Seems like a natural, for a paranormal investigator to buy it.

The whole show is a scam.
This is reality TV at it's worst.
Yes, it is a real store.
But the money is made on TV.
The store has a TV staff that goes out and finds this stuff. It is not ordinary people walking in with "stuff".
A complete fake.
Yes, it is entertainment. And that is fine if that entertainment is what you like.
But it is not real.

You are so wrong I have been there twice I use to live there also the show is real and the staff are for real. I bought a ring from there my wife and I got a picture taken with Less and his daughter Ashley.

I was in a band once called Death Van.

Wherever we rolled into town, nobody was anxious to see us.

That show is very.. Produced. If we want to use that term over 'fake'..

yes, it's a real shop, but what is shown on the TV is nothing like the every day happenings.. And, I believe they stage alot of things.

I went to Gold and Silver in Vegas a month or so ago.. the place is quite small, which I think everyone says.. But.. It's a pawn shop.. It's not what you see on TV.. They have filming days where they bring everyone in to show off their fancy items.

Hardcore Pawn does much the same, plus I think plants some crazy people to give the show some 'excitement'.

Did they really buy and sell that van? No doubt.
