On Various forums, I always hear of people getting crazy Deals @ Pawn shops...one dudes friend got a SP-1200 for 100$...one dude got a 2000XL for 500$....


So Im wondering, how do i find these pawn shops? I searched "Pawn shop" and my area code on google, but all its bringing up is Jewlery Stores

I know Gyms might be called Fitness Centers, so do Pawn Shops with music gear have a more "formal" name or something...?

you know, it's funny cuz the same thing happened to me. I looked up Google and all I found was some jewelry stores. I'm in Boston btw and I can't find even 1 small pawn shop around here. However, I'm currently in Ohio visiting my girlfriend. On the way back from the airport, I saw a bunch of them on the streets, might have to hit them up today to see if I can find any deal :lol:

I live in Boston as well and I haven't seen any pawn shops. When I go back home to PA to visit it seems like there's one every other block.

I live in a small city and we have like 50 pawn shops. If you wanna find em go to the hood. They feast on people that cant pay the bills. You can find em on the block that has like 30 porno rental spots.
