Title: Antique archeology vist
Post by: Nolatoolguy on March 28, 2013, 11:06:22 PM
If you watch the show American pickers some of this will look familiar.

I stopped by today as I was driving through the town.

Please excuse my poor photography skills.

Cool stuff Nolatoolguy. Would be neat to go there, just to say you have been. I do want to go to their Nashville store someday, if it's still there when I can get down there again.

Very interesting reads out there about the whole American Pickers thing. I recommend everybody do a google search for them and skip the ones pertaining to the store itself. Read the yelp.com ones, read about Danielle. Have to say after reading it, I have no interest in the show at all. All just made for TV nonsense.

I started looking at it more because of the $190 price tag on a $50 to $75 wrench.

It was intresting to go an see. It was right on my way to we're i was going so I stopped. I watch the show. I wouldn't say its completely real, but its still cool. I think some of it is staged and of course edited beyond belief.

But the big question is-- Did you meet Danielle????

I watch, but don't really care for the show. I think it is mostly staged, and often unrealistic on prices. The Indian wrench is an example.

No she wasn't there.   

I think most of it is staged, just like most shows. Prices were crazy to me.
