Battle it out with the Pawn Stars when Rick checks out a German two-handed sword. Built in the early 1600s, will he execute a deal for this antique weapon or lose his edge? Then, Corey steps up to the plate when a set of 1933 baseball cards slide into the shop. Will he score big or get thrown out of the game? And later, Corey's noisy new neighbors are keeping him up at night. Will he find a quiet place to rest or become the shop's worst nightmare?.
Pawn Stars is filmed in Las Vegas, Nevada, where it chronicles the daily activities at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, a 24-hour family business operated by patriarch Richard Harrison (or "The Old Man"), his son Rick Harrison (who opened the shop with his father in 1988), Rick's son Corey (who has worked there since childhood), and Corey's childhood friend, Austin "Chumlee" Russell.
The series depicts the staff's interactions with customers, who bring in a variety of artifacts to sell or pawn and who are shown haggling over the price and discussing its historical background, with narration provided by the Harrisons and occasionally Chumlee. The series also follows the interpersonal conflicts among the cast.
Numerous local experts in a variety of areas also regularly appear to appraise the items being sold or pawned.
