Just got finished watching the show. If you did'nt see it you did'nt mess anything. A case with bullets and 2 solid shots with 1 large Parott.
I was expecting more. Thats TV. They did have a 1913 sword pistol that was interesting.

I was pleasantly surprised. While the relics were not much to look at other than the big Parrott, the commentary was not filled with BS and the offer was a fair one considering the retail resale value of the stuff.
Usually I have found that segments on these types of shows contain erroneous information and outright Hollywood puffery. The shows all sound similar and need a new line other than, "its going to sit in my inventory for a long time." I noticed they too used that line on the sword pistol!
I would've made a play for just the Parrott though as a counter. Instead of the $500 he wanted for everything, they could've given him up to $200 for just the one piece and done well.
