FAQs

What's the most a pawn shop will pay? ›

Most pawn shops offer loan amounts of 25% to 60% of your collateral's value. Be aware that pawn shops have high APRs that can make them one of the most expensive options to borrow money.

Most pawn shops do negotiate for sales – but don't expect to get more than 60% of the value of your item. Remember – their end goal is to resell your item for a profit. They don't care about the sentimental value or history, or even the unique details that add value.

The two primary ways pawnshops make money are by making personal loans and by reselling retail items.

According to the search results, pawn shops generally offer loans ranging from 25% to 60% of an item's resale value [1]. So, if you were to pawn a $1000 item, you might receive a loan amount between $250 and $600.

It's also a great way to get some money to upgrade if that's what you're looking for. Pawn or sell baseball bats, softball bats, gloves, golf clubs, tennis rackets, skis, snowboards, mountain bikes, skates, roller blades, cleats, and volleyball nets.

Pawning or selling is a personal choice. It boils down to two options: wanting to get items back or not wanting them back. If customers want their items back, then pawning is the best option. But if they want to get rid of their items, selling is the better choice.

Pawn shops that buy TVs will also pay more for a bigger screen. If your TV's screen is less than 26 inches, you'd be lucky to get over $50 for it. If your screen is greater than 42 inches, though, a pawnbroker like GEM might offer you over $200, provided the TV is one of the brands mentioned above.

Shops know they can sell tools faster (and for more money) when they are trusted brands. Bosch, DeWalt, Milwaukee, Stihl, and Snap-On will earn you the most. Usually, pawn shops will pay anywhere from $30-$200 for working tools, but you can expect that price to increase if you have any of these top performing brands.

Listen more than you speak

Unless they ask directly, your pawnbroker does not need (or want) to know where you found your item, how long you've had it, or how much you originally paid for it. In fact, disclosing too much information like this may only hurt you.

Do pawn shops expect you to haggle? ›

Yes you absolutely can negotiate prices at a pawn shop. In fact, you are expected to negotiate.

Pawnbrokers have access to value databases that list current resale prices for common items. If an item isn't listed in these databases, they may check eBay to see what customers are paying for the item. Jewelry, antiques, and historical artifacts may require a special appraisal by an expert.

Pawn stores usually pay the most for jewelry like diamonds and gold, timepieces, coins, vintage sneakers, designer purses, and handbags. However, every pawn shop can buy high-ticket items, including vehicles, real estate, and jewelry.

You receive the wholesale value of the item, as a loan. When you pay back the money, with interest, then you get your item back. If you don't redeem it, it becomes the property of the pawn shop, to sell.

Third Person Theft/Lost Property

If a pawnshop is negligent in losing or allowing the property to be stolen by a third person, then it is liable to the customer who gave the property to the pawn shop owner, if they want to pay off the loan and get their property back.
