I purchased a macbook pro. While trying to set the computer up and speaking with Apple customer service it was determined that the computer was still connected to the original owners apple ID which would prevent me from ever having full ownership of the computer from a technical standpoint. Per Apple the only way to wipe it clean would be to get that persons apple id. Also if at any time that original owner decided to report the computer lost or stolen the computer could be put into a locked status and no one would be able to use at all. Value **** sold me a computer that I could never use. I purchased the extended warranty, however that warranty was null and void because the computer was not sold to me in a useable state. I spoke with ***** who was very very pleasant on the phone and she advised me to bring it back and she would have to refund the money, however when I was able to go back to the store she happen to be on vacation. I encountered a young lady name ***** or ***** im not sure which but she was eager to let me know that she was a team lead and insistant on me listening to her regurgitate the same rhetoric regarding the refund of the warranty. She advised me that had I brought the computer back within 24 hours I could get a refund of the 90 dollars. I was never advised that in the beginning and obviously the computer was not properly accepted as a **** from assuming it was the original owner. My delay in taking the computer back was a result of having two family members pass away 5 days apart. I have over the years bought several items from value **** including apple products all with the exception of one from this location and never had a problem with any of them. However this last purchase attempt has definately stopped all future transactions that include me. I am owed the money I spent to purchase the extended warranty because it wouldn't matter whether I attempted set up 1 hour later or 3 months later that computer was not totally assessable.Business Response

I pawned my wedding trio in June 2022 at my local EZ pawn. Saturday July 13th when I went to pay my item it was no longer in the system. No one could explain to me as to why so they said theyd have a manager call me back. On Monday July 15th I went down to the store and they said my item was lost and they would be contacting lost prevention to compensate me for my loss item. Today on July 18th I was called and told that I need to pay them the amount of the loan in order for them repay me for losing my item. They are also wanting to pay me less of the value of my ring. And theyre also asking me to continue to pay on the extension on my item until I can pay the full loan amount or they will drop my item. My item is lost I can not understand why I need to continue to pay for something that the store lost. Im wanting the value of my ring paid to me. Not what they think they should pay me after I pay them money for losing my time.Business Response

I have used Ezpawn in Abilene, Texas for many years now. I had to **** several belongings months ago due to personal issues and have been paying on them religiously so that I would not loose them. Occasionally there would be days where my due date came up and I call the store and they let me extend the due day so I could pay when I got paid. I have had to do this a couple times and was always told that it was no problem I have a great history with them and it is noted on my account. This morning I went to pay for my belongings and they are not on my account. The manager *** on the phone proceeded to tell me she didnt know anything about me being told I could be paid later and there was no note on my account. When I asked why I was told it was fine by her employee only for it to apparently not be she said she cant do anything about what they said and they are for sale. She then got very unprofessional and told me the only thing I could do was put them on lawaway but they could still be bought if I didnt get there in time to do that. I was trying to get a explanation on why I was told that I was fine and she couldnt give me an answer at all. All she did was continue to raise her voice at me and then eventually hung up the phone.Business Response

I had included a 14k white gold pendant with my necklace to keep the pendant and chain together, and had recently lost my father so I wasn't able to get in to pickup my chain ,and the store rep ***************** contacted back about had told that they threw the pendant away, and continued to argue with me about it being real or not, ****** at the ************ location had loaned on the item ,paired together because it has tested as white gold , as noted on previous loans, and I was told my $600 pendant was just thrown away , because obviously his ability to test the gold and jewelry wasn't correct , please contact me back as I should have got my pendant back even if l lost the loan as it wasn't Included on the loan slip and I was told it wouldn't matterBusiness Response

***************** pawned a chain with a pendant, it was explained to him the pendant was not gold. This was included this fact into the notes of the loan. The customer allowed the loan to default. The loan was dropped on 5/5/2024 and ***************** called on 5/13/2024 hoping to retrieve the pendant. We apologized for him losing his pendant and let him know we could put his chain back in **** for him if he wanted to do so. I do not feel anymore is owed to *****************, considering he was given an opportunity to keep his pendant at the time of the loan and he failed to return for the loan before the drop deadline.
