Action Exchange Pawn Shop And Jewelry loans - Edmonton

bought over the internet , everything went super smooth , great fellow to deal with ! !

Owner won't even acknowledge your presence, just concentrates on his laptop screen. Filthy and disorganized store.

Always good service, friendly and considerate. My forever home for pawns anytime. Thanks.

I would recommend alot of people to stop by , Hes a friendly, easy too communicate with an reasonable business guy, if short on cash hes the guy pawns n loans

I've been debating writing this review for awhile. But my last trip to action pawn was so bad, i no longer have any doubts writing this. I'm listing the main problems i've come across being there only 5 times. PROBLEM #1: You'll never know what they're selling They tease you with boxes/containers full of collectible video game boxes/manuals. Think you can look through and find something cool? no. Just try asking. They'll put you on the spot and ask you "what are looking for" and unless you come in wanting an EXACT game, you'll just be shut down. PROBLEM #2: They really don't care 3 instances I've asked for specific games they said they didn't have. Which THEY ACTUALLY DID HAVE. And this has happened to me 3 times. Only from coincidentally looking at random game piles i spotted them. I mean they didn't even try looking, they clearly aren't looking for sales. No apology, no prices. just "oh". PROBLEM #3: Half of their inventory isn't even for sale. As ridiculous as this sounds, a lot of their inventory isn't for sale. Especially if the owner isn't there because the other employee who works their isn't sure what is or isn't for sale. It's just disappointing, the owner is a collector himself and is just too lazy to move his stuff out of the way. Very annoying/discouraging. PROBLEM #4: Overall rude Staff will interrupt you with personal phone calls/text messaging. Owner is VERY rude, couldn't stop swearing even when I was with a 12 year old boy. Everything is very dirty too. Very poorly run. They're overall hyper critical/ very paranoid, 118th ave has dulled their interpersonal skills. OVERALL: If you're looking for specific titles and don't care about paying higher than ebay/ low quality stuff, I guess this may be a viable option. But honestly, If you're already paying top dollar you might swell go through eBay. At least that way you'll have a receipt, as these guys don't like debit/credit, they'll give discounts for cash. But besides all their boxes/manuals look pretty beat up anyways.

Have known the owner for years and no other pawnshop has treated me and my things as well as he has. Very reasonable, never any damages and a pleasure to shoot the breeze with 5 stars

Thank you for a great buying experience ! Great Buy of High quality! made the purchase easy and even shipped to me in Ontario, at very reasonable cost. they took extra steps to make this go smoothly, communicating all the steps of the purchase, and received before I expected I highly recommend Action Exchange.
