No pawnshop is open on Sunday that I’ve ever seen!  The guys that work there are friendly, professional and fast. They also have an interesting system I’ve never seen before. If you have a small item like diamond jewelry, they seal it in an envelope then put a numbered strip over the seal that matches your pawn ticket number so when you retrieve your item you can see the seal hasn’t been broken. Loved that! Also I overlooked my final notice from them by a few days and panicked when I thought my item would be gone, but they still had it, so needless to say I LOVE BALBOA PAWNSHOP!!","rating":5,"date_published":"2018-19-08"},{"author_name":"Aldo S.","review_text":"1 of the better pawn shops in the valley. you can trust this place with your goods.","rating":5,"date_published":"2015-05-05"},{"author_name":"annn56","review_text":"This is the best pawn shop in the Valley!","rating":5,"date_published":"2013-04-11"},{"author_name":"wadee142","review_text":"Everyone was very friendly and we had a wonderful experience.","rating":5,"date_published":"2013-31-10"},{"author_name":"nathaell941","review_text":"This is the most professional pawn shop in the SF Valley and entire area!!! 5 stars for great ownership and customer service!","rating":5,"date_published":"2013-24-10"},{"author_name":"alexiss698","review_text":"First time ever at a Pawn shop and it was a great experience and I will be back for sure.","rating":5,"date_published":"2013-15-10"},{"author_name":"racioppia236","review_text":"From my first time here all employees have been professional and very helpful.
