Good.

How are you?

What do we got here?

Because I don't buy black bags.

OK.

And it looks like you're about to do

a magic trick, or something.

No magic trick today.

But bear with me one second, here.

This is a 1978 Triple Crown trophy.

Really?

Yes.

You don't look like the size of a jockey.

No.

I have a 1978 Triple Crown trophy.

Since this is one of the only ones available,

I thought it would be a good investment.

I'm hoping to get $500,000 for the trophy.

How in the world did you get this?

I work with the trainer, for his family.

And so when the opportunity came up,

I went ahead and made the investment.

What horse was it?

The horse was named "Affirmed."

I mean, at one point this was the fastest horse in the world.

Yes.

So the bag says Cartier.

I'm assuming they made it?

Yes, they it.

Doesn't surprise me.

I know Tiffany's makes the Lombardi trophy.

Yes.

This is huge.

This is damn near the equivalent of somebody coming in here

and selling me a Stanley Cup.

Pretty much.

It's kind of--

Only a little more rare.

Yeah.

I mean, it's only happened about,

what, 13 times in history?

You know, it's the Kentucky Derby,

the Preakness, and the Belmont?

Forgive me, I don't really follow horse racing.

But I just-- I know how big this is.

I know how rare this is.

And it happens to be from a sport I really don't

know that much about, so--

what are you looking to get out of it?

$500,000.

And normally when someone asks for $500,000 in here,

I kind of laugh.

I have no idea what it's worth.

You know, this is something you just

don't really ever get an opportunity to look at and buy.

I'm actually shocked that somebody ended up selling it.

Yes.

I'll tell you what, man, I'm going

to have to call a buddy of mine in to take a look at it.

Because if you brought me in the Stanley Cup right now,

I'm going to have a lot of questions.

And to me, that's the equivalent here.

I'll be right back.

Let me give him a call.

OK.

I'm fine with an expert coming in to look at it.

I know it's real.

This way they'll authenticate it,

and I'll get the price that I'm looking for.

Hey Dan.

What's up, man? - Hey, Corey.

How you doing, bud?

- Good to see ya. - Hey.

How you doing? - Hi.

Patrick.

Dude, Triple Crown trophy.

I don't even know where to start.

Unbelievable.

I've actually never seen one.

Wow.

Yeah, this-- I mean, it's the Triple Crown trophy.

This is just incredible.

I mean, it's like having one of the balls

that somebody threw a no hitter with.

Right. Right.

Yeah.

Like, it's not supposed to be in public hands.

Yeah.

Like, this is supposed to be in a museum.

Now, I had a huge question, because I've

made the mistake of buying Grammys, and Oscars,

and stuff before, and you're not allowed to own them.

And I ended up having to give them back.

Is this something that you can even own?

The trainer might have passed away, which in this case,

Laz Barrera passed away in 1991.

Families are able to sell trophies

to help out with bills, and stuff like that.

And this is the first time I've ever seen something

like this in front of me.

I mean, this is-- this is incredible.

OK, so I gotta ask, man--

I mean, I don't know how to put a value on this.

You're right.

It's tough to put a value, as far as comparing

this to other big trophies.

In my career, none of these have ever come out to the market,

to the public.

Comparing other trophies-- you know, what they go for--

this is worth-- $500,000.

I mean, is there a market for it?

The horse racing collectibles market is a small niche,

and there will be someone that will come out eventually,

that's looking for something of this high caliber.

And just needs to have something that no one else has.

OK.

Well, my man, I really appreciate it.

You got it.

Absolutely.

It was nice meeting you.

Nice to meet you, too.

[sigh] So you heard what Dan said.

I might be able to get $500,000 for it.

That's at an auction, with the right buyer,

and I gotta sell it to a guy who wants a trophy he didn't win.

You willing to come down from that number a little bit, or--

I really need to get $500,000 for it.

I'm around 125.

That's pretty far off.

Would you go to 225?

I really need to get five for it.

I think 225 is going to be the most I can do on it.

I really can't go below 500,000.

And I really can't pay more than 225.

I appreciate you coming down, though.

All right.

Thank you.

Unfortunately, he didn't pony up the money

that I was looking for, so we weren't

able to make a deal today.

I really need to make my money back on the investment,

and I'm confident that I can find a buyer that's going

to give me more than that.
