Pawn Shops

Although each pawn shop is different, most pawn shops will buy anything of value.

Some will, but it all depends on the shop.

yes

no one knows this answer but if you go to a pawn shop and you are at leat 30 you can find this answer

Americans call the pawnshop just that, a 'pawnshop'. Thought many people refer to the act of taking out a loan not as 'pawning' but as 'hocking'.

Access the the reports you are referencing 'the APS or automated pawn system' are confidential, encrypted messages that are only available to police departments. If you are concerned that some of your property has been stolen/pawned without your permission you will need to contact your local police department.

Around $400,000 on average.

Yes, most pawnshops will take in anything of value as long as they have the room. Smaller shops may be unable to store and display treadmills where larges ones can.

Sure, a 417 stamp would indicate 10 karat gold. Any pawnshop in the country will buy your gold jewelry as long as they can verify that it is not plated.

Normally, yes, unless they have already sold it. They have not sold it. They say I have been held up by a government agency that approves gun ownership? What is with that? I did not buy the gun at the pawn shop, so the Brady Bill background check and waiting period should not apply. I only borrowed money on it to fix my car. In light of the recent Supreme Court ruling guaranteeing my second adnendment right to own a gun, isn't the pawn shop violating the law in refusing to let me reclaim the gun? It depends on what they mean. When you redeem a pawned gun, they have to run a background check on you, just like when you buy the gun for the first time (even though you're not buying it from the pawn shop. It's not their rule, it's a federal thing). If there is a waiting period in your state, then you have to abide by that waiting period. If not, then whatever normal paperwork is required by the Feds (a 4473 form) and any other paperwork, if any, that is required by your state. If your state does not do insta-checks, then it's however long it takes for the paperwork to come back. Here in Tennessee, it's pretty much instant, done by computer. Hope that helps. Its the federal thing that is in question here. I thought the recent SC ruleing upheld my rights, reguardless of any state or federal agency that doesn't like it. What can I do?

If you are looking for a good deal on brand name merchandise, a pawnshop is the ideal place to look. You can often get like-new merchandise for 20-50% of MSRP prices at your local shop. If you are short on cash, or want to dispose of some of your old property a pawn shop offers a quick, easy way to get cash for your stuff--or to offer you a small, short term loan that no bank would dare touch.

I worked at a pawnshop for about 1 year. Most shops have a 10 digit code. For example, if you take a ten letter word and make each letter represent a number. so if your ten letter word was "WASHINGTON" Since there are two n's in the word I would replace the last one with an X. Now your word is "WASHINGTOX" So if the pawn shop paid $15 for an item, then on the back of the tag they would write a WI. See the W=1 the A=2 the S=3 the H=4 the I=5 the N=6 the G=7 the T=8 the O=9 and the X=0. So $35 would be SI $120 would be WAX. $8 would just be T. This way the salesman can look at the code, and know what mark up they need to barter with the client. In most cases they need a minimum of 100% mark up. Hope this helps.

I don't know why not. It sells really well on eBay too. I don't know why not. It sells really well on eBay too.

Some do, but many don't. It depends on the local market for the particular shop, it would be best to call your local shop and ask.

No, a convicted felon is not allowed, by law, to work at a business that deals in firearms.

When a person sells a firearm they essentially sign a contract stating that the firearm is in fact said person's property. The pawn shop cannot treat everyone as criminals and it rarely happens, but it does from time to time. The original owner must file a police report when firearm was stolen. There is some paper work and steps but it will be returned.

It is a relatively simple process. Start with your town or city hall. You start by applying for a business license. You will also need a second hand metals license to buy gold and jewelry. This requires a criminal background check. Once approved by the local police chief and town manager you get the license. You may be required to post a surety bond for the metals/jewelry license. The state requires you to have a $50,000 surety bond for the pawnbrokers license. Check on the web for Virginia Code 54.1-4000. It covers just about everything concerning pawnbrokers and the requirements to get licensed. I just opened a place in SW VA and it cost about $25K to get up and running.
