Where is Dynasty Located?
Dynasty Jewelry and Loan currently has one location in Greater Atlanta in Norcross at 5075 Jimmy Carter Blvd. Norcross, Ga 30093.
Do you have a set value you assign for certain items?
Dynasty looks at every item individually. We assess the item and assign a loan value based on key factors about the item such as the market value and condition.
What is the difference between buying and getting a pawn loan?
Buy:
When we buy or purchase an item, you simply sell the item to us for cash immediately.
Pawn Loan:
When you take out a loan at Dynasty, we secure your items until you pay back the loan. Loan terms are 30 days – you can pick up the loan anytime within the 30 days by paying the principle + the interest of the money borrowed. Need more time? You can simply pay the interest to extend the loan term another 30 days. Should your needs change and you do not pay back the loan, you forfeit the item without any worry of an impact to your credit score or your ability to borrow from us in the future.
My item has already been appraised – will I get the same value when I sell or get a loan?
Generally speaking, most appraisals are written for insurance purpose replacement value. This is often an inflated retail value that is way above the current resale value. We appraise items based on the current resale market of the item.
Do I need an appointment?
Part of The Dynasty Difference are our convenient store hours and you never need an appointment, we are here to serve you!. For most circumstances, walk-ins are always welcome! It may be a good idea, however, to call in advance in case you have something we may not typically purchase, or a rare find, or something that may need additional research or specialists.
Does Dynasty charge for appraising my items when buying or loaning?
There is no obligation to sell or get a loan on your items. We give you a value we feel comfortable buying or pawning your item and then the decision is yours.
If you want a written appraisal for your jewelry for insurance purposes, we do charge a very low, competitive price!
