Cajun Pawn Stars

I didn't care for Pawn Stars so I guess to think I'd enjoy this one would be far from reality. That aside, I still decided to watch with my husband. The employees on this show WAY low-ball on most of actual valuable items and then pay almost retail on the most invaluable items.

The show itself is not very interesting. They would have been better off creating a docuseries on the items each person brought in and then do the negotiating off screen because the low-balling will throw you off. It seems they wanna give info and teach the viewers about the items more than they are interested in telling the value of the items.

IF NOTHING ELSE, it's nice to see the people smart enough NOT to sell to these "Pawn Stars".

This is one so stupid and sad show that I can not believe it. Trash the first class. Immediately in first episode, the big boss owner shows that he can make half million dollars purchase, than so obviously false purchase of speedboat, employees' fear of the boss when they decide make a wheelchair restoration, etc..As someone said, only they have a very nice shop, with a billion items exhibited, but the workers as from horror films where the actors get lost in some place in rural America where the whole town is crazy, in mutual agreement and hate all newcomers. Most probably they make money with pledge things from poor people, but they are not antiques&art dealers. Positive point of the show is perhaps the local crazy man, he make fun of them all, but they exploiting him. Original Vegas Pawn Stars is the best and I adore him.

09.07.2012. I admit, I went a little too far, and my reaction was too emotional because I really like original Pawn Stars. But this show is the phony and it is a fake and that is too much.

Cajun Pawn Stars is SO much better than the "original pawn stars" of Las Vegas. How anybody can stand that fat-a$$ed Rick and his fat-a$$ed son is beyond me. I've never seen bigger self-centered, egotistical, know-nothings in my entire life. The way they cheat people is unbelievable. What's worse is how the public s stupid enough to allow themselves to be cheated.

Cajun Pawn Stars, on the other hand, has a bunch of down-home good ol' boys that are, at least, likable. None of that glitzy Vegas crap.

It is very unfortunate and short-sided of the History network to have canceled the best pawn how out there.

This History Channel spin off from the popular juggernaut show "Pawn Stars" is not in the same league as the earlier Las Veges based version.

Cajun Pawn Stars takes place in a merchandise heavy, attractive enough pawn shop in Louisiana. The appearance of the inside of the shop is about the only appealing aspect of watching this show because at least there is lots to look at while you are being bored by the show's content and characters. The staff of this shop seem to lack knowledge on almost everything they comment on. They all also seem "flat" and just lifeless as far as characters go. You really just don't care about them, and when they present misinformation, they annoy you.

Their offer to buy pricing for the items that come in to the shop seems random and not based on any sort of reality or knowledge. On some items they offer a fraction of a realistic wholesale value, but on others they offer way over retail. For example, on the very same episode they low- balled a seller of a 1930's Ford because "it's not the same year as the Bonnie & Clyde car". Who cares about that? Unless the car being sold is the ACTUAL Bonnie & Clyde car, that fact does not change the value of the car being offered for sale, which was, incidentally being offered at a very fair price by the seller. Later, another seller offers a clone (re-creation) of the Dukes of Hazard General Lee car at a truly absurd $65K. They offer her $20K but quickly go up to $30K which is just about full retail on a clone version of this car.

All of the negotiations in the show seem, at best, emotionless, and at worst, completely fake.

The original Pawn Stars show is about as addictive and appealing to a very wide audience as any show I've ever watched. Cajun Pawn Stars is something I have zero interest in even watching again.

I predict that this show will not last long.

We have toi accept the "experts" are just that. I don't think so, There are too many experts in this small town. If you binge watch, you will see a lot of repeat sellers too. Amazing how they keep f9nding things to sell. I think they have this all mapped out in advance and juts bring in actors cast as sellers for the TV. I can see why it was not continued.. I do like seeing the variety. Do not believe any orices are real.
