* In the book (and a deleted scene from the movie), Rob comes across a woman selling a priceless record collection for $100. It turns out her husband left her, then asked her to sell the collection and send him the money (This is a reworking of a well-known {{urban legend}} that usually involves a car). The double-take when he finds an original Sun Records single by Creator/ElvisPresley is particularly good.

** This leads to an amusing confrontation when Rob tries to insist on paying over a thousand dollars for the collection, and the woman will barely rise her asking price to ninety. They have a reverse haggle, with him reluctantly lowering how much he's prepared to pay and her reluctantly raising the price, until he eventually admits that he can't do it. He does, however buy a vintage Roy Orbison single for fifty dollars, which she accepts.
