00:10Welcome to What's in the Box.
00:12In Sade and Maureen's box of old things are silverware, old coins, gold jewellery.
00:18Well, they got the real deal.
00:21Dickinson's Real Deal, brought to you by Vintage Cash Cow.
00:45Hello and welcome to the show. I'm David Dickinson, the Duke, and this is The Real Deal.
00:51Now, today, the show is coming to you from the Dearborn in Burton-on-Tread.
00:56I've got a feeling it's going to be a crackerjack of a show today.
01:01Coming up...
01:01I'd like to see what you're going to offer.
01:03I thought you were going to say you'd like to see the back of it.
01:06It's a hard day at the office.
01:08A little bit more.
01:09Oh, I knew you were going to say that!
01:11For all our dealers.
01:13Who have you got in mind for something like this?
01:15Well, I haven't, to be honest with you.
01:17And when things are this hard...
01:20Is that all?
01:21Oh, do you know...
01:23It's for my grandson.
01:24Oh, dear.
01:26It can all get a little too much.
01:28I tell you what, you've had him over, haven't you?
01:31Get that money and get out of here.
01:32Cheers, David. Thank you very much.
01:35Let's get it on.
01:36Let's do The Real Deal.
01:42I tell you what, The Deer Barn's a great place to come if you've got kids.
01:49Oh, come on, guys.
01:51Oh, my God!
01:53Oh!
01:54I said kids.
01:57Get your skates on, Faye.
01:59We're open for business.
02:02Is it something you might want to sell, that's right?
02:04And there's already loads to see.
02:06I like that. It's really pretty.
02:08Charming, lovely little things.
02:11So, Mark, first down the slide, first chance to buy.
02:15Fancy a quick gold deal?
02:16I'm ready for you, guys.
02:18Bring it down.
02:19Bring it on.
02:21Super.
02:21Mary, hoping for a lot?
02:23Well, yes.
02:25Quite a bit, I think.
02:27How much?
02:28Quite a bit.
02:29Maybe a three and a half.
02:30Three and a half thousand.
02:32Sound about right, Mark?
02:33You never know.
02:35I might be in a generous mood, shall I say today,
02:38that I will go along and play if it's the right way.
02:41Maybe stick to the decaf next time, Mark.
02:46Come on, Mary.
02:48You've brought me in a lot of gold.
02:49Tell me all about it.
02:50Well, I've inherited it and worked hard
02:54and liked the jewellery shops and spent my money.
02:59So you've loved going around the jewellery shops?
03:01Oh, I love it.
03:02So what's your favourite thing to buy?
03:05Pearls.
03:06You like pearls?
03:07Yes, pearls.
03:09Do you want to know the secret of pearls?
03:11A little secret?
03:12Yes.
03:13The pearls, if they're what we call natural pearls,
03:17Yes.
03:17Not cultured, are one of the hottest properties
03:20on the market at the moment
03:22because they are really rare.
03:24But what we have here, there's some pearls,
03:26but they're cultured pearls,
03:27so they're grown by man.
03:29But if you can get the natural pearls,
03:31they're the ones everybody wants.
03:33Have you got some in your pocket for me?
03:34No, but I've got some at home.
03:36Real natural ones?
03:37Yes.
03:38Oh, we'll have to have a talk later.
03:39Don't tell the boss.
03:41Lovely.
03:42So we've got here.
03:44All of this has been purchased
03:46and some bits given, correct?
03:48Yeah, well, mainly I've bought it myself, you know.
03:52And what's your favourite piece in amongst this lot?
03:55I think this one.
03:56The bracelet?
03:57Yes.
03:57So it's kind of like a leaf design, isn't it?
03:59Yes, it's like diamonds.
04:01And it's not too heavy, it's quite nice to wear?
04:03It is, it is, yes.
04:04So why are you selling it then?
04:08Well, I've been ill.
04:09Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
04:10Yes, and I'm going to have a holiday.
04:13It's a lovely collection.
04:15It's all got a nice little value.
04:17I'm going to get some money on that table
04:18and we're going to have a deal.
04:20OK.
04:21Let's go.
04:22Yes.
04:23You like the red ones, don't you, the 50s?
04:25You're a 50s lady, I can see it.
04:27I look, yes.
04:28Right, here we go.
04:29Thank you, Mum.
04:30Oh, never a problem, never a problem.
04:33Here we go.
04:34Let's count the money out.
04:35Let's get it on the table.
04:3650, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950, 1
04:55,000 pounds.
04:56Don't stop.
04:57Keep the smile going.
04:58I'm going to give you more.
04:5950, 1,100, 1150, 1,200, 1250, 1,300, 1350, 1,400, 1450, 1,500, 1550, 1,600, 1650, 1
05:12,700, 1750, 1,800, 1850, 1,900, 1950, 2,000.
05:18Still not enough.
05:19It's still not enough.
05:2351, 2100, 2150, 22, 2250, 23.
05:2923.50, 24, 24.50, 2,500 pounds.
05:36And do you know what, Mary?
05:37I think you're an absolutely beautiful, lovely lady, and I'm going to give you 2,600 pounds on the table.
05:46How do you feel?
05:49A bit more.
