Poplar Jewelry & Pawn

Do not buy anything from this establishment if you would have the least bit of guilt about wearing stolen items. Husband use to be in the jewelry business and I have (had) several expensive sets of gold jewelry that I only wore for special occasions. Earlier this year I found out that my son has a addiction to painkillers. Since I rarely wore jewelry I did not realize I was missing anything. Over the past two years this company accepted numerous pieces of jewelry from a teenager. When I confronted them yesterday they told me I could press charges against my son and get it back for cost or buy it back at more than they gave him. They also told me they did me a favor because if he would have sold it to a drug dealer I would never get it back. Really nice reputable establishment!! Come on! Over 8K retail value of jewelry and you didn't suspect what he was using the money for! Not to mention based on the weight you took advantage of him! more

Throughly disgusted, I went in there with a peice of jewelry that had a tag on it saying sterling silver/ 10kt gold and these people looked and me and said ""its made of stainless steel and fake gold"". shortly there after I went to 3 other places telling me a whole diffrent story that it is in fact 10kt gold and silver and was given sevral offers. There must be retards working here, to not take all of 2 seconds to read a tag, how much easyer could it get for a pawn shop dealer to price and identify something with a tag already on it?! more
