Pawn shops are not just a place to make a “quick buck.” With a buyer’s eye and a little insider knowledge, it’s easy to get a good deal. See which items in your home have the most worth, how to optimize their value, and how to make a smart purchase at the shop.

What to Buy And Sell At Pawn Shops

Buy:

Designer clothes and handbags sell fast at pawn shops. To grab a hot ticket item before it sells, request it online. If you don’t need a particular item and enjoy a variety of high-quality articles, consider the shop your own personal shopping mall.

Sell:

Save time sorting through your closet by requesting a closet service. A Max Pawn stylist will visit to pick your most saleable items. Note: Just because the stylist likes an item doesn’t mean you need to give it up. Use your visit to narrow down what you want to keep and sell. Still not sure? Upload a picture of your item here and we’ll make an offer.

Jewelry, Watches, and Precious Metals

Buy:

From mesmerizing vintage jewelry to the hottest fashion trends, the shelves of a luxury pawn shop are a marvel to explore. Each item has a history and an origin that makes it enticing and meaningful. Prepare to be dazzled by the unexpected. Have your eyes on specific luxury jewelry item? Request it here.

Sell:

Before parting with a sentimental item, ask your pawn shop to make an offer. Aside from a few luxury items such as engagement rings, most jewelry has limited resale value. Instead, focus on the value of the materials and the brand. The worth of designer jewelry is determined by the brand, while most jewelry is priced by its make-up: the quality of the precious metals, the cut and purity of the gems, and the total quantity of usable material. Before selling your grandmother’s necklace, come to Max Pawn Luxury, a trusted retailer.

Power tools

Buy:

You won’t find rusted or broken tools at a reputable pawn shop. Each item is thoroughly inspected before it hits the shelves. Nonetheless, it’s a good idea to ask about the return policy before checking out. Power tools are precision instruments - what matters most is how well they operate when put to work.

Sell:

To get the best price on an old power tool, include as many parts in the package as possible. Track down all the spare parts and accessories you can, and wipe them down with WD40. Include a manual - either the original or a new one printed from the web. Lastly, find a suitable container for all the parts, preferably the original packaging. Any relevant items you can include will sweeten the deal, and fetch you a better price

Electronics

Buy:

Pawn shops are a treasure trove of vintage video games and retro music players. They’re also a great place to get a deal on practical items. Stop in or visit our online store to see what you might find.

Sell:

Look around your home for things that have fallen to disuse: speakers, keyboards, even whole computers that are just taking up space. Even older electronics, such as floppy disk drives and retro game systems, are in-demand for the right buyer. Sort through your junk drawer for accessories and cords to electronics you no longer own. Future you will thank you for it.