05:51I knew you were going to say that.
05:53Oh, yeah.
05:54You ladies always want a little bit more, don't you?
05:56Please.
05:56Just like my wife, just a little bit more.
05:572,600, 2,650, don't care about the money, 2,700, I want you to have a fabulous holiday.
06:052,700.
06:072,700 pounds.
06:10I think that's a very good deal, Mark.
06:13Give me a hand, Mary.
06:14We've got a deal.
06:15Thank you so much.
06:18I've got the real deal.
06:20I've got 2,700, and I've got the real deal.
06:25I'm off on my holidays.
06:28Mary, you're an absolute fabulous lady.
06:30Have a great holiday, and I wish you only the very best in life.
06:34What a lovely deal to get us going.
06:38Most of us at some point have collected things.
06:41To be honest, I know nothing about stamps.
06:42But over the years, you kind of lose interest.
06:45They're not something the kids are going to use.
06:47The kids are grabbing off.
06:48Can I say I still have my teddy bear?
06:50Well, some of us lose interest.
06:53They're just in a cupboard.
06:54You never get them out, so we just thought we'd come and see if they're worth any money.
06:58You never know, you might be sitting on a small fortune.
07:01Because you've got a lot more at home.
07:03If you do well with this lot today, you can always, next time we're in the area, bring
07:06some more, can't you?
07:07Gary's brought along his lifetime collection of matchboxes.
07:11I mean, I would love to put them on the show, 20 to 30 quid.
07:15You can see what the dealer offers, and if you don't like it, if it goes to auction,
07:19it's got a world-life web, you'll see what happens.
07:22So, what's the story with you and the matches then, Gary?
07:25My aunt and uncle used to collect them all over the world.
07:28I've picked them up from various places, myself, auctions, car boots, and I thought,
07:34now's the time.
07:35I'll bring them down, see if they're interested, and see where we can go from there.
07:38I've got a load of matches.
07:40I'm going to see if I can strike a deal.
07:44I'm on fire.
07:46Oh, dear.
07:48Shall we move on?
07:52What have you brought along today?
07:54I have brought you 474 matchbooks and boxes.
07:58It's from all around the world.
07:59So, is this 474 holidays you've had?
08:02No, no, it was my uncle and auntie, they used to travel the world.
08:07I've picked them up at auctions, car boots, you name it.
08:10I've had them for about 10 years on and off.
08:13There's some real old ones in there, and I just thought, it's time to get rid of them.
08:17I mean, back in the day, everybody used to smoke, didn't they?
08:21And everybody would promote their businesses, pubs, hotels, and everybody would be giving
08:27them a complimentary.
08:28And there was a big market.
08:30People used to collect them all the time.
08:31Oh, yeah.
08:32So, can you remember the first one that you acquired?
08:35I can't remember the first one, but there's some really nice ones in there.
08:39Indianapolis Race Circuit in America.
08:41There's a lot of branded ones, a lot of advertising ones.
08:44There's a lot of nice matches.
08:46And if I was to buy them, what would you do with the money?
08:49Buy myself a new lighter, because I'm fed up of all these matches.
08:54No, no, no, I would treat the other half to a nice meal.
08:57So, you were expecting a reasonable amount of money for these?
08:59Oh, yeah, a nice meal, and, you know, if it goes past my expectations, you know, a nice
09:04weekend away.
09:05Ooh, woof.
09:06Well, I'm not sure I'm going to even meet your expectations, in all fairness, but I've
09:13got to start somewhere.
09:14I'm going to put a fiver down.
09:16Is that the fiver for the case?
09:19Does the case have a lid?
09:21Yeah, it has a lid, yeah.
09:25A tenner.
09:27Oh, I'm overcome.
09:29I thought we'd be able to strike a deal at a tenner.
09:31Yeah, yeah, strike a deal, yeah.
09:33I tell you what, let's get another opinion.
09:35I can't wait to hear what Davey's got to say about this lot.
09:38Well, this has been this gentleman's passion.
09:42How many years?
09:43I've been sort of saving them for about the last ten years.
09:46OK.
09:47So, ten years, this driving, surging passion to collect these matchboxes.
09:54We've got £20 to £40.
09:57Now, Faye buys most things.
10:00I will have a go at most things, yes.
10:02Nice family business.
10:03Who have you got in mind for something like this?
10:06Well, I haven't, to be honest with you.
10:10That's why there's only £10 on the table, David.
10:13I don't know what I will do with them.
10:15Would you put any more?
10:17I'd take a gamble.
10:18Another tenner?
10:19I'll go another tenner, but that is me out at that.
10:22Right, I'm going to say,
10:24having seen this generous offer from a very shrewd dealer,
10:28I think that's enough speculation at £20.
10:31I think there probably is a profit to the right person,
10:34but if you go to the auction, can you get more?
10:38It's how long is a piece of string?
10:40Maybe.
10:41But I'm going to say it's a difficult call.
10:44If it was me, I think I'd be thinking,
10:47well, I've had my fun, I've put this collection together,
10:50that's been my enjoyment,
10:51I'll now take my...
10:53£20.
10:54£20, and I'd get down to the pub.
10:57I think you'll make a profit.
