Savings World - Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario

dont bring tools here, they offer roughly 5-10% of discounted msrp, as opposed to the ~20% of full msrp generally offered at shops outside the sault. just sell on fb or wait til you gotta leave town to pawn large amounts of tools. They frequently try to quote heavy online-only sales at stores as the base price for their purposes, and they generally dont look close enough to confirm they are actually comparing the same product. failure of basic research. other reviews seem to be accurate in this regard.

also expect to be banned from all 3 pawn shops for leaving negative reviews as they are in bed with one another and really cant handle criticism. most of the positive ones are left by family and close friends of the owners, as can be gleaned from a cursary search.

for context, they have offered me 15$ for a 180$ ratchet set with breaker bars, 70$ for a 350$ impact driver set (they cited a sale at canadian tire for a different, older set and i felt it not worth arguing with em), 95$ for a 550$ membrande welder and they didnt even know what it was, list goes on and on.

all in all, if you have a small electronic or some old sports equipment, go for it, they arent the worst for that stuff, but otherwise jus dont, more worthwhile to post to facebook, its also why there isnt a whole lot besides sports equipment and small electronics (consoles, phones etc)... because they cant afford to pay a decent asking price so they dont get decent stock. perhaps thats just a product of the local economy but id still avoid it for buying or for selling

Great Place! Good service, great selection and always there to help when needed. They have a new stock in for hockey gear and ringette and always are up for questions!

Absolutely ridiculous return policy. Bought a smoke damaged item that was sold to me in a sealed plastic bag. When I got home and realized the item reeked of smoke and was causing my partner allergy issues I returned within 3 days. Even though we were told we'd have 7 days to return the item for a full refund, we were offered store credit because "there was nothing wrong with it". Smoke damage is damage. Completely disappointed, won't go back.

I have dealt with these same people since I was a younger. They have always been kind, they offer skate sharpening, and they have some great items. I have never had an issue at this location

Called twice waited the entire calling length just for them not to pick up the call

They like to make things look alot less then there value and they try to send perfectly good games away because of attitude issues in the shop. I would not recommend savings workd to anyone who wants at least close to your value. And if you want good service with no attitude then please find else where to pawn or sell your products. My rating will not change for this establishment. Also have respect for others belongings. I've brought in a speaker a few times and every time I come get it. It's dead. When it went in fully charged. And if it was off it wouldnt lose power plus they dont like to take care of discs. They will drop them back I to a case without securing the item. No good and they need to be shut down for good.

Best place in town to get your skates sharpened. Very fast and very friendly. Sharpen 3 pairs of skates soon as i walked in 2 machines goin no need to wait or come back. Awsome service

The have a small tool section but usually it is reasonably priced. Fishing items are ok but should be cheaper given their proximity to the much larger and better stocked tackle store next door
