the issue with antiques roadshow doing a compilation episode w/ stuff that the appraisers have never seen before is that all the appraisal estimates are true guesses! bc you can barely imagine the market for something you've never seen! so we're really just throwing spaghetti at the wall here

oh my GOD. there's a woman on antiques roadshow rn claiming that josef von sternberg gave her aunt & uncle a beautiful pocket watch bc of how well they handled his dry cleaning which COULD be true, but i would swear on betsy ross' numerous graves that actually they had a threesome with von sternberg
