    I only watch your channel from time to time but what I really love is that you're extremely patient, knowledgeable, and professional dealing with your customers! I've been a bartender for 40 years and people always say to me, "man, how do you do it? How do you deal with all of these idiots?" All I can say is that you and I have very similar styles. Always being respectful, always being aware of your environment, being assertive without being agressive or confrontational, and extreme patience usually helps keep me and my staff safe.

      @@halosrustythat’s not true actually. It’s happened many times someone has sold something for a low price, like a work of art. If it can be proven that the buyer knew it was worth more than what was paid you can be sued. Happens with art a lot, example you pay $100 for a million dollar painting

When the interest rate is north of 20% and they routinely low-ball people to turn around and double, triple, or quadruple their profit, I'd say that's dubious at best, a scam at worst.

      Sorry to be one of 'those people' but really doesn't in reality. Hitler was a passionate animal lover, a vegetarian and had a dog he adored. There's videos of him petting and cuddling with his dog. A simple care for animals does not automatically mean a great person. In fact, studies show that an over the top sense of care for animals is a common sociopath trait. A large percentage of sociopaths were found to have an odd fixation on animal care.

      So honestly, he's asking a pretty fair price for it. It looks like it's a Made in Japan "Vintage 57" which can easily go for 2k USD in good shape. Hard to tell the condition and the year would matter a bit, but yeah. $1300 definitely isn't unreasonable, at all.
