Why be called the Trading Post Pawn when you don’t trade back things you sell even with receipts with no damage. What a waste of Letters. Might as well be called the Traders Helper ,but that name and wonderful business is already took. Needs to be called Even Odds Pawn Shop. What a waste of my time just reading the name of your business. I tell you what you railed me in like I was fish. The name of your business was the fishing pole and my Camera was the bait and you was aimed knowing just where to stand. Your better off being called a Thrift Store & be blessed with donations. Lucky you your the only pawn shop in town with the best quality I’ve seen in years.
Wouldn’t trust these folks. Sold me a used gas tube for an AR 15 for $15. I Inspect all my parts and components before installation, and thank God I did, because this one was warped causing the bolt carrier group to actually hit the gas tube when chambering a round. Very dangerous and negligent to sell faulty components especially for the Assembly of firearms.

Great store,friendly staff,opened another register due to volume of ppl in store
Awesome deals!
Good dollar store. Usually has a good stock. Friendly staff. Older building but prices are good.
Had almost everything. Cashier’s prompt and courteous
Good service
Horrible no public bathroom but I know for a fact they have a bathroom for employee.. it’s a public place they should be required to have a public restroom like all stores…. I will never shop at this store again plus it’s a mess stack outs in floor can barely move with a buggy an had two people at register instead of getting stuff off floor just standing there talking… this is a disgrace to retail
Good visit.
6 people in line ahead of me and only one register open. Really it’s the first of the month.

Nice place lots of variety I found a few items and only walked half the store.
Great antique store. The store is divided into booths rented out to individual pickers. I’d say the store was roughly 70% occupancy with a variety of antiques and vintage electronics. Other than furniture, there as surprisingly not s lot of repeated offerings between booths and I saw a lot of unique stuff. The management does a good job keeping the place clean and the staff are friendly and accommodating.
Nice place. We travel from Auburn monthly to visit here.
This is a big space with lots of booths. Vendors mostly had new household decor items that looked like they were from Hobby Lobby. There was a steady flow of traffic when I was there on a Saturday afternoon. I wouldn’t stop here again.
Fun selection of junque!
Very pricey
A tad overpriced. I do not care to go back.
The Antique mall “Pickle Patch” in Sylacauga has much more to choose from at reasonable prices.
Toooo high on the prices
I didn’t have a very good experience at Sweet Pickins this time as I usually do. For one thing I think she’s the owner did not even speak. Just took my money which I thought was 25% off I questioned her about it and she says oh that was yesterday in a mean tone. She may need to act like she enjoys being there.

Last minute rush to get strings as I slid up they were locking the door at closing. Very kind ladies actually let me in knowing I wasn’t spending much money for their time but smiled and were soo kind. I will be back. earlier next time.
Love everything that ive bought from the guitar shop. Ask the people that work there are always so nice and friendly to everyone that comes in the shop. Definitely one of my favorite places to go and shop for anything related to guitars. So I would highly recommend this shop to anyone looking to buy or even slightly interested in guitars.
Absolutely a hidden GEM.
Please respect the instruments
They will let you play
Helpful staff, decent prices, quality gear, what else do you want?
Great place for instruments
I called and they didnt answear
Wonderful customer service
Nice; they’ll order in for u
Took in my guitar to get set up and to get the fret buzz handled. They told me it would take them three days. I took it to them on a Monday and I called them Thursday. They hadn’t even gotten started on it. (They said it was school season but if you tell me three days then stick by what you say) I told them I needed it by Friday morning and they told me they’d have it ready. I go that Friday morning and it was “set up” apparently. They didn’t even do my intonation and I’m pretty sure they didn’t use the string gauge I requested. To make things worse the fret buzz was horrendous. Like my guitar was unplayable, even more than before. Horrible service to say the least. I absolutely do not recommend getting your guitars set up here. Downright disgusting.
High pressure sales tactics on major purchases. Uncomfortable atmosphere throughout the store, once you state that you might not be purchasing item that day you might as well be dead to them. Stuck up to say the least. Support other businesses if at all possible.
Very overpriced! I understand small business vs online shopping and major companies, but come on!

Very friendly customer service, and they worked extremely quickly to get my order shipped. Definitely recommend using them!
Make sure you see Erskine. He will take great care of you.
This is the only location in alabama that sells Fretlight guitars. They range from beginner to pro.and the whole neck lights up with led’s to teach you how to play.
Good service. Knowledgeable staff. Wish there was one closer to us!
I needed to buy instruments for my Middle School kids. They were very upfront with their prices and seemed to have the best deals.
This place is awesome, need customer service? DONE! Need a repair? DONE! Need to place an order? DONE! The only thing I did not like was the lack of extended range instruments. You will not be finding fanned fret, 28 fret, tap guitar, etc. You want those go to WARR guitars or order them off of a musicians website.
No stars really. Not a very good merchant. Let someone use my credit card number without the card! Be careful!
I came in here the other day and they were incredibly overbearing and checked in on me every 30 seconds. From the second I walked in they were all up in my face and insisted on providing an address and phone number whenever I paid which I fully expect to be sold somewhere. I don’t know if they’re struggling to keep the lights on or something but the amount of customer service was way too much and came across as pushy and rude. Literally just let me shop.
Dishonest, and disrespectful. While I’m aware they have an “all sales final” on used gear policy, it is their responsibility to properly inspect the gear they take in and not sell something that is damaged internally (in my case, a guitar amp). Idiot salesman also had a smug grin on his face the whole time my brother and I were having to deal with it (all 5-6 hours) and was making snooty comments back and forth. In a nut shell they sold me a dead amp and then laughed in my face about it. If this is how your business treats customers, don’t expect to be a business for long. I attempted a purchase with Bailey Brothers about 8 years ago. Was not a pleasant experience. This one wasn’t either. Rest assured, that’s it. I will not be back.
Update: Hey the owner called me just to prove they really do not care about customers. Tried to minimize what happened, and basically acted exactly like Keith did. Also a robotic “I apologize but we’re not going to do anything to fix it” does not count as rectifying anything. Gee wonder why the Southside store closed! Oh yeah and if you have a bad experience with them and they don’t own up to it they’ll do like any typical teenager does and tries to badmouth you on Facebook, then stalk your page. Very mature. Screenshots are great though aren’t they?
PS: Oh and buddy, if I were mad and desperate to pay my rent, then why in the heck did I buy a $700 amp from you? Nice try.
