"I had a very nice diamond ring and 2 gold necklaces that I have wanted to sell for a very, very long time, but never thought I could get a fair price...especially from a pawn shop!!! I finally decided to take my jewelry in and at least get an estimate of what they were worth, rather than just assuming. I definitely did not expect much. \n\nI looked on Yelp and Liberty was the best reviewed pawn shop in my area. I called to ask about how the process worked. The girl I talked to - I wish I would have gotten her name - was so incredibly nice and helpful. This surprised me because I have always had a negative perception regarding pawn shops....If you've ever seen the movie \"The Crow,\" you'd understand why! Lol\n\nAs I was driving to their location, I accidentally pulled into another shop just up the street. If the girl I talked to had not been so sweet and patient with me, I would have probably just gone into USA pawn, but I had already decided I would only go to Liberty. \n\nThe gentleman I worked with was also very nice and professional - again I am sorry I didn't get his name. \n\nThe price he quoted me for the gold chains was almost 10 times what I had expected, so I had no desire to haggle. The diamond ring was a little different. He gave me a price that was way below what I wanted, but WELL above what I ever expected to get. We negotiated a bit and ultimately landed on a price that I was actually happy with. I'm sure I could have gotten more for the ring, but that would mean appraisals, meeting with multiple buyers, etc. \n\nI don't know if Liberty is really better than other pawn shops since it's the only one I've ever been to. All I can say is that I got way more money than I expected and it was a VERY POSITIVE EXPERIENCE!!"^^ .
