You can tell the real desperate types who walk in and go, "I want $3,500 for this thing" and Rick goes, "I'll give you $400". If the guy goes, "Can you go up to $500??" he's desperate. LOL
Some questions:
Are all those experts they are always calling in ("I have a friend...") just seconds away and always available to haul their ass down to a fucking pawn shop? Do they get paid for their appraisels or do they just do it cause.....why? WTF? LOL
Why is it always so quiet and dead in their "office"? It's like no one is ever there yet there are lines to get in. The Old Man sleeping, etc....wtf?
Do they ever actually SELL anything?
And so basically the entire "point" of the show, it's dramatic center, is whether or not Rick and the Old Man make money.
WTF????????????????

They have a ton of walk in business. There is a long line just to get in to shop. My understanding is that they close down the shop when they shoot the show and they shoot a ton of episodes back to back. The experts are all told when they are shooting and make themselves available. And, of course, all the stuff that takes place in between them buying the items is all scripted and set up.
