Pawn shops are places that pay "quick cash" at their own "highest prices paid'. Those who are in dire need of cash do not realize thats all their going to get,, and its a last minute pay house. its funny to watch these characters on TV and in real life come into these places and expect a big payout. For some of the financially unfortunate ,, there are no other alternatives than these places,, and for those who know that hey can do better someplace else but are too lazy or inpatient,,come into the pawn shops and try to bargain with the owners. Unless it benefits the owners they really dont give a crap if they get the item or not. One thing is for sure though.....pawn shops have some good stuff if you really know what you are looking for,, especially around the casino areas.