10:58I think there's someone out there that will suddenly say,
11:00oh, I want those.
11:02But on the day, I'd take the cash.
11:05I don't want to put any more money on the table.
11:08You might want to take a gamble, take them to auction,
11:12or you could go to the pub,
11:15buy yourself a pint and start collecting beer mats.
11:18Yeah, yeah, I've got a load of beer mats at the time.
11:21So I don't want any more money about it.
11:24What are you going to do?
11:25Auction it is.
11:26Auction it is.
11:26Because these are worldwide from all over the world,
11:30and there's somebody out there that will want these.
11:33I hope you're right.
11:34I cannot wait to see what happens at auction.
11:37I think I am right.
11:38I think, yeah.
11:39But thank you for bringing them to...
11:40No worries at all.
11:42Wonderful, thank you.
11:44What do you think they're worth then, Gary?
11:46I think they'll make the best part of £100, if not more.
11:48Well, I love your confidence.
11:52Stick me neck out.
11:54I've got a long neck.
11:55If there is just that one box that somebody's after
11:58and they go really well,
12:00well, that's just egg on my face, isn't it?
12:03We're 130, 140.
12:05Fortunately for you, Faye,
12:06auctioneer Richard Winterton fancies the chances.
12:09When the matchboxes came in,
12:11the team were going matchboxes,
12:13but there's a collector out there for everything.
12:16And we've got numerous bids already.
12:19People watching it, these are going to sell.
12:21Sounds promising, Gary.
12:23Oh, I'm always excited.
12:25I love auctions.
12:26I've been to a fair few auctions before.
12:29Hopefully the matchboxes will do really well.
12:34Well, the reserve is set at £20.
12:36If it doesn't make the £20,
12:38obviously you take them home.
12:40But, I mean, it seems ridiculous
12:42for the collection where someone has loved it
12:44and enjoyed it
12:45and gone out and put this collection together
12:48only £20.
12:50Let's see what happens.
12:51It's coming up over there, Gary.
12:53Bit of interest online we have as well.
12:55We have two, we have four, we have six,
12:57we have eight, we have ten, we have 15.
12:59£15 a bid, £20 a bid, £25 a bid,
13:02£25 a bid, £25 a bid, £25 a bid at £25.
13:05I'd have liked or thought more.
13:07£25.
13:08£25 all in £25.
13:10We are selling it.
13:11£30.
13:12£30 a bid.
13:13Just in time, £30.
13:14£30 on the internet at £30.
13:16£30 a bid, all done and sold.
13:19£30.
13:21£30 sold.
13:22OK, well, the gaveler's gone down.
13:24We have the commission to take off,
13:26the dreaded commission.
13:28I make that about £24.
13:30£24, what are you going to do with it?
13:32Um, probably going to have half a meal.
13:35OK, half a meal, don't blame you.
13:38So, on the day,
13:40Gary's collection,
13:43£24 taken home.
13:44That's the way it goes.
13:46Not exactly a fortune,
13:48but your gamble paid off, Gary.
13:50Well, yeah, yeah,
13:51the real deal's the real deal, you know.
13:53As long as you make a bit of a profit,
13:55you've had a good time,
13:56you've had a good day,
13:57you've met David,
13:58what more can I say?
13:59Um, no egg on face for fae.
14:06After the break,
14:07one man's meat...
14:08Isn't this the most extraordinary bit of pottery?
14:12It's kind of the sort of thing
14:13you see in a butcher shop window.
14:15..is another man's poison.
14:17Well, I've got rid of that horrible vase.
14:20And?
14:21I feel really poor.
14:23Tracy goes back to her roots.
14:26Normally she buys Fabergé,
14:27she buys exotic jewels.
14:29Recently she's fell on hard times
14:31and she's back on Cornishware,
14:33which is what she used to do for years and years.
14:36Yes, I do.
14:36Has Tracy run out of cash?
14:39Uh-uh.
14:43Let's see how they've done.
14:45Opera glasses.
14:46Vintage cameras.
14:49Dickinson's Real Deal,
14:50brought to you by Vintage Cash Cow.
14:53Let's see how they've done.
14:55Opera glasses.
14:57Vintage cameras.
14:59Dickinson's Real Deal,
15:00brought to you by Vintage Cash Cow.
15:06Oh, there you are.
15:07Welcome back to Dickinson's Real Deal
15:10from Burton-on-Trent.
15:12As they say,
15:13beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
15:15Well, they're good quality,
15:16got a lot.
15:17You either like something
15:19or you don't.
15:20Perhaps not the most accomplished
15:22paintings that you're ever going to see.
15:24And there's no point
15:26holding on to something you don't like.
15:28Hey, Brian?
15:30I've bought this vase thing,
15:32which I've never liked it.
15:35And now it's mine,
15:36I'm going to get rid of it.
15:38And luckily for you,
15:40James fancies it.
15:41This brings back a few memories for me.
15:43I bought one of these when I was 16.
15:46And now I'm much older
15:48and I get to buy another one.
15:49Great.
15:50All we need to know now is the price.
15:52I think 50.
15:54If I can get a little bit more,
15:56that would be better.
15:58So you brought along a bit of old pottery?
