Being a fan of Pawn Stars, we felt the need to venture in and check out the famous Gold and Silver Pawn Shop on our latest venture to Vegas. We realistically weren't expecting to see any of the guys on the show, but we were excited to see some of the items that were shown on TV.\n\nWe got here around opening time on a Sunday morning (Around 9 A.M.). There was no line, and there was no problem finding parking during that time. \n\nThe store is comprised of two different sections. The front half is reserved for their pawn shop items for sale, mainly jewelry and accessories with a smattering of antique and unique items that you might have seen on the show. The back half holds the large items (e.g., cars, bikes), various works of art (Including sad clown paintings selling for thousands of dollars), and souvenir stuff from the show. We browsed through several times, but found that:\n\n1. The jewelry and accessories were priced pretty high.\n\n2. While there were a few items I recognized from the show, I was disappointed that they didn't have the \"Death Clock\" on the shelves (i.e., the ormolu clock).\n\n3. I really wanted to buy a souvenir, but I didn't see any shirts that I wanted to buy, and I didn't want to pay $7 for a Pawn Stars bandana or lanyard. Other items I saw for sale were hats, glassware, keychains, decorative plates, pens, posters, and a fuzzy Chumlee blanket.\n\nIf you're a fan of the show, it's worth a stop to see the pawn shop. They do post what people from the show will be at the shop that day (When we went, Rebecca the historical books expert was going to be there in the afternoon).
