I wonder if he picks items up from markets around the world for peanuts then goes back to the US & sells them for a small fortune. Like the handwoven baskets from somewhere in Africa. Hmm . . . 🤔
That is exactly what he does, he travel and observe and buy handicrafts from locals, but he is interested in the story behind , the art and the people's culture and found it fascinating and trade made that his job. He is like one of those merchant traders in old times, I understand what he does, he's not stealing from anybody , not a tomb raider whatsover just selling arts and handicrafts from diverse artisans locals worldwide, pieces that people who do not travel and observe cannot see. I do understand his job a lot because I gave the same passion of buying and collecting so many things from street to antique but handcrafted by locals in a country I travel, then I do not sell I bring them at home for decorating😂😁… so many in my bedroom when I was younger hahaha my parents hated all the crazy things that I collect like for what just to much. I have like some Black Africans from Lesotho locals hat, Moroccan shisha, crystal glassware… Persian carpet, Arab dagger, Peruvian puncho, My room looked like a vintage shop. Now I own a handicraft shop myself in my developping country, selling bags, decorating objects made from shell, coconut, stones, nacres even bones from fish or ugly things that washed a shore at sea as much as a lot of seashell , I collect and create and sell diverse object made out of it along with rattan and raffia bags, all handmade. He is kind of doing the same shop in a fancy and rich country selling it to rich people and rich people in Western culture like to treasure and buy everything, they're not interested to buy if everyone owns it or if the price is cheap, it's like a pride for them to buy overpriced goods and rare, unique , so the man understand that world and created a job out of his passion and traveling life. Nice life actually!
I think he does....because his family owns an island. Which tells you....he is a dilettante rich who feeds off the poor and ignorant to satisfy the rich
Pucci is THE CUTEST pup! And that shop is incredible. Cool and unique pieces everywhere you look! The polished West Elm/Crate and Barrel look gets so redundant.
Paying for the shop alone would wipe out that kind of an advantage, and generally you don't get to just declare anything you want as a business expense and not get absolutely rekt by the government.
Nah. Those places have been there forever. Stores like that have increased police patrols, security guards and advanced security systems. Don't be fooled.
Wow, resentful much? How sad that you need to express your misery at someone you don't even know because you can't do the same they can. What a sh*tty attitude.
The host is there to facilitate the interview not ‘be’ the interview. The highlight is the person they are interviewing. He wasn’t asking rude and controversial questions no but merely framing the content by simple questions.
“Money doesn't buy taste, personality, or common decency.” ― Jennifer L. Armentrout. In my opinion Taxidermy is in very poor taste. I question someone's personality or decency who would want to own it.
Taxidermy is part of a rich legacy of both artistic and scientific practices that date back thousands of years. From indigenous cultures that collected feathers for traditional art forms, so the great biological taxidermy collections of universities that built the foundation upon which the study of biology and taxonomy was formed. So much about what we know about the living world is due to taxidermy, and it’s still an essential tool by which we catalogue and preserve the natural world.
taxidermy is super neat and fun if you know where to get it, if the animals are legally and ethically hunted, and if you're supporting a business that isn't mistreating the animals or its workers.
In my opinion, taxidermy is a beautiful preservation of the product of billions of years of refinement and adaptation. Death is a part of life. All things die. I question the personality and decency of anyone so opposed to taxidermy.
@@loopyafterdark I've got a hand carved mammoth tusk cameo necklace, bought from a museum in Murmansk Russia. Roughly 10.000-20.000 years old. So legal. (...and NO, it's no plastic replica. I'm a gemstone collector....) 🙂💎
Reverend Jeremiah Thompson . I was talking about his network of cheap labor artisans that he exploits. Buying stuff from them for a very small fraction and sell it back for a 1000% profit. Don't be so butthurt. Did you buy something there? You probably feel special now...
It's almost as if shipping something across the planet, storing and displaying it in an expensive area, and then having to pay all the associated costs of running a business aren't cheap things to do, and justify enormous markups. It's not like that's not already common in literally the entirety of retail.
He did say "when he was 15" which obviously infers this was several decades ago just by looking at him. No need to be over sensitive. Dude clearly is over 50! 😂😂
@@Brownie8986 no one is over-sensitive here ...I am my country's storyteller ; when the story of my nation is told wrongly its my duty as a patriotic citizen to straighten it out 😇
You are absolutely correct. I'm Tanzanian and I cringed at that ridiculous Blue Jeans story! No one was worried about denim in the 80s in Kenya because many people were wearing suits!
1. Don't call items weird just because they're foreign. That's incredibly rude, and makes you sound incredibly uneducated. 2. This store looks like a crappy version of Deyrolle. If you want to see absolute exquisite taxidermy, and truly fascinating animals, go to Deyrolle. It's one of the coolest shops in the world. Paris doesn't need another branch of this store. They already have Deyrolle.
I for one am definitely not wealth shaming. But I pay for Bloomberg to be a tool I use to manage and increase my wealth. Not for fluff pieces about how other people spend theirs.
So this cat buys a crap load of levi's at the Goodwill and Thrift shops, trades them in other countries for their handmade wares and then brings them back and sells them for high dollar to dolts that have more money then they know what to do with. Got it.
Respected, i am Ramiz , a gold beads manufacturer from india, wants to sell my gold ornaments in whole india & abroad country also, is there any scope ? how can i get help me please
Low key my family has owned an island for 400 years
Alcatraz? No way.
adam wild low key... are you the emperor of Japan? Lol. Idk.
Can I come. I'm very low key
wow 😮
It’s a big ass island too
I walk past this shop all the time, I thought it was a hair dresser lol
mate lol
Right
😂
👏😂
Google the Island his family owns, yes he comes from a bit of money. The Hamptons are expensive but his family owns their own Island off the Hamptons.
...as further evidenced by his 'bro abroad' pics from india
When you have so much wealth, why not relish in the remnants of colonialism for your center piece?
Spot on!
They rotate the items in a small group of families that bid high at auctions.!
I wonder if he picks items up from markets around the world for peanuts then goes back to the US & sells them for a small fortune. Like the handwoven baskets from somewhere in Africa. Hmm . . . 🤔
Nothing wrong with that. We are happy with the jeans 😊
Yup

Love the storefront! Absolutely gorgeous! I could spend hours in a shop like that!

