I hope you are aware that the show is "fake" and all the items brought in are planned. Most of the guitars brought in are the property of the store the guitar expert comes from. This is why they are never sold. Nice to see Ren get some exposure though.

Structured and rehearsed, sure, but the transactions are real enough.
And you did say "most" but once in a while the seller does win:
From Vic Flick's Wiki page:
"Flick appeared on a 2013 episode of the History Channel show Pawn Stars titled "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service". Here he brought in his 1961 Fender Stratocaster guitar to shop owner Rick Harrison, who, after consulting Jesse Amoroso, settled on a price of $55,000 for the guitar.[7] The guitar sold at auction in 2014 for $25,000. https://www.julienslive.com/view-au...CK-OWNED-AND-PLAYED-1961-FENDER-STRATOCASTER"

A-yup.
