CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
"Hardcore Pawn: Chicago" is truTV's biggest series launch ever, and it just got renewed for a second season. Their South Loop location features some very cool items, waiting for your trade.
Royal Pawn is located on S. Clark Street. Randy and Wayne Cohen own the shop, and said the public's fascination with businesses like theirs lies in the fact that people pawn the wildest items.
From a Corvette motor on a bar stool to a solid gold Rolex watch, these pieces can be worth thousands – and they're typically sitting in forgotten boxes in packed attics across the nation.
And everyone could use a little more money, to help pay the bills. Visit Randy and Wayne today!
