Also, hopefully they didn't pull one over on the mildly retarded young dude.
It's an interesting show. Amazing how quickly people come off the price they hoped they'd get. Imagine a lot of the stuff would only have value by selling to a collector, not a pawn shop. I relish when they just walk away.
I was a fan but after a while you only see the tall dude bust a nut over an old bike so many times before it gets old. And if I see fat boy get pumped over an oil can again I'll wind up shooting my TV.
This would have made a better doc instead of a TV show. IMO
I'd still rather see these "reality shows" than the LCD ones that try to get aging rockstars and hypemen laid.
I kind of like Pawn Stars and Pickers. I am still trying to figure out what the difference between Pickers and Hoarders is. Perspective?
Pawn Stars got me checking out pawn shops again. I bought a flip cam at one, I think the best part of it was haggling on price.
Been watching Billy the Exterminator, it's like a cross between Dog the Bounty Hunder and Dale Gribble (from King of the Hill). It is shot back in my hometown (Shreveport and Shreveport metro area, don't laugh). One of the videographers is a guy who was a chief photog at a tv station I worked at.

Pickers buy with the intent to flip for double what they paid. Hoarders buy and keep it forever. I used to hoard records. Now I'm a picker.

Not to mention that Hoarders have a serious psychological condition that often times (at least when documented on the show) is considered a detriment to them, their family, and often times their physical health.
Pickers make a living off of searching through peoples stuff and flipping the valuable stuff they find for a profit.

EPIC ZING!

I like Pawn Stars here and there, but main dude makes the lamest unfunny comments which proceeds to crack up at. Shit gets on my nerves.
