Pawn Shop guy missing in Schedule 1: Possible reasons and fixes
The Pawn Shop guy missing in Schedule 1 can be a major source of frustration for several players, as the Pawn Shop serves as one of the best locations to get rid of undesired items for quite a good price. You can make plenty of deals here; however, you need the store manager to sell items.
This article will briefly discuss the possible reasons why the Pawn Shop guy, Mick, goes missing in Schedule 1. We will also list a couple of potential solutions to help you fix this problem.
Possible reasons for Pawn Shop guy missing in Schedule 1
There are generally two possible reasons why the Pawn Shop guy might go missing in Schedule 1. For one, you may have heat. If the police are on your tail and there have been a lot of shootouts in the neighborhood, most NPCs — including Mick, the Pawn Shop manager — will go into hiding.
If that's not the case, he might also be missing because he's busy interacting with a different dealer. Either could lead to him being absent from his shop for a day or two, sometimes more. The manager being missing might also be tied to a bug.

Potential fixes for Pawn Shop guy missing in Schedule 1
Here are some fixes you can try out to hopefully bypass this problem in-game:
1) Evade the police
As stated earlier, if you're under a ton of police pressure, most NPCs will avoid you. This includes the dealers in the Warehouse as well as the Pawn Shop guy. One of the best ways to get them back again is to evade the police and stay on the down-low for a few days.
As the cops eventually lose interest in you, you'll find most dealers and shopkeepers opening up their businesses to you once again.
2) Restart the save game
The Pawn Shop guy missing in Schedule 1 could be due to a bug. In such cases, one of the best ways to get rid of the problem would be to save your current progress, close the game, restart it, and boot up the save file. This should automatically fix the bug, and Mick should become available at the Pawn Shop once again.
