I had a friend who told me about checking into Aarons for stuff i needed for my apartment. I was greeted by a great crew when i came into the store, and the sales manger Steve, was more than willing to sit with me and talk about all the options i had for purchasing items with them. They explained their 120 days same as cash option, and let me know that if i cannot pay off in that time frame i was going to pay a lot more for the merchandise, over the length of the lease if i just made the base monthly payment. He was very upfront about the procedures for leasing with them, and explained everything in the lease agreement till i was satisfied that i understood everything that i was signing.
We laughed about how the reviews i read were saying the company over charges for merchandise. They are a bit more expensive, but Best Buy wont give you a loaner TV if yours goes out. I would rather pay a little extra and have service options, than buy something outright from a company and have to do everything myself if something does break.
I read over the lease agreement they had me sign and everything is in there in black and white, no hidden fees. Im not sure why people cant understand that when you make a monthly payment on something, you arent putting all of the money on principle..
All in all, Im glad i was able to do business with Steve and his crew. They let me wander around the store and promo soundbars and TVs without hovering over me making me feel like i was pressured into a purchase.
Im looking forward to my next purchase with them, since i felt welcome there, not like i was "just another customer". read more
