Shopsmith on Pawn Stars

Post by cincinnati »

EDIT- SHOW ON TONIGHT 7-25-2011




I was reading on another forum that a Shopsmith 10er will be on the show Pawn Starts July 25th. Not sure the source of the original information. Have to keep an eye out for it. Wonder what they will say it's worth.

My guess:

Old man - I remember using these when I was in the navy. These things are classics. So what do you want to do with it - pawn it, sell it, donate it?

seller - I want to sell it

old man - how much do you want for it.

seller - well, I looked and the new ones go for like $4000 dollars, so I was thinking around $2000

old man - I can give you $25

per http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tv/pawn-st ... P01159494:

Face the Music

The business card of the infamous John Wesley Hardin moseys into the shop; Chumlee has a chance to buy a pristine Gibson mandolin; Rick and the old man tool around with a 1950's Shopsmith woodworking machine.

I visited their pawn shop when I was in Vegas last fall. My wife came up to me after we had been inside for a few minutes and said "you aren't going to believe what they have at the rear of the store!" My curiosity aroused, I followed her and found out what she was excited about, a Shopsmith Mark V model 500. It didn't appear to have any standard accessories and was marked at $900. Not a bargain but now I know that my wife is aware of my Shopsmith fervor.

It was still there in February and had a price tag of $1000.

$50...and an incredibly short segment.

Yeah. It wasn't worth much. It ran like hell. I'd pay $50 though.

I did not see the proverbial 'box' of parts and goodies. I sure hope he got one for the $50.
