Tools
When purchasing new tools, they are costly. Many individuals justify the cost by claiming that they are practically unbreakable and will last a lifetime. We believe that this is a compelling incentive to purchase tools from a pawn shop. While certain objects may deteriorate over time, tools remain in excellent condition. They do not need to be changed every year, unlike electronics, thus tools that worked for someone’s father 50 years ago can still operate well for you today.
Jewelry
While the specifics of your purchase may vary depending on what you’re purchasing and other considerations, you should anticipate to pay around half as much for jewelry from pawn shops as you would at full retail pricing. This is a step discount, and there is usually a huge selection available.
Some individuals are hesitant to purchase old jewelry since it is generally such a personal item. However, bear in mind that if you pay full price for jewelry in your local jewelry store, it is likely that it is not brand new. The stones might have been relocated from another item of jewelry, and the gold or silver could have been melted down after being used in another.
Musical instruments
Even if you want to buy a brand new musical instrument, you may do it at South Bay Jewelry & Loan instead of going to a big box store or a musical instrument specialized store. Why? Because musical instruments are frequently purchased with high expectations, but the owner fails to follow through and master them. They frequently bring us instruments to sell that they have never played or have only played a few times. Why pay full price for a barely used instrument when you can get a terrific bargain on one?
We invite you to contact South Bay Jewelry & Loan if you are interested in purchasing a musical instrument or if you have any concerns regarding the procedure. Come in and see for yourself, or give us a call at (310) 371-4571 and we’ll get started.
