Subscribe to Our Stories: https://bit.ly/3lzSXhv This fascinating documentary series goes behind-the-scenes with the kings of high-end pawnbroking. Just where do the rich sell their fast cars, fine wines and designer goods when they need money? When it comes to pawning luxurious items, James Constantinou's company, Prestige Pawnbrokers, is the place to go for the upper class wanting fast cash, and it's an empire on the move. Along with his quirky team of experts, James seeks to sort the fakes from the fortune making. It's a crazy world where anything luxurious and sometimes unimaginable has a possible ticket on it. Ranging from incredible jewels, to original art masterpieces and even submarines, behind every precious item there is a story to tell. In this episode, reformed 1980s cat burglar Sid hopes to raise funds with help from his family and their jewellery. Prestige Pawnbrokers boss James gets the fright of his life when he test drives a client's superbike at Brands Hatch. New employee Kristen is put to the test when she has to value two huge tanzanite stones. And Prestige's PA and office manager Jo visits a client, Maggie, who, following a string of bad luck, including being diagnosed with cancer, can't pay back her loan, and is in danger of losing her late mother's jewellery. Touched by Maggie's unique situation, Jo tries to convince James to extend her loan one last time to save her precious jewellery. But can Jo talk shrewd businessman James around?
