Ok can you put romanian subtitles now
And here we have the creator of the ninja turtles verifying that it’s legit along with his signature
Rick- it’s still a big gamble and I’m already losing here
@fhê C.S they are in vegas. its a whole thing most norml ppl like
How about 30K it can still go to 20K!
LOL

hahaaha
Under-rated comment 😂
looool
You know things are serious when Rick calls in The Undertaker to appraise a comic book
His brother 😂

Lmao I was thinking the same
The American Badass 🏍😎💪
I just loved it when he said "if you are going to get 20k how about 30k?" . It was pretty dumb but finally Rick getting a taste of his own medicine
yup thats why this show is so fake.
Know whats funny? That comic's price has increased quite a bit in the last five years. It is worth more than $30,000 now.
Simbly chumma 🤣
Internet says this at 9.4 goes for 30k now
not really what rick deserves, going to a pawn shop in the first place you're expecting an instant lowball.
Mr Eastman is so humble, honestly saying he doesn’t know what it’s worth, he wasn’t cocky saying it’s worth over $100,000. I love his work!
Eastman should be be like dude, what are you doing???
I love how rick will use the "I'm a business man, not a gambler" meanwhile in some other episodes he's like "i'm taking a risk, i'm taking a gamble here" lol
😂😃
💯💯😂🤣😂
A 9.8 sold by Heritage Auctions in 2019 for $90,000, but that includes their 20% buyer's premium. So probably about $72,000. Others in similar condition ranged from $52,000-66,000, but still in a little better shape than the one in the video. One in slightly lesser grade sold in 2020 for $45,600. None of those, however, were autographed. That said, an autographed 9.2 sold for $39,600 this past January.
The appraiser was low-balling the seller...possibly because Rick Harrison doesn't like to sell comic-books. A 6.5 of the same comic book is priced at 15 to 20K. The 9.8 sells for around 100K. TMNT stuff is hot and only likely to continue going up in value.
@brendenconner9686 phantom wolf zero 0:20
I would attach this video on the selling ad. Seriously... Kevin Eastman himself recognized this comic :)) It's some kind of holly comic now :))
A 9.8 is LEAGUES above a 9.4 in the collectors market and the price goes with it.
Just reinforces my theory that %80 of their "appraisals", are 1/3 of the actual value. Also reinforces the practice of getting the item appraised before going in.
When they called a comic expert in I definitely didn’t expect to see the lovechild of Undertaker & Scott Steiner with a British accent walk into the shop...
Lol so accurate.
With 50 pound weights on each hand
Appraiser: “Alright retail value is 11,000 dollars”
Seller: “Ok so how about you give me 30,000?”
Also seller "give me 30,000 and then you can sell it for maybe 20,000"
give me 30k and you only take a 19k loss
@@jasonsierchio1167 that book should be way more but since he hated that book obviously it a low ball appraisal
@@jasonsierchio1167 rofl
Mr Eastman is the reason why our Childhood videogames were awesome
I'm so glad that he walked away!!
I know, ebay price trippled. Way less than 3000 copies now.
As a comic fan, a Teenager Mutant Ninja Turtles
fan. This was amazing to watch.
The price has jumped now :0
"Lemme call a buddy of mine who knows The Turtles 🐢 very well"
Mitch McConnell comes in.
9.6 of this book today is worth $76K. And this one is signed and verified on the show is probably worth a lot more than that!
Yeah that comic expert didn't know jack!
"How about 30k? You can then sell it for 20k" lol that cracked me up.
dumbest comment on this show ever from a seller lol
"The Brain" got too much turtle in his head, that's why!
One of the few smart sellers I've seen on this show. Good for him!
He didn't got robbed.
Yeah it’s worth 11k so I’ll ask for 30k at the pawn shop...yeah he’s real wise.
Phet Tumbling -$8,000 was a really fair offer.
It’s a pawn shop, for God’s sake.
@@jjlloyd8017 That is not being smart though. The appraisal was at 11k he went and asked way over that several times and went as low as 15k. When confronted with such a low offer lowball appraisal the only smart move was not to keep bargaining and walk away. For all we know even at the 15k he asked it was a bad deal. Were he smart he should have had it graded before going to try and sell it.
Definitely doesn’t happen often.
