Saving Money with Used Tools

Everyone owns and uses tools of some type at some point. It may just be the basic screwdriver and pliers in the kitchen drawer, or highly specialized tool sets of a professional in their given trade. The cost of such tools can range from fairly inexpensive to many hundreds of dollars. Some may be readily available while other unique tools may be more difficult to find.

Personal Electronics – Then & Now

Today, we live in the digital age of iPads, tablet computers and smart phones. Local device storage of media has given way to streaming services, with immense libraries of content available anywhere with one touch of your screen.

Outdoor Survival Gear

When we think of the great outdoors, we may picture hiking, camping, boating, hunting or other pursuit we are passionate about. We consider ourselves versed in the supplies that are appropriate for whatever activity we enjoy outdoors. But the worst case scenario is not often considered. After all, you’re well prepared for your camping trip – tent, cooler, sleeping bags, food and refreshments, check. What could possibly go wrong?

Car Audio Systems

When you are thinking of putting together a great audio system for your car, you should visit Metro Pawn & Gun.

Time for Car Audio

With spring finally making its way to Minnesota, it’s time to get your car audio system up and running. What some people may not know is that you can put together an amazing car stereo without breaking the bank. When you shop for the latest car audio components at Metro Pawn & Gun, you will be well on your way to enjoying a great system.

Extra Cash When You Need It

The old saying “one man's trash is another man's treasure” can apply to many things, and selling your items at a pawn shop is definitely one of them. We can take it a step further and say that some things you once saw as treasure can end up being trash, so to speak. Back in the college days, you may have had the most awesome stereo on the block, complete with a dual-cassette deck, turntable and speakers the size of an average refrigerator. It is on this state-of-the-art system (of its day) that you recorded those quintessential ‘mix tapes which made you the life of the party. But oh how times have changed.

TVs at Metro Pawn

Many new audio video entertainment technologies have become commonplace in the recent years, but none have progressed as far and as quickly as video displays. After the introduction of High Definition television displays in 1998, the format has evolved and grown more capable ever since. We look back on standard DVDs and the monitors designed for that type of resolution as artifacts of the past. Transitioning from 640x480 lines of resolution to 1280x720 and 1080x1920 seemed amazing in its day, but now screens with 4096 x 2160 (4K) and 7680 × 4320 (8K) resolutions are becoming the standard. Content is never far behind, and in some cases is actually the driving force behind the emergence of these standards.

Coin Collecting for Fun or Investment

Coin collecting is both a fun hobby and one that can be quite lucrative if you know what you’re doing. For some collectors, this is a very serious pursuit, while for others it may just be an enjoyable pastime. It often starts with children collecting various interesting or unusual coins, and may persist into adulthood with impressive and equally valuable portfolios. Whatever the case, coin collections can be worth a fair amount of money. If you are interested in pawning or selling your coins, or if you are looking for rare coins to add to your collection, Metro Pawn & Gun is the perfect place to visit.

Home Entertainment

Home electronics have come a long way since the days of the cassette player connected to an analog stereo amplifier and a pair of speakers. Today’s home electronics are a fusion of computer technology, Wi-Fi, streaming media and multi-channel, multi-room digital applications of every sort imaginable. Surely you would need to purchase such items at a specialty audio/video establishment, right? Well, you can, if you want to pay top-shelf prices!

Merry Christmas From Metro Pawn & Gun!

The staff of Metro Pawn & Gun want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a safe and Merry Christmas – may this holiday season bring joy and happiness to all!
