What Do Pawnshops Have to Offer?

what does the pawnshop have to offer?

Pawn shops are staples in their communities.

Don’t believe me? I can guarantee that by the end of this blog, you will.

Pawn shops have a ton to offer that not everybody may realize. From check cashing to loans, the shop can make life easier for people in our community.

did you know?

Pawn Shops are considered financial institutions.

That's right my friends. Kind of like a bank, pawn shops have to adhere to the exact same rules as your local bank, such as registering as a Money Services Business and being audited by the State Bank Department.

The shop is held to strict lending rules and regulations but can offer helpful services to anybody that walks through the door.

Let me explain.

check cashing

Need to cash that stimmi check? How about your paycheck? Don’t have a bank you call home? Shoot over to the pawn shop.

Not only will we cash your check. We will cash it for 1%! Yes, you read that right, 1%.

Good luck trying to find a deal like that. 

We know how hard it is to find a place that won’t charge an arm and a leg just to get the money that you worked so hard for all week.

We can help make it right!

pawn loans

This is a service that we are glad to offer anyone that walks through the doors.

Bring in your old gaming console, a television, jewelry, you name it and we can make a deal.

The beauty of a loan at the shop is you don’t need any credit! That’s right, your item is your collateral. Pay off your pawn loan and then come pick up your stuff. It’s that easy.

Not to mention, the one thing different about our loans is that they are non-recourse. This means that if you pay late or don’t pay at all, your credit will never be affected. Literally no one will know that you defaulted on a loan except for you and the pawn shop.

firearm sales

We sell all kinds of guns, rifles, and shotguns, as well as accessories!

There is no need to go to an overpriced gun shop. We have it all!

From new out of the box Glocks to used Berettas, you will find the gun you are looking for at the pawn shop. Our inventory changes often so make sure to check in regularly for the next best deal on firearms of all kinds.

ffl transfers

If you were to buy a gun online, you might know that you can’t have that bad boy shipped directly to your house.

Super inconvenient yes, but we can help with that!

The shop has what is called a FFL (Federal Firearm’s License). That makes us the middleman when it comes to buying your gun online. 

It’s simple, find that perfect firearm online.

Select Pocket Pawn as your FFL.

Your new piece arrives at the shop.

You pay the low low price of $20 for the transfer fee.

Fill out and pass your background check.

Take your gun home!

we buy your stuff

We love buying your gently used items! Cleaning out that garage? Spring cleaning? Need to make room so your house is less cluttered? Bring it down to the shop!

One of our qualified pawnbrokers will find a price that works for everyone, and you will walk out of the shop with cold, hard cash!

we buy your gold and silver

Gold and silver bullion are a hot commodity and we want your unwanted scrap gold and silver.

Take a look at what you have in the jewelry box that you haven’t worn in ages and bring it in.

Go gold and silver hunting at yard sales and see what you find.

However you decide to build up your stash of gold and silver, bring it in and let us test it and give you an offer you can’t refuse.

do you believe me now?

The truth is, the pawnshop is a staple in your community. They have so much to offer, from financial services to firearm transfers. The pawnshop plays a huge role in serving any and all customers that decide to walk through the doors. Do yourself a favor, the next time you need to put a little extra cash in your pocket, sell your gold or silver, transfer your firearm, or if your just looking for something cool at an incredibly low price, come check us out.

You won’t regret it!