I did some research on this comic and found it around the same price that is was appraised at on this show however it was without the autograph. Probably around 15 to 20k is accurate with the autograph. I read that the original sketch for the photo on the cover of the comic sold at auction for about 70k which is why I think the seller was asking 60k because he mistook the sketch price for the price of the comic book.
Signatures often reduce the value of the book regardless of authenticity. It's still considered altered and damaged. Signatures only help authenticate things that are mass produced that can't be pinned down to the person. IE there are a million fender strats, so to have one signed says it was owned by that person. Which makes it rare because not all strats were owned by that person. The comic itself is inherently rare so the signature isn't necessary. You're not buying it because of the autograph you're buying it because of the rarity of the book, and the signature is technically damaging the rarity. The smarter thing to do is get a picture with the Author or Artists and have them sign your picture, or just have them sign a reprint or a postcard.
What? signed 9.8s exist, which if you know comics, means it’s perfect.
Also, Guitar players sign guitars that aren’t theirs. A vintage Strat signed by Leo Fender is worth way more than an identical unsigned one.
The smart thing to do is get something signed with a CGC witness. A signature by the creator will make an item more valuable 99.9% of the time.
The value of this comic book varies greatly - price guides put a 6.5 of the same comic at 15K. Don't know where the appraiser got his numbers but he was way low for a comic that is likely to increase in value.
Worthless negotiation. Sell it online to the highest bidder.
Wasn't really worthless tbh, he had it graded and appraised on video, and an offer to start at all in one
ungraded its hard to get full price for it, and grading costs a fortune
$50 is a fortune? 😂
Luis Rios a small fortune lol
A 9.6 signed sold on 6-26-20 for $25k on eBay
Finally they didnt bring out the weird IPad holding fraud guy that thinks he knows everything about signatures .
I wanna break that ipad
I mean Steve grad might have been a fraud in his college history but he obviously knows stuff working for bgs and psa for decades
Good one Joker
Joker Oh no God Almighty that guy is a legit bigtime scammer.
hi friend i hope u can visit my channel i want to be ur friend 😊
Chumlee's face at the end 😂😂😂 He really wants that book
Chum was on point! 2 years later $$$$$$ :)
When an “expert” comes through it’s almost always the same story. It be like, “wow this is extremely rare, this is insane, howd you acquire this?, but wait it only worth $200” 🤣☠️ then Rick offers $20 for it.
Seriously, it happens every freaking time. I think their “experts” are in on helping them lowball the customers
$11K isn’t $200 so your analogy is way off. I’ve watched this show for a long time and I’ve never, and I mean never, seen Rick offer someone $20 when it was worth $200. 50% is usually the starting price and that’s just good business. Those pair of Nikes you bought at the store for $100. Sorry but it costs them about $6 to make and wholesales for around $20.
haha so true
Does it really “be like” that?
Calls in an expert which turns out to be Steve Grad and he doesn't feel comfortable with the signature.
Appraises it at......$750.
Rick offers $300
Kevin Eastman is such a legendary comic book artist ever. I always loved the story of how the TMNT came to be and YES this was completely true of Kevin and Peter. The guy was crazy though to think that comic would go 60 thousand, I mean Kevin is a legend, but the legend he and Peter wanted to be was Jack Kirby and Stan Lee. 11,000 definitely worth the comic indeed.
I remember when this was $300 at local conventions and my parents said no and it was "too expensive".
The second expert looks like he wants to fight the guy. "So, what've we got here" 👏👏
You know Rick's excited when he called in a 2nd expert.
Always cool when they bring in the person whos object it is or something they signed. Its a bonus surprise all the time. Awesome story of how the Turtles started too. Was fun to watch. Great video
First time I've seen that
Eastman is a legend........the fact that my childhood came from a joke is crazy.......TURTLE POWER!!!
“I’m a businessman not a gambler” nice sales talk i will use that. Hehe
haha
How did you get Kevin Eastman over so fast? He said it was signed by Kevin, your like "let's ask him" then Kevin Eastman walks in
Because the show is set up beforehand lol
This is an insult to the teenage mutant ninja turtles comic book community
Yeah that's kinda the thing he's not running a comic shop he's not running a tmnt shop he's running a pawn shop
I mean the price is not that far off. Online sales databases show a graded and signed 9.4 went most recently for 12,500.
