If you are tired of waiting for your stimulus check or are not eligible for one, you might be wondering: what could I pawn that could get me $500? Of course, this depends largely on the brand and condition of the items you bring in, but at South Bay Jewelry & Loan, we buy many products that could potentially get you $500. Keep reading to get a few ideas, and feel free to call us at (310) 371-4571 or stop by our shop if you have any questions.
Certain Computers
Over the years, computers have gotten cheaper and cheaper to buy. As a result, it is not as easy as it once was to get $500 for a used computer. However, there are a few exceptions. If you have a gaming computer with all the bells and whistles and it is in great shape, then it could get you $500. Likewise, if you have a high-end laptop, you could get $500. While most laptops sell for one or maybe two hundred dollars, some brands can sell for $500. Call us to learn which ones are worth the most.
Televisions
Once again, most TVs are so affordable these days that you cannot necessarily count on getting $500 for a TV you bought a few years ago. However, if you need $500 and you have a Samsung Smart TV, Rare LG C6, or other high-end TVs, then you could get $500. For example, if you bought a TV six months ago for $3,000, you might be able to get $500 for it today.
High-End Cameras
Are you noticing a theme here? The items you are likely to get the most money for are going to be at the highest end of the category. You are not going to get $500 for an entry-level point and click camera, but some of the camera brands we love to see include Leica, Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Hassleblad, Voigtlander, Panasonic, and Rollei. If you have a high-end camera, give us a call or stop by to see what we can offer you.
Tool Sets
Tools are one of the most valuable items you can pawn at a pawn shop, but by themselves, most tools are not worth $500. However, if you have a toolset that is in good shape and is made by a quality manufacturer, then you could end up with $500 or more. Top brands include Craftsman, Stanley, Snap-On, Bosch, Milwaukee, DeWalt, and Makita.
