mine is in this situtation. Hes been clean for 20 years but cant touch anything which would plunge him back under the thumb. He wears a top line Brietling as a reminder of what he would lose again if he fell .
I don’t know, he seemed pained to sell it rather than eager so he can get a fix.
You can hear in his voice the tons of weight he carries in his soul
you shouldn't do drugs then lmao, don't want a shitty life? don't make shitty decisions. its that easy.
I'm a real pawn shop thrift store hound and I just love your youtube channel.
Bro that lady creeped me out, she was out of it.
The woman looking for a good man in your store …shopping woman and happy day with drug’s on lol lol 😅😊😅😊😅😊
" I Got gym shoes worth more" LOLLL
Nah I’m sure he meaning like Jordan’s n shit
Love that line. Why brag about that kind of stuff? Just bring it in.
@@BeastSlayer14cause people lime lying about their status😂
I love the way you are with your pets. It really shows that you have a big heart. May you be blessed.
Man, I loved how that lady felt that guy up and gave him a big squeeze. I had to watch the entire interaction again....LMAO!!! To think you've seen everything....
Her name is Luni Tewns and she lives in every neighborhood across this land.
I worked at a thrift store as a kid and that started my life long love of used stuff, I would love to work in a store like yours, you must be really good at assessing stuff to get to that point!
Pete you're such a Pro dude. I honestly don't think i could handle dealing with some of the people you run into in that shop. You handled that weird lady perfectly.
The watch guy mentioned something in passing about having expensive Nike or other sneakers. From what I've heard they are like ticking time bombs, since the rubber deteriorates over the years leading to cracks and that would probably affect value downward. He should probably sell before they start falling apart.
Sounds like he should stop buying such expensive stuff unless he can afford it.
I actually liked the guy with the Rolex. Even though you weren't close to his bottom dollar he was still respectful and ended on a good note. I can't get enough of your videos. You are the definition of a professional at your job/business owner. Thank you for the content.
Guy knew his Rolexs
I to enjoyed there encounter very respectful didn’t get mad at the counter offer cuz he knew the business side of it
The Rolex owner was a sad case. He's out there trying to make payroll as best he can.
@@Martin-sp4zfmans out there earning his bread, what’s so bad about that ?
This guy is so full of BS.
Thank you guys, good job. She is over stepping her boundaries you guys handled well
Bless your soul. You deal with some weird people, and some just hang out. I couldn't handle people lingering around.
Pete, your interaction with Ruby at the end made me smile. Thanks, I really needed that.
You handled that well. At least she had the decency to apologize and leave. Loved the Nike's!
love watching your clips and all the entertainment it brings! love your authenticity, humility and graciousness to your customers and youtube watchers!
He wanted 18.5k for a watch? I'd rather buy a car at that price. He needs the money for payroll? C'mon, stay away from these characters. Have him go to a jewelry store and sell it there. Pete, your store is not the Ritz Carlton, stay away from buying watches at that price, unless you're a multi millionaire.
As for the lady, do you remember the movie, " One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"? They're all coming to your store, what a spectacle!
Yeah its kinda weird that a baller dude that got shoes worth more then his 29k watch and tons of "peanuts" like laptops etc needs to go to a pawnshop that clearly is made for a different clientel (no offense peter) to make ends meet...something doesnt add up...
Great vid Peter, love seeing all of these characters that come into the shop!
I have that exact watch, bought it from a Rolex Authorized Dealer pre covid. I'd be very careful about buying used, there are fakes now that are almost indistinguishable.
OMG, where have you been, my whole UA-cam life!!! If you had a show on TV, I'd watch it religiously!! It's a good thing you're on UA-cam!!!
I wish when people brought in watches we could get a close up of it
Thanks for taking time to talk to me on phone and looking up prices on the black and blue Nike for me love the show
I love your videos. Your a true genuine person. With great service and manners ❤
Just discovered your videos your expertise and attitude are top notch! You also go out of your way to educate these people on these products. Love it!
Like a thousand people haven't said this already. Stay safe.
now one thousand and one have said it kick rocks son@@hellboundrubber4448
There’s no way he paid 29k he probably paid his asking price and is now looking to get it back, unless he bought into the hype of the clown market of 2020 when everything from stocks to video games were going through the roof and now he realized his “investment” is worth much less than he paid.
It's always funny to hear people tell someone else how much money they could make and how easy it would be. If so why not do it yourself?
"Mind if I vape in here?" - yep I do, gopnik.
This reminds me of why I don’t go to bars to drink… she tried to bring the bar to the trading post
The old lush was sipping on Grandpa’s cough medicine again… 😂😮😅
Pete! Love your content. 100% my new favorite UA-camr. Keep up the good and honest work. May God Bless you and your Business and stay safe.
The amount of money people are willing to lose just to avoid 5 minutes of listing the product online themselves is unreal. At least consign it.
Not to mention those nikes what people spend on a pair of tennis shoes when there made for 5 dollars tops
Then dealing with anticipation, packaging, shipping, fees, and possible returns... yeah I wonder why people use pawn shops. It's no hassle instant cash my guy.
A woman being held responsible for her actions? Is that even legal these days?
I think I got more annoyed with the watch guy😜 Love your videos. Did you notice Honey ran behind the girl. Never slowed down. Animals know.
Sky Dweller is fairly common, very nice either way.. 29k though??? Lol retail new is $15,650.00
lol good luck buying one at retail. There is a reason these watches go for $20k+ on sites like chrono24.
The beginning is like watching a movie directed by the guy who did MASH the motion picture. Dueling conversations overlapping one another😂
The reaction on your face when she took the racing gear from him hahaha killed me you was baffled 😂😂
She certainly was a little odd. Have to give the Rolex guy his due if in fact he was selling to make his payroll. Have to take care of the people who make you money. Ruby was very calm when you put the net over her. A sure sign of an animal who trust someone is not going to hurt them. 👍🇨🇦
Welcome to Crystal Meth Lake...
I wish everyone trading store had a peter in it this guy is awsome so calm and treats people with respect
Unrelated to this theme, my wife and I went to Pictured Rocks and Copper Harbor on our way to Isle Royale National Park last year. Love the shirt, love the content, love the channel. Thank you!
If the guy knows how to get a better price for the watch. Why doesn’t he sell it himself?
Who would spend 30k on a watch…. even if I was rich I wouldn’t buy a watch like that
You never will be
Oh shit look at this clever fella….🤦♂️😂🤡
@@Joe-ny8xq I don't get it either. But there is a huge market for them it seems.
You're very astute and a good business owner. Too many people nowadays don't notice, don't want to get involved.

the entire fake designer outfit told me everything I needed to know. Anyone with that much money is not ever thinking about stepping foot in a pawn shop lmao
You can’t make this up 😂
