Place is a ripoff if you need the money sell on eBay… Absolute scam never going back.

1st time customer here; This place is Great! Met the owner and had a great B2B chat. Ended up selling a covered collection to him and felt very comfortable with the deal. Clean establishment and very well maintained. As a close friend of mine says " I'll be Back"!!!

Fixed up and traded in a chainsaw I had sitting around for a guitar amp, got a pretty decent deal however it could've been better. Not to mention, one of the guys there was laughing about it. I showed up the next day to pick up the amp and he acted like he didn't remember me. Good place for a quick turnaround, not very people-friendly. Definitely out for themselves. If you're looking to get the best bang for your buck, i would go somewhere else.

Nice people but no place to go for coin or bullion. for silver bars they were 20% below spot to buy but selling generic silver rounds at nearly 65% over, absolutely wild margins

If you are interested in bullion or coins, this really isn’t the place to go. Price on silver is 70-100% higher here than you can get it anywhere else. Example: 90% Washington quarters are at $3.51 spot right now, and they want $7 per. That is absolutely outrageous, my main coin dealer charges spot +1 dollar. They want $3 for FDR dimes, can get them for $1.9 elsewhere. Nice people though I guess.

The prices seem fair on most things. Most of the employees are personable too.However, one claims knowledge but didn't touch, investigate, or even get close enough to see what I was asking about.I was told you can't get gems at a gold mine and my gem was fake. Jewelry side said there are no lapidaries they know of and no jewelry cutters in Georgia.There's a lapidary in Dahlonega and at least two jewel cutters in Dahlonega as well. Mary is the lapidary and her husband is one of the jewelers. They have well over 40 years of legitimate experience. Consolidated Gold Mine has a mine, panning for gold, and... you guessed it...gem mining.They professionally appraised this "fake" emerald at $500. I just brought it in to see what I'd be told.

All these folks are are a bunch of con artists who sold me broken equipment won't buy it back rip me off on every time I've tried to do a pawn or a trade. I'm in the middle of a lawsuit now trying to shut these folks down they should get the paperwork in about a month I'm also in the middle of pressing charges against these folks for theft by deception theft by conversion fraud. So save yourself the heartache and the hassle and take it somewhere else I mean once I win the lawsuit against them bring it to me cuz I'll be fair with you.

I believe pawn shops have to make money but these guys are pretty funny. Offered me $175 for $158 worth of ammo I bought at Walmart after tax. I wasn't even selling it for double the price. Their loss. My roommate works at Walmart and is able to get it with his discount. Another pawn shop in Athens has got my business for now on. I left them 3 stars because they do have some nice items here and everyone was friendly.

Thornton's pawn and Jewelry are by far the best people I have ever done business with! They go above and beyond for their costumers. Very kind and has helped me and my family a lot of times plus we gets really good deals and their prices are top rate! The staff as Thornton's are truly friendly and helpful. Above all they have always shown and treated me with respect and honesty! I cannot say this for most other pawnshops. They are truly the only ones I really trust and due to many years of business they did earned my trust, "which I cannot say that much about other stores, shops businesses etc! Thank you to all the staff at Thornton's Pawn and fine jewelry! For all the help and needs. I look forward in doing even more business with them for years to come. Thank you Thornton's staff for all that you have done for me and my friends, family and others that I have sent your way. Sincerely ~Jacob G. Buck~

I went to Thornton's Pawn Shop, the staff are very friendly people, they have a sense of humor and one even helped me find one of my favorite games as a kid. Both times I came in were for some Nintendo DS games. They have a wide range of games from Gameboy Sega to Ps4 which are marked down to great prices. They have more stuff to sell such as equipment and coins and other items. I would definitely go again and will recommend my peers. :)
