0:00:30 > 0:00:36Welcome to Flog It! - where you learn and earn from antiques.
0:00:36 > 0:00:43Auctions are exciting and give you a real buzz when selling your own items. That's when nerves creep in.
0:00:43 > 0:00:50Hundreds of people will have their antiques valued by our experts and a few then go to auction
0:00:50 > 0:00:57to make their owners a profit. But how much will they make? Will they stand the pace?
0:00:57 > 0:01:02We'll find out how they do when their antiques go under the hammer.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05I'm on edge at the moment.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08How are you feeling? Positive? Yeah.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12I don't believe this.
0:01:12 > 0:01:17Dig deep. Yeah, dig deep, that's right.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Yes!
0:01:18 > 0:01:21We need 190, don't we? At least.
0:01:21 > 0:01:27That's so good. That really is the excitement of auction, isn't it?
0:01:32 > 0:01:39First, let's find out what the public have brought to the Riviera Centre in Torquay.
0:01:39 > 0:01:44Most of these people won't mind selling thir antiques for cash
0:01:44 > 0:01:49and, as always, they have to face the scrutiny of our two experts.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54David Barby puts 25 years' experience to the test at valuation day.
0:01:54 > 0:02:00I love Torquay. It's by the coast, on the sea, but I haven't had a dip yet.
0:02:00 > 0:02:05It's a very affluent area, it's almost tangible in the atmosphere,
0:02:05 > 0:02:08so I think some good quality things will come up.
0:02:10 > 0:02:16And young Thomas Plant will keep an eye open for decorative objects.
0:02:16 > 0:02:23I'm hoping to see a bit of deco ware, maybe ceramics, the odd bronze-and-ivory figure.
0:02:23 > 0:02:30Arriving today, I noticed a few deco buildings and a very nice cinema, so I've high hopes for that.
0:02:31 > 0:02:38They're both chomping at the bit, so let's go inside and see what surprises we have in store.
0:02:39 > 0:02:45Mary, I've always... It's been my desire to buy a seaside villa.
0:02:45 > 0:02:49This is the epitome of a seaside villa, is it not?
0:02:49 > 0:02:54Yes. Do you have an interest in doll's houses? Yes, for years.
0:02:54 > 0:03:01This is the first art deco one I've had. This is what we call Modernist architecture,
0:03:01 > 0:03:05probably dating from the latter part of the 1930s.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10What I like is the shape of the bay windows and the balconies. Yes.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14But I don't like those net curtains. No.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18They're net curtains of the 1950s. Terrible things. Yes.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22If we open it up, we can see the interior.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27So we have a kitchen, dining, lounge there, one bedroom
0:03:27 > 0:03:30and this would have been the stairwell.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33A nice feature is a little doorway
0:03:33 > 0:03:37that goes through onto this balcony here
0:03:37 > 0:03:42and then another staircase that goes to this suntrap area.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Then you have a balcony for sunbathing.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48This is a Triang design,
0:03:48 > 0:03:53probably made in 1937-1939, that sort of period.
0:03:53 > 0:03:58Value of this. I would think at auction,
0:03:58 > 0:04:03I'd like to see it go for possibly 150, maybe more.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07But we've got to put a price to attract would-be purchasers. Yes.
0:04:07 > 0:04:14So if say 120-150. It's the sort of thing people say, "Ah! We can start collecting doll's house furniture."
0:04:14 > 0:04:20Has it always been in your family? No, I bought it at a fair.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23How much did you pay for it? ?50.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Some time ago? Two years ago.
0:04:26 > 0:04:33I thought it was a very good price. I did. I'd have gone to 150 for it at the time.
0:04:33 > 0:04:40It's super and there'll be a ready market for it. You'd be happy if I auctioned it? Yes. Excellent!
0:04:40 > 0:04:45Have you pushed this from home? Yes. Really? No, I stuck it in the car.
0:04:45 > 0:04:51It comes to pieces. It's incredible. How long have you had it? Oh, um...
0:04:51 > 0:04:58I can't remember. Quite a few years. I collect prams. Do you? How many have you got? About 100-plus.
0:04:58 > 0:05:03That's not collecting - it's bonkers on prams, obsessive. Yes.
0:05:03 > 0:05:09This is one of your oldest ones, is it? No, I've got some older, about 1860.
0:05:09 > 0:05:15This is about 1890. Wow! So you're a bit of an authority on prams. No, I'm always learning.
0:05:15 > 0:05:22Do you live in Torquay? No, I live in Okehampton. So you couldn't have pushed it here, could you?
0:05:22 > 0:05:28No. It's incredible. Lovely, isn't it? Yes. Craftsmanship. Look at the hubs.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32What did you pay for this? We were trying to remember.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36I think probably about 500. I can't quite remember.
0:05:36 > 0:05:41How long have you been collecting? 20-odd years.
0:05:41 > 0:05:47The first one I bought was when my son was born. Have you still got that one? Yes.
0:05:47 > 0:05:54And that's a Victorian one. Well, I think it's absolutely divine, it really is. Yes.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Talk me through these. They were among Mother's things when she died.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Yes. She died about 6-8 years ago.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08And she was a big collector of artefacts.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13She'd go to auctions, charity shops, bring-and-buy sales.
0:06:13 > 0:06:18She'd just collect bits and pieces and had an eye for things. Now...
0:06:18 > 0:06:22which items do you like and which don't you?
0:06:22 > 0:06:26Um, I used to collect frogs. Yes. And I don't any more. No? No.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31Where have your frogs gone? Oh, just been given away.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36Given away? But I love your frog. Tell me a bit more about it.
0:06:36 > 0:06:43It was one of two that she used as a doorstop, but my father broke one, so I got the other one. Shame. It is.
0:06:43 > 0:06:48It's very light, so its fate was sealed when it was a doorstop. Yes.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52I think it's something like a spoon warmer of some kind.
0:06:52 > 0:06:57These grotesque things could be to warm spoons or maybe just a vase.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01But it certainly caught my eye.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05It's not a well-known factory. It's just got Leeds Pottery.
0:07:05 > 0:07:10This mark, 1344, is just the series number when it must have been made.
