  Awful, awful experience. I came into to pawn a Nikon D5600. So I asked the Mexician guy with the glasses how much I would be able to get for it. He flat out told me 150 with a straight face. My camera is in great condition, it's just as good as it when it came out of the box. So I told the guy, I could sell it on ebay between the 300-400 range (of course the body itself). He told me that I wouldn't be able to get that much, so I pulled up an Ebay listing, and people were selling their used cameras (the body by itself), for 300-500, people were auctioning for it and having a bidding war. As soon as I brought up I can get it for much for money on ebay, he caught an attitude, the Mexician guy with the glasses. I asked how much he would pawn it with three lens, and he told me he wouldn't take the accessories (the lens). So at this point, I just noticed the Mexican guy with the glasses caught an attitude. I asked him how much would I get for selling it, and he said nothing, because I have cameras over there. So I told him I'd sell it on ebay and already put up my camera with all my lens, for a total of 950, but the so called expert knew more than I did! Don't do business here. There's a reason why this pawn shop is always empty. The way they conduct business is disgusting. Rude and disrespectful. Also, they are selling old systems for egregious prices & and they are also selling old 360 games for laughable unreasonable prices. The 360 games they sell can be played with Game Pass for ten dollars a month. I also walked by once and they were selling a used Nintendo Switch for three hundred dollars, then V1 model retails for 250, the price was slashed by Nintendo Awful. Never will I step foot into this place again. I'm shocked they managed to stay in business during the pandemic when all of the other mom & pop shops were wiped out. The Mexician man Is bitter & resentful.

  Response from the owner

  Sorry you had a bad experience. We try our best to give loans out on merchandise without buying them from our customers. Most of our customers prefer borrow instead of selling. All our employees try to offer a fair price for a loan on merchandise. We also understand all our customers have a right not to accept our offer and look for the best offer they can get, even by selling on eBay. Good luck on eBay we hope you get what you are looking for.