@@davescookingshow it was a pez joke
You mean the Pez Dispenser community? Haha
The play on this quote never, ever gets old xD ...
He could probably sell it on eBay and get 30 grand. The smartest thing he did was walk out of there.
Easy
Rick: " Let me call a guy "
Me: *sight* not that stupid fake autograph guy again
*Ralph Macchio walks in*
Me: :O
1:10 the guy's face lights up when Kevin Eastman walks in. Yeah I'd probably do the same. Lol
That comic book expert reminds me of The Undertaker!
Comic book expert ( 2nd guy ) looks like The Undertaker.
To me he looks more like Scott Steiner
Nah more untertaker to me
Nah he looks like the undertaker
hi friend i hope u can visit my channel i want to be ur friend 😊
@@cesarestrada3619 he looks like a mix of both.
The owner of this comic book, should've had the creator and the appraiser there at the same time when negotiations were on the table.
Chumlee's face says it all at the end... hes thinking in his head "even I ain't as stupid as this dude.."
The expert looks like the undertaker
Rick: I got a guy that knows everything about the ninja turtles
Shredder walks in. Says comic is worthless
better yet, shreds the comic
Am I the only one who feels like rick calls the experts and says hey value this item 2-10k under...
I've always thought that
They pay these appraisers of course they have to give them the 25% below market appraisal.
Of course he does that that’s why he’s asking them what they want for it first tells the expert to lowball it
Kevin Eastman! That is super cool. Wish he had talked about the production of that first issue.
Most shipped were destroyed because it was a bigger comic. Mirage Studios started to make them normal comic size for shipping after this. So less way less 3000 in exist $$$$
That clap though at 3:04 Ahahahah
I bet rick's gonna contact his buddy oroku saki for this.
*HAMATO YOSHI!*
Or maybe usaki yojimbo
hi friend i hope u can visit my channel i want to be ur friend 😊
If I had that copy of the original TMNT comic, I would never, ever, EVER, try to sale it. 🤓👍
On ebay they are gold now 🤣$$$$
Rick: Let me call in The Undertaker to price this thing..
1:42 little brother watching older brother doing older brother thingies
Steve goes BOOM! Love it!
As a humongous ninja turtle fan I geeked out so badly in this video!
turtles rule
Guy nearly walked off without it. Are you sure you own it buddy 😁
It would be hard for me to sell that. It's such a beautiful comic
Can you do 30?? It’s valued at 20 .. think this guy should get his college money back
This book was bigger height and length than other comic books. I remember when this book came by UPS to the comic shop. My boss gave some away as a thank you to customers because some of them came damaged 😨 So 3000 copies, USA distribution only and 20% of them came pre-damaged. Yeah, rare!!! 2nd printing was about the same. The cover had 2nd printed on the inside. Wish I kept some ☹
Rick stores his experts in the basement winter soldier style
Rick's bald head, Chumley and comment section is best part of the show
I remember that in some versions, Splinter was a rat who became human-like, and in others, he was a human who became rat-like.
hi friend i hope u can visit my channel i want to be ur friend 😊
Isn’t that the difference between the original story and the one used in the animated series?
In the comic book he's just a rat
@@smoothALOE I know in the animated series Splinter was a human and a friend of Shredder. In the first movies IIRC he was a rat who would practice martial arts in the sewer, before he even mutated lol.
@@EGarrett01 I’ve read the original comics. He was a rat that mutated into a human rat. They changed the story for the animated series. The story in the first film is like it was in the comic book. There are still other differences, though.
Smart man. Did the right thing. You can see Rick wanted it.
That British dude def ended up buying it for 15 when he went to get it pressed 😂
Turtle head. LOL
The seller: would you consider 30 grand? He said it could be worth 20 grand...oh nevermind
This is an insult to the tmnt first print first edition community
2 people were triggered
hi friend i hope u can visit my channel i want to be ur friend 😊
What makes you say that? 12000 is an accurate price for a graded and signed 9.4 in 2020 and 11k was probably accurate when this was shot.
@eshel ahrak looks like someone is DESPERATE to get monetized 😂
hahaha-HA!!!
The undertaker chockslammed you dreams!!!
“Well would you take 30k for it? You might be able to sell it for 20?”
