What Rifleman1776 said goes out here in the wilds of Idaho. What I've found is that the pawn shops here know to the penny what a hunting gun is worth, but get a little confused over anything else. Thus, it's possible to find something like an early Winchester 1894 for a couple of hundred bucks at one shop and virtually the same gun for a grand at another.

I get the feeling with most of the shops around here, cash flow is the key. If they can move it quick, they'll make a good deal, but if it sits around, they may be more inclined to wait for a sucker. It's a strange business...
