The holidays came early in this festive episode as Joe, Maureen, Danny, and Tom break down their visit to an elite vintage Christmas show. We're talking $22,000 snowmen, bottle brush trees, mirrored ornaments, and a tree-spinning Regina music box that blew their minds.
They also get serious with a cautionary tale about a client who may have been scammed out of four tackle boxes of gold and Native American jewelry—no contract, no receipts, and lots of regret.
From Civil War memorabilia and political buttons to queer history and auction ethics, this episode is packed with emotion, education, and plenty of laughs.
