Turn the page with the Pawn Stars when a first edition of Mark Twain's "A Yankee in King Arthur's Court" finds itself in the shop. Will Rick make a deal that's one for the books or will it be nothing to write home about? Then, the guys take a trip to Neverland when a 1953 Peter Pan animation flies in. Will Corey and Chumlee join the Lost Boys or make the seller walk the plank? And later, Rick takes his business expertise to the classroom. Can he school some college students on the tricks of the trade or will they end up teaching him a lesson?
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.
