Christchurch's Original
Pawn Shop Since 1989
Three locations, a dedicated team, and a simple mission - bring value to everyone who walks through our doors.
Our Story
The Pawn Shop opened in 1989 on Tuam Street, a single store serving central Christchurch. After a fire in 2003 we relocated to 77 Ferry Road, and from there grew into the three stores we run today - Ferry Road, Riccarton Road, and Blenheim Road. Locally owned and operated throughout.
Through earthquakes, rebuilds, and a global pandemic, we've kept our doors open and our promise the same: fair prices, honest dealings, and a welcoming experience for everyone.
Licensed Dealers
Licensed under the Secondhand Dealers and Pawnbrokers Act 2004.
30-Day Warranty

In-House Repairs

Fair Value
We pay fair prices and sell at fair prices. Whether you're buying, selling, or borrowing, you'll always get a straight deal.
Trust & Transparency
Every gold item is XRF tested. Every transaction is above board. We've built our reputation over three decades, and we intend to keep it.
