| - I have never been in a pawn shop before, and I read the reviews so I knew what to expect AND what not to expect. I was pleasantly surprised, it was actually better than everyone says.
First, I sold a piece of jewelry to them and was given a pretty fair price.
Then I browsed the store. Some of the prices were high, others seemed on point. I was seriously interested in an item and was offered a discount on the ticket price, but ultimately passed. I wanted to know more about it and the clerk did what he could to answer, plus he let me Google, and even compare prices on any others currently for sale online --- prices turned out to be higher online. So I don't agree with the "overly expensive" reviews I see for this shop. I think the staff is great, considering the amount of foot traffic they get every single day. Everyone was courteous and professional, right down to the parking lot attendants.
Chumlee arrived just as we were leaving Yay! and was so gracious to let us take a pic with him and also autograph a Pawn Stars photo we got as a bonus for the purchase we did finally make. We know we got lucky.
They are expanding the store. I hope with more pawn, not t-shirts. We will be back, and maybe we'll find another cool item to buy next time.
