Been coming to this company for over 5 years now. Before they had multiple locations. The owner has always treated with great respect and I have never been "low balled" for ANY of my items I have ever pawned, despite other reviews (probably slamming the company because they didnt raise their interest rates like the other shops when Washington raised the allowed interest on loans). I went to a different pawn recently (for the first time because they were the only ones who had what I was looking for) and they are SCAM professionals. Purchased what I needed, brought it home and the item did not work at all (which is the only guarantee they give, is everything they sell works). I brought it back and they hooked it up and said "this isnt right". They have the right to repair whatever you buy before determining (at owners discretion) refund or in store credit. So now my stuff is out for "repair". If it comes back I already know I wont get my money back, ill be given in store credit. Which they dont have another product in store remotely near what I was looking for in the first place. What Im getting at is if it were Tropics. I know from my history their, I would get my money back because they sold me (which would never happen) a non working product. These guys care about you getting your stuff back if its a loan or giving you the best possible deal if its a sale. They didnt raise their interest for a reason, they are not money hungry and they want to be a solid staple in our community. Top notch company.

This company is very unprofessional. The employees made me wait for a very long period over the fact they lost a ring I had set on the counter. They neverbsmiled or even seemed the least bit concerned. They showed absolutely no interest in resolving the situation and were very unfriendly. Ive been in sales and the customer service was about some of the worst I have ever encountered. Apparently, the management operates the sane way because no one ever returned the message I left directy with their employee. Nothing was mentioned anout it when I picked up my loan. Only when I went to get another one, wasting more of my time. It being Sunday I was unable ti get a loan to buy food for my kid. Being disabled single parent is a lot harder when dealing with people like this who have zero interest in being good people or even understanding. It would have been nice to talk to someone before Im the one who got treated like some k8nd of criminal. Very unprofessional and petty behavior.

The employees here are always really nice and always willing to help me out with loans or whatever I need. Cant remember the manager name but hes always going outta his way to help me out, when I take stuff in to get a loan he only takes what he needs to get to the amount Im asking for and lets me keep the other stuff instead of taking everything. Other pawn shops Ive been to would never do that, they take everything even if its not needed for the amount you want. They will work with you and help you out with your needs and be happy to do so and not make you feel bad about needing a loan.

I tried to pawn a 500 S&W for $1000,which cost no less than $1300 if one were to buy it;and, they tried to convince me their manager found them for $1050 online, and they couldnt loan me anywhere close to that. They said they were seeing them for that price on gun broker. I explained to them $1050 was the starting bid price,and they wouldnt actually sell for that. So, suffice to say, this Pawn shop does shady business and is just another pawn shop, nothing special or different about it.

The staff here is very friendly and very helpful! Best place to loan or sell that I have ever been to! The have great prices on every thing! And they have the cleanest store I have ever seen. It truly makes me feel comfortable to be in here when getting a loan. I love the variety they have at both of their locations!

Dont go here. These people know you are desperate and are all too eager to take advantage of that. They offered me $50 for a sapphire and diamond engagement ring. I was able to get $350 for it elsewhere. Theyre crooked; go somewhere else.

Very friendly staff. Great price on things. Bought a Samsung tablet a couple of months ago and have had no problems with it at all. And they give good deals on things too. I plan on shopping here more from now on.

Wanna buy used stuff at brand new retail price ? Well come here. Pretty ridiculous. Do your homework and look on Craigslist or eBay and dont be taken advantage of buying used stuff at a premium price.

Purchased a firearm here for a very reasonable price. The owner and other gentleman helping me were very helpful and the transaction took no more than 10 minutes. Would definitely do business with them again!

Tyler Monica

Pawned things here four times every time got money not as much as I expect but what I need at the time but how else are they going to make money lol I like the place recommended it a couple times cool place

Went to pawn latest iPad. Was told they dont take Apple products. Whats the point of having the list of things you dont take on your website if its not up to date? They need to keep up with their business.

The employees were very helpful and so friendly even though they were busy. Their prices are very reasonable, and they always have awesome sales. I will definitely be recommending this place to friends!

Sinister Doings

They will rip you off. And the owner is gonna respond how they try to be competitive and all that but its all bs. If you dont mind being ripped off, I totally recommend this place.

I took my gold ring to Americas Pawn on Mill Plain and they offered me $75. Took the same one to Tropics and got $100. Best prices in town!
