People tend to think of pawn shops when they need a loan or want to sell items for cash. But there’s another reason to check out your local pawn shop. It’s a great place to find amazing bargains this holiday season!

Pawn shops take in a wide variety of merchandise through loans or items purchased from customers. This makes Mass pawn shops a great place to shop for bargains around the holidays. Gold and diamond jewelry, TV’s, laptops, tablets, musical instruments and a wide range of other items can be found at bargain prices.

Mass pawn shops work hard to check out the merchandise they take in. They want to make sure items are in good working condition before lending money against their value or buying items outright from customers who want fast cash. Because pawn shops are buying or lending a small percentage against the item’s value, they can resell it for significantly less than most retails. They’re able to pass the savings on to the customer, and are often willing to negotiate on the price of the item. The holidays are a terrific time to check out a local pawn shop. You’re likely to find a great selection of unique and beautiful items at bargain prices that will leave more money in your pocket.

Just in the past few months, Empire Loan has sold TV’s, collectable comic books, Waterford Crystal wine glasses and fine art — all at a fraction of the prices charged by most retailers.  And because the inventory is always changing based on what customers bring in to sell, pawn shops are great places to find unexpected treasures.  You never can tell what you’ll find when you visit a pawn shop. But at Empire Loan you can always expect to find one thing — an incredible selection of Gold, Diamond and Silver jewelry for just a fraction of the cost most retailers would charge.

This holiday season, give a unique, one-of-a-kind gift from Empire Loan — and give yourself the gift of savings!
