I purchased a drone. Battery does not charge. Guy had the nerve to say it was new. Really? I was not trying to return it. Wanted to know what they could do being I need to purchase a new battery. They basically said "I can't do nothin for you man". I am also been a customer from a long time. Companies like this destroy the resale business. I would not recommend this business.

The employees who are currently working at this location have been consistently providing quality matter-of-fact service, almost to a fault. Even when this locations customer base show dissatisfaction, they stay professional during the interaction. If there any issues, they are usually resolved promptly. After the riots from last year, and other factors, some items were no longer being accepted for sale/pawn at this location, which is a shame. It was a business decision. Otherwise, yes, would recommend.

"The staff is very rude the manager is even worse": I totally concur! Since newest owner obtained the so-called business the service declined severely; use to be a good company. I was ejected yesterday with a racial infective by said manager. After calmly waiting for 5 minutes for the rude lady to find my long-term account I got annoyed and mentioned my displeasure and was rudely confronted. Would give 0.5 star rating (at least they required masks so they get a 0.5 rating) if I could. Contacting the BBB for age and race discrimination. KL