0:07:10 > 0:07:15I'd put between ?50 and ?80 on it. I think you've a good chance. OK.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Would you be happy? Yes.
0:07:27 > 0:07:34Thank goodness I had my breakfast two hours ago, because this is the most fascinating, intriguing,
0:07:34 > 0:07:38but gruesome collection of photographs I've ever seen.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42This all came about... Tell me the history of it.
0:07:42 > 0:07:49Chas Belcher was a detective inspector for Scotland Yard at the turn of the century. Right.
0:07:49 > 0:07:54This is a compilation of the crimes he was involved in.
0:07:54 > 0:08:00It was given to my grandfather who was executor of his will in 1935.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04What crimes was he involved in? The most famous was the Dr Crippen case.
0:08:04 > 0:08:11Before that, there were a tremendous amount of murders involved - the Temple Gate murders.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15What I find fascinating is that there are photographs in here
0:08:15 > 0:08:20that were never released before because they are so gruesome. Yes.
0:08:20 > 0:08:28This one here, of Sipido, I find interesting, because he attempted to assassinate Edward VII.
0:08:28 > 0:08:33Yes, in 1901. He was Prince of Wales then and became Edward VII in 1902.
0:08:33 > 0:08:39We also have photographs of the Black Museum which haven't been seen before.
0:08:39 > 0:08:44There's so much detail in this, including a card, engraved by hand,
0:08:44 > 0:08:48by John Syndey Cottam, a bank note forger.
0:08:48 > 0:08:55That's right, he did it with a pin and a thimble full of ink and gave it to my grandfather and his friend.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00Whilst he was in prison? Yes. Gosh! This is a wonderful record.
0:09:00 > 0:09:08In fact, this Mr Belcher was almost like the John Morse of recent fame. Yes, when I was a child,
0:09:08 > 0:09:15I always called him my famous detective. It is a wonderful, unique album.
0:09:15 > 0:09:21As I said, there's photographs in here that have never been seen by the general public.
0:09:21 > 0:09:27So if these go up for sale, somebody's going to get a record
0:09:27 > 0:09:32that is going to be historical, at the same time, unique.
0:09:32 > 0:09:39I keep using this word "unique", but it IS. There's no other copy in existence, so it's important.
0:09:39 > 0:09:46If it goes up for sale, I would think in terms of a price, because of its nature and subject matter,
0:09:46 > 0:09:53of probably around ?5,000. Fine. And you'd be happy if we put it up for sale at 5,000? Yes.
0:09:53 > 0:09:59With the right publicity, we'll get that. Right. Thank you. Thank YOU!
0:09:59 > 0:10:03What have you brought in there? I knew someone would ask me eventually.
0:10:03 > 0:10:08A Crimean War musket. You're not going to shoot me, are you? No.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Stand back.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18Wow! It's got a broken stick to go with it.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23For an early weapon, you don't need an arms licence, do you? No.
0:10:23 > 0:10:29It's some weight. Can you imagine firing that? You only get one go as well. Yeah.
0:10:29 > 0:10:37Where did you get it? A friend from Birmingham had it and I bought it from him about seven years ago.
0:10:37 > 0:10:43So I've come to check it out and get the full story on what it is. Great.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Good luck. Thank you.
0:10:45 > 0:10:50My favourite item is the pram, and I'm not alone. David and Thomas are fighting over it.
0:10:50 > 0:10:57Thomas, what do you think of this? I was pooh-poohing to begin with, but it's nice looking at it closer.
0:10:57 > 0:11:01I think it's fabby. It's got so much style.
0:11:01 > 0:11:07The canopy's really smart. Does that go back and forwards? Yes.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10You adjust these nuts at the side here. Yeah.
0:11:10 > 0:11:16To angle for sun. You can change the handles for the basket? Yes.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20What I like is the cross-stretchers underneath.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25Look at the springing - incredible! If you're going on cobbled streets,
0:11:25 > 0:11:30the child would not be necessarily disturbed. It is really wonderful.
0:11:30 > 0:11:35It would be the most expensive pram available on the market.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39I'd say the date is about the time of the Exhibition, 1862.
0:11:39 > 0:11:45I thought about 1890. Oh, it's not as late as that, no.
0:11:45 > 0:11:52Not with this springing underneath. It reminds me very much of early-19th-century carriages.
0:11:52 > 0:11:59This would have been made by a carriage maker, it is of that quality. Yeah. It's really good.
0:11:59 > 0:12:04The other thing I like is this basketwork here.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09It's in lovely condition. Yes. Is it English? Or is it French?
0:12:09 > 0:12:12It's American. No?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14It could well be American.
0:12:14 > 0:12:21Could it be American from New Orleans? Because of the canopy. Pretty, isn't it?
0:12:21 > 0:12:26I love this structure under here. It's very good. I like it immensely.
0:12:26 > 0:12:31Is this something you're going to sell? Possibly. Tell me a price.
0:12:31 > 0:12:38I think I'd stick my neck out and say ?500 to ?650, that sort of price range.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42I mean, obviously, the condition, I've always been told,
0:12:42 > 0:12:47is so important with collector's items. You say this condition is...
0:12:47 > 0:12:51If the condition was better, it would be well over 1,000.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Will you take it, Thomas? Or will it be a joint responsibility?
0:12:55 > 0:13:02If Madam would like us to take it at that sort of value of between 500 and 600.
0:13:02 > 0:13:08Right. It's going to have to be six rather than the five. I think we should take it in, Thomas.
0:13:08 > 0:13:13I'll sign the paper and then it'll be joint at the day of the auction.
0:13:13 > 0:13:19Have I got to wheel it all the way? No, we'll take it for you.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23I shall take a bet on this. That'll be interesting. Thank you.
0:13:31 > 0:13:36Let's see what our owners have decided to sell at auction so far.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42Mary hopes her 1920s doll's house will find a new home...
0:13:42 > 0:13:44and new curtains!
0:13:44 > 0:13:48Angela's spoon warmer is the last in the line.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51Definitely time to "Flog It!"
0:13:51 > 0:13:55David's collection of gruesome photographs is unique,
0:13:55 > 0:13:57but is it worth ?5,000?
