Uptown Trading

Disclaimer - This is my cousins store, but I have seen him with customers on several occasions. He's always been fair with customers, and 9 times out of 10 people walk away happy with their deal (you can't please everyone). Also, his prices on the things they sell in store can't be beat... Definitely worth giving a shot

Every time I go, the people are super nice, helpful and great on pricing. I've purchased several things and pawned sever things and each time they've been nothing but a pleasure to do business with. The family that works there I love them to bits! They remember me when I come in and genuinely have a caring, non judgemental attitude.

Nice people, good prices I'm very recommending this place !!

I would like to start off by saying I rarely leave a review of anything online unless I either had great or horrific experience. I am pleased to say that this was one of those exceptional times. First of all, wow! This is hands down the cleanest pawn shop I have shopped at. The inventory is neatly stacked, labeled and priced. While the store itself is on the smaller side, the amount of products they offer is not. Just like any other pawn shop, there is a surplus of speakers, power tools, dvd/cd’s, jewelry and much more. I have made multiple trips to the store and can attest to the quality of the goods they offer is of a higher grade than the average pawn shop. However, what I found that really separates Uptown Trading from most other shops is the staff, which is very personable and is eager to assist you. I had the pleasure of meeting Bill, a full time employee who not only greeted me personally as I walked into the store, but was extremely patient with me as I inspected each guitar. The individual attention made me feel comfortable that I was receiving a great product for a very reasonable price. I would like to point out I was not pressured into purchasing anything or constantly being up sold to something out of my price range. Uptown trading will continue to see my business and comes highly recommended. Happy shopping!

I bought a nice midi patch bay / processor for my analog music production setup from this store. I got it for a great price as well. The store has a great selection of studio/audio equipment, guitars, retro video games, dvds, drones, and more! The owner bill is super helpful and fun to talk to. Top notch!

Additional review:

My family and I are so greatful for Uptown Trading and the excellent adventures we have when we come here. Great finds and an extensive collection, they will go above and beyond to help you get what you need. I honestly have had nothing but amazing experiences here. I can not begin to tell you how amazing these guys are. They will honestly treat you like family and go above and beyond in making each customer feel welcomed, valued, respected, and give you the best customer service anyone could ask for. An awesome place to buy, sell, and trade. I will never go anywhere else. Definitely one of those places that deserves much more recognition
and attention. Go there today!! :)

Awesome experience! So helpful, professional friendly and clean. Such a great place to go! This is going to be my Go to place!! They make it their goal to get your needs met. Even made a point of reaching out to make sure I was able to sell the things I had needed to, when other shops had misled me. Thanks to Bill the manager, and really awesome staff and owner! and I couldnt be happier with my experience!

Very happy with you Guys. Here you are treated Like Family.Great management! Best family own business In Town. Very Honest and Reasonable . They will always work with you! John is a very smart and understanding will always give you a great Deal and good price! Highly Recommend!

The shop was clean, organized and well stocked. The prices were spot on, and Bill was super friendly and helpful. Stopped in here to kill some time, and ended up emptying my pockets. Ha! Definitely worth a trip to check this place out!

This place does not look like a pawn shop. It's so clean and organized. The staff is very friendly. The prices are great. I could not believe the computer I bought, was like brand new and the price lower then other places I shopped. Bill one of the workers was extremely helpful. I would shop there over and over.

Cleanest pawn shop I've ever been in, the prices are fantastic and the staff is friendly and very willing to negotiate for a fair deal. Not your typical pawn shop, highly recommended that you give them a look. They had jewelry, tv's and tools, as well as some other crazy stuff, the last time I was in.

Bill the manager is very personable and professional. I sold some scrap gold and the price was very fair and it was a great experience overall. I would recommend Uptown over some of the other local gold buyers. I will definitely do business here again.

I wandered into this pawn store last night. This was my second visit and both times the man behind the counter was nice and not in my face which is common in places like this and even more important they have fair prices which is rare at pawn shops. I purchased a single board computer at a very fair used price and when i opened it it was new! I will go back and if you are nearby why not check it out?

Went to other places to get pricing on two wedding bands and was getting the run round about prices. The guy here was very fair in pricing explain how he prices right in front of me & I walked out with cash. He was very friendly & made sure I was satisfied with my experience! Would highly recommend!!

I have been to many pawnshops but this place treated me like a real person, unlike the other pawnshops I have been to. I bought a 65 inch flatscreen TV. The price was great and Bill the manager was great. Best pawnshop in Connecticut.

Excellent staff and merchandise. Bill the manager and Jon the don (owner) are always willing to help out and give the highest prices possible. Loans are straightforward and one of the lowest pawn interest rates around. Come here for the professional staff to get a fair pawn or sell your item. Also a wide range of tools, electronics, collectables and other unique stuff at at lower than retail prices.

I've been here about 5 or six times and every time I got good and quick service. They are negotiable with their prices and you get good and fair deals. Overall it's a good pawnshop and I would recommend checking it out.

I tried to pawn my circular saw at other pawn shops in the area and they wouldn't accept it. I came down to Uptown Pawn. I was able to pawn it for $20 when all places won't accept it. And they only charged me $4 on top of what I got for it. Which is awesome because all other places charge at least $10 on top to get your item back out. I'm definitely coming back here if I have to pawn anything

Definitely not like other pawn shops in the area. Gave me a great price for jewelry I was no longer wearing! Definitely will be back. Super helpful staff!

Came in and had a wide variety of what I was looking for as well as many of everything you could expect at a pawn shop, but the majority is quality of as close to new as it could come. Owner is a great honest guy and tells it how it is. I'd recommend coming here WAY before going to the competition down the street

When going to uptown trading I was very impressed by the employee Ralph that worked there. Ralph assisted me with all the questions I had about the flet screen tv I purchased there. I will recommend this pawn shop to anyone A+++ service.
