Love the history channel ones especially Pawn Stars, American Pickers, and American Restoration. I watch them because of the items and history behind the items.

Pawn Stars and the others want to make money so they have to low ball their offers (go to any pawn shop and you will find the same story). That is how they make money just like how Gamestop makes their money. They buy the good for 15 dollars and sell it for 30-45.


Yeah I know. Sometimes it seems they are ripping people off and other times its the other way around I guess.

Yea, they bought a decent amount of fake items.  I believe it was part of their little multiple choice question once after Chumlee bought a fake Gibson guitar.  I think they have probably bought over 10,000 (not sure but it was a pretty high number) fake items since they started.  That is why they usually just bring in their expert friends.
