miltonmunster Used to sort of like this some time back tried watching it recently & it's become so painfully irritating.Rick has become so gratingly annoying one minute he knows nothing then suddenly he's a bonafide expert like waffling on to the guy who's built many bowling ball mortars & the like about how he thinks it's gonna blow up what a load.Then big hose or whatever the arrogant tubolard is,& how many times do these experts have to introduce themselves per show.Theyve seemingly just become arrogant & above everyone
Art MacHentsev There are a few things that you need to know about Pawn Stars and the gang. Let's face it, this is a television show. Of course it's scripted. Why leave anything to chance. They rehearse, select, prep, do their homework and make the show entertaining. They thy to get as many "interesting" and "unique" objects on the show as possible. What happens is they advertise that they will be shooting. Currently they film 3 times/ week. People come, line up outside the store and a 4-6 lucky ones gets selected. However, as you watch season after season you start noticing that they take same people over and over again. It does get old pretty soon. But they still keep going. After speaking to one of the guys who works the parking lot for them, he's been there for 3 years now, he stated that everyone has changed a lot. Rick gets impossible to deal with at times, Cory is a big ass with inflated ego who tries to assert his authority stating he's a big shot now and get out of his way, Chum is still cool and of all them actually gets so many women to come by wearing next to nothing wanting his baby, it's crazy. Of the 4 Old Man is the only one who comes out from time to time, otherwise they spend most of the time in their office on the second floor. Having worked for Rick Harrison for 3 years, the employee has seen Old Man a few times and Cory only. Getting back to the "reality show". It's disheartening to find out just how fake everything is. There have been numerous claims that the items come from private collections, museums, and wherever else the producers may find them. Guess that's television today.
nyyb First off, in a lot of reviews of the show and shop, many people who have visited the shop are disappointed because they didn't see any of the four stars. Well, you won't see them. In an article I read about Rick, he says that "The privacy laws in Las Vegas prohibit any of the four of us working on the floor of our own store!!!" If they do appear, "all the people bring out their cameras and start shooting pictures", and that apparently is a violation of the laws.Now, about the show. I have watched almost every episode since it started. What I like about the show is all of the interesting and unusual items people bring in and the stories about them by Rick and the experts. So what if it's staged and a lot of the items are brought in from collections or other sources and the person pawning it was standing in line to get in a half hour ago. It's the objects themselves that are the stars.The silly banter between the stars was funny - The Old Man always had the best lines, and Chumlee was usually the target of many of their jokes. At the time I compared him to Gilligan - a nice guy who is always trying to do the right thing, but many times things just don't go his way. , Lately, over the last couple of seasons, Chumlee has changed from the likable guy to a rude, ignorant, obnoxious slob who does NOTHING but try to do as little work as possible, and get as much time off work as he can (even lying to the bosses to get it). He never follows his boss's instructions and thinks they should do things his way. He does nothing when he is in the shop other than keeping their security guard from doing his job with his stupid ideas or in the office telling Rick how he should run the shop.I cannot imagine anyone like that keeping any job anywhere for more than a day or two at most. He is also an inappropriate role model for all the kids who think he is funny.He has become so dislikable that instead of watching it, I tape it so I can fast-forward whenever he appears. Corey is becoming disliked too because he is becoming a smart-ass and does little other than run down his father. If you read reviews on other sites, an awful lot of people have got fed up with the young pair and have dumped the show. Get rid of Chumlee and their slumping ratings might start to rise.
Dan Nicolae Some of you people that complain about this need to get a life. This is not a retail shop. I don't even have a clue what is going on in some of these sellers minds. The expert says something is worth a grand, the seller immediately wants to get a grand and you're commenting on low bowling it. IT'S A PAWN SHOP! This is how these businesses keep their doors opened. They are designed for people that need money quick and badly and/or don't have the means to actually retail the product and wait to get full money on it. The moment you step in a store like this you know what you're getting yourself into. That's why you need to be at least 18. You complain about price tagging these things way over the actual value? Again, it's not retail. It works both ways, not just for the seller. There's no negotiating in a retail store. But clients will want to get it cheaper cause it's a pawn shop. Of course if something is worth around $1000 they'll pay 600 on it and put it up for 1300. Those 300 are bargaining room. And if someone is stupid enough to just pay, then it's their fault. They have people to pay salaries too and do you know how much it costs to actually store something? There's no guarantee it will sell the next day. Some of you are even bitching they're bad actors. Of course they are. They aren't actors. It;s just a pawn shop that the History Channel stumbled upon. Lucky a-holes? Yes! But you can't judge them cause they can't act. They are, or at least used to be just ordinary people. And of course Chum is no idiot. Did you actually think he was that stupid? Taking into consideration the items these people work with, he would have been fired in two weeks. The amount of general knowledge you have to have to work in a place like that is overbearing. Is it fake? Of course. Who would watch it if it wasn't? Do you know how boring that would be? It's a gold and silver pawn shop. 90% of business is made by people buying and selling gold and silver. Is the store just a tourist trap now? It is. It's normal and anyone with a lick of mind should have foresaw this. I don't understand why you people are bitching cause you had some fantasy expectations. I mean think about. If they actually stayed in the shop all the time on how popular it is, they wouldn't have a moments rest from the fans. Would YOU live like that? They're after money; now more than ever. Jeez!The only bad thing I have to say it's that they've overreached. This show shouldn't have had more than five seasons. It got old really fast, mostly cause of lack of items. This has forced producers in the last three or four season to actually stage sales. And this is bad cause it;s the heart of the show we're talking about. I didn't care for the rest fake stuff so long as the buying and selling part were real. Ant it was real. Not anymore. The producers just want to milk this cow cause the show is very popular. In conclusion, you have to view this show for how it is. Interesting if you wanna know things about history and other subjects. And really this is what interests me.
