I have a pawn shop good story

I went into a pawn shop and found a Washburn spitfire
Was a luthier 36 fret model from the 80s
Got it for 70 bucks because the pickup was not wired in.

Few years down the road sold it for $1700
Was amazed

So pawn shops are not that bad.
In today's internet market the pawn shop is a bit
Of a dinosaur , you have to be really hard up to use one now.
