What's on the wall
“I had gotten a Mechtech Starscream for around 20-25 dollars in a really good condition!”
What players say again and again
“They also have pretty good prices for action figures, too.”
From the reviews
Awesome experience. Jay and Chris were very helpful and knowledgeable about the things I brought in to sell and gave me a fair trade on something I was there to purchase. They went the extra mile in not low balling one on an item they knew I could get more for on a different platform.
I'm giving Jaws their flowers bcuz they made my dream come true. They sold me my latest dream toy (LG OK99 x-boom) that was in very nice condition. It was discontinued years ago. Very hard to find. Their price was very good with two new mics for under $600. This sound system is amazing. G.O.A.T. It does everything.
The prices they have on their electronics are pretty good! I found some pretty good laptops for way less than other stores sell them for. They also have pretty good prices for action figures, too. I had gotten a Mechtech Starscream for around 20-25 dollars in a really good condition!
Was looking for specific holiday dvds no luck but employee was friendly and helpful.
Selling or trading gear at Jaws Mega Pawn & Trading Post
Jaws Mega Pawn & Trading Post 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.
