The first season had a wide variety of items presented to the dealers, including a restored gas pump, Native American artifacts, a collection of autographed footballs, an electroshock therapy unit, antique bicycles, a woolly mammoth tooth, comic books, a 1960's MK II Lincoln and a brass spitoon from a Nevada mine and brothel. Some sellers took the cash offers, others opted to roll the dice and go to auction. Many of the sellers ended up with a much smaller auction price, while others sold their items for a little to a lot more than the dealers' offer. |

Real Deal is a US Television show aired on the History Channel, premiering in December, 2011. The show brings together sellers of antiques, collectables and historical artifacts with professional buyers.[1] It follows the "sellers" who try to pitch their items to the "dealers". The dealers will offer an amount after a brief evaluation of the item, based on their professional evaluation and years of experience. After debating on the price, the seller can accept the cash offer, or choose to go to auction and potentially lose money or exceed the dealer's offer.
