I used this shop to sell some jewelry and I was disappointed by their inconsistent information…read more First I went to the location near me and was told that I needed to go to their other location in order to get full price for the items I wanted to sell because they could only give me a price for the gold, not the jewels (precious stones). I explained that I'm disabled and that getting to the other location would be a hardship for me, but they insisted that's where I had to go. So I made the difficult trip to the other location and they told me there that they had no way to figure out the worth of the stones, so they would only give me a price for the gold. This means I could have sold the jewelry at the first location and didn't need to go through so much trouble and pain. Unfortunately, I had no choice but to sell to them because it's not possible for me to get around and check other shops, but they deceived me so I don't trust them to make another sale.

I don't work there I don't have any connection to this place other than being a customer. I had a fire in my apartment and lost everything except a few guitars that I had in pawn,.but I had no money. They held my stuff for a year and didn't close my ticket after finding out about my situation. Also I went to another pawn broker a few times and felt like I went to the mafia. Their rates at Paradise were so much more reasonable. I mean a million times more. I can't say enough just how much kindness they showed me. I didn't read other posts but people get mad if they don't get everything they want. Or someone was in a bad mood and they didn't like that. Trust me, you can trust them. Thank you guys
