I remember going here when I was about 16 to get fully decked out for the new cricket season, and I…read moreremember that they had everything I needed in terms of cricketing equipment. A selection of bats (from low end to high end), batting pads in all shapes, sizes and weights, and a similarly wide variety of gloves and the now essential helmets. I also remember that they were willing to advise me in terms of exactly what I was looking for and how much I was willing to pay, and I clearly remember that they knocked 10% off the total price because I told them which team I played for. So I went back in last week, and gladly, nothing seems to have changed. I'll remember this place if I ever take up cricket again.

This is a proper sports shop, not like the sport shops in town that just stock the latest fashion…read moreitems. This is what a sports shop should be. It stocks a fantastic selection of cricket equipment all year round, along with all other sports equipment. One of the major pulls of this shop is that PC Sports is the official outlet for all the local schools where you can purchase all school uniforms and accessories. A great shop on Yeadon High Street, with excellent, friendly and knowlegable staff. Well worth a stop by.

Now I'm no rugby player, (I know it's hard to believe, the beef cake that I am) but if I was I…read morewould probably go to Bulldog Sports Co for my rugby shirts. They have a wide range of sports wear brands and will also customise any team or corporate wear for your needs. They provide services for the likes of BBC, Newcastle Falcons and The Leeds Rhinos. I have heard that The Leeds Rhinos are what some would call 'metrosexual' and like to look good, so I'm sure this place does a good job. The staff are typical macho sport fans but are nice as pie...(mm..pie) and as well as making and selling sportswear they also do trophies.

Bought some walking boots from the Headrow store on Sat 16th June and when I went to wear them last…read moreweek the hook that the laces go around 'pinged' off. The Mr took them back to that store and had a real carry on trying to get a refund as they couldn't change for the same size. (I'm not about to type up his rant as it already nearly made my ears bleed!) I went into the Crown Point store today and i think it must be a Employee requirement to have qualifications in pure ignorance! When I eventually found and assistant (as the staff stood around doing nothing behind the counter can't possibly venture outside of the till point to help you!!), he was a bit slow in actually picking up the train of thought that I wanted to check for 3 different trainers in the same size- I wouldn't think this complicated however he started to walk off (I hoped to get what I'd asked for) but then came back and said 'sorry, I can only check for 2. Erm- I'm asking about 3 pairs, but what you're telling me is that you will got check for 2 pairs and then come back, give me them and then go for the other pair- absolutely absurd! Not only did he then head off to get the 2 he'd 'allowed' he brought me a 4 & 5 in one pair and nothing of the other. I abandoned my quest and went to stand in line to pay for the walking boot replacement. The queue for the amount of staff available was nonsense! They are the slowest till merchants I've ever seen! You are asked at the till if you want to 'buy' a horrific 'carrier' bag as they don't carry the stock of bags in to accommodate the 'shoe box size'- strange, I though as a sport shop selling sport shoes they would have the correct bags at least. Must be such a daft request!!!! Anyway, I thought I was saving myself some money going in here but all I have managed to do is increased my blood pressure and wind myself up. Avoid at all costs, cheap prices at the sacrifice of your sanity and even an acceptable level of customer service!!!!!!!

I bought some trainers from the Harrogate store. When I got them home they didn't fit as well as I…read morethought. I took them back the next day less than 24 hours later only to be told they don't do cash refunds, I was astonished, they would not give me my money back under any circumstances. I tried to call the store before I went only there was no answered. I called customer services no answer, so I sent an email and got a standard letter response that didn't answer my question. So now I have sent a letter of complaints to the head office. I ask my self is this the right way to treat a customer who buys in good faith. Never again. DON'T DO IT.
