I mostly never have issues going in here, and I was a regular customer until about a week ago. The issue was that the young man that works in the music area tried to take pictures of me from a hiding spot behind the counter. Yes this sounds insane and I understand how it can. I was trying out guitars, because I was going to buy one for my son. I looked around because I knew they closed soon. That's when I saw a phone with the flash snapping pictures and heard the noise of the pictures.
I just wanted to no why.he then told me to "take my stealing ass on home" I'm thinking he thought I was stealing, second of all this is NOT the way to handle stealing or a robbery. SAD.

Terrible customer service on the buying end. I have never "pawned" anything so I cannot speak on that end. But, these guys are retail or better on everything I have looked at there from ATV's, Guns, Tools, Computers, etc etc. They are very proud of the junk they have and will not budge a penny. Act as if they are doing you a favor trying to screw you. RUDE AND ARROGANT STAFF!
