And it looks like they are following the same order as the first run, as today's was episode 7 (Chiller Time).
So if you missed any, just check out my list on post #86 for the order and work out the day it should be on.

It's like in that NYCC episode, he wants "head turner" items to get people into his booth, but those original collectors could be using those premium items to help sell the (bulk) rest of their collections that they now have to sell in other ways.

he does mention for anyone who would like to have there toy on toy hunter to contact the show, so maybe alot of the cherry picked items are ones that people want to sell.

If they're actually looking at selling large portions of their collections, then they're idiots for letting him take just those 1 or 2 things. For some people it's probably more about being on tv for 5minutes anyway.

They should, as you said, take it all to a fair and sell it themselves.

Going to a fair and selling will require effort and a bit of risk. This way they make money for doing next to nothing and getting their 5 minutes of fame to boot. Getting all those calls from people pretty much means he picks what he wants from them, I suspect. A collector like him isn't going to buy bulk small scale items that don't sell big- think there's an understanding of this before he goes in.

Strange, but they stopped replaying them weekdays after that first week. I was wanting to make sure I didn't miss any of them.
