American Pickers

me too! and i love pawn stars as well!!

Oh. I thought this was about a bluegrass band. Never mind.

It's amazing how on pawn stars when a item comes in and they need more info on it,no matter how obscure a item it is they know a bona fide expert .Apparently Las Vegas has a expert for everything!

They definitely meet some interesting people on American Pickers and find some cool stuff. I just hope the show stays on for a while and doesn't get cancelled.

That would be a good name. hmmmmmm

it is a great show. a lot of that stuff they buy looks like junk but seems they know what to buy. they always make money. you right some very interesting people they deal with. my favorite was the old hippie. he was a blast.

the old "hobo" was awesome!

I like both those shows.

On more than one occasion their 'experts' have been wrong.

Allow me to define expert for you.

Ex- a has been
spert- pretty well describes itself!

On Storage Wars the other night they found a BMW Isetta(3 wheel car).Anyway back around 1970 one use to sit in a lot where River RD and Wilson Dam RD met.Does anyone remember seeing it?

I wish the pickers would drop by my neck of the woods. If they pay a finders fee I could make my house payment, no, I could pay off my house with all the stuff I see around here.

Anybody want a model A in running condition?

Hey Max, Shoot them an email or call them and maybe we'll see you and your stuff on a future episode. I think you can do either of these from the link in my initial post.

They're some good people too. Did anyone see the episode where they bought the hand painted banners from the old amusement park? They purchased one for $200 and the other for $700/$750. They ended up selling them for $10,000 and took the man back half of their profit.

I don't know, but if you are serious I can ask the owner.

it's on now and i think they're in Alabama!!!??!!

Yep. I'm watching it and they ARE in Alabama right now.

I like that guy from the "Alabama Museum of Wonder"... He reminds me of some of my distant relatives. LOL

I saw on MTV where they filmed a True Life episode here and someone of Facebook was talking about Paranormal State filming here. I think they were at ghost bridge or somewhere.
