Hardcore Pawn is fun. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 24, 08:29 5
- Pawn Stars seems reasonably fair with people (at least the ones on camera) and you actually learn stuff while watching. -- nm - zork Aug 24, 08:39
- That is the one pawn show I can't stand. The owner looks like your typical sleazy thief that is going to rip you off. - Krusty Aug 24, 08:36 1
  - It's the only one besides Pawn Stars I like. - Strongbad Aug 24, 08:38
- Is that the one where they bring in old microwave ovens and expect to get $35? - zork Aug 24, 08:32 1
  - Yes. Regularly Les offers them about 5% of their initial asking price, and they're so desperate for cash they'll take it. (filmed in Detroit) -- nm - Strongbad Aug 24, 08:36
Is that the one where you can smell the desperation on the people that walk in? -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 24, 08:29 2
- Ha yeah. I think they secretly want to get ripped off. It reinforces their world view. -- nm - Loyola Aug 24, 08:38
- either that or the gambling addiction -- nm - Beaker Aug 24, 08:33
