Recession is a part of the endlessly fluctuating cycle of life for businesses, helping the strong survive, pushing the weak out of the running and reminding everyone to appreciate it when things are going well! The other thing recession does is give certain types of businesses a boost, encouraging people to shop places they would normally avoid and look to sources of income that they would normally consider to be inferior or tacky.
In other words, in the middle of a recession is a great time to be a pawn shop!\
Yes, pawn shops are feeling the pinch just like everyone else, but let's face it-if you're going to go looking for cheap electronics devices, jewelry and one of a kind gifts anyplace but Amazon or eBay, where better to go than a pawn shop? They're able to offer a huge selection of second hand items that they've purchased from people just like you looking for a way to unload their excess belongings for a profit. (Did you know that the average American has a minimum of $5,000 worth of "junk" lying around their house?)
Pawn shops tend to have a ready supply of inventory, and although they pay for the pieces they purchase they're still able to keep their shelves stocked for considerably less than the average electronics store-and the diversity of their inventory means they usually manage to corner their own share of the market without having to put too much effort into advertising. Pawn shops have seen a boom in business in every economic dip that history has seen, and it's a trend that continues into today's business world.
