Down East Dickering

In Maine, Thursday is Uncle Henry's Day. Dickerers from all over the state use Uncle Henry's to buy, sell, swap and trade to support their free-wheeling lifestyles. Tony wants to serve delicious fresh lobster at his family reunion, so he and Codfish head to the shore to dicker for the Maine delicacy, and wind up hitting the high seas to earn it. Meanwhile, Clint, Nate and Bruce agree to clean up a notorious hoarder's barn, hoping the hoarder will agree to sell them some of his precious keepsakes. And a new pair of dickerers, Speedy and Tin Man, sell a brand-new customized pontoon boat--then must go on a dickering spree to earn the materials to build it.

On this particular Thursday, Tony, Codfish and Duke find themselves with real estate on the brain. They set out to get their hands on nine acres of prime land up in hippie country that they can turn around quick for a sweet chunk of change. Meanwhile, over at Yummy's place, Mitch shows up with a truckload of empty jam jars and a head full of ideas--he wants Yummy to make a massive batch of his famous jam and find a place to sell it for fun and profit. Over in his neck of the woods, Clint and his future ex-son-law Nate do some suburban lumberjacking, and as payment for their axe-wielding, they end up taking home a seen-better-days '71 MG Midget.

Tony, Codfish and Duke use their dickering skills to renovate their old hunting lodge, in order to raise the value of the property. Clint and Bruce make a bet to see who can find and fix up the coolest vintage vehicle. And Speedy and Tin Man are men on a mission to find vintage signs and other "mantiques" they can buy and re-sell to their collector pal. But will all their hunting and gathering pay off, or just empty their piggy banks?

Tony and Codfish pick up a handful of musical instruments they find advertised in Uncle Henry's and resell them to their music-shop pal Mark for a tidy profit. Meanwhile, over in Minot, Yummy's received a letter from the town council kindly requesting that he clean up the mess in his yard. Now it's up to Mitch to make his dad see the light--if they can get the garbage from the dooryard to the scrapyard, they could turn this problem into a money-making opportunity. And new team Greg and Tim Morin, Maine's resident dickering twins, prove their business savvy with a pricey purchase of three limos that ends up paying for itself in no time.

Yummy and Mitchell strike a deal to sell prized motorcycles while Tony and Codfish dicker for antique horse-drawn sleighs. Meanwhile, Clint barters his way into building a custom staircase railing for an old buddy.

When Tony's beloved truck breaks down, he and Codfish are forced into an escalating series of dickers to stave off a whopping repair bill. Meanwhile, at the Dickering Days swap meet, Clint's daughter Nina proves she's a chip off the bartering block. At the same event, Bruce and the Morin Brothers go toe to toe in a dickering prank.

Tony's streak of unsuccessful dickers takes a turn for the better when his partner, Codfish, returns from vacation. Yummy and Mitchell find creative ways to dicker their way out of debt. Meanwhile, Speedy and Tinman do an odd job that kicks off a week of "scrapping." But can they turn their precious metal into precious cash?

With their combined birthdays fast approaching, Tony, Codfish and Duke dicker to organize a money-making birthday extravaganza at the local racetrack. Meanwhile, Clint's eager to please one of his favorite friends after arranging a big trade with her. And Yummy and Mitchell place an Uncle Henry's ad to drum up more dickering business.
