Trading Post Corporation

"Trading Post was great! We stopped in a week ago to sell some items and to look around for our first time. We have watched many of the YouTube videos and had an idea of what to expect. Peter accepted our offer for our items and meanwhile we found some items in the shop to purchase. Our finds included vintage dairy cans, John Deere sign, vintage PEZ, pokemon card, and an old railroad lantern! There is a variety of things to look at: tools, equipment, antiques, collectables, music /vinyl , sports and more. It was really neat learning about some pieces and see things we never have seen before. Will be back next time we have a chance to get back north. Thanks Peter, Ruby, Ms. Walters, and Honey!!!"

"Peter and staff are very friendly and honest. You do not get that pawn shop vibe at all when you are trying to sell something. I brought in a watch and a nice pen. He offered a fair amount for them and I was happy. Check out their channel on you tube Craigslist Hunter."

"Ignore the 1 star reviews from losers who tried to sell junk for top dollar new price. Pete is a great guy and he treats people respectfully and fairly. I have been there once and they have a lot of nice merchandise at fair prices. I saw some antiques i would buy in a second but I flew in to Chicago from Arizona and obviously couldn’t take them home. I could’ve shipped via UPS but unfortunately they have been less than reliable in treating merchandise carefully. Keep up the excellent work Pete you are a great inspiration to other immigrants who have found success in this country! (Pete is from Poland) Wszystkiego najlepszego, mój przyjacielu."

"Great folks! Those complaining about "lowball" offers, IT'S A PAWN SHOP, why did you walk into one thinking they were going to give you top dollar? They've got expenses in running the business for one, but how have you never in your life heard that pawn shops are not the place to go to get top dollar. Want more for your items, do the work yourself, sell it on ebay, or Facebook Marketplace, where you'll have the added pain of shipping or meeting up with a stranger. Also keep in mind, just because you think something is worth an amount, does not make it so. If your item is a tough seller, any reseller is going to give you less, because now they're out the money and may not get it back for years."

"Went in to try and sell to the staff if they were interested, and buy an item I saw on the shelf. I waited around for 10-15 minutes for this guy to stop talking to some girl about a band, and how he’s a drummer. The guy pushes and pushes for a sale after hearing her say multiple times she’s not interested, won’t buy it today. Gonna check out guitar center, and her band mates Store first… meanwhile multiple customers (including me) interested in ACTUALLY purchasing/selling items are blown off because this guy is a drummer. I tried to get the guy to catch the hint without being rude but his social awareness is non existent. First and last interaction with this place. Go to Big Al’s Trading instead."