0:13:57 > 0:14:02We all loved Jan's pram, but she bought it for 500 quid.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05So can she possibly make a profit?
0:14:10 > 0:14:16Soon the hammer comes down on our items and we'll find out how much they'll make.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21But first, let's hear what auctioneer Nick has to say.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24His opinion counts, as he'll be doing the selling.
0:14:26 > 0:14:35Mary's doll's house - how do you value something like this? It's such a hard job. We said ?150.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37It's a difficult thing.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41It's not your standard doll's house. It's far more stylish than most.
0:14:41 > 0:14:47But, I think the builders have got a case to answer. Jerry-built. Yes.
0:14:47 > 0:14:54They've left windows out here. It's in need of restoration and maintenance as well.
0:14:54 > 0:15:01You can't enhance it by overpainting it. But the paint is a classic deco colour. Exactly.
0:15:01 > 0:15:07They're difficult to predict and emotional, people that buy toys, dolls and that sort of thing.
0:15:07 > 0:15:14As you can guess, I'm not a doll kinda guy, so part of me says it's not going to make it. Right, OK.
0:15:14 > 0:15:20We've got a doll's pram here. Same sort of market again, I suppose.
0:15:20 > 0:15:25Again, emotive market. It'll be a doll buyer that collects this,
0:15:25 > 0:15:30rather than someone interested in Victoriana. French doll's pram?
0:15:30 > 0:15:37I can't think of many people who'd want one apart from doll collectors. Janet paid ?500 and wants ?600-800.
0:15:37 > 0:15:43I think she probably paid the market price. She should know if she's collected them.
0:15:43 > 0:15:48To make a profit at auction in such a short period of time...
0:15:48 > 0:15:54I'd like to be upbeat, but I think it's another failure. Falling short of reserve?
0:15:54 > 0:15:57I think ?100 short, maybe even more.
0:15:57 > 0:16:03Oh, well, it looks like she'll be wheeling it back home.
0:16:03 > 0:16:09OK, I think this is a bit macabre - a New Scotland Yard archive album.
0:16:09 > 0:16:14And it's Dr Crippen's book. Yes. This is going to be a difficult one.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Um, we've seen this one before. Here at this auction room? Yes.
0:16:18 > 0:16:24We saw it some 18 months ago, where we put a provisional value on it.
0:16:24 > 0:16:30OK, our expert David valued this at ?5,000, anything up to ?10,000.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Well, we certainly valued it considerably less than that.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37What was that? ?1,000 to ?1,500.
0:16:37 > 0:16:44We also know it has been offered previously in a London auction room and failed to sell at ?1,500.
0:16:44 > 0:16:51So whilst it's macabre and interesting, it obviously doesn't have enough backup literature
0:16:51 > 0:16:57or letters to really personalise it. So, macabre photographs alone...
0:16:57 > 0:17:02and not being a new thing to the market, I think it will struggle.
0:17:10 > 0:17:17The saleroom's packed, you can feel the nerves. The auction's about to start and our owners have arrived.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Let's see how they feel.
0:17:22 > 0:17:29How are you feeling right now, Mary? It's exciting, being in an auction room again.
0:17:29 > 0:17:33You look like you're up for it. Yes, I love it. It's so thrilling.
0:17:33 > 0:17:38It's not a lot, but hopefully we'll get you ?100 to ?150. Hope so.
0:17:38 > 0:17:45What will you do with that money? I was going to contribute towards a boat my son-in-law's buying. Is he?
0:17:45 > 0:17:50Every little helps, because they're expensive. A motor launch?
0:17:50 > 0:17:56Yes, not sailing cos we don't have any experience, but we live just yards from a tidal river.
0:17:56 > 0:18:01A mooring at the end of the garden? Just about. A stone's throw.
0:18:01 > 0:18:08A lot of money, but hopefully you'll get it. Yes. What will you do with it? Invest it for my girl.
0:18:08 > 0:18:15I've a five-year-old girl and it would mean a lot to her in years to come, so I'll invest it for her.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Sensible, actually.
0:18:17 > 0:18:22We'll see how they do shortly as the hammer comes down on their lots.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26First, Angela and Aubrey's frog spoon warmer.
0:18:26 > 0:18:31How are you feeling - positive? Positive. Oh, definitely. Ready?
0:18:31 > 0:18:36I've seen a few people looking at it. Oh, right. Oh, have they?
0:18:36 > 0:18:42Either they've been thinking, "What is this?" Or, "I know what that is. Wow!"
0:18:42 > 0:18:47"It's a toothbrush holder!" There aren't any others here, are there?
0:18:47 > 0:18:52No, it's unique. Nothing else quite like it, is there?
0:18:52 > 0:18:57Lot 282, a Leeds Pottery spoon warmer of slip-cast construction.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02Interest here, and that's with me at ?22.
0:19:02 > 0:19:0725. Yes. And 30, doorway bidder. Do I hear 35? ..38.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10And 40. ..42. ..45. ..48?
0:19:10 > 0:19:14No. Doorway bidder, then, at ?45. ..Below at 8.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17And 50. Excellent. 5. ..And 60?
0:19:17 > 0:19:21No, it's below at 55. ..60, do I see?
0:19:21 > 0:19:2360, thank you. ..5.
0:19:23 > 0:19:2970? ..No. Seated below still at ?65, ideally on a lemon-covered sofa.
0:19:30 > 0:19:36Angela, how do you feel? That was your valuation. 50 to 70. Bang on.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40Are you pleased? Yeah, jolly good. I hope you're pleased. Yes.
0:19:40 > 0:19:47It's the end of the era for you. It's probably gone to someone who collects frogs, just like you did.
0:19:47 > 0:19:54What will you do with the money? Goodness only knows. You've got to celebrate. I have, haven't I?
0:19:54 > 0:19:59We'll have to think about that frog. Put the money towards a good cause.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Yes. Thanks for coming. It's been lovely.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06The next lot is David's album of crime.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09Now, which expert has got it right?
0:20:09 > 0:20:15I'm getting excited. My knees are a bit, er... This is quite a big thing. We need five grand.
0:20:15 > 0:20:20We're up now. A rather interesting album, rather macabre.
