Staff is nice I have been with Gem for over 20 years never had any problems with them.

Went in out of curiosity to see how much they would offer for an authentic Van Cleef. They gave me an offer of $100-$120 which is diabolical when the bracelets retail price is $1630+. Bracelet was in excellent condition and had authentication. They also sell a very similar bracelet to mine (same price) for 1,500 on their website. They are a scam!!!! read more

I would not go anywhere else. Staff is kind and under. Will give you the best price and service

Good professional & fast the process was simple and the people were very helpful with my transaction

Pleasant transaction, small wait time but after processing a renewal, it was all great!

Ms. Gertrude provided professional prompt customer service. The wait time was short and she asked about my needs. I feel like she had my best interest in mind so I could quickly resolve my fiscal needs. Beautiful smile and extremely pkeasant read more

Erica was a peach and some. She handled me with care and did her best to get me the best price. I respected her explanation and understood why it was lower than I expected. Her customer service was impeccable. She took her time tried her best to get to purchase something from the other area of the shop. You can also sell and pawn instruments, fashion bags and other fine jewelry. I felt safe. They have a security guard, cameras all over and buzz in lock doors. I would come back to this place. You can even pay for storage and tickets. This place used to be the big check cashing place on Flatbush and Bergen. Thanks again Erica, you were great! read more

Good service . I have been going to Gem for years now. A very helpful place to do your transactions as needed. I like the new system to pay your fees by phone, this is important for people like myself that live far away. I recommend this business for your financial needs read more

They are the best. Their customers service is top notch. You always leave satisfied.

I was just in here and this place is NOT to be believed. I originally only came here because of the high reviews, but realistically, ALL of the five star reviews posted are FAKE. I dealt with Corey, the "employee of the month", who only offered me $50 for my impeccable item currently valued at $700 retail (still being sold online and in stores). He didn't want to look at my original receipt which I had with me, nor did he check the value anywhere online. If he would have attempted to provide this basic level of common sense and common customer courtesy, he would have noticed the true value of this item. Corey decided that he knows the price of every item being sold everywhere online/in stores and came up with $50 off the top of his head. A predatory move places like this use, BE VERY AWARE! BEFORE YOU THINK ABOUT COMING HERE. THINK THREE TIMES OVER BEFORE REALLY COMING HERE! REALLY think about whether you'd like to waste your time and energy coming to a place like this, that truly under values all items, because they are taking advantage of folks in their current situation. MY ADVICE: Places like these follow the SAME SCRIPT. 1. DO NOT answer them with a dollar amount when they ask you how much you want. This is the oldest trick in the book at places like these. Listen when they first speak with folks around you while you're in the store. You'll hear the same script, just with a different cast member (a customer). This is where they cut their offer to you by 1/5 to 1/6th, even before they assess your item. This is NOT how respectable business is done. 2. RESEARCH whether this place has any VIOLATIONS and/or are doing any deals which are ILLEGAL in the state of New York, like STILL pawning iPhone's and iPad's... 3. SELL ON AN APP, OR GO SOMEWHERE ELSE INSTEAD that has a true, reputable reputation that can be believed. DO NOT continue to allow businesses like these to continue praying on the vulnerable public. I have reviewed over 113 places and my assessment of this place can be believed. You can go by the reviewers on here who have ONLY posted one single review ever in their life, or someone who thoroughly understands how business and customer service is done. The choice is yours and remember that time and energy wasted = money lost. You decide... YOU'VE BEEN WARNED... read more

Great service, professional my go to jewelry store. Staff is very helpful and don't forget the great prices everyday but especially on Black Friday!! read more

Another great experience! Kevin was wonderful. He helped me through the seamless process of FINALLY getting my Rolex Seadweller out of pawn. The only gripe I have was when I asked to have the back taken off for inspection. I was first asked why? and then told by a young lady who'd do it, that I'd have to wait 20min until she was on her break!. I couldn't wait another sec. So I passed, other than that..... I give KEVIN 5 ***** and his grandpa who jogs every morning with his Pitbull as well! read more

Rosalee at the call center is amazing!! she is so sweet, caring, professional and understanding! i wish more call center reps were like her.

