We were obviously in a cash bind, so decided to try and pawn a diamond ring, and sell some other jewelry we didn't wear anymore and were unlikely to in the future. We posted a few items on PawnGuru, and CHICAGO PAWNERS & JEWELERS, were the first and only to respond. This was good because based upon our separate research they had the highest online ratings. The experience could not have been more pleasant. We set a time we planned to come in and were told to ask for Danny - one of the sons who own the shop. We told him what we had in mind, showed him what we had, including a very old appraisal and description of the diamond ring. The first thing he did was come out in the showroom and clean it (steam bath) and then offered to clean some other rings we had on, a nice touch. From there he went back behind the glass security window (it is a pawn shop after all :)) and after a bit came back with the value he was able to give us on both the ring and the other items. He also explained how he arrived at the ring value (notched down the color and clarity figures per the formal appraisals, saying appraisers have a tendency to inflate these figures (which he then applied to his valuation model). Not sure if true, but at least it was an explanation, and as we got a pawn/loan value we were looking for, that wasn’t a problem. Note for first timers, all transactions are in cash, both when surrendering and when retrieving, which makes sense. Overall a very professional and pleasant experience, under the circumstances.

Chicago Pawners&Jewelers contacted me very soon after I put up my Macbook Pro and worked with me for a fair price. Super efficient, friendly, and fair. Also gave me a great suggestion on where to get a burrito nearby

This shop is excellent! It was my first experience with pawning and I’m glad it was with them. They were very friendly from the second I walked in and it was a very quick and professional transaction. Danny was extremely helpful and it was a pleasure doing business with him. I will gladly come back in the future! :-)

The place and the staff were amazing. They were very helpful and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this location if one is in need of emergency cash as the rates are lower than other locations.

AMAZING SHOP AND AMAZING PEOPLE TO WORK WITH!!! I honestly believe they have your best interest at heart! Of course they are a business but I have never been to a pawn shop that is so kind, fair, and there to help in the best way they can. I worked specifically with Daniel and what a gem this man is! He took the time to talk to me as a human being and understand why I was there and what I was hoping for out of the deal and my long term goal with their shop. I will definitely do business here again and I am recommending this shop to everyone! Thank you!!!
