Pawning a tv?

Question

Pawning a tv?

Answer 1

People confuse PAWNING and SELLING. When you pawn and item, you get a loan based on the the current retail value of the item, and when you get paid you can go pick it back up. Great for people with bad credit or no credit to get a few extra bucks for gas or groceries or diapers before payday. If you sell it, the pawn shop will re-sell it, if they even want to buy it. I work at a pawn shop in WA, and we're not buying TVs unless they are LCD or plasma, because nobody wants a tube anymore, even a flat tube, they're junk and the picture sucks. If you were to come into my shop and ask for a loan on the TV, I'd loan you $60 if you have a remote, $50 if you don't have a remote.

Here the police dept. has a pawn squad that goes to pawn shops looking for stolen items. The pawn shop can not sell the item for 2 weeks. The pawn shops do not check, they have too many things and the lists are too long. If it is pawned before it is reported it is no different than if it was pawned after it was reported.

Answer 3

The pawn shop doesn't research for the stolen item, they will take a chance on the person selling the item. If the pawn or sale is sketchy they won't buy the item. By law pawn shops are required to hold all new items for 90 days before they may sell them.

Answer 6

20.00, you are better off selling it by word of mouth or local circular.

Answer 7

honestly forget the pawn shop cuz they will buy it for cheap and sell it back to some1 else at a higher price ur best bet is ebay or ubid cuz u will probaly get more there i had a friend who pawned a xbox and 2 controllers and 3 games got ony like 60 bucks for it so put it up online or a newspaper

Answer 8

Depends on how much in demand it is.They only offer a percentage of what they think it will sell for.And that depends on the individual.Used same pawnshop for 15 years and he knows I never miss paying him,so he sometimes will trust me for more money.

Answer 9

im being serious about this, but to pawn it, they wouldnt give you near what you paid for it, if you are lucky, they might give you between $25 and $75. depends tho on its age and condition and if it works(they will ask, as well as try it out).
