Does anyone else visit Pawnshops?

[Possessed Freak]

I got my SLR from a pawn shop. Canon AE-1 Program body and 2 lenses... 25 bucks.

I never have, but have always wanted to.

I never seem to have spare time, at the right time.

I visited three or four today on my day off just to see what was there.

I found Wedding Crashers on DVD for $3, saw a single mom pawning her kids

Anyone else with noteable finds?

I stopped there. :Q

I kind of feel bad for Chumlee. He's like the not-so-bright guy who hangs around the friend with money hoping that he can get a piece of the pie if he can just be nice enough.

Did you see him negotiating to buy something?

Offer was $100
Chumlee: I'll give you $2000

I bought a stainless / gold Rolex Submariner at a pawnshop in Vegas several years back. Some poor sap lost all his money. I was there for a week and the first time I looked at it, it was priced at $8500. After a few days and a few visits, I got it for $4200, the day we flew out.

You can negotiate in pawnshops. Of course they are going to price you high to start.
