Why Carr Hardware Lenox Has Lost My Trust and Business…read more I bought 2 sodastream refills at the Lenox store. The total came out to $47.98 or $23.99 each including tax. The same refill online through sodastream is $16.99 with free shipping for purchases of $65 or more ($18.05 a bottle including tax). Meanwhile, at this very moment in the heart of SF, you can purchase the same refill at my former hardware store Cliff's Variety for $18.46 including tax. Why was I being charged nearly 6 dollars more per refill by Carr Hardware? I was shocked when I looked at my receipt when I got home. What gives? I called the store and questioned the manager, Patty and explained the price discrepancies I had been finding. She was dismissive at first citing "price increases" as her justification. I told her I would complain about my experience online and then she said "corporate sets the prices and she would check and get back to me." I have yet to receive a return call. It's upsetting that post-covid so many businesses, local independents and large corporations alike, are willing to gouge their customers and their community. After some online research, my experience with Carr Hardware's refill pricing is comparable to complaints I had read about online by Walmart customers. I will be reporting my experience to the Better Business Bureau and caution you to be vigilant at the checkout counter if you shop at Carr Hardware. They've lost my trust and my business. UPDATE: Refills are roughly $18 at Staples Pittsfield

I called ahead and they had everything I needed. I called back and asked to add soma few things to my order. The woman on the phone rudely said, "it's already packed." I was so stunned that I just hung up. Why not ask if I would like to start a second order? When walked in and told the woman behind the counter that I had an order, it immediately became clear from her voice that it was The same woman I spoke with on the phone. But she acted like I was someone new to her. I told her I had an order, and she acted as if it was the most preposterous thing anyone has ever said. She screwed her face up and said, lwhat are you talking about, for what?" I won't type out the whole in exchange, but she happily walked me out pointed at a few things and said, "they're right here! Where it says curbside pick up!" Meanwhile, my order was blocking the sign that said curbside pick up. She just really could've been a nicer human being. I will look for a different hardware store to shop where I'm not treated like trash. And I'm not even dressed as poorly as I usually am, ha ha.

The manager gets my receipt as I explain that it charged me twice and showed multiple times on my banking app that I was charged twice. Claims he only sees one transaction declined and one transaction approved. Nothing he can do for me and it's doesn't show in their system. They can't just accept their stores error with a paying customer and return a simple 20 dollars. Not even about the money anymore, simply business etiquette.

I came in to drop off my snowboard for repair and after looking it over the next day, they told me the honest truth that it was a bit too of a complex repair for them to trust that it was stick long term. They suggested for the price it would cost to make it perfect, given the year of the board (2017), I'd be better off getting a new board and pocketing the difference. I appreciated how up front they were and headed their advice! I'll be running the board through it's final paces this season and getting a new one come spring. Even beyond repairs, this shop has it all. From kayaks to climbing gear, skis to paddle boards, they've got everything you need to enjoy the outdoors for all four seasons.

I had Hunter Douglas blinds installed a few years ago from Caligari's. I was impressed with the…read moresales person who helped me pick out the blind that fit my particular needs. When the blinds arrive Ryan came to install them and he couldn't have been more friendly and professional. The blinds look gorgeous! My grandchildren were visiting this pasted weekend and, unfortunately, broke one of the blinds. I call Caligari's thinking I would have to purchase a new blind but they informed me that it might be able to be repaired. I scheduled a service call and it was Ryan who came again; I was so glad. He was able to fix the blind right away! For just the cost of a service call the blind is working again! He let me know that he isn't always able to fix blinds on site sometime they need to be sent out for repair, but if he can fix them, he does. So nice! The blinds are pricy but, in my option, worth every penny. Beth P.

What was worse, he refused to put on a mask, claiming he had asthma and couldn't breathe in one. Only when I phoned the store, did he put one on and even then he was rude about it. I spoke to someone at the store who said that only Kaitlyn could deal with this and they would contact her right away. But no one called me back. Atrocious customer service, and you're paying top dollar for the carpeting to boot.
