Pawn Shop

Postby agmoose » Thu Dec 23, 2010 5:00 pm

So I decided to see what the local pawn shop had acquired as folks seek out Christmas cash. I noticed there were 5 ASE's in the jewelry case, all listed at $39. However, one was different. I picked up a nice 2006 W Proof ASE today for $35! I offered $35 to see if the lady would accept the offer. She paused and then shook her head OK.

I think that one worked out pretty well. Still in all of the original mint packaging!

Picked up 16 silver Washington quarters for 4.82 each after tax at the local pawn shop yesterday. It always pays to check. They were marked 4.99 each but they gave me a discount without even asking since I bought the lot. Silver Santa came early :)
