  The best place to buy or sale at a reasonable price. Been with them since 1982 in Danville when Don had it in Champaign till the new owners took over for about 21/2 years ago. 💘 all you guys.

  The staff was friendly and gave us a fair deal for the rings we didn't want. It was a lot cleaner than the last pawn shop we went to.

  I took an external hard drive in and was told they would take it. However I didn’t have all the cords. Ok no problem I’ll come back. Come back a week later and was told we don’t take those... told them what was said the week before and they said we can’t test it so we can’t take it. Either you take something or you don’t. Not depends on who I talk to. Hadn’t had any problems in the past but the inconsistency in employees has told me not to go back.

  I purchased my laptop there a few months ago and was extremely happy with the staff. They were very kind and helped explain how the Apple operating system worked, which was important since I had never used an Apple computer. They also have good prices on new and used power tools and always have something in that I can use. Their prices for selling is fair and a lot better than some of the local competitors, I only pawned 1 item and their interest rate and payment options were very reasonable. Overall all I think this is the best pawn shop in town, the only downside is it can sometimes be hard to find parking, other than that an awesome store and staff.

  This is THE go-to place for tools. I haven't had to haggle with them over their "miscellaneous" bin and sockets, they are always priced fairly. If there is some random tool you need you oughta check here before buying new, you can likely get it for a quarter. Missing a socket? This place has plenty of them, too. I noticed last time that they have a 20% off on power tools going on, I will definitely be back!

  The staff and shop have totally removed the stigma of a pawn shop. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and have integrity. I have made many purchases there including but not limited to t.v's, tools, camera's games for systems, jewelry, guitars and other instruments. I only had 1 piece malfunction and they immediately took care of it. On the other end in a tight pinch they have always been able to help me out. I can not say enough positive comments to do them justice. Honorable people in a sometimes difficult spot. You can always trust them.

  Every time I try to pawn anything, which is what they are a pawn shop, they never take anything because they say they have too many already. If you need a short term cash loan, I do not recommend going there, but if your buying something they are a little better. The only flaw with that is they charge bout 10% more than retail but their return policy is only 7 days. They should do at least 15 days. Like it or not, just stating my experience there. Hope it's helpful.

  I went to sell my keyboard, and told them that I wanna do a rather low price for the stuff (just need it gone). They say they can do it, and I, out of humor, asked if the price can go up, something they obviously don’t want to do. The excuse they gave me was: “If it is a smaller keyboard it would be easier for us to move it around” What!? Although I knew it beforehand, their hilariously unprofessional response nevertheless pained me as it assured me that I was being ripped. I wonder if they came up with lame excuses like this with their other purchases and tried to rip their customers and not give a damn about dignity. But don’t take the risk, there are other pawn shops around. I will just consider myself buying the laugh for the year from their “house of clowns”
