Django and Dresses

Norwood Young (Musician) pays a visit to Yossi while attempting to get him to buy this magnificent knife used by Jaime Foxx in the recent box-office hit: Django. Yossi caves regardless of the price, how can you not?! After, Yossi visits a beautiful home to view the one and only dress worn by Kim Novack in the movie classic: Vertigo. The dress was designed by the famous Edith Head and gathers an enormous price estimate of… wait for it… OVER $100,000!!!!!! Phew! The end of this episode brings out the most exciting piece, in my opinion. A man brings in a 450 year old Bhudda statue. The statue is of Gilt Bronze and was made in the 16th century!! That's an old Bhudda! Not to mention, this amazing statue was used in the movies: Maltese Falcon and Blood Bath… oh yeah AND it was part of the Ming Dynasty in China. Now that's art! Although, as amazing as it is, Yossi can't seem to agree on a price.

Two Kings and A Princess

Today the action at Beverly Hills Pawn is out of this world. A Star Trek treasure sends Yossi and his team into uncharted territory, with big bucks at stake for a one-of-a-kind piece of Captain Kirk's wardrobe. In the back office, Cory pushes her boss to boldly go where he has never been before -- behind a computer to send his own e mail for the very first time. A vintage purse made of pure gold lures a real princess into the store, and the team takes a trip to an historic hilltop home to bid on a piano that once belonged to a King -- none other than Elvis Presley. Later, Yossi shows his soft side when the partner of a famous producer brings in a treasured Victorian necklace to raise money for charity, and living legend Larry King drops by looking for an extra-special anniversary gift. It's just another 'average' day, at the most exclusive pawn shop on the planet.
