The problem is most people who walk in to the shop don't really know how to haggle with Rick and the others properly, and thus they end up getting much less than they should.
The Old Man is far harsher than Rick when it comes to haggling, too. It's kind of funny.
My favorite guy will always be the one who had the room full of Transformers stuff, which he valued at $20,000. Rick was kind of "Ehhhhh..." at that, so he called an expert in. The expert's opinion? The stuff was worth at least $20,000. I loled. Dude ended up keeping his stuff cause Rick only offered like $8000 and he figured it could go for more somewhere else.
To be fair, Rick was making a reasonably fair offer. As has been said many times(and there as well) buying collections is massively expensive; they take up lots of space, tons of hours to catalogue it all, and can be hell to sell since you have to do them individually.
