Ho Ho Ho...This is Santa Claus wishing you a happy holiday season
from the freezing temperatures of the North Pole. Even from up here I
know the pinch that everyone is feeling in their wallets. Heck, I’m on a
tight budget myself trying to feed my hearty band of reindeer that will
guide my sleigh during the Christmas delivery rush. But don’t fret. My
friends at Oaks Pawn and Jewelry down in sunny Gainesville can fulfill
all your gift needs. Not only do they have a wide selection to choose
from, the astonishing prices will surely bring a smile to your face.
Designer jewelry and a glittering showroom are not what you expect
from a pawn shop. Traditionally, pawn shops are known for their grubby
appearance and questionable inventory. Not so at Oaks Pawn & Jewelry
where a stellar reputation for quality items such as Rolex, Cartier and
Tiffany can be found in a New York style store right here in our
community.
Customers have been coming to this store for years and have come to
trust owner, Sal Fluriach’s business practice of only selling the best for
less. Sal has been in the business for over 30 years. In 1998 he opened
Oaks Pawn & Jewelry and in 2005 hired Clint Asbell to manage the
growing business and operations. Clint has such passion for the jewelry
and pawn business, that he went out and bought a Hummer, then had it
customized with huge decals advertising Oaks Pawn & Jewelry! Parked
outside the store it is clearly visible on Newberry Road. Clint has a
great relationship with his loyal clientele, always listening to their needs
and when he comes across an item that is in perfect shape and has come
in at an unbeatable price he will quickly call the client and pass the great
opportunity along.
“With today’s struggling economy, why pay more when you can come
to Oaks Pawn and Jewelry and pay 30-60% less on average”, says
Clint as he pulls out a set of 2ctw diamond solitaire earrings that can
cost on average $5,500-$6,500 at most retail stores but at Oaks Pawn
& Jewelry those same earrings can be purchased at an amazing price of
around $3,500!
If you feel hesitant to purchase jewelry from a pawn shop you should
know that not only does Clint Asbell, the General Manager of Oaks
Pawn & Jewelry, bring a wealth of experience to the business but he
also ensures that every piece of jewelry is of the highest quality and
authenticity. A certified jeweler inspects each piece, may it be new or
used, before it reaches the display case.
Customers are highly encouraged to browse the display cases and
compare retail prices to those at Oaks Pawn & Jewelry. The friendly
and knowledgeable staff is the total opposite of “high pressure”. They
know you will be back for that unbelievable deal on the
18 karat gold and stainless steel Rolex Submariner watch,
that would cost approximately $9,050 retail, but at Oaks
Pawn & Jewelry that same watch would cost between
$4,000 and $6,000 depending on its model and year.
The exciting thing about Oaks Pawn & Jewelry is that
you never know what they will have next and a majority
of the time they have unique items like a Pave diamond
dolphin ring with sapphire eyes or a fabulous diamond
encrusted bangle bracelet.
If jewelry isn’t your thing, the store has a wide selection of musical
instruments, home theater accessories and other goodies. For
the musician in someone, there is an
impressive stock of guitars, drum sets
and speakers. The home theater
aficionado can browse the store and
find video cameras, DVD players,
DVD’s, high quality flat screen
televisions and stereos. You can
uncover a diverse range of items at
the store from outdoor favorites like
rims and tires, chain saws and ATVs,
to satisfying your gaming needs with the Xbox 360 or the Nintendo
Wii Game System….you may even find an outstanding deal
on a car or boat!
See something in the store that you would like but can’t afford?
No problem, during the holiday season people are often in a crunch
for money. Oaks Pawn and Jewelry is able to provide you with a
loan at competitive rates. “No loans are too small and no loans
are too big,” says Clint.
