“You spend $4,000 on a fur coat.... after two months, the price drops to $400. Handbags that sell for $1,500 are $200 at consignment”.

Okay, YOU and I need to go shopping together! I will buy you lunch and everything! I am the type of person that gets a natural “high” if I can get what I need/want for way, way less.

When you go to a Pawn shop, you better know what you are taking there , and what you are buying.

If you know as little about Jewelry as I do, you should stay home. They may be as honest as the day is long, but they are going to have an asking price, and if you know Jewelry you will probably not go for the asking price.

Pawn shops are bargaining places, and if you cannot recognise the bargain, it probably isn’t one.They are there to make money, and the prices are not written in stone.

I do kow tools and most tools I see in the pawn shop are way overpriced, I can assume their jewelry is too.,
