We’ve heard the question before, trust us. The negative stigma associated with pawn shops is not because the industry is untrustworthy, it’s because people don’t actually know what exactly it is that we do.

Why would they? There aren’t many articles, press releases, or interviews about what pawn shops do and how they do it. There’s a serious lack of knowledge when it comes to the pawn industry, and we want to inform you so that there is no reason to be wary about visiting a pawn shop in the future!

Every item that is available for purchase is carefully inspected by our staff to make sure it is functioning at its highest capacity. We will not sell you something that does not work properly, or has the potential to break in the near future. The best part is, these items are deeply discounted, without a loss in quality!

·         We have electronics covered from Apple MacBooks, to HP and Dell PCs, iPads, Apple Watches, Xbox Ones, Sonos Speakers, flat screen TVs and everything in between.

·         Need to finish that summer project? We have a great selection of used power tools from great brands like Stihl and Hasqvarna Chainsaws, Generac and Craftsman pressure washers, power drills, table saws, lawnmowers and much more!

·         Are you into music? We’ve got Fender Stratocaster guitars, drum sets, and amps of all shapes and sizes!

·         On the hunt for a new toy? Harley Davidson motorcyles, paintball guns, Nike Jordan shoes, air hockey tables, and bicycles just to name a few.

Yankee Peddler & Pawn has it all, and for half the price from a big box store. Our knowledgeable staff only purchases gently used products that are fully functional. Trust that we won’t sell you a faulty electronic or a bike with a rusty chain. That’s why we’ve been in business for over 20 years, and have locations in New London, Groton and East Hartford.

We will provide you with reliable products, affordable loans with little or no credit, and purchase your unneeded possessions, if they’re in good shape!
