Pawn Shops in Oakland, CA

“This location is now closed was a super fair place to come to I go to a new location now 1904 foothill blvd Oakland Ca they just opened up but they are super fair on prices as well!! Gonna miss this place tho”

“Amazing expertise and service. I brought jewelry and coins from an estate. They spent so much time on valuing the stuff and gave excellent advice for free. Then they gave $ for the stuff I wanted to sell on the spot. I got them to value stuff I didn't want to sell too, for free. What a great, easy experience. I trust them, super local business. Highly recommend.”

“Every time I go into Best collateral the employees are always ready to help assist in any way that they can the parking lot is always clean the manager is very helpful the employees are very helpful also”

“Looking at reviews, you'd expect this place to be run by a bunch of crooks, maybe cigar smoke and dimly lit office where a bunch of shady business happens. However, my experiences were not only met but, exceeded. I do understand that each persons experience can differ from the next due to attitude, misunderstandings, and multiple other factors between both customers and staff, this is the nature of business.The shelves were stocked with pretty nice items and the prices were fair(ill get to this later) I think this is one of the places that had a lot happen to it during the riots and such. So the last time I visited it was a bit sparse.Yesterday 8/17/2021I went into this location looking for an item I saw Offerup, sent a message through that app when they responded I made my way over. I ended up finding two items better than the one I was looking for. I made an offer(serious offer), the guy working with me(I don't recall his name) gave me the typical "let me see what I can do" and to be honest looking at the reviews, you wouldn't quite expect much. This is where my opinion of this location improved.He grabbed my two items, went to the back and start punching keys. His reply was we aren't too far apart on pricing, even with this, I was expecting to pay more than what I thought I would get. I paid less. Even though he could have charged more, he came through and made me pay less than what I expected!. No arguing, no bad vibes, no rudeness, none of the stuff "I" expected from a pawnshop.12/7/2022Visited on a whim. everything is still all boarded up. Saw a set of headphones made and offer, got accepted. Now own a really nice pair of Sony on ear headphones. Will keep coming back here. The staff is always friendly to me.”
