From the reviews
I've always felt welcome at Ace Pawn Shop, which wasn't the case the one and only time I visited one of their competitors (the ones located on 17th St.) years ago. Stores are all organized and clean. Ace Pawn carries a wide variety of items, which is a great way to keep customers coming back, and it works!
I love digging around pawn shops and flea markets for vintage goods and stuff I can’t afford to purchase at retail prices. This place was always my first stop. Good selection of items. Good people working there. Every employee I ever interacted with (including the owner) was fair and honest.
Honestly I am probably not there idea customer. I go in and look around regularly but more often than not leave empty handed. But their workers are always pretty attentive. When I do buy something it's always a good deal and an easy transaction.
Amazing staff they went above and beyond to help me with my purchase. And they gave me a great deal on top of that. I can’t say enough good things about the guys at Ace Pawn! Thank you!
Selling or trading gear at Ace Pawn & Gold
Ace Pawn & Gold comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
