I really don’t think the white guys at this shop likes dealing with black people. I visited this place on two occasions. The first time, I tried to sell them a microwave, and a DVD recorder, which both worked perfectly. They passed on buying the microwave, because of a “so-called” rust spot inside of it. They rejected the DVD recorder, because of a few scratches on it. They act like they only take items which are like new, but looking around at the things they had for sale, I saw many items which looked well worn! The second time I went in there with my wife, who wanted to buy a small gun. She doesn’t know anything about guns, so she asked me, “ Which one should I get?” I told her, “If you want to know anything about their guns, then you should ask them…I’m not in it.” So she went to one of the guys, who initially ignored her by continuing to converse with his co-worker, then finally asked her, “How can I help you?” She told him that she wanted to buy a small gun. The guy refused to sell her a gun by saying, “It looks like a drop buy, so I’ll have to pass.” Basically, the pawn broker automatically judged us, figuring that she was buying the gun for me. I found that ridiculous, because most men would not be caught dead with a .25 caliber handgun, and I am one of those “most men!” So, if you are not white, I do not recommend doing any type of business with P&J's Pawn Shop at 4501 Columbia Ave., Dallas, TX 75226. Their slogan should really read, “The Pawn Shop With Prejudiced Personality!”
