I was watching Pawn Stars today I saw Chum messing with what looked like maybe a Savage? Anyway, he made a bet with Rick that he could get it running, and in the end he did. He just ended up getting in trouble for firing it up in the shop and stinking up the whole shop. I personally would love to walk into a store that smelled like burned nitro!:hehe:
 
Yes, we all know that after the first few episodes the show was staged just about everytime, I've had friends go into the store in Vegas and they took pictures and said it was really just a gift shop for the show, they do have one counter where things can be pawned and sold, but no real price bartering is done like the show. they really only pawn things at that one counter. Which are most likely auditioned for and rehearsed. But do they really need to run a pawn shop? all those guys including chum (whose probably the richest now) are multi millionaires just from the show.

you can see vids of the store on youtube in the LV local news of the store back in '03 and '05 and '08 I think, when it was a full time pawn shop, and even then Rick and the "old man" were probably close to being millionaires anyway. Theres even an "As seen on TV" sign out front! Cheesy!
 
It was an MGT that was a pos, it had mismatched shocks, a pair of maxx tires and rims, some other tires and rims, and wasn't even running.

For 150 bucks thats still a nice deal, even considering the middle mgmt.! All it needed was a glow plug he said.

You still believe? Why does it need a glow plug? It ran.

If you think any of those "reality" shows are real, YOU are the target audience. Yeah, like all those screaming loudmouths on Hardcore Pawn are real, too. A girl who took a swipe at Les got dragged out of the store and you could see the mike pack hooked to the back of her belt.
The ONLY truth to Lizard Lick Tow is that someone, somewhere has a towing business, but it's none of those idiots. That show is SOoooo stupid that I even have to change channels when they do an ad for it.
 
Whaaaat!? You mean reality shows aren't real!? No way! I used to watch Pawn Stars all the time but after a while I started to see how fake it was. i think the episode that did it for me was when the dude dragged in a supposed real Shelby Cobra carcass that someone supposedly abandoned in a storage unit. The thing looked almost brand new.

The only one that's real is "Campus P.D or Campus Cops", whatever it's called. The only reason I know it's totally real is that EVERY CALL on EVERY show deals with drunken partying students. :D

Yes, I do know all of the pawns and transactions are staged, if you read my earlier post...
 
I'll have to set my DVR for that! Episode 1, Rolex pushes a blinged out Savage making vrooom vrooom sounds while not wearing pants

Nah man. Rolex is gonna be on Collection Intervention. The hostess is going to try to convince him to sell some of his vintage cleaning supplies.

Hi Rolex!