16:01Yes.
16:01It's a bit of old Czechoslovakian pottery.
16:04And do you like it?
16:06No.
16:06No?
16:09How has it come to be in your possession?
16:11Well, it was left to be by my mum.
16:13Right.
16:14It's been in the family,
16:16to my knowledge,
16:17for more than 70 years.
16:19As a child,
16:20I tried to break it
16:21because I didn't like it.
16:26So I think it's time to...
16:28Move it on.
16:29Move it on.
16:30See if I can get some pennies for it.
16:32Yes, pennies.
16:33I'm glad you said pennies.
16:34Well, more than pennies.
16:35Hopefully.
16:37I had a little look earlier,
16:38but we'll have a look now.
16:40It's by Zolne,
16:42from Pex,
16:43P-E-C-S.
16:44Now, I thought they were Hungarian.
16:47I thought it was Czech, but...
16:49You thought it was Czech, yeah.
16:50I'm pretty sure it's Hungarian.
16:52OK.
16:52Because when I was a schoolboy,
16:55I used to go to auctions,
16:56and one of the first bits of pottery I bought
16:59was a piece by Zolne of Pex.
17:01Ah.
17:02And as a result,
17:03I bought myself my first ceramics reference book,
17:07and there it all was.
17:08Ah.
17:09Well, that's news to me.
17:11Well, yes.
17:11So, this looks to me,
17:14apart from looking slightly like an internal organ,
17:17it looks to be...
17:19Yes.
17:19..R Nouveau-ish.
17:21Ah.
17:22So I would suggest it was made
17:24between about 1900 and about 1910.
17:27Right.
17:28And they're slightly odd colours, aren't they?
17:30They are, yes.
17:31Is that partly why you don't like it?
17:32Well, that's one of the reasons, yes.
17:35That and the shape.
17:36Yes, it's really the shape.
17:38It's that bit round the top that I don't like.
17:40But it is very, very typical of decoration of the period.
17:45But there we are.
17:46In spite of its manufacturing process
17:48and your efforts to break it,
17:51it's intact.
17:52It's survived.
17:52It's survived, exactly.
17:54Yeah.
17:54So I think it's amusing.
17:55And for old times' sake,
17:57I think it would be quite amusing if I bought it from you.
17:59Well, I'd certainly like to see what you're going to offer me.
18:03I thought you were going to say you'd like to see the back of it.
18:07I'd like to offer you 10, 20, 30.
18:15So 30.
18:16So 40 pounds.
18:20A little bit higher.
18:22A little bit higher.
18:23OK.
18:2550 pounds.
18:26That seems a nice round sum.
18:29So...
18:29But you...
18:30A nice round sum.
18:31But if there's any more there...
18:33I think that 50 is kind of where I see it.
18:39OK.
18:40I think I'll take the 50.
18:42Well, let's shake on that.
18:43Thank you very much for bringing it.
18:45Thank you, James.
18:46I'm pleased to have relieved you of it.
18:49Well, I've got rid of that horrible vase.
18:52The money is going to go to our moving fund.
18:55And I think I've got the real deal.
18:58And James is trying to convince himself he's done the right thing.
19:02Isn't this the most extraordinary bit of pottery?
19:05It's kind of the sort of thing you see in a butcher shop window.
19:09And then you don't buy.
19:11What have you done, James?
19:13It's an ugly little beast, isn't it?
19:16Fortunately, our big money cash competition prize
19:19is a very attractive offer, isn't it, David?

20:21Right, who fancies a quick-fire round?
20:24Off the top of your head, what's the oldest?
20:26Is there any Victorian?
20:28No idea.
20:29Yeah, that's a pass from me too.
20:32Am I looking very blurry?
20:33I feel it.
20:34It's hard to tell.
20:35It could be the light.
20:37Do you know how the show works?
20:38I know this one.
20:40The dealer makes you an offer.
20:42You say...
20:43You keep putting some money down.
20:45And then you get...
20:46The real deal.
20:47Next.
20:48What would I like to see come through the door?
20:51Nominate Mr Stevens.
20:52We want gold, we want silver, medals, coins.
20:56Anything that has a value.
20:57We want it.
20:59Give us one more, Tracey.
21:00What are they worth?
21:01Am I going to buy them?
21:03That is the question.
21:05Jackie, any idea?
21:06No, not really.
21:08That doesn't matter.
21:09All we want to know is how much do you want.
21:12I'm not too fussy about how much I get.
21:14Around £30 would be quite nice.
21:18I can see you've brought some pottery in.
21:20Yeah.
21:20Would you like to tell me your story?
21:22Yes, I had these when I used to work at TG Greens
21:26and I used to be able to do the transfer printing,
21:30the lithographing they called it,
21:31and sometimes I was doing the banding round the edging.
21:34I used to put these banding bits on as well,
21:37painting them on.
21:38Yeah, they're lovely.
21:39So you put them on and then they glaze them over the tops?
21:42Yes.
21:43I presume so.
21:44Yeah, they go into the kiln afterwards and get fired.
21:47Did you work for TG Green a long time?
21:50For about six years, yeah.
21:51Six years.
21:52The Staffordshire-based company, I believe?
