    but i did get my PG M44 at a pawn shop.payed 95.00 for it.

    that was about 6 or 7 years back.was told it retailed for about 900 when new.and it was only 7 or 8 years old.

    pawn shop is where you go sell other peoples stuff to **** them off.. or stolen stuff either way.

    it depends on the shop.i've been dealing with the same shop off and on for 9 years now. i pop in at least once a month to check out what they have. thats how i found my M44.

    i got a real sweet deal on some xbox games. 5.00 each.

    well what i do know about the shop owner is that he will get on the internet to check the value of whatever somone brings in.then he tells him what he can give him/her for it.

    i bought a bose center ch from him 2 years back. he was asking 175.00,but when he checked.it was and is still selling for 200. then we negociated for 125 even.a fair price.he even checked ebay and there were 2 going for 150ish each.

    he's always got old school punch amps and old school hifonics for sale.saw a punch 150 for 99.00.

    I walk into pawn shops on occasion but all I ever find is Pyramid crap. They must have contracts with pawn shops cuz every one of them has new Pyramid stuff. :D Occasionally there will be something of better quality but it will look beat up and will be marked too high. :eek:
