Hardcore Pawn...WTF?

Anyone seen or watch this show? I have never seen a bigger group of douche bags run a business in my life! It is incredible how rude they are to their customers and the guy's son and daughter are complete jerks! Not to mention they lowball the hell out of everyone!

I just laugh at it, and thank God (one of many reasons) I don't live in the Motor City

I see enough low-life people out in public that I don't need to come home and see them.
Can't believe the language people use. Depressing.

I have watched this show a couple of times. The way they treat people is wrong since they do price the products they are buying really low. It is entertaining though.

I was watching "Pawn Stars" in our break room at work. Rick was bartering with a guy who wanted $1500.00 for an item. He offered the guy $300.00, and finally went up to $400.00. His final argument for the price he offered was that it was only worth $750.00, and he had to make a profit. WTF? He expects almost 100% profit? (And most likely was low-balling the guy even at $750.00.) I wanted to reach through the TV and knock him on his butt. What a douche. At least the guy walked out. I've seen those guys rip some people pretty bad and brag about it.

I actually really like Pawn Stars, Hardcore Pawn though...NO

Hardcore Pawn offers insanely low prices and to top it off they are just complete jerks. Pawn Stars, they offer decent prices for the most part and are friendly

I have to admit, they do tend to be polite. So was Jesse James. A lot of people really liked him, too.

All of these fake *** reality type shows suck. There are several based down here in Louisiana and most are fake and the rest are staged. I mean, you really don't know there is a gator on that line? The camera man right next to it does.

The name pretty much told me all I needed to know. Saw it on the listing but I've never watched it.

You know operation repo is just a show full of filmed reenactments right? I tout it was cool until I found that out. Now it's just stupid like most shows on tru tv. Almost every show on that channel is not real.
