The lifetime collector says he’s ready to make a deal, but is he really? Next, the guys hunt for the perfect showpiece for Shatner’s garden and think they’ve hit the jackpot with an amazing millstone collector.

And finally, the guys scour a 14-bedroom 1890s home and barn that used to belong to a famous opera singer. There’s plenty of old stuff on the sprawling property. But are there any treasures hidden among all the vintage junk? Meanwhile, back at the shop, it’s payback time for Danielle.
