Three Generations Strong

Established in 1996, EZ Pawn Corp has made it its mission to serve its customers in the best way possible. We enjoy keeping our service friendly, quick, and easy.

After enduring the hardship of World War II the late Martin Kaminsky came to NYC with a background in watch repair and a helpful hand at providing assistance to those in financial distress. After finding a suitable location he had created Gem Pawnbrokers in Brooklyn, NY in 1947.

From that point forward, David Kaminsky, Martin’s youngest son watched and learned the tools of the pawn broking trade. He diligently studied his father’s entrepreneurial prowess, observed his older siblings’ entrance into the pawn broking business, and after graduating from Northeastern University’s, decided to make his own mark in the industry. In 1996, David opened the doors to his own pawn broking business – EZ Pawn Corp.

David has been able to watch his childhood dream become a reality, running his business with the same standard of integrity and credibility as his father once did. Though the business has grown tremendously, EZ Pawn Corp still maintains its family roots. Just as Martin passed down his expertise to David, David has done the same with his children.

As one of the fastest growing pawn broking chains in New York, EZ Pawn Corp has expanded its business into 16 different locations throughout New York City. The business pride’s itself in providing outstanding customer service, and ensuring reliable, trustworthy, and honest transactions for all our customers. 

Though EZ Pawn Corp serves as a financial institution, we also strongly value the importance of community and love giving back to it! Every year, we partner up with different charities like the Kiss Cares Coat Drive, New York City AIDS Walk, and many more to help improve our community and the people in it.
