Anyone use them here? Any tips? Do bigger cities have the best ones?

pawn shops are crooks. One opened near here so i took something i knew the value of that i didnt want to part with and looked what they tried to do to me.

Insulting.
Dishonorable.

I hope they get looted empty duringh the upcoming social unrest.

As Asante alluded, pawn shops are in the business of making money off of others' misfortune and/or ignorance.  Very rarely will you find any sort of attractive deal in one, although I do admit I love to poke around just to see what kind of odds and ends people have offloaded.  You can probably haggle the prices a bit at certain shops, but generally best not to entertain them.  You'll have far better luck at garage sales, eBay/Craigslist, or even in many cases just buying retail.

But seriously, take an item you know the value of, play the situation thst you're in a bit of a bind, and watch them try to rip you off using your urgency to sell as a means of making it so.

I strongly react to dishonest tactics, often not in person, but after the fact.


I once visited jewelers, pawn shops and gold buying offices with a fabulous krugerrand :awegold: i knew the exact value of.

they averaged at 3/4 the value i could get that day at a gold market dealer.

one of them, at a place that bought gold, said: "this coin does not come in a coin capsule, so that diminishes the value by 100 bucks"
coin capsules are sold for 2.50 for 10 at any coin store.
how smug and haughty must you be to think your customer is such an utter fool and what a complete varmint must you be to short "a fool" 100 bucks on one coin like that? Thats not a person i want to endorse in any way. That is a person who takes people at their time of need and fleeces them on their most prized possessions, often heirlooms.

I got rid of a bunch of stuff at pawn shops to fuel my drug addiction of the past...  Guitars, drum machines, etc.  Like was said, they low ball you!

If life learned me one thing: play dumb and watch closely whether people are ethical or crank up the dishonesty in the notion you're a fool.

They generally throw you one and see if you catch, but if you don't and stay stoic, they either get a bit more ethical or they try to take you for a ride for as much as they can get you for.

Only do actual business with the guy who kinda protects you from your naivete, the Abel, and fuck everything about Kain towards everyone you know.

Pawn shops are still better than a payday loan.

Not all pawnshops are ripoff, solely at least. We have two to three good ones up N. They often buy large lots of tools or storage units/stuff at auction.


Selling valuables to them doesn't pay well, but buying from them has saved me lots of money. It's always fun to see what they have at the time.

If you have something to sell, sell it. There are plenty of ways to do that, online and local. The only benefit to a pawn shop is that you can go in and walk out with cash right in that moment. But you pay the price by taking a shockingly low price below the value, and you aren't likely to get it back. They are exploitive.

If you don't want to sell it and instead want to "loan" it for quick money, finding another way is probably better. Donate plasma or something, offer to do a days work for under the table pay on a local Facebook city group, sign up for Doordash if you have a car. They are all less than ideal options, but often better ones than using pawn shops, or high interest predatory loans.

The sad fact about our society is that it is made to prey on the poor and then blame the poor for their situation. It stigmatizes their lives, their struggles, their sicknesses, their desperation, their needs, their lack of "success" and all while offering no true options to improve those circumstances. Then it blames them for not doing it themselves in a system designed to keep them in their place.

Consider pawn shops a tiny part of that system, a mouse trap. Don't walk into the trap.

I like looking through them.
It's a booming industry in South Africa with multiple franchises.
It's almost like fast food in America πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
