We have a huge pawn shop about 40 mins away, it's an army surplus, pawn shop, jeep junk yard, pain ball course, and even a bad ass we rock course all on one property.
Sounds like redneck heaven? Except everything in there is priced at ridiculous prices. Last time I was in there, a few years ago, they had a fucking 26" TUBE TV for like $120
You can get a pos 32" flat whatever for like $100 these days, why even waste your shelf space.
They have a huge out door section that just piled with junk, my work sent me there for pallet racking. After walking around in the 105* sun for 30 mins, we find what we want "oh I can't get to that, I'd have to move all this shit"
Ended up getting some stuff, but checked prices myself later (work just said go here to get it) and they were 90% of new, for old rusty shit that used to most obsolete style interlocks. Plus my wages to go fuck around with the guy.
They have also had a old ex military 5 ton wrecker listed for $30k for like 15 years, they want 15k for regular duece in a half. Even back when you could get one for damn near free.
Not sure what keeps this place in business, but it's not sales.
