Pawn Shops During The Holidays
Hi, this is Luis for expertvillage.com and we're going to be talking about pawn shops. Today I'm here at Inland Jewelry and Loan. Pawn shops are great for the holidays. The reason why I say that is because you're going to save money when you come into a pawn shop especially right around the key days like the 23rd, the 24th, the 26th, you know right around the 30th and things like that. Why? Because you're going to get a good deal and during the holidays, especially Christmas time, you're going to get an extra deal because we're trying to get of merchandise that's been here for you know the year so that we can put out more merchandise. But even better than that is we're always trying to reach a goal during December. For example our goal this year is like $120,000 in sales. And if we get that sale we get a bonus. So, if we reach that goal, it's better for us and you're helping us reach that goal. How do we reach that goal? By making sales. That means that we're going to give you a better deal on anything, we're going to give you 50, 60, 70, whatever it takes to make that goal. We offer 4 month loans on anything of value and basically that is called a pawn. A lot of people refer to it as hawking, but it is a pawn. We also buy stuff right off from people. For example if you want to upgrade your television and you want to get another television, you bring us your older TV, hopefully it's not too old and we'll buy it straight out from you. But services also include things like payday loans, which is basically if a person needs to borrow a maximum of $255 in the state of California, we can loan you money based on a quick background check and you writing us a check for $300 until your next payday. When that pay day comes around we either cash the check or you come and pay us the check. But we offer other things like full layaways. We offer 4 months on layaway, a lot of companies will only offer 30 days. We offer 4 months on layaways and we actually offer more than that because if someone is buying something that is expensive, we'll give them more time than 4 months to pick up their layaway.
