pawn stars "is" the joke. you just know the producers have people bring this crap in for the show. anybody who has even gone to a pawnshop knows they don't operate like that.
besides if they could sell it for $5000 they would pay the guy $2500 for it so they could make money off it. what kind of pawnshop buys things for what they are worth?
usually they will give you a quarter of what it's worth.
aaaand that's why you only got $25 for your PSP.
wait....what?