0:20:20 > 0:20:27A Dr Crippen case containing photographs, cuttings and other topographical and safari material.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Thank you, Steven.
0:20:30 > 0:20:35And we start here at ?1,500. It's with me at ?1,500.
0:20:35 > 0:20:3850, do I see? It's here at ?1,500.
0:20:38 > 0:20:43And 50, do I see? It's here at ?1,500. And 50, do I see?
0:20:43 > 0:20:46No? If you're all done, it's with me.
0:20:46 > 0:20:53Unusual thing, it's a shame to miss it. If you're all done, it's with me and stays then at ?1,500.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00Disappointing. That is, isn't it? It is. That's a downer. Never mind.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03It's, er...
0:21:03 > 0:21:05one of those things.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Shame. Well, I hope it's plain sailing for Mary.
0:21:09 > 0:21:15Mary, are the nerves creeping in? Yes, I'm quite excited about it.
0:21:15 > 0:21:20So are we. You didn't take the curtains down. Oh, the net curtains.
0:21:20 > 0:21:27No, scruffy house, I'm afraid. She's never washed them anyway. Ideal for renovation.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Interest here, we start this at ?50.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35It's here at ?50. And five, will you?
0:21:35 > 0:21:41We need a reserve of 120, don't we? That's what I thought.
0:21:41 > 0:21:46I'm asking 55. ..Thank you, 55. ..60. ..And five. ..70. And five?
0:21:46 > 0:21:5080. And five? ..90. And five?
0:21:50 > 0:21:56100. ..And 10, madam? Great. It's with me at ?120. Shame to miss it.
0:21:56 > 0:22:01The book is out, it's yours, in the doorway, at ?110,
0:22:01 > 0:22:07unless I see 20. All done, then, and selling in the doorway at ?110.
0:22:07 > 0:22:12He'll sell it just below reserve, but probably waive the commission.
0:22:12 > 0:22:17You'll get the same money as if it went at 120. Right. Just crept in.
0:22:17 > 0:22:22That's good news anyway. Yes. That lady walked in just as it came up.
0:22:22 > 0:22:29We couldn't have been closer. Incredible. Very exciting. Thank you very much. It's my pleasure.
0:22:34 > 0:22:41The auctioneer has to make a living, so there are a few charges built in when buying at auction.
0:22:41 > 0:22:48Firstly, commission - this varies from 10% to 17?%. There's also VAT to be paid on the commission,
0:22:48 > 0:22:53insurance, storage and sometimes photography for cataloguing.
0:22:53 > 0:22:58So remember, when buying at auction, build those costs into the price.
0:23:04 > 0:23:09Janet should be arriving soon or she'll miss her lot.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13Thomas valued the pram. It was a shared responsibility, this one.
0:23:13 > 0:23:18I put my innings in too. Yes, and Mr Barby came in as well.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22Thomas put the price on it. Here we are, the Three Musketeers.
0:23:22 > 0:23:29Things haven't gone too well, so maybe we're the Three Amigos. Talk for yourself!
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Here we go.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34ALL TALK AT ONCE
0:23:34 > 0:23:38There's interest here. The commission bid is with me...
0:23:39 > 0:23:43..at ?650. Yes!
0:23:43 > 0:23:46The commission bid is with me at ?650.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49And 60 anywhere? At 60, will you?
0:23:49 > 0:23:52It's here at ?650. And 60?
0:23:52 > 0:23:57If you're all done, I'm selling by commission bidder... That's ideal.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01Oh, ye of little faith. Yes, I take it all back.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05I've never valued a pram before, I'll be honest.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09That was good. And your starting pitch was 200?
0:24:09 > 0:24:14I started at two, and David came in and rescued me. Yeah.
0:24:14 > 0:24:19And said, "Thomas, it's a quality item." At 650, it's pretty cheap.
0:24:19 > 0:24:26It needs some restoration. It needs to be done by some doll collector.
0:24:26 > 0:24:33I've never seen one like it. We'd sold late-Victorian ones for ?250 and ?300.
0:24:33 > 0:24:38Using the maximum of the ones we sold, it's got to be worth double.
0:24:38 > 0:24:44As a sort of base to work upon. It goes to show that in our jobs, I've never seen one sell before.
0:24:44 > 0:24:51It's partly decorative as well and you can't arbitrate over that. In the King's Road, it'd be ?1,200.
0:24:51 > 0:24:56As a window display. But this is auction. That is a museum piece.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01Exactly. Indiana Jones said that. "That belongs in a museum."
0:25:02 > 0:25:07'There you go. Valuing antiques is a subjective art.
0:25:07 > 0:25:12'I can't wait for the auction to see how the rest of our owners do.'
0:25:21 > 0:25:29There are hundreds of people here in Torquay and I'm going to dive outside for a quick beaver.
0:25:29 > 0:25:34What have you brought in? A day bed? Yes, and I've also brought some art deco light fittings.
0:25:34 > 0:25:38Those cushions go on this. Yeah.
0:25:38 > 0:25:43It's been shut away for the last couple of years.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46You haven't been using it, then? No.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50I've no room for it. This would look stunning in the garden in summer.
0:25:50 > 0:25:54It would, wouldn't it? Yeah. If it was galvanised. That's that.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57It's very pretty. I've got four of these.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01I've got four of these. Light fittings? Yes.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06And the thingy that goes on the back. The brackets. Yes.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10I really love this. It's great. Oh, thank you.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14Hello. Hello. Oh, that's quite nice.
0:26:14 > 0:26:20Do you want to sell that? Yes. Why? Frightened we'll chip it.
0:26:20 > 0:26:26That's a good reason. Is it a family heirloom? Oh, no. I bought it from a car boot sale.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30How much? It was a pound. I don't believe it! It's true.
0:26:30 > 0:26:36I can't believe anybody could be so stupid! Don't you feel guilty that you did the person?
0:26:36 > 0:26:44I didn't know it was valuable until I looked in the Doulton book and I thought it might be. So I came here.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48He was happy with the pound anyway. Was he really? Dear, oh, dear!
0:26:48 > 0:26:54This is a lovely piece of Doulton. What's fascinating is that you've got...
