I recently visited Hilltop Pawn for the first time and was blown away by my experience. The store has a sophisticated and elegant atmosphere, more akin to a high-end antique shop or jewelry store, rather than a typical pawn shop. Despite its upscale appearance, I found the staff to be welcoming and friendly, which made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in.

I went in for a loan on some jewelry and was impressed by the knowledge of the woman who assisted me at the counter. She informed me that I could actually receive a loan for a higher amount than what I was originally asking for, which was a pleasant surprise. No other store has ever told me this information! Additionally, I learned that I could retrieve the extra cash at any time during the month if I needed it, which was a convenient option.

I also inquired about layaway for purchasing jewelry and was pleased to find out that they offer it. The store had a vast collection of stunning pieces, including a impressive selection of guitars.

Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with Hilltop Pawn. Their professionalism and warm demeanor made me feel confident in their expertise, which is not something I have always experienced at other pawn shops in town. As such, I will be switching over to this store for all my future pawn needs. Thank you, Hilltop Pawn!

Whether it’s for a birthday or an anniversary, Hilltop Pawn Shop offers the best fit for every celebration. I’ve never gone wrong with any of their recommended products. Every time I buy a gift, they package it so beautifully. And their assortment of diamond products consists of items that are always in fashion and are appealing to the eye. Unlike some other pawn shops I’ve been to, Hilltop Pawn Shop employees people who’ll give you clear direction and expert opinion on whichever product you intend to buy…like that you never go wrong even with colors, signs, and some deep meanings that a gift may have.

My fiancé and I set out to get a birthday present for my dad. We didn’t have a lot of money and so we had to go the pawn shop way as opposed to some first class shops. The surprising thing is that we got great quality and an assortment to choose from. The pricing was equally fair…oh yes, we even got change.

The most powerful thing about Hilltop Pawn shop is the employees. The employees are available to answer any questions you have. When they advise you to purchase a given product, it’s after analyzing what you need it for so that you don’t buy something that won’t add so much value.

As someone who’s literally crazy about watches…oh, I mean changing watches, I always like a place where I can resell what I don’t need to earn some money for the next watch in fashion. I knew of pawn shops, but had a SERIOUSLY crooked opinion about them and the services they offer. My bro told me of a nearby pawn shop called Hilltop Pawn shop. I visited the shop and held a discussion with them about how much they pay for watches and the criteria they use to determine the price.

I was happy and that very evening, I sold the first watch to them, which fetched me well over $500. I was expecting something between $350 and $400. Great service, great people!!!

Okay, I can’t find a way to that Hilltop Pawn Shop enough. I needed a personal loan…and I checked places to see where I could get the highest with my palmtop. It’s great I got to know about Hilltop Pawn Shop after trying out a few pawn shops in Virginia Beach. This was by far the best I came across…right from the reception, displays, service, to the final sale.

I got the money within a few minutes and was given enough to sort out my situation comfortably. Plus it’s the only pawn shop that gave me all the information I needed to help me make a decision while understanding the possible consequences.

If anyone asked me, I would say that Hilltop Pawn shop’s customer service is just like any other that I’ve been to. The biggest catch they have is that they combine a real pawn shop feel and that of a high end shop. They have a variety of items with diverse price tags that would fit any budget. It would be an overstatement to say that they are wholesale prices and equally an understatement to say they have retail prices. They fall somewhere in the middle, making it an ideal place to pop in to pick stuff.

Another notable thing is that my experience with this pawn shop has revealed to me that they know a lot about stuff, yeah, any stuff for a pawn shop. And it isn’t just one employee, but all that I’ve interacted with. I like that!

I’ve always found it difficult to swap stuff yet I also don’t have money to purchase whatever I need urgently. My cousin told me about pawn shops and I decided to try one out. However, that brought with it another series of disappointments since most of the pawn shops paid peanuts. Something miraculous happened, and I bumped on my friend right in front of Hilltop Pawn shop and he told me he had just come from there to get a loan. I decided to check it out and it was out of this world. Since then, I’ve taken loans more than five times from this very pawn shop and I haven’t experienced any issues.

Hilltop Pawn shop is my number one choice store for Christmas gifts. Many shops take their prices to the ceiling when Christmas is around the corner. At some point last year when approaching Christmas, I walked several shops to get a diamond gift for my mom, but all of them had set too high prices.

When I was tired and headed back home, I saw Hilltop Pawn shop sign and decided to walk in. I saw some gift that I felt would be the perfect one for my mom and when I enquired about the price, I thought I heard it wrong. That was the price and I bought it. Close to half of what I could have spent if I went to another shop. Yes, my number one choice.

I still miss my Yamaha MIDI Keyboard, though I console myself that at least I knew when I was taking a loan and more so that I got a good amount in loan. The main reason why many people have a bad opinion about pawn shops is because it’s always a challenge knowing whether what you’re being told is the truth or otherwise. But with Hilltop Pawn shop, the story is totally different as they tell you everything as it is before striking the deal.

Plus the way they value collateral makes a lot of sense to me. They look at several things that influence the amount at which they will resale something before they give you a loan. Wonderful!!!

I got my first Omega watch from Hilltop Pawn shop and it came at great price. It was some sort of luck since I had searched for this exact watch but in most shops it was so so expensive. What I got was brand new yet the price was almost half of the prices I got in other shops. The shop is in a very safe place with several taxi points that enable customers to buy and move with their items easily.

The place is very much organized with all the products properly arranged in a manner that makes it easier for customers to identify what they want. Very well done!

This is the best pawn shop you can get out there. Number one thing you notice about this shop is the way they welcome you to the shop. Many pawn shops just feel like you need them and therefore they don’t do anything to make you feel at home. I bought gold from them and it was pure gold sold at an attractive price. I was warmly welcome into the shop and after I’d told them what I wanted to buy, they gave me proper directions on how to go about it.

Will be back for more gold.

At times it might be difficult to tell that staff members are offering wonderful and wholehearted services, especially when dealing with businesses that are strict on customer service. But buying or selling stuff to different pawn shops will present you with an opportunity to know the shops whose employees are dedicated or otherwise. I take my hat off for Hilltop Pawn shop as they have categorically proved to me that all their staff members truly understand and enjoy what they are doing. A highly recommended pawn shop!

From top rated Rolex, Movado to Omega watches, Hilltop Pawn shop has it all. I’m crazy about watches and I've bought so many of them from them because of the way the treat me, their quality and variety. Besides selling to me, they've taught me several things about watches, how to match them up with clothes and maintenance.

As a result of their wonderful service, I've bought hundreds of other items from them and they've always happened to be the right choices. You the leaders in this game!

Honestly, am not sure whether I got a good amount in loan for my JBL speakers or not, but what I can say is that Hilltop Pawn staff members who worked with me that day are the best someone can work with. Within a very short time, they had given me all the relevant information about their loans, repayment and how they value valuables that are deposited with them as security for loans. They tested the speakers, did one or two things and, yeees, I got the loan. Just like that!
