I went in to sell some jewelry I hadn't worn since my "power suit" days and not only was treated with much greater courtesy than I would ever have expected from a pawn shop, but also had a really fun and interesting conversation with the owner while he tested and evaluated what I'd brought. The price I received for my jewelry was fair and paid in cash, the experience was very positive, and I look forward to returning as a customer.

I actually had to make eye contact and greet the associate myself since he was so interested in this womans couch. Upon stating that I was here to turn in my slip and redeem my tablet he asked for the slip, took one look at it and requested the total for redeeming. Because this unprofessional associate failed to do his job and ask me for proper identification to verify i am in fact the slip holder, literally any person could have taken that slip if it was misplaced and redeemed my tablet for themselves. I will never shop here again and i hope you get sued for having irresponsible employees.

I'll definitely be coming back to them for all my future jewelry needs--wedding bands, gifts, repairs, and more. Highly recommend!
