University Gun & Pawn Shop

Went in today on the recommendation of a friend to check out their inventory to see if they might’ve had any stamps I wanted to add to my collection. Plenty of employees around who didn’t seem to appear busy. They were apparently too busy or too proud to show their inventory to me though and were happy to treat me like I was stupid in the process. My friend told me to go back and say xyz as the magic words and I will be allowed to see the inventory that’s so secret I knew about it before having arrived for the first time. I understand to an extent but the way these people dismissed me so quickly and I can only assume because they were judging a book by its cover, I just feel bad for people who still behave that way. Everyone has money to spend these days, no matter how old someone is or how they might look. I would’ve been happy to do business here but instead left with a sour taste in my mouth and I will not be returning. I can spend my money elsewhere with people who are happier to let me do so. Imagine trying to keep a business open and profitable this day and age and you are gatekeeping half the products you are allegedly trying to sell. It just doesn’t add up. My best and Good luck.

I had a bad experience there. My husband and I (both African American) entered University Gun & Pawn after waiting the required 1 week to pick up my purchase, and there were 4 gentlemen there; 3 employees (one African American and 2 white males), and another white male customer. As I walked into the front door, the another white male employee (whom I did not meet the week prior), looked at me and yelled loudly, "You look like someone who belongs in the backseat of my car!" I was shocked and stared at him for a min. Only the three white males were laughing (uncontrollably),I did NOT think it was a funny statement, however I regained my composure and said, "I come in peace, I only want to pick up my purchase." I left feeling attacked in a sort of way which shot my anxiety through the roof because I am a disabled Veteran. I will never visit this 'business' again.

Great customer service from Graham and the rest of the staff. They know what they’re doing and treated me well. I’ll continue to do business with them.
