DePorter shows Lisa some of his one-of-a-kind sports collectibles like the basketball hoop where Michael Jordan hit his last shot to win his 6th NBA championship, He also has the cursed Cubs ball that some say, cost the Cubs the chance to go to the 2003 World Series. Grant subsequently destroyed that ball and proudly displays its carnage in his museum. Our expert today is Scott who deals and collects sports memorabilia himself. He'll check out Grant's museum, appraise Grant's championship-like collection and try making a trade with him. But Grant better stay on his toes. Scott's going for the jugular, offering our collector an item from his favorite movie, but in exchange, Scott wants one of Grant's museum pieces that'll be almost impossible to replace.

    #7 - Linda Guillory: Video Games

    S4:E10

    You might say Linda Guillory is hooked on video games. Obsessed with them as a kid, Linda played and usually beat everyone she competed against. As an adult, she found and bought all of her childhood games and then added some more, for good measure. She currently holds two Guinness World Records for her voluminous vintage video game collection, and even became an engineer so she could figure out how they work. Linda's collection began with her Coleco Pac-Man, but she is no less passionate about Zelda and her entire set of Mattel handheld games. Linda's sister Cynthia joins us today and can attest to how competitive her sister is, while our expert, Patrick Scott Patterson, who's made a career out of video games will be forced to evaluate her entire collection, and then see if he can come up with a video game she doesn't already have so that they can possibly make a trade. Good luck with that, Scott.

    From her childhood, watching The Sonny and Cher Show, Robyn Fisher blossomed into a superfan, with a sprawling collection of memorabilia that covers the diva’s entire career. Joining Robyn is her daughter Marina, who’s grown up alongside the collection, and show-business appraiser Marcia Tysseling, who once handled consignment items for Cher herself (and in fact sold Robyn many items in her collection). Marcia now sets a total value on everything Robyn’s collected – including such treasures as the iconic mermaid tail from Mermaids and a pair of dazzling concert-worn earrings by legendary designer Bob Mackie. Marcia then tries to tempt Robyn into a three-for-one trade for a Sonny and Cher Show rarity that makes her long to sing, “I’ve Got You, Babe.”

    S5:E5

    There are Star Wars collections, and then there is Gus Lopez's out-of-this-world, Star Wars collection. A fan of the space opera since he was a kid, Gus doesn't just collect the obvious, Han Solo's screen-used jacket, one-of-a-kind prototypes, C-3PO's body parts, but there's also the ultimate weapon, you know the one, THE DEATH STAR! So with a collection like that, we had to call Rob Klein, an archivist, pop culture expert and huge Star Wars fan himself, to walk Lisa through this incredible collection and try putting a value on all of Gus's prized possessions. Then, Rob attempts to make a trade with Gus, by bringing him a special Star Wars collectible that may not be familiar to every Star Wars fan, but in exchange, our expert wants something that reminds him of some quality time he and his Dad shared a long time ago.
