The Gold Standard in
Pawn & Retail Since 1994

Yankee Peddler & Pawn opened in 1994 at 141 State Street in New London.

More than 30 years later, we're still locally owned and Connecticut-run, now with three stores in New London, Groton and East Hartford.

We buy, sell and loan on the things people actually own: jewelry, gold, tools, electronics, musical instruments and video games. Sell to us and you leave with cash the same day. Pawn instead and you get your item back when you repay. Shop our showroom and pay a fraction of retail, with a 30-day money-back guarantee on every purchase.

Three decades in business comes down to being straight with people. Our gold is tested for karat purity, our diamonds are graded by a GIA-certified grader, and every pawn transaction stays confidential.

We're members of the Connecticut Association of Pawnbrokers and the National Pawnbrokers Association, and we show up for our community.

Stop by any of our three stores and see what's new today.
