I like pawn Stars but sheesh....

It is a cool place and if you are in LV I suggest you go and see for yourself just how small and cramped it really is.

I've been there twice also. Saw the old man working in the back room the last time I was there.

Yeah, the place is unbelievably small. There's only about 7 feet between the two counters, and the whole thing is only about 40 feet long in the main shop area. And it is mostly full of t-shirts and bobble-head dolls and junk.

They had one episode where a young man brought in a beautiful cased set of Colt 1860s that he supposedly found in the wall of a house he was demolishing or renovating. Anyway , the case , accountrements and guns all looked good to me , but their expert said that while the guns were real , the set was wrong because they didn't have consecutive ser.nos. Offered the kid like $5G.

Special orders were usually consecutive , or close , and I suppose one could have been a replacement for a lost twin , but Colt was known to draw random production samples from storage for engraving and presentations , especially during the war.

I know the ""expert"" your talking about but-I posted his real name here and it was deleted. I guess I had broken a forums rule?

Brandy even has pretty little feetsies.

Some names shall not be spoken lest we suffer the deletion.

And the rules state I am supposed to have at least 5 stupid rants a month....and this was only my first![/QUOTE

Sip, that may be true, but ya gotta remember for the year you are way ahead on the curve..

 

[don5]

Look you...I'm just over 50 and on this Board that makes me a junior curmudgeon. And the rules state I am supposed to have at least 5 stupid rants a month....and this was only my first!

Sip, you might as well give it up for this month then. Nobody will pay attention when you start ranting. All I am going to remember and I bet most everyone else will is your postings on the "Chinese letters post". That was epic!!! I am still laughing at that one. It was that funny! You never missed a beat! Good reply. Mexican waiter indeed.

 

[bgrafsr]

I bought one of those bowling ball cannons. Now I can roll a few frames at the local alley without leaving my yard.

Give me Brandy on Storage Wars any day.

I'll take the two babes on Tanked Unfiltered. Thank you.

One of the best things I ever witnessed on that show, though, was Rick positively identifying a real Faberge spider brooch that a woman brought in. Didn't know what it was, thought like a $1000 would be nice. Rick told her what she had and gave her five figures for it. That's the right way to do things.

I wonder if you would have witnessed that if he wasn't being filmed...

Not exactly ... 50-55 are the apprentice years in the Curmudgeon Guild, with 56-60 and 61-65 the journeyman and master years respectively. Full rank curmudgeon commissions are issued after the preceding three stages are successfully completed.

Hey, you sent me to the full rank area.

You're right mc5aw, it's clearly stated in the rules. Typical apprentice Curmudgeon mistake...everyone knows a true curmudgeon starts a rant with "Back in my day..."

 

[Old 44 Guy]

I see where some slime ball made a porn movie depicting Brandi. Completley false so Brandi sued & won. Cost the guy a bunch.

 

[HOUSTON RICK]

A TV show Staged? I am shocked! I still like the show with all its imperfections and the "staged" nonsense of Chumley.

 

[Evil Dog]

What ??? Chumley isn't real ???? Oh the pain of it all !!!!!

 

[Mickey D]

YES! And there's a "t" in "script"...I should know, I'm a write.

There are two 'R's in writer.

 

[sipowicz]

That was the joke Mickey...sheesh!

 

[bunkshaner]

I like it when they call on Mark Hall Patton the administrator from the Clark County Museum System. Not much he doesn't know relating to historic items. I could listen to his history lessons all day. (I am a big history buff lol).

But in an episode not long ago, they didn't allow Chumlee to participate in their bar trivia deal so he started his own team with all the experts the shop uses....it was pretty funny. Chumlees team got every answer right lol.

and to respond to "give me Brandy anyday" (from storage wars)...lol. gonna leave that one alone as not to incriminate myself.

I actually won a trip last year from the Storage Wars Texas show. They flew me and my wife out to Dallas. Put us up in a real fancy hotel, gave us cash, a rental car etc. We went to one of the storage auctions and then went to an apprasial. We actually made it in the episode they filmed when we were there. So I was famous for about 8 minutes lol. I got the scoop on same things that go on. But for the most part it was legit. I will post the full story when I get a chance.

Brandy you're a fine girl but my life my love my lady is the sea.

 

[wheelgun28]

I have over heard sailors saying that

Brandy you're a fine girl but my life my love my lady is the sea.

 

[wheelgun28]

I cannot believe this thread you guy have burst my bubble.

TV shows arent real, come one that cant be true.

Next you will tell me everything written on the internet isn't always true.
