It’s like Antiques Road Show meets The Gong Show.
There’s a television program in China where people bring their valued collectibles to be publicly appraised. Okay, that part sounds familiar, but here’s where it gets good.
The art experts on Collecting Everything Under Heaven examine the items on the air, and if they decide that one is a knock-off, they just smash it right there. Turns out, that happens a lot.
So, you walk in with your “priceless” collectible Qing Dynasty vase, and you walk out with a Baggie full of splinters, plus maybe a home version of the game. Hey, thanks for playing! Kitty Bu video report, and story:
