Mafia Wars New Pawn Shop "Trader Goh's" & Tutorial Video



Here we go, the Pawn shop to get rid of unwanted loot you have is starting to roll out to everyone over the next few days. Some people have it already so you will be getting it soon. 


It called "Trader Goh's" but it isn't really a place to trade but more like a store unfortunately. You can trade your stuff but then to get another item not only do you have to give them the items but they also want you to pay reward points with the trade. So it is more like you are buying the item.


This is not what was promised to us and I do hope they change this very fast or they will find out very fast that this was a failed feature as most knowledgeable players wont use it. But it is gonna be in the marketplace so I guess we should of figured this would cost us. 


Wanna see what Mafia Wars put out on it well I reprinted it below but you can also visit it by clicking here.

A new way to trade and earn items has finally arrived! Trader Goh's Pawn Shop is the latest addition to the marketplace and allows users to trade in unwanted inventory for more useful items. The time is now to review your inventory and visit Trader Goh and see what his Pawn Shop has to offer!

The Trader Goh Pawn Shop can be located in the Marketplace. Upon first entry be sure to allow Trader Goh to walk you through at least one trade to gain an understanding of how this feature works. The '?' icon in the upper right hand corner can always be selected for additional instructions on how the pawnshop functions.

Pawnshop Items can be purchased from Trader Goh with a combination of reward points and different amounts of items (common, uncommon, rare, and superior) or directly with reward points. Trader Goh has a strict policy so be sure to review the items being traded away before selecting 'Make the Trade.' A trade transaction can always be canceled by selecting 'X' in the upper right hand of the trade window.

Here is an outline of the requirements for an example trade:

  5. Zynga, you SUCK!!! I am getting ready to give up MW since you want rp for everthing you do and nothing is being improved to make it better for players, just Zynga. You need to find a better way to accept and return gifts, I am sorry, that would be good for the players, not Zynga, shame on me.

  7. Great innovation zynga!!!
    With that crap you lost an other MW player. Some of the Top-Mafia Players already left your formally thrilling game they turned into BS with all changes made.
    I can only hope many will follow us. Zynga ignores their customers, but only the intelligent will ignore Zynga ;)
    Wish you all the best and much tolerance if you decide to stay with this infantile nonsense:*

  12. Many people feel a sentimental attachment to a piece of jewelry. They may want to keep it as an investment or bequeath it to their children. A pawn loan is a quick and easy alternative to selling. pawn my watch
