Yes - they cue you up--- for the TV part, They pre interview ya, Separate lines for TV people,by appointment only, load ya up with fanny pac transmiter, what i'm saying is the people going crazy are mad for "due cause" created by the illusion of being told ahead of time that "les" wants your item... he's already seen it on craigslist & knows the asking price ahead of time in alot of cases.. but it makes for interesting blow ups with the variety of personalities that they the producers shop for and expect confrontations to erupt... by simply saying "we don't want it" or offering way less money than the Craigslist asking price, and in my case no offer at all, because we didn't act up for the camera.. He new before I got there he didn't want my stuff is the point... It didn't cause me to go berserk, where-as someone else that needs money and is missing a card or two out of the deck would..
The people also are looking for their 10 minutes of fame and hamming it up.
I went for the fun of it and wife shuddered at the thought of going down there, what are people gonna think of us for doing it.... Who cares We went We lived We laughed at our venture....
