This is the oldest pawn shop in Columbia SC. It is family owned since 1941. Jay Friedman and his family have ran and operated in Columbia and is the Most Trusted shop in the area. They truly pay too dollar for gold and silver and have been on TV with a hidden price buying of gold. They were head and shoulders above any jewelry store and pawn shops Not to mention they treat you like family every time. They have some of the best diamonds and jewelry on the planet. Let me not forget to mention Guitars. The shop has Guitars to revival any music store in the area and lots of top musicians come to the shop just to buy. But they also trade items and pay the most of any shop. I personally shop at the store for all my needs. Have never been disappointed in over 40 years. Go give them a try. You will thank me for the tip. Honest people or how else could they stay in business all this time. But go see...

Read moreWhile visiting Columbia recently, I stopped in and found a diamond of the size, quality and price point I have been hoping to find for the past 2-3 years. (After being married for 40+ yrs, I was past due for an upgrade!) Buying a diamond is a scary proposition when your knowledge base is as limited as mine. The staff is very knowledgeable and spent considerable time with me, answering my questions, handing me a loupe so I could see it under magnification, and describing it in detail. It was a completely transparent process and I felt comfortable that I was getting a fair deal. They sized it and had it mailed to me. I have been so happy with my purchase! . I will stop in every time I come to Columbia. They have an excellent selection, good prices and are...
