Think about that- 30 years! That's a long time (think back to what you were doing 30 years ago). And suddenly somebody is offering these folks money for this stuff. Personally I fail to see the problem. Nobody gets forced to sell anything, and in fact sometimes they don't. But they get a few minutes of fame on TV, they get some money for stuff that's been gathering dust for years and years, and we get to see some great salt-of-the-earth Americans. I don't see where anybody loses here. Interesting discussion though. A lot of this stuff has laid in a barn or shed for 30 years untouched. Think about that- 30 years!

Your reference to me is simple ignorance and not worth replying to. Again though, thanks for your thoughts on the things the Pickers are doing.

A lot of the stuff they buy is gonna rust into the ground anyway if they don't buy it, whats the problem? As far as all your " experience" . Maybe if you changed your bad attitude you would not have had ten different jobs in five years. Dude, pickers is an awesome show.

I was completely swayed form one end of the spectrum to the other after reading all of the posts so far. I am truely enlightened (No sarcasm intended). Mike and Dan your arguments and responses may have displayed the most civil act of internet courtesy i have ever wittnessed. bravo... see we all can just get along :-) P.S. i like the show ive learned alot about what different items are worth, things that i may have discarded in my own travels. the show is definately good education on certian levels.
