  • The plaintiff pawned jewelry at the defendant’s pawn shop. She claims the defendant’s store lost her jewelry, so she’s suing for the value of her items. The defendant says he has no idea what happened to her jewelry, and they are not responsible for theft or loss. The defendant claims he offered her money and items from his catalog.

    We used to be close with our neighbors, we were called "the siamis twins", [I'm not sure about the spelling of siamis☹️]. There was so much we had in common even though we came from two totally different worlds. I loved it that we broke the racial barrier in the entire neighborhood and mocked the haters very loudly accompanied with even louder laughter. The husbands did many things together, guy stuff that us girls were like 🖕 be gone and play with your tools. We had our properties fenced in together with a gate in the middle so the girls could escape the handyman talks. Everything was so awesome for about five years. Unfortunately the neighbour broke a trust rule that involved coworkers and friends of ours. All over lousy 500 bucks. There is much more to the story, but I don't think it's a good idea to bring everything up. Anyway, the closeness was gone, the trust was broken and Unfortunately he [neighbor] did not fess up to his wrongdoing. This happened almost a quarter of a century ago. Our friendship never recovered. ☹️😥

    The pawn shop owner only wanted to give her the melted down value of the “lost” jewelry and that’s probably what he did , melted down the jewelry as soon as it was pawed thinking she was never coming back. She even came back and made a loan payment so he had to have known she wanted her items back. The guy is claiming he has no idea what happened when really he’s just being dishonest.

    Before I asked my wife to marry me, I asked my mom to go with me to pick out a nice wedding ring.
    She told me that she knew of a pawnshop that had high end jewelry., so we went there.
    The ring that I bought was a custom made ring.
    My mom asked him if she could take it to her appraiser and he told her yes bc my mom bought a lot of jewelry from him in the past. The appraiser said it was worth $5K.
    We went back to the pawnshop and asked how much they were asking. The man said he would sell it to me for what he paid for it, which was $800.
    My wife has gotten many compliments on it.
    One of her patients was a jeweler and looked at it. He asked where she got it and she said that I bought it from a pawnshop. He too said that it was worth about $5K. My wife laughed and told him how much I paid for it.
    He then told her that I got a killer deal.

She couldn’t even prove all them pieces were all real, of good quality, their age, etc!

It's hard to believe that she left a $1900 Tiffanys piece (among many other things) and only got $300. Sucks to be the defendant though!

      And she got more than the $3,500 for it. When you add on the money the pawn shop already gave her for it at the time of the loan. Even if they made her pay to get the electronics back which is highly unlikely, she still didn’t have to pay to get the jewelry back surely. So if half of the $300 was for jewelry then total she received $3,650. If they didn’t make her pay anything to get her electronics back, which they never stated, then that would be a total of $3,800. If that’s the depreciated value? I’m having a hard time buying the jewelry’s value also. And that’s probably why she didn’t bother to get more information from the previous pawn shop (other than photos). She knew it wasn’t worth all that. Materialistically speaking.
      Surprised she didn’t try to sue for the finance charges back also. The judge would have surely said no to that as she would have had to pay that regardless but I’m surprised the plaintiff didn’t try.
      Bonanza? I’m not mad though. The shop needed to learn their lesson. Wouldn’t they have insurance for these types or situations?

    When you pawn something, you sign a paper stating that you won't hold them liable for lost, stolen or damaged items, it's right on the pawn ticket, so by law she shouldn't have gotten anything. I'm glad she did but just further evidence that 9 out of 10 times JM will rule more favorably for women than men. I seen another similar case but it was a guy and the judge gave him nothing. It's not about law to her, it's about her mood in the moment. I love this show but JM really frustrates me at times.
