A&E's show about five people that go to storage auctions looking for buried treasure to sell for for money, sometimes finding extremely rare items that cost small fortunes. My dad got me hooked a couple months ago and I've been enjoying it ever since, I have been wanting to make a topic here but the idea kept slipping my mind until now. My favorite character is Darrel the gambler, "This here's the wild factor!", my sister's favorite character is Barry the collector, and my parents' favorites are Jarrod and Brandi. Of course you have to mention Dave and for those that don't watch the show this is pretty much him in a nutshell at the auctions:

I watched the episode where Mark found an original model NES and thought it was worth $13,000. That was kind of funny.

He thought it was worth that much because of this:

I got a kick out of it.

There's another show like this just following two guys as a team, I think it's on Spike. Not bad, basically just a variation of American Pickers. If it's on and I'm not looking for anything in particular I won't change the channel.

I love shows like this. They're a great way of killing time when you can't think of anything better to do.

yeah, he should have read that story more thoroughly re: Stadium Events

however, Mark could have still made major bank had that console been New-in-the-Box (check out these prices!!)

it would be funny if one of these folks came across a game like Air Raid or Nintendo Campus Challenge

It's not that hard, you just need to know where to ask about it.
