A pawnshop offers a quick way to sell items for cash. Although shops generally sell objects that are in demand locally, there are certain items that most shops won’t refuse. If you're looking to sell some of your belongings, consider these popular pawnshop goods.

What Items Do Pawnshops Want?

1. Smartphones

The used smartphone market is a hot one, especially since new phones can cost over $700. If you have a still-working, reasonably recent smartphone, sell it instead of getting rid of it. Galaxy, iPhones, and LG phones are among the most popular items, but make sure you charge the battery, bring the charger, and know the storage and model number.

2. Video Games

There is a never-ending demand for video games, consoles, and the TVs you play them on. Xbox, Playstation, and Nintendo games and consoles are the most popular. The fast-changing environment of gaming means old games aren't worth too much, but you can sell popular games for around $20 or so apiece if they work.

3. Firearms

pawnshopGuns are a universally popular pawn item, and most shops will quickly trade for both working and antique firearms. For many shops, guns are one of their primary sources of income and trade for average shoppers and collectors alike.

4. Jewelry

Jewelry is an age-old favorite of most pawnshops, as the pieces are popular and often contain diamonds, gems, and precious metals. Collectors and those who want to shop on a budget use pawnshops as a routine choice for buying jewelry for themselves or loved ones. Watches of all styles and brands are particularly valuable, regardless of age.

5. Power Tools

Drills, saws, screwdrivers, nail guns, and air compressors are staples in most toolboxes, but they can be expensive to buy new. Pawnshops are a great option for buying and selling used tools, especially brands such as Ryobe, Craftsman, and Bosch. However, they need to work and have all of the accessories and parts to sell.
