Yes. Pawn shops in San Diego, like anywhere in California, offer collateral-based short-term loans. You bring in an item of value, they lend you a fraction of its resale price, and you can redeem the item by repaying the loan plus interest within the state-mandated loan term.
You need (1) valid government-issued photo ID — this is required by California law and federal anti-theft regulations, (2) the item in working, presentable condition, and (3) proof of ownership where applicable (receipts, titles, certificates). Most San Diego pawn shops also prefer you to be 18 or older.
