Disappointed...no, Devastated I want to preface this by…read moresaying I know if I sell anything, ANYTHING, at a pawn shop, I am going to be ripped off. So will you. This is an industry that almost exclusively profits from desperate people. They're in the business of buying valuable items for a fraction of its worth- YOUR item-then reselling it for double, or more what they paid you for it. And we thank them for being kind enough to rip us off, because now you have something in your pocket, whereas before you did not. You will never get half of what your item is valued at in the current market, and most people know this and do what they feel is necessary in that situation. That said, pawn shops, like mechanics, have a responsibility to be honest, fair, and transparent with their customers.​ Unfortunately, this was not my experience with Michael. Buyer's remorse, or seller's remorse in my case, is always too bad, so sad. But as someone who patronized this person's business TWICE, I had hoped that my first experience wasn't the rule but the exception. For example, my silver was not weighed in front of me. And I was foolish to not push the issue- because he's doing me a favor, see? Buying my silver even though "it's not worth much." Because pawn shops are in the business of doing charity work, right? If we're to believe this honest salesman, my 7 rings and 2 pendants weighed 45 grams. And unfortunately, I made the decision to believe that he was honest, because I needed groceries. And for the price of "48" grams of silver, I was blessed with 45 dollars. Unfortunately, my silver is not as valuable as the silver he likes, I guess, but luckily he wanted to help me. He also didn't want to make me wait, because his computer was actually acting up, so I just signed the blank "receipt." For him, of course, not me. But like George Bush, fool me once...um.. can't get fooled again? If you're me you can. Went back, second and last time. Same scenario, only I had the presence of mind to take pictures of what I was trying to sell. Still not valuable, still never saw the scale, but this time, it was 30 dollars for "40" grams. I'm no jeweler, and I don't know what each piece weighed. But I did some research for comparison. And I'll go back and PUBLICLY APOLOGIZE if I can see the scale- my guess is my things...well, his now- are still there, because there's nothing displayed. At all. I don't know what is done with the items bought, but there's no showroom or displays, just a counter and locked door in a small storefront. So short story long, I don't recommend. Tried twice, fooled twice, shame on me, but also, Hollywood Pawn, you suck. And Im including the pictures of some of the items I sold, so anyone can eyeball them and let me know Im retarded and also wrong, if they happen to be in the business of accurately determining the weight of silver. There was a lot, but it's not quite half. I'm embarrassed. And I wish I hadn't gone to Hollywood Pawn.

This was my first time going to a pawn shop to buy a present and pawn some items. After driving…read morearound and checking out some of the other pawn shops in the area and comparing prices, I continued on to Reliable Jewelry and Loan. Upon entering the store, I was greeted politely and courteously. One of the staff had noticed that I had parked on the street and mentioned that there was free parking in the back, so I moved my car and parked in the lot. The staff was helpful and took their time in explaining the process and procedures of pawning items as I explained this was my first time. After having visited other shops in the area, I already knew the approximate value of my items and was happy with what they offered, so I decided to pawn my items here. With the additional funds, I was able to get a present for my girlfriend for our anniversary. I was pleased with the selection and cost. Another bonus is that it is less than a block from the CTA Brown Line Kedzie stop. The next time that I come here to pick up my item, I will be able to just hop off the train on my way home from work, get my items and hop back on. I would recommend Reliable Jewelry and Loan to anyone.

They carry 18K as well as 14K jewelry. I've gone there often to have a battery replaced on a watch - I'm usually charged about $8 and it takes them about 5 minutes to do it. They have a guy on duty who does jewelry repair so when I've taken a broken item to them I've gotten an estimate within a few minutes and return for the repaired item the next week. An older male friend of mine wanted to have a gold wedding band with a nice design enlarged so it would fit over his arthritic knuckle. He'd gone to get an estimate downtown whose repairman said they could do it for $600. This was a solid gold- fairly wide ring with a continuous pattern. I urged him to get a 2nd estimate. Reliable sized it for $60. Perfect fit. You can't tell where the additional width was added as the craftsman continued the pattern in the ring. I consider this family owned shop my neighborhood jewelry/watch repair go to place for fair prices and great service.

If you want fast cash and quick loans, and none of your family, friends or acquaintances are willing to lend you any more money, and the bank is not an option, then pawnshops are the way to go. Staff at the B&B pawnshop offer reasonable prices. But you cannot get any loans for a VHS player you bought 20 years ago, no matter how "barely used" or "like new" it is.
