Haha yeah it's a good show unless you know anything about how pawn shops work and the epic fucking sleazeballs that run them.  Those guys are duping people left and right.  Some of the mark up they make is fricking amazing.  They  know EXACTLY what they are doing............this whole.......well I don't know what it's worth blah blah blah.  They know what they can get for it or if it will even sell.

Why would he take 200,000 when he could put it in an auction and still easily clear 2-3 times as much?

he was a representative of the owner....not the owner of the coins himself. Im sure the owner gave him a reserve price....and $200,00 wasnt it.

irish muscle didnt have his listening ears on while watching tv

I was just in there and bought a $10 PS3 game for my nephew - Tiger Woods golf.

I drive by late at night and that place is usually full of people.

Most of the employees look like old time, bulked up power lifters who arrived in Vegas, lost at the tables, and needed a job.

Yeah, too many times an appraiser will come in and say, "Wow, this is a great piece, it's easily worth 5,000 dollars." cue Rick to say, "Yeah, well, I'll give you $700 for it."  Fucking rip off.

most of these nitwits can get a fuck load more just be selling it themselves...but they are too stupid to figure out how to do that so they take only a fraction of what their shit is worth.