21:54Yes, yes.
21:55They're in Gresley.
21:57Gresley?
21:58Yeah.
21:58So, this is my favourite pieces.
22:02Yeah.
22:02And then we've got the TG Green Staffordshire Mark.
22:06So it's Thomas Goodwin Green.
22:09Yeah.
22:09And continue to manufacture still?
22:12No, it's shut down now.
22:14Has it gone now?
22:15Yes, it's shut down about 2001, 2002, somewhere around there.
22:19Blimey, that far back.
22:21Yeah.
22:21Very British.
22:23Yes.
22:24So, why have you decided to part with them now?
22:27They've been sat in the loft for the last 20 years or so.
22:30Right.
22:31I've just not used them.
22:32OK.
22:33And what are you going to do with the money if I do manage to purchase them?
22:37Well, it's my grandson's birthday, if you're soon, his 21st birthday.
22:4121st.
22:42So I'm hoping to put the money towards something for him.
22:44Right.
22:45So, where am I going to be on this?
22:48I feel really poor because I know it's not going to be very high.
22:53I didn't expect it at all.
22:55I know.
22:56I know.
22:56So, let's just...
22:58So, £20, £30.
23:04Is that all?
23:06Do you know...
23:07It's for my grandson.
23:09I know.
23:11I think we need to bring David in.
23:13Let's see what he says.
23:14Yes, please.
23:16Oh, boy.
23:19I know.
23:21Well, there are buyers out there for this.
23:24Yeah.
23:25£20 to £30.
23:26It's about the money.
23:28Yeah.
23:29Would you put another tenner in?
23:32OK, it's definitely enough.
23:33It is.
23:34OK, so I'm going to say, normally she buys Fabergé, she buys exotic jewels, she buys gold, she buys diamonds.
23:41But today...
23:42Recently, she's fell on hard times and she's back on Cornishware, which is what she used to do for years
23:47and years.
23:48Yes, I did.
23:48So, I'm going to say, she's been good to you, she's given you ten quid over what it's worth.
23:54Yes, thank you.
23:54That's the real deal.
23:57£40 on the table, do we have a deal?
24:00We do, yes.
24:01Les, give us your hand.
24:02Thank you, my love.
24:04You're welcome.
24:04Thank you very much.
24:06David gave me some good advice and got me the real deal.
24:10Feeling confident, Tracey?
24:12Do I expect to make any profit on this pottery lot?
24:16Probably not.
24:18Oh, well, you never know.
24:23Coming up...
24:24£1,200.
24:27Do feel free to stop me.
24:29Salah's giving nothing away.
24:31But the Duke's in full swing.
24:33Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-Wardaloo.
24:36Da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
24:39£40?
24:40Don't laugh at me, David.
24:42I tell you what, you've had him over, haven't you?
24:44Get that money and get out of here.
24:46Cheers, David. Thank you very much.
24:51Let's see how they've done.
24:53Opera glasses.
24:54Vintage cameras.
24:57Dickinson's Real Deal, brought to you by Vintage Cash Girl.
25:01Let's see how they've done.
25:03Opera glasses.
25:04Vintage cameras.
25:07Dickinson's Real Deal, brought to you by Vintage Cash Girl.
25:14Welcome back to Dickinson's Real Deal.
25:17Yes!
25:18Do you want to come along to the show and sell your goods?
25:20Ka-ching!
25:21Bring along small items of value you can carry.
25:25We've got some money.
25:27That's the real deal.
25:28I'll be waiting for you.
25:30Why not cash in your unwanted items at the Sheffield Town Hall this Saturday?
25:34Or at the Jet Age Museum Gloucester on Saturday, 7th February.
25:40Doors open from 8am to 5pm.
25:43Details of all upcoming dealer days at itv.com slash beyondtv.
25:50The den is still a hive of activity.
25:53Are we all spending?
25:55Certainly looks like it, David.
25:58And one of our dealers is feeling particularly chipper.
26:022,700, I want you to have a fabulous holiday.
26:05There's no doubt, at this precise moment, there's still time to go.
26:10I've got to be at the top on the ranking of the spending.
26:13Indeed you are, and miles ahead of Faye.
26:16What are you going to do?
26:17Auction it is.
26:18I'm not doing very well at the moment.
26:20However, I've got a big gold thing coming up, so I'm hoping to spend another couple of thousand.
26:25Good news for our next seller.
26:26Are you ready to go, Salah?
26:29Yes.
26:29Are we ready to start?
26:31Yes.
26:32No time to waste.
26:33You've brought along today four lovely rings.
26:36That's right, yes.
26:38I used to be a jeweller.
26:40You were a jeweller?
26:41Yes, I used to have a shop in Emirates, in Dubai.
26:45In Dubai?
26:46Yes.
26:47How many years ago was that?
26:4945 years ago.
26:5145 years ago.
26:51I gave up and came to the UK.
26:53So, these rings, which one of these was your favourite?
26:57One with a diamond.
26:59The horseshoe one?
27:01Yes.
27:01So, I'm going to take this ring out and have a better look.
27:05Yes.
27:05So, we've got a very heavy gents ring here.
27:09This one is stamped 18 carat.
