Little India - Pawnshops


Spotted different pawnshops in Little India. Some are more recently set up and more modern in designs while there's some that are still the traditional designed pawnshops.

If spotted in a pawnshop during the early days, one might be embarrassed cause it was a sign of being poor but nowadays with the price of gold going up, chances are people are investing in gold and buying and selling gold in pawnshops.

Below photo is a traditional and old pawnshop.
