Joel Levinson/Dynasty Jewelry and Loan

Dynasty Jewelry and Loan has been a trusted name in pawn for over 25 years, but president Ben Levinson’s family pawn history goes all the way back to 1923, when the family first opened for business in Richmond, Virginia. In 1941, Jack Friedman established the Bonded Loan Office in Columbia, South Carolina, which has been family owned and operated ever since.

After learning the business from the best pawnbroker Ben knew, the Bonded Loan Office’s owner (and Ben’s father-in-law) Sig Friedman, Dynasty Jewelry and Loan opened its doors in 1987. After 12 successful years at the original Buford Highway store, Dynasty moved to its current location on Jimmy Carter Boulevard, where it has continued to build a reputation for great customer service, great quality and most of all, great deals.

At Dynasty, they offer a variety of services and inventory, and they value the relationships with both their customers and the community. They are committed to providing the best customer service and giving back to the community through involvement in the Gwinnett County Chamber of Commerce and numerous national and local charities, as well as the Future Business Leaders Scholarship Fund. They are also proud supporters of the National Pawnbrokers Association and the Pawnbrokers Association of Georgia
