Sell or Pawn Your Watch
When you pawn an item, you are getting a short-term loan using your watch as collateral to borrow cash. You receive a loan term and are required to pay back the loan to receive your pawned watch back.
When you sell your watch at Albert’s Pawn Shop, you bring in your item of value, and we sell it.
