Recession Is Coming I Can Tell By What People Are Selling

It's hard to watch but more and more people are selling stuff that they collected for years, what that means is that inflation is kicking in and people are struggling. Visit my shop Trading Post in Crystal Lake IL.

I've sold stuff at a lot of pawn shops through the years. It came in handy in a pinch. One time I was getting irritated at pawnshops and insurance companies at the same time. I was disabled on worker's compensation and the insurance company liked to forget to send me a check on time. Sometimes 2 weeks would pass and I would have to pawn things to get up the money to pay bills. Finally, and usually, after I complained forcefully, they would send the check. So then I would go to the pawn shop and get my items back. Of course, there is an interest charge. That is what was pissing me off. Because of the insurance company's failure, I was losing money, which was the interest on these small loans. Sure, it wasn't the pawn shop's fault. But after that cycle played out several times, you resent it anyway. I hope things get better for folks real soon.

You should have threatened to take them to civil court if they didn't reimburse you for the interest charges. Insurance companies normally lose in civil suits when it's obvious they are at fault.

I was in the shop the same day as this video. It's funny that the guy got bit or clawed by honey. I gave her a little pet on the head when she was on the counter and when I went to go for a second time she slapped at me. Lucky for me she missed but I guess she was in a angy mood that day.

[@notadumbblond3]

I know pawn shops are in business to make money, but I've never seen one that is honest, yet. So I'm skeptical of the "I can't give that much I'm sorry" with the concerned apologetic look. I sold something that I paid $250 in total for, used once, a write on electronic tablet that had a keyboard, that I got $10 for, with those same words and that same concerned apologetic look. I needed the money, no matter how little, so I sold it. When I went back in 2 weeks later to buy it back, after my first paycheck came in from my new job, it was listed for $100. The same guy who bought it from me wouldn't budge from that $100. The same thing happened with an heirloom ring I had pawned. Different shop, would only give me $20 for a $1000 ring, same sad "sorry it's all we can do". I had to ashamedly ask my mom for money to get it back out of hock. She went down there the day before the payment was due with my ticket and they already had it displayed with an asking price of $750. I tried another supposedly reputable shop later one to sell some items for a move. This was all before the internet and social media really took off. I had about 10 different things all gently used, all worth over $100 each, that I thought ok $10 each should be about right. Nope. Got $25 for all of it. And again when I checked later, 2 of them were still there and both with prices of around $100 each. I would have gotten better money had I been able to do a yard sale. Pawn shops are a total rip off for the seller.

[@Ep1cTV]

It sounds like you’ve definitely had some bad experiences with some pawn shops. But I wanted to say that it’s not really the pawn shops lying or being dishonest when they say that because a pawn shop is built off of your resold items. If you had something worth 25$ and I only have 10$, I could be fair and offer 10$, but I’ll have zero cash to spend on anything else until I sell your item and will now be risking having no money for a random amount of time. So I could either offer 10$ and risk everything, or offer you 5$ and look like a cheap jerk. Obviously they have more than 10$ to give you, but they have to be able to give cash to hundreds of people over the course of a year selling stuff to recoup. And selling the item may be harder because their customer base is basically the same less fortunate people. Why would I buy your resold 100$ tablet from a pawn shop if I could afford a brand new 250$ one? I wouldn’t, and neither would most people, so the only people buying a pawn shop used tablet are people who had to. So yeah, those pawn shops were probably greedy when they offered you those low numbers for your items, but people only have the option to give random stuff to a pawn shop *because* they profit from buying it cheaply. A fair pawn shop is going to be super picky if they gotta give 40-50% on every item they buy and would only buy the guaranteed best quality stuff to resell.
