Thanks for the info. I didn't know that once a customer makes an offer on something, the expectation is that s/he will buy it if the seller accepts. Is that well-known/well-accepted?

Runt, this last shop looked like it would accept anything. I guess it's just that this area has a lot of pawn shops, so I thought that maybe they would be willling to haggle a little more than the larger shops with more turnover.
