Agreed. It's also amusing to watch them get beaten down and breaking for about 30% the value of what they just asked for, and then telling the cameras they are happy about it.I love when people immediately ask for what their item has been appraised for.
I can never watch this show and not feel like they are taking advantage of old people who are collectors. All these people need to do is google and search ebay and get a rough idea that they are not getting half of what their stuff is worth.
Pawn Stars at least the people are coming in to get ripped off. With Antique roadshow they are telling people an honest appraisal. But these guys are just trying to take advantage of people's ignorance.
