Wanted to sell my 14k gold bracelet - 7 pennyweight. Weighed at the post office. I did my homework. going price was $32/pennyweight. I would have taken $30. My boyfriend has purchased from Essex pawn for years, and suggested I go to them first. So I went in (alone). He looked at it, weighed it (as expected - 7 pennyweight), offered me $14/pennyweight! I was insulted and said, Ill take nothing less than $32. He came up to $28 and I walked out! Had I not done my homework, they would have taken advantage of me. Not who I would want to do business with. I went to another pawn shop (on Merrit Blvd) with my boyfriend, they offered me $32/penny weight - as soon as I walked in. I shared what Essex Pawn did. They hear that a lot from Essex - course consider the source, but I didnt even have to negotiate the going rate - you decide who you would rather do business with. I wont use Essex Pawn anymore and neither will my boyfriend. Good luck. Others have reported customer service was excellent. they were prompt to serve me and were very polite. I wont take that away from them. You decide on your own priorities.

I had been in this shop to browse not too long ago, and noted that the musical instruments, (acoustic guitars) of which I know somewhat about were at best average. They were on sale though for market value or more and I thought that was kind of ridiculous. I could buy the same guitars in a music store new for the same price or less. I stopped in just today to pawn a cordless drill in good to very good condition that I intended to come back for in a week or two. (So we are talking about him picking up 7 to 9 dollars or so just for holding it) I was told he could not do it. No reason given just, "Cant do it." No skin of my nose I can pawn it in a number of other places. So I would say that if you have something of value to pawn it is really hit and miss at this shop. I noticed also that some of the tools that were on display to sell had not even the simple dirt cleaned off of them. I do think he is only there to buy gold and should really advertise that way.

been here several times to pawn things when waiting for my contracts to pay out. usually have a good experience, but i will say that they need an expert in musical and audio gear. Doesnt seem that they understand the difference between pro gear and pro-sumer gear. Also, its hard to get them to understand that not every model from a manufacturer is weighted equally. Manufacturers make beginners gear, which is what they are familiar with, and they also make pro gear, which they cant wrap their heads around price differences. Like i said, i usually have a pleasant experience, but good luck if you are trying to pawn or sell anything that a true professional musician or audio engineer would want or need.

had bought 2 GPS systems a cpl yrs back was treated great n gave me good deal on buying them both. Have never pawned or sold anything there However a week ago I used their email contact, to get a feel of interest in items I have and needed some cash was hoping to get a reply without me having to carry all the stuff up there,,, Never had a reply or phone call why have an email contact if NO ONE is going to reply? so not impressed with their attention to prospective customers to load n unload our car just to be turned down isnt worth the trip.. is why we chose the email route yet no reply.....

They obviously think everyone that comes there is a Crack head or some irresponsible person that will leave their school supplies in their store because I was tool if I believed every person that said they be back for their stiff I wouldnt have merchandise. Really..I thought a person and periodontal people were two different things?..needless to say this is unacceptable if you follow Alove4muzix...do not give them your business...since we all are the same

I came in thinking it was gonna be a rip off like other pawn shops. My man Brian hooked me up with the deal of the century. I usually dont name my price when they ask because they always go like $100 lower. I was thinking I would get a buck for my tv and I asked him how much I could borrow, he immediately said 150. I took the deal on the spot. Check out Essex pawn before you get ripped off somewhere else.

My boyfriend and I have been coming to this pawn shop for many years. He has bought many tools here, we recently bought a Wii U here, and just got my wedding set here, as well. They are very knowledgeable, and always friendly. They are willing to negotiate pricing which is always a plus. I absolutely LOVE this pawn shop. Keep up the good work guys!!!

I have been coming to Essex Pawn for years and they always treat me right. Howard makes sure that his prices are fair and he is always willing to negotiate, especially on higher dollar items. Whenever I need an electronic item (TV, video game, laptop) I always check with Howard first. I am never disappointed.

I will not pawn or shop at any other pawn shop but Essex Pawn!! They greet me by name when I walk through the door and are all the sweetest guys! I had a very rough year money wise in 2014 and because of my great pawn record they held my things for me. I <3 all you guys at Essex Pawn!