0:26:54 > 0:27:00two interesting aspects for sale. You've got the golfing subject - and I love the motto.
0:27:00 > 0:27:06"Every dog has his day and every man his hour." That's wonderful.
0:27:06 > 0:27:12So you have the golfing interest, and there's a great interest in golfing ephemera and objects.
0:27:12 > 0:27:17It will interest people of that ilk. Then you've got Doulton collectors.
0:27:17 > 0:27:22This piece has a nice silver-plate rim all the way around.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27And at the end of the day, forgetting the pound you paid,
0:27:27 > 0:27:33we've got to project a price that's going to interest golfing and Doulton collectors.
0:27:33 > 0:27:38I would think that we could put a figure in the region of about...
0:27:38 > 0:27:41?250 to ?350. Oh, very nice.
0:27:41 > 0:27:47Because of the golfing interest. Yes. Yes. I hope it might make more.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52That'd be nice. Are you interested in selling? Yes, we are. Yes.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56We'd be interested in selling it for you. Thank you.
0:28:01 > 0:28:08Tell me about what you've brought here. Right, I bought these at a local auction 16 years ago.
0:28:08 > 0:28:15One of the local hotels was being demolished to make way for flats and they were selling off the contents.
0:28:15 > 0:28:22We were doing up an old house and I thought they'd look really good in the dining room. So I bid on them.
0:28:22 > 0:28:28Where were they in the hotel? They were still on the walls, so we had to use screwdrivers.
0:28:28 > 0:28:34How much did you pay for them? ?5. ?5? ?5. That's pretty good.
0:28:34 > 0:28:38Pretty good. I was quite chuffed. I bet you were! All excited.
0:28:38 > 0:28:42Briony, do you like them? No. No? Not really. Not really.
0:28:42 > 0:28:48When we moved house, they went on her bedroom walls but she wasn't impressed.
0:28:48 > 0:28:54That's mean of your mum to put them there, isn't it? Inconsiderate.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58Well, I think you'll get a profit from your ?5. Lovely. Yes.
0:28:58 > 0:29:06I think we can put them in quite easily at ?200 to ?300. They're great. That would be jolly nice.
0:29:06 > 0:29:13I'm pleased you say that, because I think they're wonderful things, and when lit, they'd look fantastic.
0:29:13 > 0:29:17They look wonderful, but I haven't got the setting for them now.
0:29:17 > 0:29:22It'd be nice if they were somewhere where they could really be shown off.
0:29:22 > 0:29:30What else have you brought? The other thing I brought was this, just a novelty thing stuck in a corner.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34It's a Victorian garden day bed, I think.
0:29:34 > 0:29:39Mm-hm. I think that's what we should call it. Something like that.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42It's quite a nice wide size.
0:29:42 > 0:29:47Good brass legs and nice original casters. Mm-hm.
0:29:47 > 0:29:51How much did you pay for this? I paid ?13 for that.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54?13? Yes, again 16 years ago.
0:29:54 > 0:30:00I think that's reasonable. How much do you reckon it's increased? I'll put you on the spot.
0:30:00 > 0:30:0720 quid? I think a bit more, actually. Up to about ?80 to ?100, but it might do a lot better.
0:30:07 > 0:30:11Mm-hm. When we sell these things for you,
0:30:11 > 0:30:16what will you do with the money? Will you split it with Briony? Yeah.
0:30:16 > 0:30:23Well...I get disowned regularly by my daughter cos I love car boot sales and jumble sales and skips.
0:30:23 > 0:30:28So it depends how much she sweet-talks me, really.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34D'you want to sell this? Yes. You're definite in that? Yes.
0:30:34 > 0:30:38Yet your husband bought it. For himself. For himself? Yeah. OK.
0:30:38 > 0:30:45What about you, sir? Do you want to sell this? Well...in a way, yes. I think we've had it long enough.
0:30:45 > 0:30:50Where did you get this from? In an antique shop.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53For how much? ?20. ?20.
0:30:53 > 0:30:57That was a good buy. How many years ago? 22 years ago.
0:30:57 > 0:31:0222 years ago, right. This is a very nice piece. You know it's Belleek?
0:31:02 > 0:31:09Yes. The mark on the bottom, which is that black mark there, is pre-1900,
0:31:09 > 0:31:11but after after 1891.
0:31:11 > 0:31:16So it's latter part of the 19th century. Very good porcelain.
0:31:16 > 0:31:22We've some other pieces. You know, the one with a fretwork bowl. We daren't touch it.
0:31:22 > 0:31:29This is extraordinary. Belleek normally comes in ornamental wares, rarely for use, cabinet display,
0:31:29 > 0:31:33but this piece was made to hold a pot. Yeah.
0:31:33 > 0:31:39What I find extraordinary is all the detail round the rim,
0:31:39 > 0:31:43these heavily embossed and raised flowers.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48They are incredible! How do you keep this clean?
0:31:48 > 0:31:52Soapy water, toothbrush and a hairdryer.
0:31:52 > 0:31:56No wonder you want to sell it. Did you offer to help? I won't touch it.
0:31:56 > 0:32:00I think you were very brave, madam. I'd leave it.
0:32:00 > 0:32:06My only reservation with this - if it were perfect, we'd be looking at well over ?1,000.
0:32:06 > 0:32:12But it's not. There's a crack inside that you can see.
0:32:12 > 0:32:17You can see a star crack on the bottom. This will affect its value.
0:32:17 > 0:32:21We do not normally take in cracked items.
0:32:21 > 0:32:26Mmm. But it's such a beautiful piece of Belleek
0:32:26 > 0:32:32that a collector might say, "I'll never afford a perfect one, but I can afford this."
0:32:32 > 0:32:39So it's a collector's piece. And you only need two people in the auction room. Mm-hm.
0:32:39 > 0:32:46I would project a price of about 150 to 250 and hope that it goes for more.
0:32:46 > 0:32:52We've got to put a reasonable price to attract buyers. If you put ?500 on it... Won't sell. No.
0:32:52 > 0:32:59So if we take it in for sale, you'd be happy at that figure? It's got to have a reserve on it.
