Pawn Stars on the History Channel

[MiamiHeat]

Love this show. It's aired every Sunday night at 10pm Eastern standard time on the History channel. People walk into the Pawn shop with all sorts of stuff. Civil war guns and swords, old coke machines.

The pawn employees analyze the item to make sure it's real, or they bring an expert to do it. Then they haggle on a price, etc... watch the youtube video below

Anyone else like it?

It's a GREAT show. You learn all sorts of things, and you get to see all sorts of items.

[Bender]

I never heard of it, but it sounds pretty good, and interesting. I'll check it out, thanks.

[Pistons < Spurs]

:tu I've watched a few episodes, and must admit it's pretty entertaining. The employees have a bit of personality, and they always get interesting items to buy/fix-up/sell.

[MiamiHeat]

They got little promotional video's on youtube, like this one

These videos are not from the actual show, just mini-videos from the cast of the show

[Leetonidas]

Yeah I recently got into watching this. Pretty awesome show.

[iggypop123]

the intro is just weird. the main dad is trying to dress as some sort of Don

[ashbeeigh]

I've watched it a few times. It makes me laugh.

[BlackSwordsMan]

only thing that sucks about this show is they don't really show it on any other day but sunday.

That Chum kid reminds me of the fat lazy kid on American chopper.

[NoOptionB]

[MiamiHeat]

love the show as well, but how do we know they are experts?
did you see the one with the nautical clock and he got it cheap and took like $50 dollars to repair and he said he could make up to a $1000 on it. Or the Shelby car they bought.....

[baseline bum]

The look on the father's and grandfather's faces when Big Hoss dropped 38G on the hot-air balloon was priceless, as was the shout-down he got buying that boat. Chumlee is by far the best character though. LMAO @ him taking 4 hours to get the old man's Indian necklace on last night's episode.

[TimDunkem]

What about when he dropped a flail onto the glass counter? :lol

He was at home eating and watching TV. :lmao

[I. Hustle]

I am surprised this show doesn't get in the way of your gay porn watching. Or do you just have two TV's going at the same time?

[scampers]

I originally gave this show a pass based on its premise, but I watched a couple episodes the other day out of pure boredom and I'm now hooked. It's really entertaining, and I actually find myself learning about interesting shit because of the crazy things people bring in that they have to do research on.

[Blue Jew]

I would love to visit that pawnshop I saw an Andy Warhol painting go cheap.

I like how the person pawning an old knife only wants 50 bucks, they say that is all they need, then they bring in an expert that says the knife could be worth 2,500 and then the person with the knife won't take any less than 2,000

[Bukefal]

Cool that seems like an interesting show. I hope it will come to europe.

[BlackSwordsMan]

I don't get how they can trust a dumbass like chum lee with buying and selling shit at the pawn shop

[MiamiHeat]

I don't get how they can trust a dumbass like chum lee with buying and selling shit at the pawn shop

he usually has to ask permission from big hoss for any expensive buys

[Soul_Patch]

shows entertaining, but if i hear one more person say "Big Hoss" i will stab someone with a fork...wtf, big hoss? shut the F up...

[Blue Jew]

Kinda like that show trick my truck had that one fat simple minded white guy that would bring the comedy to the show.

[baseline bum]

I think Chumlee is there strictly to be the guinea pig for testing all the old, unstable stuff that could explode on them.

[Blue Jew]

I wonder if it's just a coincidence his name is the same as the dumb character on tennessee tuxedo.

[Shaolin-Style]

I think chums smarter off camera than on. I'm pretty sure they just play up some things for the cameras to add another dynamic to their show.

I like it and I understand why some people feel the need to take stuff in when they don't know what they have is worth but wouldn't ebay be much better typically?

[PM5K]

Thanks again to MH, never heard of the show before but watched it and really liked it. The only complaint I have is that a few episodes showed what the people were hoping to get before they came in, and some of the shows don't. I prefer to know what they are hoping to get before they walk in the door.

The way it works out is you get to see the negotiating but you also know what they are hoping to get, so it's interesting to see how they negotiate.

[Blue Jew]

Pawn shops are a real trip. I am not proud to say I have pawned more stuff than I have purchased but I can tell you some stories that would be worthy of TV.

You can take a 500.00 dollar Johnny Unitas rookie card in mint condition and only get 10.00 dollars and at the same time find a 2,500.00 dollar laptop for 99.00 dollars.

It happened to me back in 2007 pawn shop off fredericksburg road. I like when the pawnshop tells you they won't take the computer you brought in because it's registered in someone else's name and you go home and change the name and walk back in the pawnshop and pawn it.

For some reason they think because the PC has a certain persons name when you right click my computer and go to properties that that computer will only work for that person.

Sometimes I wonder who is really running the show at those pawnshops.

You go in one day and get 50.00 dollars for a paint sprayer, take it out a week later then take it back the following week and get 200.00 dollars for the same sprayer that the other pawnshop employee said was only worth 50.00 dollars.


Not that I condone this type of activity but I have seen pawnshops offer you 20.00 dollars for a NFL Peyton Manning Jersey and the person goes outside and signs the Jersey with Peyton Manning's autograph walk back in the pawn shop an hour later and gets 100.00 for the same Jersey.

[CubanSucks]

I just can't watch this show anymore. That dickhead looking fuck is too annoying. I just can't understand why some of these people don't respond to the guy when he says "I can't pay that much for it" by giving him the middle finger and saying "well someone else can"

Obviously I don't mean the people just going in there with something they found in the attic looking to make a few bucks. But I see so many with heirlooms or something with a LOT of value acting like that place is their only option. They even bring an expert saying how much it's worth. If that expert says that sword or that bike or whatever is worth $10000, YOU DON'T HAVE TO SETTLE FOR $2500 JUST CAUSE YOU'RE ON A TV SHOW!

[SpursWoman]

We scream at them all the time....ever tried eBay at least you dumbasses???? You can put a reserve!!! Lol


So many people just let themselves get robbed on that show.

No shit. Remember this pic he'd only pay $5,000 for?

http://caseycombden.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/beyond-paradise-peter-lik.png

Bastards were asking $18,000 for it when I saw it in the store.

[baseline bum]

It blows me away when people give him 60-70% discounts on the stuff they sell. I remember seeing Rick buy a grenade or something from another guy who ran a pawn shop, and Rick had no problem buying with a 15% profit margin when he was dealing with someone who knew how to negotiate.

You guys do know this is scripted right?

[Buddy Holly]

I was going to post something similar.

This stuff isn't "reality" it's "scripted reality" which is the new trend with tv shows now. Present something that looks and feels like reality but is planned out and scripted.

It's amazing to me when I hear people talk about these scripted reality shows as if they're not scripted and in fact pure reality. It boggles the fuck out of my mind.

As for this pawn shop show, lol at people thinking the bald fat guy knows everything there is to know about anything and everything that gets brought into his shop.

Yeah, he's a human encyclopedia. He should be on Jeopardy. lol

[baseline bum]

That's without a doubt true; they kick everyone out when they're getting ready to film.

Is it scripted though? Hardcore pawn is 100% bullshit but I didn't think pawn stars was.

Aren't they all?

That doesn't mean I don't like it.

[manufan10]

I like to bet on which one is going to use the money to go back to the casinos and gamble. This should be something you can bet on in Vegas.

I HATE this show. It is taking air time from people who actually want to watch history stuff.

on one hand, you say you miss the documentaries.


then you talk about one of r lee ermy's shows.


confusing.

that's why i said both of them. good documentaries + r lee ermy = great television.
