Reviews of Niagara Falls Pawnbroker (Optics Shop)

Kieran Murphy

Will take most things no questions asked but does'nt always work with you on price. Not a bad pawn shop but not the greatest either.

Aaron St Michel

Old bet up stuff in the shop way over price on most things was trying to buy some silver from this shop and they where trying to mark up the pure silver bars they have buy 500% above spot price im sorry if silver is only worth $0.51 a gram dont try and sell it to me for $4.00 a gram CRAZY.

I would give ONE star but my screen doesn't work on the far left side. They answer in a whisper and act like you are the KGB when asking a question

Jillian Moore

Not to bad! No the best. They help when they can but they have a lot of stuff so they dont pay much for new stuff . Be smart they will take advantage of you if they can!

Staff are friendly and knowledgeable and they do work with you on prices. I've never had an issue and I buy things all the time from there.

Stephanie Levenne

Cheap crap and bosses never work with you on prices

The owner was just arrested (May 24, 2019) by Niagara Police for selling stolen items. Total of $70,000 of stolen tools was seized by police. Article is publicly available online.

Popped in unexpectedly to take a look. Staff were approachable. If they didn't know the answer then they found it out from a colleague. At first It was confusing to know what was for sale or what was on hold so just ask. Some things were missing their prices too if noted it was for sale. A few things quite over priced as I knew what they go for online and other places but bargain and talk your way through. I'll return for sure.

He has a bunch of acoustic guitars in another part of the store. Sign on the door says closed for reno. Ask if I can see the guitars. He says its closed but he will have it ready in ten minutes. Im standing there waiting for him to open it. He just stares at the computer screen not moving. I walk out the store. Go back a few weeks later still closed for renovations. Soooo have fun with your guitars!

I think I was overcharged, although I loved what I bought, I was told two different prices in 10 minutes. Best to do your homework before shopping and compare prices

Sean Chan

Wow, best pawn shop in the falls by far. Do your homework folks compare prices with other shops. I was in there and thought that they where low balling customers, then they would show the customers how much they sell items for and man was it cheap. And they have sooooo much stuff.

This place is run by a bunch of morons. The woman behind the counter couldn't find her arse with both hands and a map. I brought in an engagement ring hoping to sell it quickly. She looked at it and told me they wouldn't take silver and a fake diamond. She didn't even test it. ???? When I showed her the markings inside the ring, she rolled her eyes, tested it and saw she was wrong. I took the ring, told her to forget it and sold it privately. Now I see they've been raided by the police and arrested for dealing in stolen property. Karma is sweet.

Verry ride on phone! Did not want to look to see if he had any men's bracelets while I waited on hold, as I explained that I would have to drive to there from st Catharines he stated that he had " no sympathy" !! Very rude!

Aaron Crews

Called today to inquire about an item I am looking for. I called ahead of time to see if it was in stock before I drove down. The lady over the phone abruptly said “you have already called me 100 times and I have answered your question!” I have never called this store, or knew it existed prior to googling for local pawn shops in the area. Clearly doesn’t know how to appropriately work with potential customers. The low google review is definitely warranted.

Tabitha Wood

Never have an issue. This is a family owned business and the parents dont speak good english but they are nice to repeat customers.but would love for them to hurry up and open back up so i can get my stuff.. is there any time frame on a reopen date??

Gage Geisel

They'll tell you one price and then switch it to less the people running this store are rude and incompetent 0 out of 5 everytime!!!!

We buy from here regularly, have purchased all of our families cell phones here over the years, have bought tools, bikes, PS games etc. Each and every time they've been excellent with their service, and if I've ever had a problem they solve it as quickly and efficiently as possible. Once I bought a cell phone that re-locked itself and they took care of it in a completely reasonable way. They seem to test what they sell, and only sell good stuff. I've tried to pawn some older things that they have said, 'nope - it's not good enough'. So I highly recommend them and really value them as a place to get great quality phones and electronics. In fact I'm calling them for a monitor right now....

Billy Neff

This place is terrible. do not bring business there. They will call your authentic items fake to try and down play the price. I question her authenticity and legitimacy. She needs a reality check and she stinks the place out. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. There are plenty of other places with friendly staff and reasonable prices.
