Bend Pawn & Trading Co-Lapine in La Pine, Oregon

I've come to this pawn shop for years mainly for games movies and a few tools. They've always been nice and I've never had a problem there

Someone I know is very interested in starting a business in la pine and he called the pawnshop to ask the owner some questions about his experience starting up the business and how to keep it going the owner said “there’s fast food places hiring in bend go get a job” and hung up. He was very rude and disrespectful when we went into the pawnshop face to face and even more rude over the phone. I do not recommend going to the pawnshop in la pine unless you absolutely have to. Me and everyone I know will not be going there anymore.

Incredibly rude! The trash that they sell here is extremely overpriced! Shop here if you like dealing with meth addicted personnel!

Some of the rudest people I’ve met in la pine. Gave me a quote. Thought about it before agreeing, then accepted and they said sorry now your item is only worth this much.... instead of explaining when we called them out they decided to huff and puff in a very passive aggressive manner. I’ll drive to bend for my guitar strings from now on, which they sale for double the price.

The guy on the phone didn’t know what Hermès or Louis Vuitton was. I asked to speak to an owner and he hung up. What amazes me is the unbelievably bad selection in this store. They have two old guys who don’t know anything about buying proper items so they are overloaded with ridiculous junk. For example, they are stacked with USED T SHIRTS. They were foolish enough to buy USED T SHIRTS and other worthless junk that they now say they can’t purchase items they would actually be able to sell. I have never been so frustrated dealing with a pawn shop employee i might as well have spoken to someone drinking on the job . I have never met anyone in a pawn shop that is literally clueless to everything I tell them. Or is clueless about so many items. Or can’t buy valuable items because he foolishly stocked the store with insanely dumb items like used t shirts. I cannot express the level of bad this store is. Think of any criticism you can provide a pawn shop. Dirty. Bad location. Dumb employees. Horrible selection. Lack of ability to buy numerous items. Smelly. Rip offs. There is literally no criticism I can think of that this pawn shop doesn’t commit. They said they aren’t hiring either so this terrible state of their business will be around for a while. There is no way to succced if you have an imbecile working for you like the one i spoke to yesterday. Rude, unprofessional, unresourceful, and like I said , I might as well have been dealing with someone drinking on the job
