What is the difference between a pawn shop and a pawn loan?

How does a pawn shop work?

  • i have never been to a pawn shop before, but i would like to pawn my old mac computer and my xbox..i heard that you can get a loan on items at a pawn shop and you pay the money back in like 30 days then you get your items back...i just dont know how it works, and would a pawn shop take a computer and xbox?? i know that i went to gamestop and they do not buy xboxs anymore. so i have nowhere else to sell it, so im thinkin pawning it is the answer.

  • Answer:

    Pawn shops usually take anything and everything as long as they work (they will check to see if it works usually). They will give you a price for it and then they will tell you what the payback price is (usually $20 or so higher). Most pawnshops want you to payback in 30 days OR they give you an option of coming in and paying an amount to extend it for another 30 days. If you do not want the item back than don't go and pay to get it back. After 30 days they will sell it. Most pawnshops will not give you much money though (especially for older items). My sister usually pawns her xbox 360 and gets just about $100 for an older xbox you can count on a lot less than that. It also depends on how many of that item they have and how well they sell. But its also a decent way to get some fast cash if you really need it.

pawn shops will buy your goods as well as hold them for up to 30 days if you want to buy them back -with interest.that is how they make money.it's a legal type of loan sharking business
