Original Message Well, its another pawn shop tv show. Stuck in the same vein as PAWN STARS, and American Pickers, this Hardcore Pawn stars the owner, and his son and daughter running a business
of making money off of another person's ignorance or misfortune. Sadly, its completely legal. Just like Check Cashing stores, Rent to Own Centers, and cheap used car lots that know exactly what they are doing when financing a cheap car to someone a paycheck away from the car lot repossessing it, suing the guy, and then putting the same car back out on the lot for the next missfortunate uneducated soul. Yes, Credit Card companys. Oh, did I mention Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac home loans to people who were biting off more than they could chew, but had no idea of that fact.
In this country its legal. There are so many people out there that will take advantage of anyone that they can.

So, first episode,, this owner lowballs everyone that they can get on camera, and throws out whoever isn't satisfied with his intent on saving every buck he can on the items that people bring in.

The second Episode, someone actually threatened him, so he wants to buy his family handguns... heh. So off to the gun store, where the Gun Store owner gives them (and the freekin' camera crew) the full treatment, and probably comps their ammo. The gun store owner is giving the guy a great discount on these guns, and the Pawn Guy is even trying to get a deal on the stupid $60 holtsers they are buying too. Unbelievable. His need to be greedy about maybe knocking off another $20 on the entire purchase of about $3 grand of guns got his ass thrown out of the gun store. That Gun Store owner was Pissed! He threw this guy, his family, and the camera crew OUT!.
This Pawn Store owner got what was coming to him. This is the way he treats everyone else that comes into his shop. If this greedy slimeball would have just Paid Retail and shut the hell up, he would have been fine, AND respected.
You should watch this guy, he's a pawn shop slimeball, his son may possibly be gay, and his daughter grew up in the shop, but still dosen't have too much of a clue of working the deal, and she has to add something to Everyone's business deals, even though most of the time she has no business nosing in because she don't know what shes looking at or talking about.
These are my two cents.
Respect the person you do business with, and you will have his business, and respect again. Burn someone for your own raw greed and profit, and you will be seen for exactly who you are.
This pawn guy will show his true colors every time you see someone disrespect him. He needs to think that he is the most important person, although this is only true at his business. Anywhere else, people could care less about his ass and what he thinks.
People, you must remember, IF YOU SET FOOT INTO A PAWN SHOP, YOU HAVE ALREADY LOST. Sell your stuff on Craigslist.
Cheers.
