And so I stayed there for a while.
And I was living out in Ossining, and, uh, around a... ...open-air market, and the temperature dropped, so I bought a fur coat.
And, um, walking around the market a while later, feeling inside the pockets and inside the liner, I find this thing.
APPRAISER: This is a very, very, very Art Deco match safe.
Now, I know you know this, but it's Cartier.
GUEST: Yes, it is.
APPRAISER: It's signed "Cartier, Paris, London, New York."
GUEST: Yeah.
APPRAISER: That's like a trifecta-- that's just excellent.
When we close it, you see there's a little click here.
(box clicks) And you have some little rose-cut diamonds.
Just always that extra, extra touch.
But what I love is this pinstriping, black and white, a lot of high-contrast enamel, with the little chevrons in between it.
And there's not one chip on this.
How much did you pay for the fur coat?
GUEST: $50, if.
APPRAISER: Now, I, I know at one time, you told me, somebody offered you money for this.
GUEST: $2,000 a couple years ago.
APPRAISER: To, to replace this, today, I'm gonna double that price.
$4,000 to replace it today.
GUEST: Just $4,000?
You said, and, good, but come on.
APPRAISER: She's wants me-- she's pushing me up.
(all laughing) She's bargaining with me-- nobody does that!
GUEST: (laughs)
