A coworker told me he saw ads for something like that, but my googling has failed.

I don’t think he was talking about that Friday The 13th TV series from years ago (I hope not).

Probably referring to [Oddities](http://science.discovery.com/tv/oddities/) on the Science Channel. Not so much a pawn shop, but an antique shop dealing with weird shit.

That’s the one. I’ve seen it several times and it is interesting.
