The line to get in is killer. Have fun in Vegas.

I went a few weeks ago. Not worth a special trip. It is pandemonium in there, so bad that you cannot even get to deal on anything. I did not see anything worth purchasing in the sports field, but I also could not get close to some of the showcases, so I don't know for sure. The bouncer at the door was telling the people in front of me in line that they shoot every day but when they need the space to do it, they clear out the crowd and stage the walk-in. The bus is definitely the way to go but the area is really seedy--mostly board-ups--and you are a few blocks from the criminal courts building, so there are some 'characters' on the streets.

The antique store down the block has lots of stuff but it is all swap meet garbage and fakes being sold as the real deal. They had a Star Trek TOS communicator repro that they were selling as an original prop. Their proof was a photocopy of an Ebay listing for some other item. Though if you want Nazi, KKK and Confederate 'memorabilia' they do have some showcases of that for sale.

We went at 4 in the afternoon during a weekday. No line whatsoever. There was some of those red velvet ropes lined up in the middle of the store. You had to go up one side and down another. It reminded me of being in an art museum or something....unreal.

I still haven't been in this place although I drive by it all the time.....I was told by my neighbor about the long lines to get in, and just figured I'd rather wait until the hype calmed down (procrastinating at it's best ).

Nice to hear a few people say the bus is the way to go...I happen to be a bus driver here Thanks.

If you happen to be in a vehicle, the M Resort & Casino has one of the best buffets in town, but there is no bus that will go there. Not only do they have an amazing buffet but they are also one of the only buffets that have all you can drink beer and wine, if you like to knock a few back.....far Southern end of Las Vegas Blvd. & St. Rose Pkwy.

Enjoy your stay & hope you have a great time

Sincerely, Clayton

My wife and I went to the store about 2 1/2 years ago when the show wasn't near as popular. We went around 11 am and we were the only ones in the store except for the body guard. Rick and Hoss were also there. We spoke briefly to them about some items and no one else ever came in. The store is not near as large as it appears on TV. We thought at the time that the shows with all the people in them must be staged since no one was there when we were there. It's hard to believe there are lines now.

We did make it to the shop. As a fan of the show it was cool to be there. We had a 10 minute wait at noon on Friday. Really nothing of interest for me in the shop. A couple of handwritten signs on items stating 'as seen on'.

Nine of the cast members were in the shop; they have a separate area in the front for selling/pawning. The guywas intrigued by the cards but said they don't buy them. He gave me the business card for a sports shop nearby. Needless to say, Cobb and Young are back home with me.

They purchase fake autos left and right, but wouldn't touch legit cards. Great business model.