27:12Yes.
27:12So, these are little white, round, brilliant cut diamonds.
27:18Yes.
27:19And I would estimate, in total, there's a total diamond weight of around about half a carat.
27:27Yes, 15 of them.
27:28So, let me pop that one back there.
27:30Right.
27:31That one is a yellow metal with a turquoise stone.
27:3521 carat.
27:36That one's 21 carat.
27:38Yes.
27:38So, that one was definitely made abroad.
27:41And then this little one here, this, it's again a white metal.
27:44Yes.
27:44And this one is 18 carat?
27:46About this one.
27:47It is 18.
27:48And this was a gift from my sister.
27:53A gift from your sister?
27:54Yeah.
27:55And then this one, was this your wedding band?
27:57That's right, yeah.
27:59Wonderful.
28:00Shall we see if we can do a deal?
28:02Yes.
28:03Let's start with £1,000.
28:09Shaking, shaking your head there.
28:11Too little.
28:15£1,100.
28:17£1,200.
28:20Do feel free to stop me.
28:24£1,300.
28:26£1,400.
28:29£1,500.
28:32That's a lot of money.
28:33No.
28:34Sorry.
28:35It's not for this.
28:36No?
28:37No.
28:38Shall I keep going?
28:39Please.
28:41£1,600.
28:44£1,700.
28:48£1,800.
28:54£1,900.
28:57Yeah.
28:58That's £2,000 on the table.
29:01Right.
29:02A bit more.
29:04A bit more.
29:06£2,100.
29:10£2,200.
29:13What?
29:13What do you think?
29:15You...
29:16Well, you have a deal.
29:17Can I shake your hand?
29:19Yeah.
29:20Thank you very much for coming along today.
29:22Good luck to you.
29:25Salah.
29:26Salah was a lovely, lovely gentleman and I really hope he left happy.
29:30Salah?
29:31Well, I got a good deal.
29:34And it must feel good to have bought something at last, Faye.
29:38I've spent some money.
29:39I shall make some money.
29:40And you at home could be making a lot of money if you enter our big cash competition.
29:47Wow!
29:48There's £110,000 here.
29:52Can you imagine what you could spend it on?
29:55A home extension, a new car.
29:57Just one person is going to win this prize outright.
30:01And it could be you.

30:38Lines close Monday 2nd of February at 10am.
30:44On a busy dealer's day, we're guaranteed to see all sorts of unusual things.
30:49I love this item.
30:51And it's good to try something different.
30:53I love them and I get to try and buy them with all I've got.
30:57But try telling that to Mark.
30:59He's giving me teddy bears.
31:02So I'm a bit worried about telling him that his next item is a fire extinguisher.
31:10Admittedly, it's not something you see every day.
31:13I've never bought a fire extinguisher in my life unless it was for the offices.
31:18But certainly not to buy and try and resell.
31:21I wouldn't know whether to put a £5 note down or a £50 note down.
31:26Or even more.
31:27I really don't know.
31:28Hazel, Kevin, what are you hoping for?
31:31Probably a lot more than we're going to get, to be fair.
31:34But if we could get, I don't know, £50, £100, something like that, it'd be nice.
31:40What are you trying to do to me?
31:43You've put on a fire extinguisher, which I know very little about.
31:46So please enlighten me, how did you come by it?
31:49And why are you selling it?
31:52My dad was a mining surveyor, worked in the local pits.
31:55And as the pits were being closed down, they got the chance to take items away.
32:01And my dad chose to take the fire extinguisher.
32:03We used to spend a lot of time polishing it up, making it look nice.
32:06And my son, when he was younger, used to play with it a lot.
32:09And my dad always said that, should anything happen, it would become my son's.
32:13My son has now inherited it.
32:15But he's like, I don't want to play with it anymore, Dad.
32:21Well, I know nothing, but I'm just looking at the way this is constructed.
32:26And I would say 1950s.
32:28Please tell me if I'm wrong.
32:30I would say so.
32:3040s, 50s.
32:31Yeah.
32:32But unfortunately, I think over the years where they've cleaned it, the substance that
32:38they've used to clean it has deteriorated the sign here.
32:42Waterloo is the brand of this.
32:45And they manufactured in the 20s, right the way through to the 20th century.
32:50We believe it's not even being opened.
32:53It's not been designed.
32:54No, I think whatever's inside's probably had its last day.
32:58I wouldn't like to have a little, shall we say, fire here and test it out, would we?
33:03You'd be fine.
33:03I'm a fire warden.
33:04Oh, you're a fire warden.
33:05OK.
33:06So, well, you know what to do then.
33:08Why don't you keep this?
33:09No, I'm sick of polishing it.
33:11I don't want to do it no more.
33:12I don't blame you.
33:13Look, I'm going to be, just to tell you straight out here, I haven't got a clue what it's worth.
33:18There's no point in messing around with things like this.
33:19I don't know.
33:20It's very specialist.
33:21So what I'm going to do, I'm going to put just a little bit of money on the table.
33:25Then I need to take some advice from the boss.
33:29So, 20, 40 pounds on the table for something I know nothing about.
33:36And I need some help.
33:38And here it is.
