I honestly think they thought I was some kind of hussler trying to slip him a banana. IMHO that show and the other Pawn shop show is all Hollywood.

That is really interesting that you did that. Your Lugers most likely made them swallow hard, and they likely felt that they were out of their price range, or more likely, did not know how to value them correctly.
