Cajun Pawn Stars

I couldn't disagree more with the previous reviewer who criticized Cajun Pawn Stars so severely. I actually like Cajun Pawn Stars better than Pawn Stars, which I also like. I find the owner of the store and his customers to be real characters who are interesting to watch. I am amazed that the previous reviewer is so presumptuous to assume that he knows more than the owners of the pawn shop in Cajun Pawn Stars or, to put it another way, that they don't know what they are doing. Proof that he is completely wrong is the obvious fact that the store is very successful. You don't run a business like that without knowing what you are doing! It is perfectly clear that the older brother knows exactly what he is doing even though the previous reviewer doesn't have the knowledge to realize that. As for the old Ford that the previous reviewer claimed should be worth just as much as the Bonnie and Clyde "Death Car," nobody on the show claimed that would make it more valuable although a viewer could interpret their comment that way. They merely pointed out that it was not the same year. That said, it is very possible that having a car identical to the Death Car could make it more valuable to collectors. The previous reviewer, again, presumes to know more about this business than the successful owner of the store. I almost get he feeling that the other reviewer simply doesn't like southerners. In fact, he comes across as a San Francisco liberal air-head! Don't take what he says seriously. Watch the show for yourself and decide if you like it or not. Judge it on it's own, not against Pawn Stars. After all, you don't have to choose between the two shows! You can enjoy them both as I do.

This is a show that makes people ignorant. They say things that, at least my history classes would contradict, they so much that are so wrong. I mean really inaccurate. It's like they are are trying to rewrite history with prejudice. The brother is the Chum Lee of the show but shows a bit more intelligence but it's a fake has he has shown so much "stupidity" and ignorance. Because of his demenor, you almost believe him. I really dislike that Pluto and other networks promote this garbage. It's from the History channel and should be righteous but in reallity, it's designed to uneducate the youth of america.

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.

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".