33:38Da, da, da, da, da, da, Wadaloo.
33:41Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
33:4340 quid?
33:45Don't laugh at me, David.
33:48Well, there has been several of these advertised on websites.
33:52They seem to fetch an extraordinary amount of money.
33:56But I can see these perhaps as an interior decorator lot in a boutique, a shop, possibly in your home.
34:03I think my wife might have something to say about that.
34:0630 to 50 pounds, 40 pounds by the man that gives the big money.
34:11I tell you what, you've had him over, haven't you?
34:14Get that money and get out of here.
34:15Cheers, David.
34:16Thank you very much.
34:17God, yeah, I can honestly, it's a very difficult thing to price.
34:24There is a big, wide world out there.
34:26To find that world, possibly the best route, in my opinion, is the auction.
34:31Yeah, OK.
34:32I'll take it all.
34:33I wish you the very best of luck.
34:35I hope it does very well for you.
34:36Thank you very much.
34:38Inga's crossed it does better at auction, guys.
34:41Yes.
34:42Hopefully.
34:43You just need the right person, really.
34:45Someone not called Mark Stephens.
34:47Yeah.
34:48There's only one Mark Stephens.
34:50You said it.
34:54900 and a bid.
34:56What does our auctioneer, Richard, think of its chances?
35:00They're always popular.
35:02It's a lovely colour.
35:04It's a bit of history.
35:05A good bid, actually, was made on the day, but I still think we'll do slightly better for it.
35:11Hazel can't make it, but Kevin's hoping it does well.
35:14It is for my son.
35:16It was handed down to him from my father, and hopefully he'll buy something that we remember him by.
35:23Now, we like to find unusual things on the show, and this was something I've never seen before.
35:28And nowadays, all kinds of oddments, you know, are collectible.
35:32The reserve is set at 30.
35:34What's it going to break?
35:36Well, let's find out.
35:37Coming up now.
35:39Waterloo, power of Stingshire.
35:41And we've got bids coming in already.
35:42We're £30 straight in.
35:44We're £35.
35:44We're £40.
35:45We're £50.
35:46We're £60.
35:47It's there at £60.
35:48£60 a bid.
35:49£60, I bid.
35:50You're all finished at the £60.
35:52No in the room.
35:53Hitting it as it.
35:54And sold.
35:55£60.
35:58Gamble's gone down at £60.
36:00We've got to take off the dray commission.
36:03But after taking that away, £48.
36:06Happy with that?
36:08Yes.
36:09Go to your son.
36:10Yeah.
36:10Won't have to lug that fire extinguisher around.
36:13On the day, I think it made its money just about right.
36:17£48 taking home.
36:19That was the real deal.
36:21Not much, isn't it, Kevin?
36:22But happy?
36:23It went quite well.
36:24Well, we've got obviously more than was offered on the day from Mark, but my son will be happy
36:30with that.
36:33Coming up...
36:34Being the queen of bling, this piece is going home with me.
36:39Tracey has her eyes on the prize.
36:42I think it's time to get some money on the table.
36:44Yes, please.
36:45OK.
36:45But it won't be easy.
36:47£3,100.
36:49Can you go a little bit high?
36:51Oh, dear.
36:56Let's see how they've done.
36:58Opera glasses.
36:59Vintage cameras.
37:02Dickinson's Real Deal, brought to you by Vintage Cash Cow.
37:06Let's see how they've done.
37:08Opera glasses.
37:10Vintage cameras.
37:12Dickinson's Real Deal, brought to you by Vintage Cash Cow.
37:19Oh, there you are.
37:20Welcome back to Dickinson's Real Deal.
37:23James, yes.
37:24We've got a deal.
37:24We've got a deal.
37:25OK.
37:25We all see the handshakes and the happy sellers.
37:29That's the real deal.
37:30But it's behind the scenes where the real work is done.
37:34This is the routine.
37:36Are we ready?
37:36Ready, ready.
37:37Come on.
37:38Come on.
37:39Looking good, David.
37:41Just a bit of a flick of the hair.
37:42Just like that.
37:43Just like that.
37:45That's nice.
37:46And it's down to our off-screen valuers to scrutinise everything that comes through the door.
37:52I would say at auction you'll probably be looking at something in the region of about three, four hundred pounds.
37:56Well, I'm walking around to see what's turned up here at the deer barn.
38:00I've just spotted gold.
38:02It is the thing of the moment.
38:04People are realising in the back of a cupboard, a drawer, in a jewellery box, they have small items which
38:12come to quite a few ounces.
38:14And that is quite a few quid.
38:16So this gold coin should excite our tracer.
38:19Being the queen of bling, this piece is going home with me.
38:24Only for the right price, eh, Iman?
38:27I have a limit in my mind, so let's see what the dealer offers.
38:32And hopefully I will sell it today.
38:37I can see you've brought some gold in today.
38:40Yes.
38:41Could you tell me a little bit about it?
38:43It's a wedding gift from my brother-in-law.
38:48From your brother-in-law, a wedding gift?
38:50Yes.
38:50OK.
38:51It's more than 51 years ago.
38:54Wow.
38:55That's quite a wedding gift.
38:57Yeah.
