Thuy Land Pawn Shop — Attraction in Biloxi

MUST READ BEFORE YOU BRING YOUR ITEMS!!!!! I wish I could give a zero review so people really know how my experience was..I brought my tablet to pawn not to sale and a couples weeks later I go up there to pay it off and get it back.. as soon as I get in my car I turn it on just to make sure everything is still on there plus i brought it up there fully charged and it was almost dead ...then went to look at my pictures and it said 3 only THREE!!! There was random pictures off my Facebook on there that was never on my tablet and some pictures of Russian news reporter .. there was supposed to be over 200 pictures of me my family and some very sentimental to me and my husband that we will never get back... i even tried to download apps to get my recent deleted pics back all that came back was more pictures of Russian new stuff,, I bought my tablet brand new and non of that should have been on there.. so the pawn shop had to personally go in and turn on my tablet and go through all my private things on there and somehow deleted every picture I had :( when you pawn any item they are not allowed to go through your personal belonging like that .. I called them and they told me there was nothing they can do but just look at the cameras and was supposed to call me back and i specifically told them if I don't get a phone call i would be calling back .. they never called i called back and they don't want to help me find out where my pictures went so I know for a FACT they go through your computers, phones or whatever you bring to pawn soooo please just don't go there...

Seems a lot of people think they are getting "screwed over" by these guys because they give you a small amount on pawn versus an items actual value. Maybe people should stop and think before they say this though. You pawn an item worth $100 and they give you $25 for example. They have to hold on to this item for at least a month, hope it doesn't end up being a stolen item where they lose what they paid, hope that the item still even has a value when they are allowed to sell it and they take these risks every single day. And if you come back in 29 days to redeem the item they make a whopping $6.25 in interest for loaning you $25 for a month. I don't know about you but I'm not loaning someone that money for a month to take all those risks and make 6 bucks. If it's such a bad deal then why do you visit a pawn shop? Walmart makes 2-3000 percent in profit off of that bottle of Tylenol when you buy one. What matters here is if you treat these people at Thuy's with respect, realize you are pawning something and act reasonable then they give you the same respect back. Sure, I've not been happy with a pawn amount here before but they helped me with a loan when I obviously needed it. And if you are a regular customer they will do what they can and sometimes take a bigger risk to help you in your bind. They pawn almost all cell phones which most places don't. If you need a pawn then they may not always have the best price but they always try to help when others don't. Long time repeat...

LET ME BE CLEAR ABOUT THIS SHOP!

After reading the reviews, I decided to check it out for myself. I buy gold and silver for a living, but I went in acting as a regular customer with no knowledge of gold. I brought in over 3 ounces of mixed gold jewelry.

The younger guy who helped me immediately looked at my gold with a stink eye and dismissed it as “CRAP GOLD” and “SHOT GOLD.” He then passed it off to an older man behind the counter, who was mumbling to a lady and—judging by the looks and tone—was making fun of me.

Here’s the big red flag: they used D.W.T. (pennyweight) instead of grams. Any time a pawn shop talks in pennyweight, RUN—they’re trying to confuse customers. Their offer? $3,500 for everything. I laughed inside, because I knew I’d never sell at that price.

They questioned why my jewelry had tags on it. I explained that I tag everything with karat, weight, and cost for tracking. They laughed and told me it was “better to throw it all in a pile.” Then came the kicker—they told me I was a “nobody,” that no refinery would take me as a customer, and that I needed to sell to them, the pawn shop owner. Little did they know I already work directly with a very respectable refinery in Florida that pays me fair value.

A video of this interaction will be posted on YouTube in about two weeks from the date of this review. Just search the hashtag #coresupply—you’ll be shocked by what you see.

This place… well, you can...
