Are pawnshops stocked with stolen merchandise?
All items obtained by America’s Super Pawn are processed through an Internet-based crime-fighting tool called leadsonline.com, where information on all pawn and sold items is shared with police departments nationwide. All items are held for 30 days before cleared by local authorities and only then are available for sale. Regardless of what you see on TV and in the movies, pawnshops are the worst place to get rid of stolen merchandise, and criminals know about that.