0:32:59 > 0:33:04It will. We wouldn't take anything in without a reserve.
0:33:06 > 0:33:13You've brought something which I particularly like, because I could still use it on the breakfast table.
0:33:13 > 0:33:18It's a honey pot, designed, as you know, by Clarice Cliff. Yes.
0:33:18 > 0:33:22Instantly recognisable because of these crocuses.
0:33:22 > 0:33:26Thankfully, no yellow and green, but orange, purple and blue.
0:33:26 > 0:33:33That makes it more appealing. You have designs like fantasy landscapes, cottage designs,
0:33:33 > 0:33:38chrysanthemums, all applied to this basic shape, and all hand painted.
0:33:38 > 0:33:43She had ladies who decorated these pieces. I like the fact
0:33:43 > 0:33:48that the finial on the lid is still complete.
0:33:48 > 0:33:52Is it the first bit to go normally? Yes, it's easily knocked off.
0:33:52 > 0:33:59I've got to look very carefully to see if there's any damage, and there's not.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03No chips, no breaks, it's in remarkably good condition.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07It looks so fresh. It's never been used, has it? No.
0:34:07 > 0:34:13It's been in a sideboard, and that's where it stayed. How long? I don't know. Quite a long time.
0:34:13 > 0:34:19Where did it come from? My mother. She's 84 now. How did she get it?
0:34:19 > 0:34:24Um, I think my uncle gave it to her as a wedding present. That's super!
0:34:24 > 0:34:30Will she mind you selling it? No, I'll give her the money. A lovely thought!
0:34:30 > 0:34:36It's quite a valuable bit of pottery. The mark's on the bottom for the Newport Company.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39So it's fairly late in the 1930s.
0:34:39 > 0:34:43Price range, I'd like to see it go for between 80 and 150.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46Mm-hm. Probably hovering around 120.
0:34:46 > 0:34:51So I'd be comfortable if we put a reserve of ?100 on it. Ooh!
0:34:51 > 0:34:55Would you be happy? Yes. Right, let's hope it goes for about ?100.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59We'll put this up for sale at Bearne's at Exeter.
0:34:59 > 0:35:03I'm sure they'll get a good price for us.
0:35:05 > 0:35:12While David and Thomas have seen a myriad of antiques in Torquay and met some wonderful characters,
0:35:12 > 0:35:16let's see what the rest of the owners have decided to sell.
0:35:19 > 0:35:25Peter and Joyce will make a profit on the biscuit barrel bought for ?1.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27But the question is - how much?
0:35:27 > 0:35:30Hazel's mum never used her honey pot.
0:35:30 > 0:35:34Let's hope it causes a buzz at auction.
0:35:34 > 0:35:39I hope someone rescues Marian and buys the Belleek jardiniere,
0:35:39 > 0:35:42although Derek won't be too happy.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Karen loves her wall lights and day bed,
0:35:45 > 0:35:48but Briony never wants to see them again,
0:35:48 > 0:35:52so let's hope they sell for the sake of the family.
0:35:57 > 0:36:02We're about to see the last few lots go under the hammer.
0:36:02 > 0:36:08But they'll only do well if our auctioneer is behind them. Let's see what he thinks.
0:36:08 > 0:36:13We've got four art deco uplighters which Karen and Briony brought in.
0:36:13 > 0:36:17Our valuation experts put ?200-?300 on the lot.
0:36:17 > 0:36:22I think that's a fairly safe estimate. 50 quid a light, really.
0:36:22 > 0:36:30They're a standard example of a period light fitting. Nothing to write home about. No.
0:36:30 > 0:36:37Diffused frosted lighting. But in a narrow hallway, they'd look good, four in a row, petrol-blue wall,
0:36:37 > 0:36:42a bit of gold there. Just doing my Laurence bit. You need the cuffs.
0:36:42 > 0:36:47Get a light bulb in them and they'll look different.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51They look lifeless on the table. So we're nearly... Yeah.
0:36:51 > 0:36:59Karen also brought in this day bed. Whoever buys it has got to get rid of those, cos they stink.
0:36:59 > 0:37:06I think it's cheaper than buying a teak one. And it adds a touch of class to your conservatory.
0:37:06 > 0:37:12What you could buy for brand new... It is good value. We're looking for ?80 to ?100.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15It should get there. OK.
0:37:15 > 0:37:20Lastly, Joyce's biscuit barrel. Again, Doulton, easy seller.
0:37:20 > 0:37:28People like the golfing cartoons. Plenty of people in the market for that. Should make 200, maybe more.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32It'll walk it, then. She paid a quid in a car boot.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35Makes you sick. I should go to more car boot sales.
0:37:35 > 0:37:42Some of our owners can't wait to get going, but others are less optimistic.
0:37:42 > 0:37:47Karen, how are you feeling? A bit nervous, but excited too.
0:37:47 > 0:37:53I don't think you should be nervous because your two quality items should hopefully sell well. Good.
0:37:53 > 0:37:59Briony, what do you think of this? A day off school? Boring. Boring?!
0:37:59 > 0:38:02You don't like antiques? No.
0:38:02 > 0:38:07I'd love to take home that day bed, but I'm not allowed to.
0:38:07 > 0:38:10I want to find something I like.
0:38:10 > 0:38:17This has caught my eye. It's only a general sale and it's two sales a month, so we won't get much quality.
0:38:17 > 0:38:23But this is a nice piece of country furniture. It's catalogued as a butcher's cutting block.
0:38:23 > 0:38:30Looking at it, I don't think it is. It's got a lovely slab on top, but the feet are tenon through the top.
0:38:30 > 0:38:35That's not right for a butcher's block - too hard to clean blood off.
0:38:35 > 0:38:41There's no evidence it's been chopped. I don't know what it's made for, but I'm going to bid.
0:38:41 > 0:38:45There's no reserve, so it's worth going for.
0:38:45 > 0:38:51My lot is later, but first, Hazel's honey pot goes under the hammer.
0:38:52 > 0:38:58How are you feeling, Hazel? Fine. Nervous. Are you really? I am.
0:38:58 > 0:39:04This is a surprise for your mum, isn't it? Yes, she won't know until it goes on the telly.