😂😂☠️
It's valued currently at $11k. A press can cost between $20-$25. CGC charges if you have a subscription about $50. I would do the less than $100 investment and get that $20k. And tbh I don't think he'll ever get 20k for that book
A 9.8 is worth around $20,000, I assume signed doesn't change much for the comic itself. But yeah he won't get much more than 12k for it no matter what. A 9.8 that's been "pressed" isn't' the same as a 9.8 that's a natural 9.6 or 9.8
@@LordRayken where are u getting that a 9.8 first print is 20k because a first print 9.8 just sold for almost 80k or best offer on the 10th
@@hiddenoni5168 "sold for almost 80k or best offer". that's literally meaningless, was the best offer 79k or was it a nickle?

1:57 and then Eastman and Laird put their bongs away
That guy is DREAMING if he thinks he can sell that comic for $60 k.
Who knew The Undertaker was such a fan of comic books!? 😮😂
Rick: I dont know the value of this book, let me call in my buddy who is a fictional martial arts character straight out of a comic book. He will know more about this then I do.
Dont go to a pawn shop asking for asking price lol
He asked for 10k over the price originally...the man is a fool.
This is not your ordinary pawn shop.He got exposure and also had it authenticated + he didnt sell.If the pawn shop wanted to pay what it was valued at then you know it certainly has the chance to go for 20k +.
Seller to Rick: "Would you go 30 for the chance it may go for 20"? LOL
1992 runnin home off the bus.
Homework later
I'm gonna miss the turtles
-Its worth 11k.
(seller) -No! It´s worth 50k, but i want 60k.
Shredder and I got along famously..
That is such a best dealing and nice ended that this puppy has ever seen
Man said give me 30k and maybe u can get 20k out of it🤣🤣💀
Love comics. Love Rebecca a little more. So this video just doesn’t do the job.
ok coomer
Simp
Where Rebecca is a book expert these kinda books are way out of her field
Virgin
@ftwbk gloves can acctually damage the books more. Clean hands is the best. She has a video on her channel explaining why most book experts dont use gloves and gives comparisons and examples of what can happen when using gloves.
Imagine if the second guy comes in and says this is not authentic signature lmao
In Sept. 2021 one of these sold for around $40k. It was not autographed and it was graded at same level.
Smart man. I was yelling dont sell it...lol
4:58 his face 😂
I would have done anything to meet Kevin Eastman. One of my idol's
i met him at supanova comic con and gaming Melbourne 2020 here in Australia and got a 8 bit shredder funko pop signed and asked him to put the famous quote cowabunga and he also sketched a shredder head on the window also i still have it with the coa and i am not selling it at all since it is my favorite signed figure of all time
I like this appraisal guy. Good character to bring in
Always call Rebecca! For everything!
keep it longer!
I've browsed pawn shops all my life and I've never seen any pawn shop worker ever ask a customer how much they want for an item.
When i was younger and poorer i pawned stuff (with the intention of paying off the loan) and almost always got asked how much i wanted, unless its just precious metals (i.e. gold and silver that just has a set market rate)
The undertaker🤣🤣🤣
how nice the undertaker found a new job as a comics expert
Rick: How much you want?
Seller: I heard someone sold it for 100 million
Rick: 😑
Occasionally smart sellers walk into the pawn shop - that was one of them
"but it's signed..." "yeah? just-a-sec, lemme go get him"
Rick makes sure the experts finesse the seller hahaha
Let me call a buddy of mine who specializes in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics.
Leonardo walks in
neva thought the undertaker would get into comics
Right.
When the Undertaker was the expert
Chumlee looks great. Taking care of himself!
He’s at least 325 and not fit at all. Heart attack waiting to happen
The great thing about this scene is that the comic expert actually puts on gloves just getting NEAR the product he’s estimating grade on. There are so many “expert” morons on this show that will pick up a grade 6-8 with their bare hands and open up the pages, which decreases the value of the item in and of itself.
It's funny how Eastman and Laird were joking around one day and then there joke idea became a huge property that is still beloved today
*This guy is now my official favorite expert ever...*
The big guy looks like the phenom Undertaker..
“Sorry your friends with rick”
lol
Update: it sold for $290,000 at auction 6 months ago..............Just kidding
Those extreme conditions have exponential price gaps.
