Fun enough to watch anyway...
Agreed. We stopped in at their IA store during a road trip a few days ago, mostly because its right next to a BP station in LeClaire on the Misssissippi.

I suspect that once you make it onto basic cable, your real business quickly becomes merchandising overpriced and overdesigned hats, t-shirts and coffee mugs. (aka the Teutel Business Plan) That's what about half the "antique" shop floor space was dedicated to. Little else of interest there, but I agree they seem like nice enough guys.

God bless opportunism.
