We proceeded back to the shoe area and ran into Connor. He was so knowledgeable about shoes and very friendly and helpful. He really elevated our experience! We walked out with two pairs of shoes. Also, the young gal working the counter was very sweet. I always have loved Big 5 because they typically have knowledge people in their shoe department.

Purchase process was fast and easy without endless standing in line. Prices are very competitive - and if you need ammo, there is no better selection anywhere. They will have what you need, often when the big box stores do not. Highly recommended.

This is the most unfriendly place I've ever been other than divorce court…read more There wer 3 guys playing on their phones when I walked in. One of them said if you're here to sell or trade go to the back window. They didn't tell me that the owner was out to lunch. 20 minutes later I was told he'll be back shortly. I had about $700.00 retail value and $400 trade vale. I was offered $240 in trade and $180 if I sold. I knew I would take a beating but not that bad. The sales staff just pointed when I asked for revolvers. No words, no suggestions on overpriced guns. I would never buy from this place nor recommend it.

I had to stand in line for FORTY FREAKING MINUTES while those guys at the counter jabberred and jabberred like best buddies having a beer about the merits of this weapon or that one. I have SERIOUS back issues and it was shear freaking misery for me to do this. I told the guy who finally waited on me, "Hey, man. I know you don't run this place, but my wait to buy these primers was just NOT ACCEPTABLE. Perhaps you ought to have two lines? One for lookie lous and one for people who actually want to BUY SOMETHING?" I made a point of being calm and nice, even though my back was afire. I told him politely that they would NEVER see my face again at that counter. I'd rather pay the UPS hazard fee than stand in line for 45 minutes. That's a NO BRAINER. The guys who run that place HAVE NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS' EXPERIENCES. Not. Ever. That's why they s**k.

Ben's Sporting Goods was a great shopping experience. I was looking for my first big bore pistol…read moreand I found it here. I purchased a S&W M&P .45 Police trade in and I couldn't be happier. Ben gave me a great price and answered all my questions in a timely and informative manner. The shipping was lightening fast. When I received the gun from my FFL dealer, they were surprised by how good the condition it was in. It was everything as advertised, it was very clean, had all the paperwork, all the magazines, night sights, all the grips and it came in the S&W blue hard case. I haven't gotten the chance to take it to the range yet but I'm confident it will function fine. It's a nice experience to deal with a small but attentive shop to purchase fire arms. I will come back once my credit card cools off.

I'm not one to usually write a review about sporting stores, I usually just review places I eat at…read more I would, however, like to write a very nice experience I had today around 12:30 - 1 PM ish when I had to find a new mug/tumbler to bring to my Krav Maga classes. There was quite a selection, and I was looking for a specific design so I looked for an employee who went through a lengthy process on the hunt for the tumbler I picked out. I unfortunately do not remember his name, but he had blonde hair I believe and was fairly tall compared to me lol. I have OCD, so I analyze every detail when I buy something. Or just everything in general. After he had recommended the Yeti Rambler and a few others, I ultimately decided on that one. This was when the probably most odd adventure at Dick's began of finding the tumbler color I liked that had the least amount of markings, dings, imperfections, etc. There were quite a few of that specific tumbler color, & it took a decent amount of time to finally decide on one. After pulling out every color of that size of mug I decided on, I narrowed it down to a few, but was still struggling due to some very minor markings I saw. I had asked for his help more than a few times to see if he could spot any markings on them and he crouched onto the floor with me, looking at them and pointing out what appeared to be the best option while I rotated the tumbler to look at it with the lighting at certain angles. Not only did this employee take the time and patience to help me, but went as far as getting me a wet and dry paper towel to see if a tiny dot of a smudge would wipe off -spoiler: it did indeed come off- but I really sincerely appreciate how understanding he was about the situation and how far he went to help me. I'd imagine a majority of people on this planet would go mad trying to help someone pick a tumbler for over an hour, but there was no judgment on his part and was very kind. I also left with an awesome tumbler thanks to him, and slightly embarrassed/guilty for the probably agonizing experience he had to go through lol, but still was very kind throughout all of it. Here is the "the chosen one" I have happily brought home!

Swimmers... if you are "serious" about your craft, then East Valley Sports may have what you need…read more I'm not gonna lie, prices are higher than most major retailers, but they offer some of those specific/unique swim-related items that big brand stores typically don't carry. They do have Grab Bag bins around the store with gear that is 40-50% off the MSRP (which means you know it's high already), so that can help. As a swim coach for a high school team, they did a great job with our order, and communication about our orders was clear. It is located in the "far" east valley, but easily accessible.
