From the reviews
I had a great experience at this pawn shop. The staff was friendly, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly. They offered me a fair price for my items, and the entire process was quick and hassle-free. The shop was clean and well-organized, and I felt comfortable doing business there.
I'm very grateful to the staff for always being so attentive and professional. I had several transactions to take care of today on my lunch break, and Michael was able to get me in and out of there in minutes! Thank you!
Friendly and courteous staff, the New Guy Mike was a little timid at first but his co workers helped for a quick in an out transition. Very secure property and a wide variety of items
We came in right before closing just to ask for some help with identifying some items that I found at an estate sale and the whole group stepped in and helped! And not only did they identify them but they offered me helpful information, all while being friendly and happy guys.
Selling or trading gear at Salinas Pawn
Salinas Pawn 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.
