Bill took over this shop that was run by a Father and Son team. I have gone here after being ripped off by ACE in downtown SJ since the mid 80's and you will never find a more honest place of business. When the Father and Son retired they passed me on to Bill and has given me the same excellent service as the original owners. I hold honesty as #1 in life and this place rates #1+. If your looking for a place to get a loan with a fair amount, this is the place. The original owners and Bill, have even called me, that's right called me, after I received my ten day notice mailed to me, that my due date had pasted to let me know I had to pick up my things or renew the loan. Unlike ACE that told me I had plenty of time 3 days before it was due up and when I went to pick it up they were closed of inventory and the next day they said my NIKON F# and all my equipment worth over $3500.00 that they only gave me $50.00 for was gone that morning.So if you looking for an honest deal See Bill.