0:39:04 > 0:39:09What comes out of today, she'll get. You're going to spend the money?
0:39:09 > 0:39:14Yeah, I'll let her have a day out down the coast. Aw! That's nice!
0:39:14 > 0:39:19Now she can't travel much, it'll be a surprise. How old's Mum? 84.
0:39:19 > 0:39:25That's a great age, isn't it? It's a lovely honey pot, isn't it?
0:39:25 > 0:39:30I like the way the bee finial's tucked on the side of the lid. Yes.
0:39:30 > 0:39:36It's bold colouring and not just the conventional crocus pattern, but purple and blue as well. Yes.
0:39:36 > 0:39:43It's nice to see Clarice Cliff that's not yellow or green. Yes. And it's in perfect condition.
0:39:43 > 0:39:49I love the aperture for the bees to go through. Yes. Did you use it? No, not as far as I know.
0:39:49 > 0:39:56It was always in a cabinet? Yes, in a sideboard. It'll probably end up in a cabinet as well. Probably!
0:39:58 > 0:40:02Number of commission bids very close together. With me at ?100.
0:40:02 > 0:40:06And 10, anywhere? It's here at ?100.
0:40:06 > 0:40:11There's a fight going on. Yeah. The book is out. ?110 in the doorway.
0:40:11 > 0:40:16And 20 anywhere? It's in the doorway, 110. And 20, will you?
0:40:16 > 0:40:20Dig deep. Yeah, dig deep, that's right. 120. ..130. ..140. ..150?
0:40:20 > 0:40:24160? No, it's in the doorway still at ?150.
0:40:24 > 0:40:28If you're all finished, we sell at ?150.
0:40:29 > 0:40:35There! Lovely! Excellent! You were bang on. Yes, you were good.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37Congratulations. Thank you, madam.
0:40:37 > 0:40:45He's been like that today so far. Got one dead right. I'm so pleased for you. Thank you very much.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47Have a great day out in Worthing.
0:40:50 > 0:40:55Karen, coming close to the lot number now, how are you feeling?
0:40:55 > 0:40:58Very sort of on edge at the moment.
0:40:58 > 0:41:03Briony's taken you off shopping. Yes. Have you bought anything nice?
0:41:03 > 0:41:07Listen. Oh, this is our day bed. Oh.
0:41:07 > 0:41:11At ?60. ?60, and five, will you?
0:41:11 > 0:41:14Doorway bidder at 65. And 70, do I see?
0:41:14 > 0:41:19In the doorway at 65. And 70, do I see?
0:41:19 > 0:41:24If you're all done, we're selling, make no mistake, at ?65.
0:41:24 > 0:41:29Yeah, brilliant. He's waived the commission. You get the same anyway.
0:41:29 > 0:41:33Right, OK. That was quick. Short and sweet.
0:41:33 > 0:41:38Big smile from Briony? Shopping now. Has she still got a strop on?
0:41:39 > 0:41:42We bought a record, didn't we? Yeah.
0:41:48 > 0:41:56When you buy at auction, first you register at reception. Fill in your details and you get a bidding card
0:41:56 > 0:42:00or a paddle, like this. You hold it up and wave when you want to bid.
0:42:00 > 0:42:05This ensures you get the bid and no-one can go home with it.
0:42:05 > 0:42:11I'm going to bid soon for that oak "chopping block". So I'm going to use my paddle.
0:42:11 > 0:42:16Lot 1001, an oak butcher's block on splay legs.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19Thank you very much. Someone start me 20.
0:42:19 > 0:42:2520, I have. And two anywhere? 20, I have. And two, will you?
0:42:25 > 0:42:29I'm looking for two. ..22, thank you. And five, madam. ..28. ..30.
0:42:29 > 0:42:3432. ..35? Gentleman's bid, then, at ?32.
0:42:34 > 0:42:38If you're all done, we're selling at ?32.
0:42:38 > 0:42:45?32 - a bargain! So it pays to go to general auctions sometimes, not specialist auctions.
0:42:45 > 0:42:49At an oak auction, it would have cost ?80. So I'm pleased.
0:42:49 > 0:42:54I did well. Let's hope my luck rubs off on Karen for her wall lights.
0:42:56 > 0:43:00I love these, they're great... I do as well.
0:43:00 > 0:43:07If you had a rich, deep-hued colour on the wall, like petrol blue, with those on it in a long line...
0:43:07 > 0:43:11Yes, just on one wall. Not convinced, Briony?
0:43:11 > 0:43:16No. Smile to the camera. I bet your smile could light the world up.
0:43:16 > 0:43:22Completely wrong! Briony, ignore him. He's been like this all day.
0:43:23 > 0:43:29You're lovely, Briony. She's up for adoption if anyone's interested.
0:43:29 > 0:43:35Right, here we go. Right. We need to get some money back. Yeah.
0:43:35 > 0:43:40Interest here. Commission bid with me at ?130. Nice decorative items.
0:43:40 > 0:43:43It's here at ?130. And 40, will you?
0:43:43 > 0:43:47Come on, we need 190. It's here at 130. And 140, will you?
0:43:47 > 0:43:53If you're all done, it's with me and it stays at ?130.
0:43:53 > 0:43:56Aw! Gutted(!) Gutted?
0:43:56 > 0:44:01We all are. I'm really surprised at that. So am I.
0:44:01 > 0:44:06Wrong sort of auction for them. It is. End of story.
0:44:06 > 0:44:11Just have to find an auction with specialist deco or lighting sales.
0:44:11 > 0:44:14It's just taste and discrimination.
0:44:14 > 0:44:21It's arbitrary. No-one here wanted those lights, but they're worth ?50 of anybody's money. I think so.
0:44:21 > 0:44:26Briony's got a big smile on her face. It's like, "Told you so!"
0:44:37 > 0:44:43Now, you do not like your jardiniere you're selling. I don't like it, he likes it.
0:44:43 > 0:44:46But you have to clean it. Yes.
0:44:46 > 0:44:49It's an interesting piece. Yes.
0:44:49 > 0:44:55It's the sort a collector on modest means will buy because it's a nice example.
