Just came to DICKS accompanying a last minute Christmas shopper (my partner). I was helping search…read morefor a very specific item/ brand/ color/ style. Unfortunately, we found the item in every size except for the specific one we needed. Then, along came Annette! I asked for her assistance and she went looking in the back and came back with extras to replenish the sizing. Except, I missed the update when my partner mentioned it was a different version of the item that we needed. Annette patiently went looking for the new item in the back. When Annette returned, she realized it was a slightly different variation than she had meant to grab. Annette left and came back every single time with a smile and offering to help us find other items. DICKS, if you're reading this, I think Annette needs a raise and/or promotion. Her willingness to go above and beyond was way more than I'm used to. Thank you Annette! DISCLAIMER: I'm not related to Annette, I've never met her before, nor did she pay me. I'm simply in NM for the first time ever. Guess I'm used to the South and Northeast

You can find what you're looking for, but you'll have to look around. This Oshman's specialized in winter fun, and it's been my go-to for ski rentals over the years. If you're planning a day trip to Santa Fe to hit the slopes, rent your board, boots and skis here, they have a solid selection of well-maintained equipment and very, very fair rates. They also won't charge you for two days if you get 'em returned early the next day.

All of the employees that I have had contact with have been professional and very friendly and accommodating. We will be back here for sure.

Be careful when picking up your gun from this store. My husband and I traveled from Santa Fe to…read moreAlbuquerque to pick up a shotgun he had ordered online and had sent here for pickup. Someone called him from a number that was very similar to the store number, but not the same. We got there a few minutes after the store opened and went to the back to the gun counter, checked in, and were helped right away. They went to look for the gun but couldn't find it, so they checked their computer and it showed that it hadn't been delivered yet, but would be there in two days. Great. We started to leave, but headed back to make sure they had my husband's correct info to contact him (because he hadn't gotten an email he was supposed to receive), and we decided to ask for the tracking number so that we could know for certain when it arrived. I looked up the tracking number and it showed the gun had been delivered two days prior--it was there somewhere. So we showed them, and they looked in the back for about fifteen minutes before someone emerged and told us they had found it on someone's desk. Whew! So then my husband filled out all his info for the background check and when that was all done we were told there was a seven day waiting period. Well, that goes against Federal law, but whatever. We came back 8 days later, when they called and said we could pick it up, and that went smoother, just took awhile to get helped. So moral of the story--check your tracking if they say they don't have your gun!

Okay, I have been visiting this Sportsman's Warehouse outlet its opening on August 28, 2004 (and I…read morehave the giveaway coffee mug to prove it!), and they generally have a good selection of guns and ammo at decent (and sometimes great - watch for the sales) prices. It's worth signing up for their emails because you can stay ahead of the specials that way - however this can be injurious to your wallet. I just visited to select, buy and pick up a new heater and I want to make a point to thank both Lance and Ray at the gun counter - they were friendly in addition to being professional and their spirit made these visits nice. Sportsman's Warehouse doesn't get five stars only because they are so brutally understaffed at the gun counter - it simply takes a long time to get anything done because there aren't enough staff there to handle the amount of business they have going on. I'm sort of surprised that management doesn't address this, as I see people getting tired of waiting and walking out of the store every single time that I visit. Management, you're leaving money in their wallets: they came to spend it, and you don't have enough staff to take it - get with the program!

It's always nice to be able to get the things you need locally especially when you have great helpful knowledgeable staff there at the store. Thanks much for being there!!

As I walked up I asked if they had cleats and the one talking could not stop for a second but another employee told me "they are back by the stairs". Didn't offer to help and just pointed. After looking around I left the store completely disgusted with their service. I was forced to return due to 2 other stores not having any in stock. I chose a pair of cleats and asked for football gloves. An employee tried to point in another direction and only agreed to show me when I asked if I could interrupt their conversation and have someone show me what gloves they had. Teen (or early 20s) employees should not be managed by another teen (or early 20s) individual. Learn what customer service is if you are going to be working retail. You are not paid to socialize!

To us it was more about not having a restroom accessible to customers but to get the rudeness as well was just that much more disappointing and upsetting. I will be sure to spread the experience.
