Great interview and great opportunity!
You had asked about items that people had found in thrifts, it seems I can recall a man who founda silver trophy at a thrift that dated to around turn of the last century and was valued at several thousand dollars. For a dog show manybe?

They had a whole episode that was trash to treasure stuff including thrift store items. I looked quickly at the AR website but I didn't see it. It was one of those episodes they put together when they don't have any new ones to show, clips from random shows with the same theme. I know people have come in with jewelry, rugs and paintings from thrifts that were valuable but I can't remember what else.
