   Read moreRight from the start Julian was super hostile. He asked what I was looking for as far as a price for the ring I was trying to sell. When I stated that I didnât know, he aggressively told me that, âthatâs not how it worksâ. He also told me that the price I get for the ring is the same irregardless of pawning or selling. To which I said that if it didnât matter then he could just give me a price that the shop was comfortable paying for it. He again said, frustrated, âthatâs not how it worksâ now, mind you, Iâve already received 3 different quotes from 3 different pawn shops. All gave me a price of at least over $500.. he spent more time arguing with me than he did valuing the ring, after a few seconds he said, the ring was basically worth $50 and would offer, $200.. I do not recommend this place at all and if the owner responds, Iâd like a word with him in regards to the policies and practices of this place, before I submit a report to the Better Business Bureau.

When I called back to get Julianâs first name as I had missed it when he failed to introduce himself, Lex who answered the phone wouldnât give me a first name until I explained why I needed it. Do they also not give a first name? I mean seriously...

They would not replace the item with another controller even though I took it at least 4 times to the shop. They said as long as they can keep fixing it during the time of the warranty, they don't need to exchange it for another controller. Temporary fixes are not fixes, it's just more proof that you CAN'T fix something. If you buy from here, I advise you not to get a warranty, buy anything and everything cheaper than what they are asking, and know how to fix problems on your own. I will not be buying anything else from this place again. They don't care about customers even if they buy warranties, they just care...
