Me and my girlfriend took him a necklace and ring with opals and dimonds in them. The old LADIE that works for him took my girlfriends jewelry to the back and said John would be right with us. We stood around for 20 minutes waiting then she finally comes back and said John would only give us 40 for both of them the necklace and the ring together weighs 3.5 gram's. Gold is $39 per gram,scrap at that. We had just paid to get it out of pawn 15 minutes before we got there because he told me he would give her a better value than a melt down. We did get upset and leave. But that's not it we took it back the other pawn shop we took it out of and the would not except it because the pendent with the opal was fake and had been swamped out ,so we basically got screwed from the first phonecall. We brought this up to a friend off ours, and she told us if she knew we was trying to sale our jewelry, that little John's would be the last place to go and she would have to be seriously desperate. Because he switched her jewelry out with fake stuff, and she also mentioned he was a cocaine addict. SO BE WEAR!!! We got screwed and have paperwork to prove it but can't do anything about it cause buy the time we found out he got away with it. Have...

He ended up offering me 350 for it and I declined his offer because the necklace was worth 2500. I went down the street to another pawn store to get another offer I gave my necklace to the jeweler who tested the diamond immediately in front of me and the diamond was now testing to be not genuine. I couldn't believe it . Little John's stole my diamond. I pray God will bring justice to this business and to all their victims. I know I wasn't the first n dam sure wasn't the last. I hope God exposed you little John and all ur corrupt workers. In...
