Schadenfruede

I am really into the show Pawn Stars on the History Channel.  For those of you who haven't seen it, it is basically   The Antiques Roadshow with more shaved heads, tattoos, morbid obesity.  People bring in their stuff, it is appraised and sometimes a deal is reached.  Maybe it is the German in me, but my favorite part of both shows is when someone brings in something that he thinks is incredibly valuable and then an expert tells the owner that because of something that he did, it is completely worthless.  The look on their faces is more valuable than anything anyone has ever brought into the shop.
