pawn shops are money lenders. yes, they sell stuff that the ownwer doesn't come back to claim or quit making their payments.

I like browsing pawn shops. Bought a bunch of LPs from one in West Monroe

Pawn shops aren’t as much a store as they are a lending company. The expectation is that you are coming back for your stuff that you put up for collateral.

I've found some bang up deals at pawn shops. Bought a custom desktop from one back in 05 or 06 that I played WoW on for years. If I remember correctly, I priced all the components in it vs building one exactly like it and I saved about $600.

Walk out of HD with tool. Enter pawn shop. Instant 100% profit.

It seems to me it is extremely rare that anything is actually pawned at a pawn shop.
Something like a cheap wedding ring or something is the only shite anyone is actually trying to pretend they will pay back for.

I’m sorry but this is a stupid question.

Online sales probably put an interstate commerce charge on stolen items.

Some of it is to legitimize (launder) cash. Most all of them fence gold and silver coins (golden eagle, Indian head.) It's a weird business model. Back in the day, you could go and buy all of the loose Craftsman hand tools and sockets. Sears would swap them for new if they were damaged because of the lifetime guarantee.

Guns and guitars.

What keeps a pawn shop in business?
Cheap pistols and used electronics.

Glad they are still in business, can find great deals on tools if you know what to look for.

They pay cash

I often wonder that. The ones I went to were surprisingly expensive for the things they were selling.
