Great prices on all items. The staff is aight too.
Its a Great Place. The Guys who work they are Fair with Priceing.
Great Place to shop. Reasonable on prices. Staff is very helpful and friendly.
This review is based off of the retro video game section at Dawson Pawn & Outdoors / Dawson Pawn & Check Casher in Dawson, GA.
1) Prices
Prices are hovering around eBay values. Some are a bit less and some are a bit more.
2) Haggling
Something a bit unusual happened during my visit. The guy behind the counter offered me a game I was interest in for $5 off. It was a game that I still felt was overpriced so I passed. My friend and I picked out a total of 8 games and at checkout we asked if he would cut us a bit of a deal. He said no. It was surprising that we would be offered a deal then moments were told they wouldn’t haggle or deal.
3) Testing
The games do not seem cleaned and tested. They did appear relatively clean externally but the games purchased here did not initially work. I had to open them up and clean the pins myself to get them to function. If carts are not being opened and professionally cleaned this also means carts are not being checked for authenticity.
4) Returns
Minutes after purchasing our games I walked back in to see if they accepted returns. They do not.
The Wrap Up:
This place seems like it’s attempting to appeal to retro game collectors but has a bit of a way to go. I was overall content with the experience but do not see it as a place I’d visit more than once every few months. When you stop doing “pawn shop” prices on games and do “game store retail” prices you MUST authenticate, clean, and test your games! Without a return policy (even eBay has buyer protection) there is the serious potential here for a buyer to get burned. On the other hand, if you really snoop out the deals you could come out with a few games at good prices. Is a visit worth your time? The only way to answer that is to go check the place out yourself. If you do I encourage you to also write your own review.
Do not try and sell anything here if you are black they will turn u away
If you’re black don’t come here. The customer service I received was rushed, unfair, and unprofessional. Sad that we still have to deal with people with racist tendencies. Honestly just take the business elsewhere because running this business being nasty towards black people in a predominantly black town is crazy.
Bad place not only really hi prices, and if you’re get bad item best believe they ain’t going to replace or refund bad hombres, stay away……
This artist is by far my favorite Independent artist. The grit, soul, and passion displayed in his lyrics is felt deep. Sizzle paint portraits and not pictures.

Arrived on time very professional new just what to do
Having my brand new dryer completely die on me was a very stressful situation, but thankfully my stress was put at ease with the help of this company. I am amazed with the service and the respect that I received from Radio TV Appliance Center. Bradley was very nice and helpful and worked beyond the service call to make sure that my appliance was back up and running. I would 100% recommend anyone to do business with them.
We have been calling Radio RV Appliance Center for the last 6 months or so to work on the appliances in our rental properties. They worked on refrigerators, stoves and dishwashers for us. Very prompt, and friendly service. They know what they are doing and don’t overcharge. We can highly recommend them.
Called about getting a washer and dryer repaired they took all my information and a week later and I haven’t heard from them. I’m very disappointed in them.
I was to have a service call by this company but they never showed up or called. I called once during the day and the lady who answered said they don’t just stop at 4, which was the end of my window. I’ve attempted to call today and no one answers or returns my messages.
I had to go with someone else for tomorrow. They actually called already and can make it today.
I would be careful as obviously customers don’t matter and they pick or choose who they want to help. I wouldn’t recommend them to even my enemy.

Great customer service and friendly. Please stop by and shop.
Wow! If you have visited Second Chance Thrift Boutique you are really missing out. The customer service is really great and I was able to find some chairs that went perfectly with my living room. Stop by, shop, and support our local downtown businesses! Tell the owner Stephanie sent you!
Great Customer Service and plenty of items to look through. I’m sure you’ll find something there. Will definitely visit often.

Friendly. Good selection of parts and gadgets for guitar players
Very knowledgable and helpful
Excellent service nicest people around would highly recommend
I wanted to know is this the type of music store that gives singing lessons. I’m trying to find a vocal coach
Portman’s music in Albany was great helpful and friendly. This is the second school term with me renting my daughters flute. I have been having trouble with the RUDENESS when I call in inquiring about my bill through the Savannah number. When I kept asking questions it always ends with “you can just return the instrument.” I called Wednesday to make a payment and ended up getting hung up on because I was told the same thing and guess what today they called my daughter school saying call them immediately! (Mr Rogers) why call my child school she doesn’t make the payment even the school was upset about the message when clearly they have my number and I answer and return calls when they try to debit my card and it’s locked I unlock it and make the payment but lately no calls just $100 payments taken off when I pay $33 a month.
Cannot say much. Open late close early and Sunday. There are few music supply stores in this part of central and south Georgia and none seem to try to cater to people who have regular jobs and cannot get there early to buy their stuff.
