How the Pawn Process Works
Put simply – customers pledge property as collateral, and in return, pawnbrokers lend them money. When customers pay back the loan, their merchandise is returned to them. Pawn loans are made on everything from jewelry to electronics. If the customer elects not to redeem their collateral, there is no credit consequence to the borrower and the items are sold at a discount to retail consumers.
The average pawn loan is $75 :: (with the vast majority of loans being in the range of $20-150)
The contract period is 60 days total :: (it’s actually a 30 day contract, with a 30 day grace period)
Total monthly service charges are 25% :: (includes 2%/mo. interest, +storage fee’s & overhead)
