  I've come here many times through the years. Not too bad

  I have done a LOT of business with these guys over the last 14 years, and will do much, much more. I have bought stuff as well as pawned stuff. While they may not be the most friendly bunch I've ever dealt with, they are also not rude. They are all just business-like. One reason for that may be that they are a very large pawn shop and the shop usually has several customers and so they need to conduct business! They will treat you with respect even if what you have is not something they want. They always try to greet each person when they come in and let you know that they'll help you when they've finished dealing with people who are ahead of you. If you want a place to chat, this probably isn't it. Yes, of course they routinely low-ball stuff, but they're a pawn shop, not antique collectors. One result of low-balling is that it increases the chance that you'll come back to get your stuff. In response to the statement that they charge outrageous fees, that's not true (for a pawn shop). Another reason for their need to low-ball is the allowable interest rate in this state. The State of WA limits the interest rate to 5% a month. As a comparison, in Iowa the allowable interest rate is 20% per month. If you come back and pay off your stuff, they are genuinely happy about it. If you don't, they have overhead costs, your stuff may sit in their showcases for months and they may possibly never sell it. They are there to make a profit and if they didn't, they wouldn't be there. They are NOT ripping you off. Most of the people who think these guys are ripping them off just don't understand business, especially the pawn business. The owner, Randy, is completely honest and voluntarily makes things right. If what you want to give them is "hot", don't take it here because he will cooperate with police. While their prices aren't the lowest, they often will "deal" with you on the price. In summary, they are simply business-like and I have never seen them be rude to anyone in the many times I've been there. They don't have a problem with anyone and the people who have problems with them are those who are impatient (and don't want to wait when they're busy), those who simply don't understand how their kind of business has to operate and those who expect too much money for a loan that is secured by property. Remember, if you take something in to be pawned, they are LOANING you money, not buying it from you. In case you are interested, I am NOT a paid reviewer, in any way. I'm just a long-term customer who knows these guys well and have always been 100% satisfied with them. That doesn't mean that I've always been happy with what they offered me to pawn stuff, but that's how they have to do business.
