3. Stolen Diamonds
Although the Pawn Stars are generous with their offers, some clients will actually try to sell items that are not theirs. For example, in one of the episodes, Rick bought a pair of diamond earrings for $40,000. Although it turned out that the earings were authentic and real diamonds, the person selling them did not actually own them. The diamonds were actually stolen and sold on TV through the Pawn Stars. The bad news was the thief burnt through all of the cash before the police were able to maintain the situation. This caused Rick to return the jewelry without any compensation.
4. It’s Broken
The Pawn Stars always had trouble, especially with people trying to sell to the cast some stolen goods. However, in some cases, stolen goods might be considered a small case compared to when the cast lost money due to their own actions. Once, Chumlee leaned against a stand-up bass that they had just bought. However, the bass was fragile and could not stand straight. This action caused the bass to topple over and break on the floor. Like one of Chumlee’s shenanigans, he tried to hide the destroyed item by shoving the broken parts back inside the case. Of course, moments later his friends found out. The broken bass cost the cast $20,000.
