At Lou’s Jewelry & Pawn, we’ve always believed that the best measure of our success is the trust and satisfaction of our customers. That’s why we’re especially proud to announce that Lou’s Jewelry & Pawn has been recognized by BusinessRate as the Best Pawn Shop in Delaware County for 2026!
This recognition, based on Google customer reviews, is an important achievement for our entire team. More importantly, it reflects the experiences and feedback of the customers who have chosen Lou’s for their buying, selling, and pawning needs.
For more than a century, our family-owned business has been committed to providing honest service, competitive offers, and a welcoming environment where customers can feel confident doing business. Receiving this recognition is a reminder of why that commitment continues to matter.
An Award Based on Customer Reviews
BusinessRate’s 2026 recognition identifies top-performing businesses using customer feedback and publicly available review data, including Google reviews.
In its award announcement, BusinessRate recognized Lou’s Jewelry & Pawn for standing out among highly rated businesses in its category and local market.
Unlike awards based solely on an application or a business’s own promotional claims, this recognition reflects publicly available customer feedback.
That distinction is especially meaningful to us because our customers are at the center of everything we do.
Every time someone visits Lou’s to sell unwanted jewelry, secure a pawn loan, shop for a valuable collectible, or simply ask a question, we have an opportunity to demonstrate the service and professionalism that have helped our business stand the test of time.
We appreciate everyone who has taken the time to share their experience and provide feedback about our business.
More Than 100 Years of Serving Our Community
Our history dates back to 1921, when Louis Myerson established the family’s pawn business in Chester, Pennsylvania, following his earlier work in the Philadelphia pawnbroking industry.
In 1984, Lou’s expanded to our current location on 69th Street in Upper Darby. Over the decades, generations of customers have turned to our family-owned business for financial flexibility, unique merchandise, and knowledgeable assistance.
While much has changed since our earliest days, our approach to customer service remains grounded in the same principles:
- Honest, straightforward transactions: Helping customers understand their options when buying, selling, or pawning valuable items.
- Competitive offers: Evaluating merchandise carefully and working to provide customers with strong offers based on its value.
- Knowledge and experience: Drawing on decades of experience with jewelry, precious metals, collectibles, electronics, and other merchandise.
- Personal attention: Treating every customer with respect, whether they’re making a major transaction or simply exploring their options.
- Long-standing community relationships: Continuing to serve generations of families throughout Upper Darby, Delaware County, Philadelphia, and surrounding communities.
These principles have helped Lou’s remain a familiar and trusted name in the region for more than 100 years.
A Full-Service Pawn Shop Focused on Customer Needs
Whether customers need quick access to cash, want to sell items they no longer use, or are searching for something special at an attractive price, Lou’s offers several ways to help.
Selling Gold, Silver, Jewelry, and Other Valuables
Many customers visit Lou’s to turn unwanted or unused valuables into cash. We purchase a wide variety of merchandise, including gold and silver jewelry, diamonds, coins, watches, antiques, electronics, musical instruments, and power tools.
Our experienced team evaluates items and explains the available options, allowing customers to make informed decisions.
Convenient Pawn Loans
For customers who need cash but don’t want to permanently part with their valuables, pawn loans provide another option.
At Lou’s, customers can use eligible merchandise as collateral for a short-term loan without a credit check. Once the loan and applicable charges are repaid according to the agreement, customers can reclaim their items.
We believe it’s important for customers to understand how the process works and what their responsibilities are before completing a transaction.
Shopping for Jewelry, Collectibles, and Unique Merchandise
Lou’s is also a destination for shoppers looking for quality pre-owned merchandise.
From fine jewelry and watches to collectibles, electronics, musical instruments, and other interesting finds, our inventory offers opportunities to discover items that may not be available through traditional retailers.
Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or pawn, our goal is to make your experience as straightforward and convenient as possible.
