Policies & How We Work
The answers that apply no matter what you bring in.
Does Larsen's accept stolen property?
No. We do not knowingly accept or purchase stolen property. Every transaction requires valid government photo ID, every item is tagged and logged, and we refuse anything with a missing or altered serial number. South Dakota's pawnbroker chapter, SDCL 37-16, makes it a misdemeanor for a pawnbroker to refuse to show stolen goods to their rightful owner on demand — those record-keeping rules protect you as much as they protect us.
Can I change my mind if I do not like the offer at Larsen's?
Yes. There is no pressure to sell. If the offer does not feel right, take your items home — no obligation, no hard feelings.
What makes Larsen's in Mobridge different from a traveling gold buyer?
Larsen's is a permanent local Main Street business, not a temporary buyer. We test and weigh in front of you, explain how every offer is calculated, and you can accept, decline, ask questions, or take your items home — no pressure.
What should I know before visiting a South Dakota pawn shop?
Bring a valid government-issued photo ID — South Dakota requires it for every pawn loan and every sale — and anything that helps identify the item: chargers, cases, boxes, paperwork, matching pieces. Ask what the loan will cost before you sign; the amount, the fee and the due date belong on the pawn ticket. At Larsen's Jewelry & Half Interest Pawn in Mobridge the rate is 25% per 30 days, half the legal maximum, and you can text a photo to (605) 850-9455 for a rough number before you drive in. We do not accept firearms.
What is the fastest way to find out if Larsen's is interested in my item?
Text 2–4 clear photos to (605) 850-9455 for the fastest initial look. You can also call (605) 845-3759, visit What We Pawn, or stop in during business hours.
How fast does Larsen's respond to texts and messages?
We aim for same-business-day responses during store hours. After-hours messages are typically answered the next business day.
Does Larsen's in Mobridge have an online store?
Yes. Vintage and pre-owned Black Hills Gold is for sale on our website — shop vintage Black Hills Gold — with free returns within 30 days of delivery. We also list jewelry and other items through our eBay store. In-store selection may differ because inventory changes regularly.
Does Larsen's in Mobridge buy dental gold?
Yes. Dental gold is evaluated by metal content, weight, and current market conditions.
Not Sure If It Is Worth the Drive?
Text a few photos and we will tell you before you get in the truck.
