ANTIQUE ROADSHOW DRIVING DEALERS NUTS

WESTPORT, Conn. (Wireless Flash) -- The PBS series, "Antiques Roadshow," is driving some antique dealers nuts. According to the Art and Antique Dealers League of America, the show is causing floods of customers to pester dealers because they're convinced their old junk is a priceless antique. A spokesman admits some folks do have valuable items under their nose, but real hidden treasures are few and far between. In fact, it's estimated "Antique Roadshow" producers interview 5000 people for every 10 that appear on the show. The antique dealers also say the internet is causing prices to shoot through the roof as people try to sell cheap garage sale junk for obscene prices through auction websites.
