Express Pawn Shop

Ripoff Artists
Sell junk and lie about the condition of items…
AVOID THEM!!!
Tried to trust them but they’re in survival mode-​thus have the sorry «your fault» attitude instead of being humanistic. Sales person was rude making me wait while he spoke with his wife and kids in spite of me spending 45 minutes to try and make the purchase that I drove an hour to make. They should be shut down.
RIP OFF ARTISTS!!! I AGREE WITH THE OTHER POSTS BELOW!!!

RIP OFF RIP OFF RIP OFF!!! Do not go there they will buy your items and sell them three times the amount they paid You. For example they tried to buy my X-​Box one for $ 50 I just laughed and the ever so friendly woman tried to convince me that it is only worth what we offered. I began arguing with her about it but I eventually after so many choice words took my business else where do not go there but it is your choice and you have been warned.

This place is horrible! I brought in a Fender Kurt Cobain Jaguar ($ 1300) to get a small $ 200 loan. I kept telling the guy that it was a Kurt Cobain Jaguar because he seemed to have problems finding it on eBay. He didn’t want to listen. Finally I pulled up eBay on my phone to show him and right away he got defensive saying that it doesn’t matter what I can pull up on my phone and that I’m not able to view used prices on eBay mobile. Really dude? I buy used stuff from eBay through my phone all the time. Anyways, he then said the most he could loan me was $ 125. Are you serious? I once again told him that it’s a $ 1300 dollar guitar and he smirked and told me it wasn’t worth that much. Yes, it’s 2 months old but he could’ve easily sold it for $ 900 if for some reason I didn’t pay off the loan. Anyways, I left after the low ball offer and rudeness. I went down to the pawn shop in Chula Vista and they gladly offered me up to a $ 400 loan. I only took $ 200 though. Stay away from this place. Unless you wanted to be low balled or disrespected. A complete insult to any intelligent person.

I called and asked if they had a 50 mm lens they said yes I drove all the way there only to find out they would only sell it with the camera! they could have mentioned this on the phone. since I DIDNT ASK FOR A CAMERA

Damn is the recession hitting us that hard? Is it that bad that I have to cash in my bling bling, gold chains, platinum grills for some cash? Cash that I could be paying bills with, but instead I’d probably spend it on food or some new place just so I can Unilocal about it. Man times are tough, but fortunately we have places like Pawn shops and thrift stores to have our backs in times of need!
So I was out with mama the other day. She likes to get her hair and nails did at that Hollywood Nails place right there on Highland. I hate going there with her. I always end up sitting there watching people stare at me as they dry their nails under that UV light thingy… awkward…so I decide to take a stroll and see what other shops are right there in that plaza.
I come across Express Pawn. Now I never really understood the concept of «pawning» things… only thing that came to mind that was close was «PWN’ing» someone… for all my online gamers u know what I mean (if not :
PWN (verb)
1. An act of dominating an opponent.
2. Great, ingenious; applied to methods and objects.
Originally dates back to the days of WarCraft, when a map designer mispelled «Own» as «Pwn». What was originally supose to be «player has been owned.» was «player has been pwned».)
ok excuse the geek in me… as I was saying… I really never knew the concept of Pawning till I walked in the store. I was curious so I asked exactly what they did. I guess from what I learned is that you bring in your goods and they give ya cash for it. Easy as that! Kinda like the thrift stores… I mean if you got extra stuff laying around why not right?
So I leave the store with thinking about all the bling bling and gold I have laying around that I can trade in for cash… hmmmm…thinking even harder…
Wait I don’t even have bling bling (my cubic zirconium earrings dont count!) and gold chains… damn…gotta find the next way of coming up!
*runs to Hollywood Nails*…“Mooomm…do u have any jewelry chillin at home…“
I need a job… anyone know where they are hiring Respiratory Therapists… hahaha
