By buying potentially valuable items from you dirt cheap and then selling them for a higher price. Remember last week when you pawned your wedding ring for $20? Well, the guy probably got at least $150 for it.. Oh well, at least you got yer fix.... (jk of course...)

The owner will pawn their things to the pawnshop & the pawnshop buy it on the low price. If the owner wanna buy back their things, the pawnshop will sell back to them with higher price.
