Spent 6 days in Vegas over Xmas and one of our stops was Gold and Silver Pawn Shop. Got in a block long line that went rather fast. When I got inside, the disappointment started. This Pawn Shop is very small, TV makes it look bigger. Does not look like the show in some ways. Most of the items were in jewelry cases but not very much large items except for a few motorcycles. I challenge anybody to dispute this fact, about 30% of this shop was souvenirs. Frankly I expected to see tee shirts and some other souvenirs but not 30% of the shop. If you buy an item and a souvenir, you have to go to two different places to pay. Was told by an employee, that the Gang basically only comes in when taping, except for the old man. This is your typical case of show business going to your head. It looks like only about 40% of the people leaving bought anything. These guys for now are celebrities but you know what they say, what goes up, must come down. There are slot machines themed for the show. Seedy part of town also. They have a little area in the parking lot to buy snacks. Actually, there is an Antique Store across the street I enjoyed more. Just telling the facts.
