How To Pawn An Item to Get Cash

Pawn Loans Defined: Before there were banks there was pawning, one of the oldest forms of banking. Money is loaned to you because you loan an item of value to the lender as collateral. When you repay the loan, the lender returns your item.

Two Ways To Get Cash

Method 1: Pawn Your Item

  1. Bring any item of value to one of our pawn shops. Jewelry, electronics, tools, car titles, stocks, etc.
  2. We'll give you cash and keep your item in safe storage. No credit check is needed, just bring a valid ID.
  3. In a few weeks when you get back on your feet, return to pay back your loan plus a small interest charge.
  4. Take your item home.
In the event you never return to repay the loan, no problem. We just keep the item and resell it to recoup our loan. It's that simple.

A loan from a pawn shop is a great way to get quick cash using only collateral.

We offer discount loans -- even car title loans as low as 10% percent!

Method 2: Sell Your Item

Don't want a loan? Just want to sell your item? No problem! We buy things outright as well. Bring it down to Ideal Jewelry and Pawn Shop and get some cash!

What must I do to pawn something?

Bring ID. Any current, government-issued, photo ID. That's it. A driver's license, a passport, even another country's identification, such as a Mexican ID or Canadian license. Anything issued by a government with your name and picture is acceptable. Call us if you're unsure about your identification.
