Meet the Counter
Real people, not a call center. LBC Pawn Cash 4 Gold 3% Loans* is a family business — you deal with the same faces on every visit, the people our regulars and our five-star reviewers ask for by name. This is the team behind the counter at 1107 Commonwealth Avenue.
★★★★★ Rated 4.9 stars from 1,022 Google reviews
Michael Bayles
Owner
The owner of LBC Pawn — and a familiar face from TV. Michael appeared on the show Pawn Stars, where he met Rick Harrison at the Gold & Silver Pawn counter in Las Vegas; this is the photo from the show. Back home on Commonwealth Avenue it is the same approach he has always had: fair prices, straight answers, and 3% pawn loans.
As Seen on Pawn Stars Do America
Michael was on Pawn Stars Do America — Season 2, Episode 4, “Beantown Bargains,” the Boston episode on the History Channel, aired November 15, 2023.
Danny Berhe
Shop Manager
Appraisals, loans and the counter — Danny runs the day-to-day at LBC. He has helped half of Boston through a tough month, and he does the appraisals right in front of you. Book a one-hour appointment with Danny, or just walk in.
Denise Bayles
Family Co-Owner
One half of the family team that owns LBC. Denise handles jewelry and customer care — and our five-star reviews keep asking for her by name.
Jacoby Bayles
Second-Generation Pawnbroker
Cards, collectibles and electronics are Jacoby's counter. He learned this business at the counter, growing up in the shop — second-generation pawnbroker, first person to ask about a graded card or a game console.
Teresa King
The Counter — 20 Years at LBC
Teresa has been part of the LBC counter for twenty years — one of the names our five-star reviewers praise, and one of the first faces regulars look for when they walk in.
Sion
Team Member
Sion is part of the counter team at LBC — one of the faces behind the counter at 1107 Commonwealth Avenue, here to help with appraisals, loans and questions when you walk in.


Why regulars come back to the same counter
A pawn loan or a sale is a trust decision, and trust has faces. At LBC the appraisals happen in front of you, every scale sits on the counter where you can see it, and every charge is printed on your pawn ticket before you sign. You are not handed off to a call center or a rotating cast — the person who quoted you is the person standing there when you come back. That is how a family shop earns a 4.9-star rating across 1,022 Google reviews: one fair deal at a time.
