A lot of them in the UK are like that though.

> Worked in a London area Cash Generator in 2009-2010, worst job I've ever had.
> Staff have a watchlist in the back of stuff we personally want from scumbag customers.

> Sad looking old man enters the drug money giving shop, carrier bag full of Wii games that completes my watchlist
> Doesn't look like usual ilk
> My mate working on the buying counter
> "Hello user, I've come to bring these games in to sell, unfortunately my grandson died a month ago and they're just collecting dust"
> My mate, being the legend he is: "I understand Sir, unfortunately these games don't go for much so I can only offer you 50p for each one"
> "That's ok user", as he hands over the goods (for around £5 in exchange)

I'm enjoying this thread

>"hi user, i know i wont get much on these but how much will i get on these gameboy games"
>"well you're probably only looking at about £1 a piece on them"
>"oh thats way more than what i was expecting"

she got about £10 and i got a mostly complete pokemon collection from gameboy to 3ds which i later sold online for a shit load more than that kek

Yeah, but they didn't belong to a dead kid though. I don't just own the games, I own a piece of their family.

also just a heads up to anyone of you who might up using one of these servies if you ever say "you do definitely wipe these before selling them?" it means we will deffo go through your shit to find your porn and naked pictures to laugh at when you next come in

just keep quiet and we're less likely to look

It's never the customers whose nudes you want to see though.

HAH

>one of the local smackheads black teethed comes in
>now as a rule health/beauty items like sonic tooth brushes and shit we only buy new and give way less on
>puts a £120 electric toothbrush on the counter
>obviously fucking stolen
>"how much will i get on this?"
>"well we struggled to sell stuff like this so you're gonna be looking at £15 as i have to sell it as a second hand item"
>"fuck it robbing cunt, ill take it and stamp it in bits for that price"
>"or if you tried brushing with it your teeth wouldnt look as angry as you do now"
>tells me if he ever sees me again hes gonna tear my face off
>see him 3 days later in a shop doorway covered in sick gouched out from a decent hit of smack
>still hasnt brushed his teeth

>>still hasnt brushed his teeth
There's a fucking surprise.

God's work, your doing God's work user

>and somehow rihanna becomes judas
This is where I lost my sides.

yeah, ive seen so much fucking old ball sack skin on phones its untrue. its never on top end phones either its always shitty nokia lumias or blackberrys where you find it filled with old man scrotum looking like a shaved chernobyl chicken

Keep this going

>shaved chernobyl chicken

I've worked the night shift at many gas stations when I was young.

Trannies and drug addicts come out at night and everyone wants to talk about sob stories at 2 am.

What's the most fucked up sob story you heard when working there?

>woman comes to counter
>"hi can i put my ipad in"
>"yeah sure, whats your pin number"
>gives me it and i proceed to unlock it
>first screen thats up is her gallery
>40 or so pics of her big hairy unshaven 1970s fucking snatch all spread open and displayed
>she hasnt realised her mistake as im facing her
>professionalexterioractivated.exe
>"one moment whilst i just check something with one of my colleagues"
>run in to the back and begin showing every staff member i can find this epic pair of wolf shorts with a yawning cats mouth
>come back out
>process transaction
>customer leaves
>put a note on her file that just says "wolf snatch" over and over

Give me a moment just pulled up to my mom's house and the service is no good. I have a couple solid ones sure to give a good chuckle.

Same branch, different situation

> Scummy git (Let's call him Adam, that's a scummy name in this area) enters the store with crying kid of around 8/9 yrs old
> Adam places a PS2 on the buying counter
> "user, I'm selling this little prick's PlayStation because he doesn't know how to behave"
> "Ok Mr Adam, we're only offering £15 for them" (serious offer - we had hundreds in stock)
> "That'll do user, hopefully teach this one not to go into my stash"
> "Excuse me Sir?"
> "He was complaining that he was worried about my health and flushed my stash down the shitter so I'm selling his PlayStation to buy more"
> Ok, wtf
> Buy in PlayStation anyway, it's business after all
> Ring social services
> Never saw Adam or Adam Junior again

I fucking hate whenever i have to deal with the undesirables we have in the UK. They are fucking disgusting. Probably the same as dealing with degenerate hood niggers in the US.

Can you pawn a push bike?

Yeah, although around half of them were stolen and would have to be turned over to the police.

yeah but because of bike thefts where we are we need a receipt with it to prove they used money and not theft to pay for it

the number of times ive seen hand written notes for a £1000 bike and they can even spell the bikes name properly

what the fuck is a cash generator

Meh, nigger adjacent pawn shops are just garbage stores anyways..

Gotta go to normal mah and pah ones that are selling assault rifles, modded game consoles, and have porn mixed in with their thousands of dvd's they don't give a fuck about.

what the fuck is google

what the google is a fuck

Britfag here.

When life throws you CRPG style random events

*You're

I'm assuming that it was some form of low grade narcotic. This man was rather gaunt looking and missing a few teeth.

Was she hot?
I often wonder whether or not, if approached by an attractive women, I'd pay her for a blowjob
I think the fact that she approached me on the street would be a red flag for herpes or what-not
Plus, in the moment I think the fear/nervousness would petrify me

Spice will fuck your body and mind up hard.

The UK seems like a real shit hole

>son worried about health

You need a girlfriend or atleast a good romp if you think a porn stash can affect one's health

No, you are.

oh absolutely it is.

Who'd go on the internet and lie through their teeth like this?

You guys are a bunch of fucking perverts

The bits with cash generators? Absolutely.

ITS A CASH CONVERTES

Damn user at least was funny. For us.
