I am a total treasure seeker!…read more If I had the time I would seek out every garage sale, auction or second hand store that I could find in any given city. Many times I have found incredible items on whatever shelf at some abandoned junk store or some tattered box at a flea market. One auction in small town Quebec at an estate sale I came away with a box for $5, but what I really came away with were around 30 sets of demitasse cups and saucers, a few were Royal Daltons and one was a commemorative one for some special event in Ireland in the 40s, it was worth well over $200. That being said, I have had my eye on Rocky Mountain Pawn Ltd, its building is right on Macleod Trail and it has this huge sign painted on the side of it. The traffic wasn't that bad that day so I swung a quick right into the parking lot. This shop is fairly clean and organised, the owner Roger has a great eye for things and is really selective of what he brings into the store. The tools are really clean, the bikes, the electronics area is well laid out. I saw 16 to 30 GB iPods there for less than $100. He also has a fine selection of used instruments, all for pretty good prices. I like collecting gold pieces, it is merely as an investment thing because gold will never devaluate but our Canadian dollar can, so whenever I have the chance I purchase a ring or two. Rocky has a nice clean selection of gold and diamond rings and they are pretty cheap too what they are, I came away with a nice gold band for under $50 that day. I am glad I came into this pawn shop; it is one of the nicest ones I have seen in the city and with great customer service; in fact I am planning on being a weekly customer.

Kind of a dirty little shop with a poor selection of useful items and it smells like pizza…read more... That's because of the pizza place next door, and that was the only appealing thing about the place. They had some real crappy guitars, a few amps (one or two might be worth something), a few snowboards, helmets, snow globes, old microwaves, etc, etc. Not much worth a damn.... But he was selling a Gretzky rookie card for $700. That was probably the highest priced item in the store....

Not a lot of selection in this pawnshop. Crappy bikes, guitars, golf clubs and even a karaoke…read moremachine. I don't remember the price on that, but it wasn't worth it.

Selling stolen goods. Don't bother with this place…read more Recently had a laptop stolen from me in a B & E. They were the closest pawn shop so I called them to to see if it turned up there. I did not have the serial number, but I could describe it because of distinctive markings. NOTE: I was not looking to get it back for free, nor was I looking for any info on who possibly sold it to them. But due to the fact that I had important stuff on there, I would have gladly just purchased it back. Now I actually don't know if they have it or not because they hung up on me before I could get as far as describing it to them. But the speed at which I was shut down tells me they probably know full well they are selling hot merchandise and operating just on this side of the law (I used to work at a used electronics store and have actually helped out people in similar situations.) It would have been easy, and at no cost - even a profit for them - to help another human being in a tough time. This is your stereotypical sketchy pawn shop. Avoid.

Cash Canada is going through some name change, I think it was originally called Collateral…read moreAdvantage but now it is called Cash Canada. From what I saw it is a good thing they changed their name because I didn't see any advantages of buying anything in their pawn shop except for maybe DVD's at 3 bucks. Although the store is extremely well laid out and super clean, I found tons of stuff to be overpriced and in not so good condition. I think a person would find better deals on Kijiji and Craigslist and items that are in much better condition. The folks there are extremely friendly however and there were a lots of people browsing through the store or perhaps waiting to pawn things. This is not my top pick for a Pawn shop in Calgary but perhaps they buy things at top dollar.