0:44:55 > 0:45:01It's cracked. I advise collectors not to buy anything cracked, but this is so attractive
0:45:01 > 0:45:04that I think it'll find a good home.
0:45:04 > 0:45:10Lot 204, a Belleek porcelain jardiniere with peaked rim.
0:45:10 > 0:45:16It's had a few knocks unfortunately. Nonetheless, some interest. ?75.
0:45:16 > 0:45:1885. ..95.
0:45:18 > 0:45:21100. And ten? ..120.
0:45:21 > 0:45:26130. ..140. Seated bidder at 140. And 50? ..160.
0:45:26 > 0:45:29170. ..180. ..190.
0:45:29 > 0:45:31200. ..210?
0:45:31 > 0:45:35No? Seated left at ?200. 210, do I see?
0:45:35 > 0:45:39All done, then? We're selling at ?200.
0:45:39 > 0:45:45Brilliant! Great! Excellent, isn't it? 200, that's wonderful.
0:45:45 > 0:45:52I'm pleased for you. If it didn't have the crack, what would it have realised? Probably as much as 800.
0:45:52 > 0:45:56?800. Yeah. Did you put the crack in it? No.
0:45:56 > 0:46:03It was like that? It was bought like that. It's late 19th century, early 20th century, an early example,
0:46:03 > 0:46:10but a beautiful piece. If you like that sort of thing. The epitome of that period, all the rich detail.
0:46:10 > 0:46:14Thanks very much. Thank you. Congratulations. Thank you.
0:46:14 > 0:46:20No more cleaning! Regardless of what he said, go and spend it. YOU wanted us to sell it!
0:46:20 > 0:46:27Take her for a meal. Definitely. We'll have to find somewhere to have a sandwich, then. Oh!
0:46:31 > 0:46:35It's a shame Joyce can't be here. She's stuck in traffic.
0:46:35 > 0:46:40It's just coming up for sale as well. Yeah. Here we go.
0:46:40 > 0:46:45Pretty piece, this. And the bid's with me at ?85. 90 anywhere?
0:46:45 > 0:46:4895. ..100. And 10? ..120.
0:46:48 > 0:46:51130. ..140. ..150.
0:46:51 > 0:46:56And 60, sir. The book's out. Yours at 160. ..170. ..180. ..190. ..200.
0:46:56 > 0:46:59We've sold this. 210. ..220. ..230.
0:46:59 > 0:47:03240. ..250. ..260. ..270.
0:47:03 > 0:47:06280. ..290. ..300.
0:47:06 > 0:47:10320. ..340. ..360? ..No, in the corner at ?340.
0:47:10 > 0:47:15It's immaculate. 360. There's someone else. 380. ..400. ..420.
0:47:15 > 0:47:19440? ..No, it's in the corner still at ?420.
0:47:19 > 0:47:21And 40, new place. ..460.
0:47:21 > 0:47:24480? ..Against you, then.
0:47:24 > 0:47:28It's in the corner at ?460.
0:47:28 > 0:47:30It's brilliant! Wonderful!
0:47:30 > 0:47:34New place at 480. ..500.
0:47:34 > 0:47:37I don't believe it. 520.
0:47:37 > 0:47:40540. ..560...
0:47:40 > 0:47:44I wish she could be here to see it. Yes. She bought this for ?1. At...?
0:47:44 > 0:47:50A car boot. Car boot sale. A pound! And only a few weeks ago. 660.
0:47:50 > 0:47:53680. I don't believe this.
0:47:53 > 0:47:56700. It's mental money, isn't it?
0:47:56 > 0:48:01I suppose it's the golfers. 740. ..760.
0:48:01 > 0:48:04760! 780. ..800.
0:48:04 > 0:48:07And 20. ..840.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09860.
0:48:09 > 0:48:14880. It's a marvellous price. It almost sets a record.
0:48:14 > 0:48:17900. ..920. ..940.
0:48:17 > 0:48:19960.
0:48:21 > 0:48:23980. ..1,000.
0:48:25 > 0:48:31Oh, this is so good! This is the excitement of auction, isn't it?
0:48:31 > 0:48:36And 50. It's against you, sir. It's in the doorway at ?1,100. ..And 50?
0:48:36 > 0:48:43You can feel the tension. It's selling in the doorway at ?1,100.
0:48:43 > 0:48:46BANG! Sold, ?1,100! Well done!
0:48:48 > 0:48:53That was brilliant! We must ring her up. We've got to celebrate!
0:48:54 > 0:48:57That is brilliant. Dear, oh, dear!
0:48:58 > 0:49:02Well, another roller-coaster ride at the auction.
0:49:02 > 0:49:06Family conflict when Derek and Marian sold a Belleek jardiniere.
0:49:06 > 0:49:11I'm absolutely delighted that it's gone. It doesn't bother me.
0:49:11 > 0:49:16It doesn't bother me one bit. That's it.
0:49:16 > 0:49:20I don't think Karen and Briony felt the same way about their fortunes.
0:49:20 > 0:49:27I don't really care. But it'd be nice to get more money to go out...shopping. Shopping.
0:49:29 > 0:49:35David's album of crime didn't sell, but he's looking on the bright side.
0:49:35 > 0:49:41I'm a bit down, but still pleased it's with the family, and who knows what'll happen in the future?
0:49:41 > 0:49:49But the big surprise of the day was Joyce's biscuit barrel. She only paid ?1 for it at a car boot sale,
0:49:49 > 0:49:52but it made over ?1,000. I couldn't wait to tell her.
0:49:52 > 0:49:59It did sell. Yeah. Your Doulton biscuit barrel, what do you think it sold for? What would you...?
0:49:59 > 0:50:03About a couple of hundred. That's what David valued it at.
0:50:03 > 0:50:08Yeah, about two to three. It went for 1,100. You're joking!
0:50:08 > 0:50:14No, I'm not. It was ?1,100. I don't believe you. I'm not winding you up.
0:50:14 > 0:50:19I don't believe you. And we're filming this conversation. Are you?
0:50:19 > 0:50:21SHE LAUGHS
0:50:24 > 0:50:29It's been a great day in Exeter. See you next time on Flog It!
