While it's interesting to see the collections, they don't go into much detail about the individual collections, just a pan shot over view of the person's collection. If the collector has a social media presence, you'd be better off viewing their content. The shows basic structure is, pan shot of collection, talk to collector for a moment about why they chose to collect this genre, then you look at 3 items in their collection and the "expert" says how much they're worth. After that the expert says what the whole collection is worth on a estimate, and the expert found something the collector has been looking for, Then one of the 3 items that were looked at, and sometimes something in the background shots is the item the expert would like. Then the collector decides if they want to trade their item for the experts. Trades don't happen very often.
Lisa does a fine job hosting, and if the show was a hour format instead of half hour it wouldn't feel as rushed, but all in all it's a good background noise series.
