  George who owns/runs this place. Is one of the best men I have ever meet, An def one of the best people in this type of business. Yes his place is a cluttered. Why? Cause he does not sell items he took in on hawk until he is absolutely sure that the pawn loan he gave, wont come back. Most places give 30 days. He will do years and years.. For some people. As for the other comments, How does someone like him stay in business. Well I am 42 yrs old currently, I know George has been in that same spot for 30 yrs now at least. I meet him when I was 12. He was rude and would not respond to you fast enough. He is 80 yrs old. Still working in his golden years and he honestly doesn't have too.. But still does. Now he refused to loan or buy your item. In the pawn shop business, you loan money you have to loan, and when the money is low, you stop loaning, till your loans are repaid, or until you sell enough to get your bank back up. The second part is hard to do, when you do not sell peoples items sometimes up to 5 yrs after they pawned them. When I was 24 yrs old, I had a hard week, and I pawned my tv, 30 days past, and I figured it was gone. 2 yrs later, I was in the plaza and he seen me, and asked.. You ever gonna come get your tv.. he still had it. An I was shocked, only charged me the original price that I had to pay at the 30 day mark. I may be different price wise to pick up as I have already said, I have known this man since I was a kid.. But it breaks my heart to see so many negative remarks on here. About a man that has a heart of gold. An to be honest, When I post this, we are in the middle of the covid19 outbreak.. An this man still comes to work.. and risk his life. As he is in the highest at risk percent. So people having hard times have a place to turn. Next time, dont think about yourself so much.. Think about both of you.. he may not have the money to help, or honestly, not willing to loan or buy. He may be a bit short at times.. He is over 80 yrs old. His store is cluttered. Yep, he again is over 80 yrs old, and is not a young buck.

  Place is about the size of a storage unit. It's about as organized as one too. I went in for a laptop but he said he didnt have one. I asked about the one buried under a bunch of other stuff and a good 1/4 inch of dust and he said it's not ready yet. Looked like it hasnt been ready for 7 years. The guy was really polite but wow what a mess that place is. You can barely walk 5 feet in and that's the end of your travel.

  If I could give this place zero stars, I would. I have no idea how this place had 4.6 stars when I took a look, trying to find a place to pawn my laptop and change box. My laptop is just under two years old and has absolutely no scratches, dents, missing keys, nonworking keys, etc. I took very good care of it, and I recently got a better one so I didn't need this anymore. He took a look at the laptop for about five seconds, asked how old it was and then said "I don't want it, I already got like forty of them". I asked if he possibly knew of any place that would and he refused to answer me. My boyfriend went in to try and pawn my change box because of how infuriated with how insulted I was by the old man, and he just kept on yapping on his phone, completely ignoring my boyfriend. After about ten minutes of my boyfriend standing there, he looked at it for two seconds and said, "I don't want it". Not only all of this, but the place is TRASHED and completely cluttered! Clearly this place is run by a hoarder! I would never recommend this place to anybody.

  The man my wife does business with is called, "DEUCE", he is a fair, caring man who (unlike some in the exchange business) treats people like human beings and not dollar signs. He gives a fair price for goods. Great place to go when you need cash and like to be treated with dignity and respect.

  This guy George is a red faced douchebag. He is a hoarder. Knows nothing about the junk piled up in the room. What a complete disaster. AVOID. Pure disappointment. What an A-Hole. Julie's review below is spot on!

  George is such a cool guy..... I can't tell you how many times he has helped me out, even when he didn't need what I was hawking..... He likes helping people in need, he's a very good man and business man.
