Do most pawn customers lose their merchandise?
Response: On average, about 80 percent of all loans are repaid. Repeat customers make up most of the business, similar to any other lending or retail establishment. Pawnbrokers know the vast majority of their customers because they often borrow against the same items over and over again. Pawnbrokers offer non-recourse loans, looking only to the item being pledged to recover their investment if the borrower chooses not to repay the loan. It is solely the choice of the customer whether they elect to repay the loan.
