Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know About Pawning
Family owned, 7+ years in Orlando. We're here to make the process simple and transparent.
A little about us — what makes International Pawn different?
Unlike big chain pawn shops, we are family owned with over 7 years in the Orlando area. We have one convenient location where we treat you like an old friend, not a dollar sign. Our staff is committed to treating you with respect in a friendly, clean environment.
How does a pawn loan work?
Pawn loans are an easy way to get quick cash. You bring in an item, we evaluate it and offer a loan based on its value. The term is one month plus a 30-day grace period. If you can't pay back within that timeframe, we offer extensions and renewals. You can also choose to surrender the item — no extra penalties.
What ID do I need to get a loan?
A valid state-issued ID or driver's license. You must be 18 years old. No credit checks — your item is the only collateral we need.
How does an extension work?
If you cannot pay back your loan in full on the due date, you can get an extension by paying a portion of the interest owed. This extends your loan up to 30 more days.
How are loan amounts determined?
Loan amounts are based on the item's value and condition. Our team has years of experience valuing merchandise across jewelry, electronics, firearms, and more. We always strive to loan you top dollar.
Are my items safe while in pawn?
Absolutely. Once your items are pawned they are placed in secure, climate-controlled, on-site storage. Your items are safe with us for the duration of the loan.
Where can I sell my gold, jewelry or watches?
Right here! We offer free appraisals on all gold, jewelry, and watches. We can buy them outright, or you can take a pawn loan on them at some of the lowest interest rates in town. No early repayment penalty.
What is your interest rate?
We charge a flat 10% fee on all pawn loans. Other shops in the Orlando area charge 15-25% per month. We think that's unfair — so we keep it at 10%, period.
Do you buy guns and ammo?
Yes — we are a licensed FFL firearms dealer. We buy, sell, and pawn handguns, rifles, shotguns, and accessories. All transactions are handled legally in compliance with Florida state law.
Can I pay off my loan early?
Yes — there is no early repayment penalty. You can pay off your loan at any time during business hours and pick up your item immediately.
