Jewelry Exchange & Loan Water St, Cahokia

I trusted Chris with my 1 carat diamond studs. I wanted to have screw backs put on them to guarantee their safety. It was a horrible mistake. I received no word about my earrings for some time and when I checked on them he said they were done and charged me $80. He’d already taken the money when I looked and saw that no work had been done. He quickly said he had been mistaken; it was just the jeweler’s estimate. He’d send them back out. Again I received no notification so I went back. This time they were really ready. However, he wanted me to pay on my estranged husband’s pawn ticket. I told him I didn’t want to and that it would take everything I had to make that payment. He continued to pressure me, at one point stating, “Your earrings will always be here.” The next time I returned of course my earrings were nowhere to be found. No apology, no compensation. It’s my fault for not getting them sooner.

Great place. Fair and friendly. Will take good care of ya and if ya need a little more than they want to give on a pawn they will work with ya. Just a good place.

Love these guy oakly Chris best dudes ever

These guys come in handy if your in a bind. Brought a car from them to, very fair. I still do business with them best prices in town!

Affordable and customer service is great 👍

Best place around!!! They got fair prices & great customer service. Oakley,John, & Chris are always cool and give customers awesome deals, my dad always went to them and got hooked up so does my family and I. Definitely worth checking them out

I've got great deals on things like tools and speakers. But they also pay more than usual pawn shops on everything I've sold or pawned.

John,Oakley and Chris are some good and far guys! They got me a great deal on my wife engagement ring and everything else I buy. And when I'm in a bind I know I can swing by there and they will take care of me...

I don't have enough space to type all the good thangs about the owners and staff here. I stop in to see what unique stuff they get in and talk for about an hour. Really gr8 bunch of guys

Not very big, but it's packed with all kinds of goodies. From electronics, to tools. Power tools and hand tools. They have great deals. The guys running the place are easy to work with, and seem to be very knowledgeable on just about everything, as any pawn shop employee should be.