I love shops that are not recognizable at first sight, they wake up my curiosity
This guy does it so he can put his vacations as a business expense and get tax breaks for it. He probably has a trust fund
Paying for the shop alone would wipe out that kind of an advantage, and generally you don't get to just declare anything you want as a business expense and not get absolutely rekt by the government.
seigeengine late reply but you’d be surprised how much you can write off
4:03 those tiny little rug/throw things are priced at $500 :O
Yes, yes PLEASE come to San Francisco!! We have Paxton Gate, which is mostly taxidermy/rocks/natural stuff. You'd be unique, even here in SF...
This show just tells robbers where to rob
Nah. Those places have been there forever. Stores like that have increased police patrols, security guards and advanced security systems. Don't be fooled.
Yes, because robbers are incapable of knowing where expensive stores are. 10/10, you sure have a functioning brain.
Isn't that what all advertisement is? 60 second spots letting burglars know where all the grocery stores are?
try and find a fence for a fuckin turtle shell lmao
That’s really cool when you find your passion!
Usually this kind of antique stores, particularly the very expensive ones, are sort of business shells!
I stopped at "my family sent me to Kenya" "my family is from Long island". Okay, trust fund scanned.
Why are you jealous? His fortune does not substract from your ability to make your own fortune.

Pucci need his/her own show....on Bloomberg!!!
That's amazing. His joy is obvious and catching.
I feel like the host for this show should really change
They're all so bad. Hosts for Vice shows and BuzzFeed and whatever else are the same. They're all just journalists with almost no charisma.
The host is there to facilitate the interview not ‘be’ the interview. The highlight is the person they are interviewing. He wasn’t asking rude and controversial questions no but merely framing the content by simple questions.
@@akyde1552 Yes, they're all soyboys and other millennials who have no conception of traditional fashion
He's honestly way too cringey and corny
@@akyde1552 I agree, he's low rent trying to be high end. Asks the dumbest questions and the intro is always stupid and long.
Love that dog at the beginning...
Me too, had to rewind a few times to see it in detail. Wonder what breed it is.
Fascinating store.
Smart move, selling jeans, for unique pieces! 🏦
Go and find Arammula kannadi, the mirror made from minerals and get polished from it. It show the orginal image

Justice, that is a very well-motivated reason to have taxidermy. - Not so sure how a deer head on a wall fits into it.
In my opinion, taxidermy is a beautiful preservation of the product of billions of years of refinement and adaptation.
Death is a part of life. All things die. I question the personality and decency of anyone so opposed to taxidermy.
You can for sure buy illegal ivory etc. at this shop.
Refilwe Chaba hmmmm possible
If it's old enough, cant it be purchased?
If its dated for before the ban or if it dies of natural causes or humanly due to health reasons, yes you can buy legal ivory.
@@Slevin-Kelevra... or mammoth.

Wise Words, "its not work for me, its just fun"
Haha I like the host, insisting there is a way to smoke gold 😂
That place is like a gallery and museum together 😍
Get it goofy-it’s IN the Bronx, IN Queens. It’s ON the UES, ON the UWS, ON Long Island.
If you open in SF I will definitely spend a lot of time and money at your store.
Pucci is a Pomeranian, the dog at the end is a Bedlington Terrier
That's my aesthetic, and I have gotten almost everything from Ebay.
3:35 “Don’t arrest me!” Then chuckles like j/k, I’m white!
So he's selling overpriced tourist gift shop crap
Oh yeah, definitely, because vintage of items that are hundreds or thousands of years old are just like cheap collectibles that you can buy for $5.

What's that a Crystal Skull???
It’s just a very upscale antique store.
We have a similar store in Portland, OR called Paxton Gate.
Jamie Creel seems like the type of dude that has really amazing and interesting stories that you could just sit and listen to all day.
How about rewatching the video and rehearing the audio after editing?
I would spend hours in this store. 😍
Oh to be born in the .05% so amazing, so talented. BARF. I'm positive he pays his cashiers minimum wage.
Mr. Chiweeni jealous much?
Probably commission, I'm certain the associates need knowledge of the unique things in the store and how to sell them.
Gotta love the bitter and poor. Always come up with some excuse to bitch.
so how much should it be?like ceo wage level?🙄
Great owner of his perfect shop!
Cool shop. Wow.
Can't wait till you open a store in San Francisco
contemporary imperialism and capitalism at its most bourgeoisie moldy...
omg love this
But I love curiosities shops so much
Wow, amazing. I hope Jamie came to Argentina someday to take some bits from here too.
when u travel too much and need actual stuff to prove the travel in the 90's coz they dint have insta stories ..
If you can't put pics on instagram the least you can do is bring back a momento to remind you of your travels
So it's like EVERY curiosity shop but super expensive?
Funny, strange, that Nairobi corollary. So these are the 'blue jeans' of NYC?
reporter FOR Bloomberg....damn, every time with this guy...
3:00 is just history repeating itself
This reminds me of Ab Fab, mark it up and sell it on. More like a self important Pier One, lol....

*Could you PLEASE use synonyms for "fancy".. It's going to turn into a drinking game any time soon!*
The word "fancy" is like "classy." Those that use it, aren't. Either is only okay ironically, and even then, sparingly.
