‘Bares für Rares’ Week Delivers Big Wins, Walkouts and a Shortened Thursday Broadcast

Recent episodes underscored the gap between expert appraisals and dealer risk pricing, with legal hurdles or weak demand steering outcomes.

Overview

  • ZDF cut Thursday’s installment for live athletics, airing a 30‑minute ‘Lieblingsstücke’ repeat instead of a full new episode.
  • A Franz Richard Underberger seascape from 1870 sold for €11,000 to Julian Schmitz‑Avila, exceeding a €6,000–€8,000 estimate.
  • A c.1727–1737 Breslau silver beer humpen with fire‑gilded interior went to Fabian Kahl for €3,000 against a €3,000–€3,500 valuation.
  • A 1808–1819 poetry album identified by Annika Raßbach achieved €300 from Wolfgang Pauritsch, matching the expert’s lower bound.
  • Legal limits and seller choices shaped outcomes, including a crocodile‑strap watch selling for €1,450 after strap removal, teen cousins declining about €3,300 for a ring, and a vintage lighting set exiting unsold after a glass element broke during setup.
