Do you think it's a good idea that I trade in my mp3 player @ the pawn shop for money to get food?

Question

*BEFORE YOU JUDGE: I'M ON THE LIBRARY COMPUTER*

I'm financially struggling. My player is 2 yrs. old & only functions when it wants to. I'm sick & tired of it, & I need food. I don't care if I get $20 for it! Nice trade, don't you think?

Answer 1

However, hopefully it will function long enough for you to sell it to the pawn shop.

Answer 2

do it why not food is a necessity where as mp is luxury......... i wonder if i have anything i can sell.

Answer 3

Well... if it doesn't work, I would definitely get rid of it for 20.00

Food is a necessity, so it is always more important than an ipod.

Please make sure that you are not just looking for a quick fix. Something got you into this situation, so make sure to change your financial strategy so that this doesn't have to happen again. Trust me, I know its hard, but cutting back on certain things now can help you drastically in the future.

Good luck, if you have any questions feel free to email me.

Answer 4

The Pawn Shop is going to make you turn it on and they will check it first before they make you an offer.   Then, if your MP3 player is 2 years old.... they know that, too....  they see them 20x a day...   If you paid $100.00 for your MP3 player two years ago...  it might be worth $10 - $15... maybe not.   You can try it.  But if they don't offer the 20.... go to several shops.   Someone might give you that much.  BUT it has to be working.

Answer 5

Food is much more important than an mp3 player.  The pawnshop may give you $20 if its a nice iPod, but much less if its a Wal-mart brand.  BTW if when you take it to the Pawn shop it doesn't work properly, they won't take it.