38:58Do you know anything about this coin?
39:01I know it's like 24 carat gold.
39:05Yeah.
39:06And it's heavy, a little bit.
39:08It is heavy.
39:09Yeah.
39:09And have you actually wore it on a train?
39:12Yeah, I wore it.
39:12I wore it because it has got a thick chain.
39:16Right.
39:16Also.
39:17And I wore it one.
39:19It's a substantial piece of gold.
39:21I'm going to put my glasses on and let's see what we've got.
39:24So what we've got is we've got this Mexican gold coin, which is a 50 pesos.
39:31And then we've got this pretty mount, which I suspect is 18 carat gold, and this is the Angel of
39:39Independence.
39:40And then on the reverse, we've got the Mexican Eagle, it's quite a substantial coin that, it's a nice piece.
39:52So why have you decided to sell it?
39:55So why have you decided to sell it now?
39:56I'm not wearing it anymore.
39:58No.
39:58Yeah.
39:58And I might as well help my children for, like, to paying some amount of their mortgage.
40:05Of their mortgage.
40:06Yeah.
40:07So I think it's time to get some money on the table.
40:10Yes, please.
40:11OK.
40:12Right.
40:13So we're going to say two and a half thousand, and then we're going to go 100, 200, 300, 400,
40:315.
40:32So that brings it up to 3,000.
40:35A bit higher.
40:37We'll be back with Tracey and Iman in a minute.

41:45Back to Tracey and Iman and that gorgeous 50 peso gold coin.
41:513,000.
41:53A bit higher.
41:553,100.
41:593,200.
42:083,400.
42:11Can you go a little bit high?
42:13A little bit.
42:15So we're up to 3,500.
42:203,600.
42:23Can I ask for Mr Dickinson's advice?
42:26Bring David in, please.
42:28That's fine.
42:29I heard the call.
42:32Well, a wonderful coin.
42:36Today it's all about the bullion weight.
42:39There's nothing wrong with the coin, but eventually it will be sold through Tracey
42:44because of its intrinsic bullion value.
42:47There is £3,900 and about £6 in gold and you're being offered £3,600.
42:54£3,700.
42:57OK, I think it's a steal.
42:59Grab your money and run because she'll make £300.
43:02But if you went to the auction, whoever bought that would have to pay 20% on top.
43:09So they wouldn't give more than £3,200.
43:12Maybe a bit less, £3,000.
43:14So that is a great price on the day for bullion goals.
43:19You've done well.
43:20Is it a fair deal?
43:20That's a real deal.
43:21A real deal?
43:22A real deal.
43:23I'll take the money.
43:24You're taking the money.
43:25I still blame you at all.
43:27So we have a deal?
43:28Yes.
43:33Thanks to David, I got a little more money.
43:37It is a real deal.
43:39I am super happy.
43:41I told you I was going to buy the gold coin.
43:44I am the golden girl.
43:45I am the daddy.
43:47You're only the daddy if you make a profit, Tracy.
43:503,700 paid.
43:53I sold for 3,718 in the shop a couple of days later.
43:58So grand profit of £80.
44:01I am very happy and hopefully it managed very happy too.
44:06So a small profit there.
44:09How about the pottery collection?
44:11She has been good to you.
44:12She has given you 10 quid over what it is worth.
44:15Yes.
44:15Was 50 too much, Tracy?
44:17I am a great fan of British pottery.
44:20So I wanted to keep some of the pieces and indeed I have.
44:25There we are.
44:27So these I am going to use at home.
44:29I am going to enjoy them for years to come.
44:32And to be truthful, I probably think about Jackie when I do use them.
44:35The other two pieces, the teapot on the bowl, I gave to one of my friends
44:39because they are going to enjoy it.
44:41So all gone to a good home.
44:43No profit.
44:44But a beautiful story.
44:46A beautiful story is not going to put food on the table.
44:49How terrible is it?
44:50James paid £50 for his pottery piece.
44:53It is kind of the sort of thing you see in a butcher shop window.
44:57And then you don't buy.
45:00But despite its looks, there was still a profit.
45:03I have enjoyed it for a bit and I passed it on to another customer for £80.
45:07£30.
45:08£30 profit.
45:09Not bad.
45:11But what about Mr Stephens?
45:13I don't care about the money.
45:15£2,700.
45:16I want you to have a fabulous holiday.
45:18Mary was over the moon, but was Mark.
45:20They've all gone, everyone sold and I've managed to make £205 profit.
45:26Faye had a tough deal for Salah's rings.
45:29£1,200.
45:31Do feel free to stop me.
45:34But managed to buy them for £2,200.
45:37I've spent some money, I shall make some money.
45:40Come on Faye, spill the beans.
45:42By the time I'd taken and recycled the stones out of them, I sold the gold and I made £195
45:50profit.
45:51Get in.
45:52It was certainly a golden day for our sellers.
45:56I'm so happy.
45:57With over £10,000 spent on it.
45:59And I've got the real deal.
46:01I'm off on my holidays.
46:04Wow.
46:05What a great show we've had today.
46:07There's been lots of excitement.
46:09There's been some fantastic deals.
46:11I've really enjoyed it.
46:12And I hope you have.
