Buckeye Pawn Shop

.
I purchased a ring a few years ago from Buckeye Pawn on Harrisburg Pike and the same day I took my ring to Buckeye pawn shop on South High Street so their «jewelry expert» could appraise it. The manager looked at it for 3 seconds with his little eye piece and handed it back to me and said its a piece of crap from Zales barely worth $ 300 (I thought he thought I wanted to pawn it). I threw a fit because I had purchased that «peice of crap zales ring» at the other Buckeye Pawn location earlier that day for $ 1,200. Now try to imagine my frustration.
I went to a different person at the jewelry counter and explained I just paid $ 1,200 for this ring at a different buckeye pawn shop and explained I felt like I was being ripped off, thinking he devalued my rings’ worth because he thought I wanted to pawn it. So then he apologizes and asks to look at the ring and says no this ring is worth anywhere from $ 6,000 — $ 7,000 and he explained that the other gentlemen was mistaken.
So for a few years now i thought i had a vintage ring worth $ 7,000. So a few weeks ago I actually had my ring appraised at an actual jeweler and I found out that my ring is really barely worth $ 300. The manager at buckeye pawn I thought was an idiot and a thief was the opposite. He wasn’t lying it was the 2^nd buckeye pawn jeweler who told me what I wanted to hear after finding out I purchased this ring at a different buckeye pawn earlier that day … So the first guy at the south high buckeye pawn shop was not lying it really was a «piece of crap zales ring» after all. It is only now that i realize the second man who found out i originally purchased this ring at a different buckeye pawn shop upped the appraisal to $ 7,000.
I told this to a non-​biased jeweler they actually laughed at me when they found out I paid $ 1,200 and was appraised at $ 7,000. Then they apologized for their spontaneous laughter, they suggested I do more research next time and to NEVER trust a pawn shop. #RIPOFF Shame on you buckeye pawn.
Don’t pawn your items there, don’t buy from there, and don’t get your jewelry appraised there. There was absolutley nothing done to rectify the situation. The S. High street store are cheapskates & uneducated liars! (This was a while ago)
WORST PAWN SHOP EVER! !!

I wasn’t excited about bringing my three year old son with me to the pawn shop but it turned out to be a great experience. The employees of Buckeye pawn were extremely nice to us and they were very knowledgable about their merchandise. The store was clean, well organized and had a great selection. I will definitely be back to buy from this location.
