A “Cash for Rares” seller wanted to make big money with an 80-euro flea market find – that didn’t go down well with the dealers.
They sent the greedy lady home.
Pulheim – Most sellers at “Cash for Rares” go home with a smile and lots of money.
It could also be the same for Aynur Patan - after all, her flea market find for just 80 euros is valued at several thousand euros.
But she cannot come to an agreement with the dealers and is sent home with the antique.
“I can hardly believe it”: “Cash for Rares” expert surprised by the cheap purchase price
Saleswoman Aynur Patan marches into the “Bares für Rares” studio in Pulheim with her friend Simone Bödicker – an elegant, golden piece of jewelry in her luggage.
Expert Dr.
Heide Rezepa-Zabel (58) is completely surprised when the Hamburg woman reveals: "I got this from the flea market - I bargained for 80 euros, but I thought it looked like gold." Upon closer inspection, it quickly becomes clear : The gold piece is actually worth much more than 80 euros.
“I can hardly believe it,” says the art historian.
The expertise is therefore: 3,800 to 4,000 euros.
But is this price okay for the seller?
After all, a clear rule applies to “Cash for Rares”.
Only those who want to get rid of their rarity for the estimated sum are given permission by moderator Horst Lichter (61) to go into the dealer's room.
With the aim of negotiating something more, the friends walk on with the dealer card.
After all, it is not uncommon for “cash for rares” pieces to fetch 26 times as much in the dealer’s room.
The highest bid to date in “Cash for Rares”
Jewelry expert Susanne Steiger has so far offered the highest bid for an exhibit in the ZDF broadcast.
In the special “Cash for Rares” evening edition of July 12, 2018, a Mercedes-Benz Cabriolet 190 SL from 1961 in the color red was offered.
This sports car model was produced between 1955 and 1963.
Steiger offered a whopping 90,000 euros.
However, the seller refused because he didn't want to sell his classic car for less than 100,000 euros.

Outrageous asking prices?
Dealers throw out the “Cash for Rares” saleswoman
The dealers are quite enthusiastic about the magnificent bracelet - and are keen to know how much Aynur bought the piece for.
But the seller doesn't want to reveal that at first and would rather wait for the bids.
No wonder that if there is a lot of interest, the first bid is quite high.
But at 3,600 euros the dealers stop - no one wants to spend more on the bracelet.

For Aynur, that's not enough. Although the estimate starts at 3,800 euros, it does not want to sell for less than 4,000 euros. When she then reveals that she only paid 80 euros, the dealers are visibly shocked. “You have culture, girl. “That’s what I call a house number,” exclaims Walter Lehnertz (56). Christian Vechtel (48), who was happy to purchase the piece, sends the seller home straight away: “Then we would stop here now and we will bring it to you afterwards.”

But what does Aylin do with the bracelet now?
There is no real plan.
“It will lie around at home for a while and maybe be sold elsewhere and if not, it will become an heirloom,” she explains to the dealers after the bankruptcy.
Another five-euro flea market find even brought a seller almost 30,000 euros.
