Aztec Palace Jewelry and Loan

San Diego's pawn shop category runs 44 listings, which is enough that scrolling straight through isn't the fastest way to find one near you. Zip code 92101 has four, and 92104, 92115, and 92173 each have three, so if you're downtown or in one of those pockets you'll have a few options within a short drive rather than one across town. Most entries include a phone number, with 43 of the 44 listings showing one, and 37 list a website, so you can usually check hours or call ahead before you go.

None of these listings show a Sponsored tag, since paid placement for this category hasn't been switched on in San Diego, so what you see is the directory's plain default order, not a ranking of who's better. If you run one of these shops and notice your website field is missing or your number's outdated, you can claim the listing and fix it yourself, which matters most in the thinner zips like 92109 or 92111 where only two options currently show up. Call two or three before making a trip, especially if you're comparing offers on a specific item.
