UrBC, Yekaterinburg, July 2, 2015. Yekaterinburg pawnshops have been getting 10% to 30% more customers over the last few months, the market players informed UrBC.
‘The current economic crisis caused the customer traffic to go up by 30%. People need money especially badly right now. Most often, they come when their wages haven’t been paid out to them in time or when their advance payments come to an end. These clients tend to pawn their gold jewellery, laptops, and mobile phones. Apple seems to be a particularly common brand lately: Apple products are not cheap, so some good money can be had for it,’ Zolotoy Slon, a pawnshop, explains.
Another pawnshop reports their customer traffic rose less considerably.
‘We have been getting 10% to 15% more customers lately, with people bringing in more or less the same things as before. Just like in the previous months and years, they pawn absolutely everything they can,’ Nadezhniy says.
