<p>[QUOTE="rogerxd45, post: 1679062, member: 46931"]having never paid asking price at apawn shop for anything i can say with no doubt that pawn shops do over price so when someone comes in and says ill give you $25 for a $30 item they can accept it (they will usually counter first) and the customer feels like they got a good deal since they were able to take a few bucks off the price and the dealer gets the price for it he is willing to accept. my father used to own a pawn shop and still knows lots of people in the business and this is how i was taught to buy stuff at them. i do the same thing when i sell items in local classifieds like craigslist and others. if i want $400 for something i will list it for 425-450, i will counter their offer to get the most $ out of them but in the end i will accept any price at or over my $400 want price. both people walk away happy feeling they got a good deal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
