Read MoreI never thought I would find a shop that is a cross between an oddities/curiosity shop and a second hand market retailer. The store itself is a living breathing thing, changing ever so slightly all the time just as frequently as the rotation of most excellent vinyl LPs, and carries part the burden of making this place TRULY SPECIAL. The private collection of items displayed by the proprietors is worth the trip from anywhere within a reasonable distance AND you are sure to find something to bring home with you for that temporal fix of pleasure whether it be a lush new Brunei Babie for $10 or a $350 guitar.
Now when it comes to business and trade, the two brothers who run the shop while taking different approaches are the exact opposite of the stereotypical ‘pawn-broker’ (and pawn brokers they are NOT - as in they do not engage in ANY pawning services). Instead, they are not only honest and fair but take the time to explain to each and every client who may present themselves as a seller of a used item - be it gold jewelry, a rare music album, or an entire comic book collection - exactly HOW they do business and value items that they might purchase for resale. They do not ever push or pressure any individual who is perhaps in a vulnerable state and in need of cash, and more often suggest to a seller that they either sell or list an item on their own thereby acting not only in the seller’s interest but AGAINST their own. This was shocking to see but could not have been more welcome to have have witness. Like many a former pawn shop clients, I have walked away from a store having either just purchased or sold an item and find myself wondering just what the hell happened and how I got ‘taken’ but at the Exchange, I NEVER feel like I have been taken advantage of. Quite the opposite, if EITHER of the brothers who run the shop are in a position to help you or even GIVE you something that might lighten your burden if even for a moment, they will do so. They have a little bite by the CD section asking customers to not steal CDs as they would rather given them away than suspect someone of theft. I honestly believe this to be the truth!
