The type of client who brings things _to_ the shop may not be who you want
in the shop. The same five fingers that lifted what he brings can work
on
what you've got.

Pawnbrokers have to consult some general reference to price items. I
imagine it's MSRP on the internet.


One of the clerks in the pawn shop I frequent compares the cost that is
marked on an item with what he finds on EBay. IMHO if you pay what an item
is marked in a pawn shop without asking something like, "how much do you
want for this?" or bargaining then you've probably bought a few bridges in
the Brooklyn area before.
