Fabergé Spider Brooch: Yes, Pawn Stars' Rick Really Paid More Than Asking For The Item (What Was It Worth?)

A Fabergé spider brooch appears in an episode of Pawn Stars, and Rick Harrison did the unthinkable — pay more than the customer was asking for. The History Channel reality series Pawn Stars is at its best and most fascinating when the customer approaching Rick has a much different appraisal of their wares than what they're worth in reality. Sadly, Pawn Stars frequently features devastated sellers who learn their treasured family heirloom is not much more than a pile of junk that's been collecting dust on their shelves. While Pawn Stars isn't meant to be tragic, it can get there.
