Pawn Shops

Pawnbrokers issue personal loans to people, while holding their property as collateral. Jewelry, tools, firearms, and electronics are commonly held to secure the loan. If the loan is not paid back, the goods are sold in a shop setting.

What do the three balls outside a pawn shop mean?

User Avatar

Asked by Lbelle123

The Medici family in Italy were moneylenders during the Middle Ages and operated pawnshops throughout Europe. Legend has it that they also slew a giant for King Charlemagne using three bags of rocks. These three bags became stylized into three golden balls, which became a part of their family crest and the source of the symbol we see today.

Back in Europe it was well known most people did not know how to read and write. So when people saw this symbol hanging in front of a shop, they knew it was a safe place to go to trade.

How much do pawn shops pay for watch?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on what the watch is worth (that is, its market value it its current condition), and especially on what the pawnbroker thinks he would be able to resell it for and if he believes there is an active demand for that type of item or not.

Really, the only way to know what you would get paid for any given item is to take it in and see what they offer.

The pawnbroker sells the items. That's one of the two ways that pawn shops make money. The other way is that to retrieve your item, you have to pay more than what was paid to you to hock it.

The value of an 18k gold plated necklaces worth would depend on the current buy back price and the market in your area. Naturally, the price for a necklace that is gold plated will be less than a necklace that is solid gold.

Do pawn shops buy broken televisions?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Hello,

Yes,,, pawn shops do pawn TV's. However most pawn shops today will only buy, sell and loan on digital TV's, which is basically all TV's made within the last 6 to 7 years. This will, in most cases, rule out tube TV's, although there are digital tube TV's that were made, but they will not be worth much. Basically TV's are much like computers in that they are constantly evolving so the value of TV's, older to newer as well as size, will vary. Most pawn shops will buy, sell and loan on all digital TV"s though.

I'm going to offer a bit more insight here. When you want to pawn a TV one thing that I've found of interest is that most pawn shops will decline a TV which does not have a remote control. Seemed like an odd rule to me when I first bought a pawn shop. But, really, who has a TV without a remote? Generally the only ones that come in without a remote are stolen. So, if you are trying to pawn a TV -- don't forget the remote. The TV will look stolen a bit more stolen unless you have the remote. It also helps to have the stand or the wall mounting bracket.

What do pawnbrokers do?

As a Pawnbroker you play many rolls and where many hats. For the most part you are a salesman, a jeweler, a gun dealer, an appraiser of everything and a customer service professional. There are many other aspects besides those but these are the main ones. If you are referring to a transaction,,, basically a pawnbroker determines the value of an item, whether it be a radio, a diamond ring, or a motorcycle. The amount of cash offered is based off of that value. Remember there is always room to barter

How much money can you get for selling an iPod at a pawn shop?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It varies from Pawn Shop to Pawn Shop because every shop will pay a different price. You probably will not get as much as you payed for the ipod just because you are selling it and you are selling it to a pawn shop and if you have scratches or marks on it then the sell price will go down even more and if it already has songs on it the price would go down more too. So there are a lot of things that come in to play I would ask for about twenty dollars less that you payed for it that is still a good price and if needed you could go down even more from there and still get some money in your pocket.

Can you purchase items from a pawn shop online?

Asked by Wiki User

Yes you can, but I would not suggest buying items from there. I would first go to my local pawn shop to see what items they have that I want to buy ,then decide weather I want to buy online or not.