Blessings to all at this holiday season time , especially to my Gem pawnbrokers family; I have been doing business with them for years , and it never fails in receiving the upmost professionalism, consideration, courtesy and respect with every transaction. There was one particular transaction concerning a very special rare piece that I wasn't able to redeem at the bayside location which had expired and finally went up for sale, I had made previous arrangements to hold the piece and they did all that they could but it finally went out for sale to other locations. I thought all hope had failed that the piece was lost; but thanks first be to prayer I inquired about it about a year later, and spoke to Ms. Vivian at the Brooklyn location Flatbush Ave. , she was so nice after I explained to her what had happened and how important the pendant was to me she offered to investigate to see if the piece was sold. She called me back with the good news, she was able to locate the pendant which was incidentally there at the store; she then spoke to her manager and he agreed and allowed it to be redeemed, I was able to pick it up the very same day; upon arrival I was treated with so much love and respect by everyone the minute I walked in the store, they even gave me a Gem coffee mug, a water bottle and a cell phone cleaning kit as a gift just for being a customer. The Gem Flatbush location in Brooklyn I would go as far to say is the best of the other's by far. I want to thank them all again especially Ms. Vivian for her professionalism and sensitivity with the heart to understand the business that every customer and pledge along with any matter is of upmost importance, it's not just about the money ; God Bless you all and thank you. read more

I went to the Flatbush location, got a little under what I needed, but the price was acceptable and close enough, I mean you can't get exactly what you paid for it initially, but I was happy with the outcome. They're professional and friendly. ZMaril was quick and very efficient, I already been there before so it was easy to pullup my jewelry online for transactions. On the phone payments are the best this company could have come up with, which makes it so much easier for me to do transactions at my fingertips. I would definitely use them again. Thank you GEM Pawnbrokers read more

I did everything electronically to keep my stuff safe until I can pick it up. Got a text when Bill due. Paid via email. Receipt arrived quickly. Customer service rep (DIANE) was awesome!! Overall GEM provides a great service in a pinch. Some folks bad mouth a pawn service. Clearly they never had a cash flow problem. But if YOU do, use them! I used them 20 years ago. Remembered it this year and they remain professional personalized service just with upgrades via computerized process. Oh you can buy great jewelry for competitive prices too. Luxury handbag selection varies so if you see it GET IT. It won't last long. read more

They've always come through for me. I may have to negotiate for a minute but ultimately because I'm a long in good standing customer, they always come around (somewhat). read more

Customer service is great. I feel Reassured that my valuables are safe and the term aren't unreasonable.

Gem Pawnbroker has been an established business in NYC with locations in every borough. This is a trusted business where residents of the city can get collateral based loans or sell items that they own. The staff is always very helpful and knowledgeable of the loan process. The process of loan repayment and items pick up is clearly explained and the store management team are also on site to assist in any additional questions you might have. You are given a fair evaluation of your items you wish to sell or pawn. The process is very professional. I would like to give my compliments to several staff members in the Flatbush Avenue location who have always been excellent in customer care and efficiency Jirrad,Vivian and Bianca (supervisor) are the best! read more

I went to the Flatbush store today to pawn 2 pieces of jewelry and I put them on separate tickets, so the gentleman gave me the cash for my chain but he said Bianka wouldn't pawn my pendant for Fear it's Fake. I was totally pissed off because I've Pawned this Pendant with Gem Brooklyn locations for years, plus she saw in the system that I've Pawned before but wouldn't today so I said what type of nonsense is she doing, or maybe she was too lazy to get herself up and test it, she just was sitting down saying no. I went to 2 other of their Locations and I was told it's nothing wrong with this Pendant, and it shows us in the system that is real and how much it weighs and how much is worth so I think she did that out of spite or she's just to big & lazy for the job. read more

Kevin and the people there were the best! This was super fast, simple, and easy! Truly appreciate it. Thank you!

Nilda was very helpful and explained the process carefully and fully. I'm confident that my jewelry is in good hands.

The service at Gem Pawn Brokers was great. Corey & Alias were both very helpful and efficient.

I typically go to Gem to Pawn or sell my unused items or for a short term loan but today was my last time. I walked in with a bicycle that sells for a few thousand dollars brand new when i was "greeted" by a extremely rude saleswoman. She actually was laughing at me in front of the whole store and created a scene while the rest of their staff joined in on the laughter. Some people are forced to pawn belongings in order to pay bills and to be laughed at and abused is just wrong and disrespectful. Don't do business with these people unless you feel like being mistreated. read more
