Tobey's Pawn Shop

Tobey's Pawn Shop operates two locations in Charlottesville—Rio Road and Pantops—built around a simple idea: pawn is 3,000 years old, but it doesn't have to feel ancient.

• •Firearms section with used and new inventory
• •Jewelry buying and selling
• •General merchandise pawning
• •Online gun store for remote purchases
• •Standard pawn loans and trades

Instead of the stereotypical pawn shop experience, Tobey's has redesigned the space and process. They handle firearms properly—transfers through licensed channels, background checks handled correctly—while keeping the flexibility of a pawn model where you can buy, sell, or trade.

If you need quick cash against a firearm or want to sell used guns without dealer markup, this is a functional alternative to traditional gun stores.
