I went in to sell some jewelry I hadn't worn since my "power suit" days and not only was treated with much greater courtesy than I would ever have expected from a pawn shop, but also had a really fun and interesting conversation with the owner while he tested and evaluated what I'd brought.

Because this unprofessional associate failed to do his job and ask me for proper identification to verify i am in fact the slip holder, literally any person could have taken that slip if it was misplaced and redeemed my tablet for themselves. I will never shop here again and i hope you get sued for having irresponsible employees.

I really wasn't looking forward to the task. At first, I took some collections of medallions my mother had collected over decades. I was given a direct, informative description of every item.
