I called this place up during business hours to inquire how much a money order costs and was told…read morethey don't quote prices over the phone. That is the most ridiculous thing ever. I'm not asking for anything complicated like how much would a five year loan would be at 22%, I'm asking for a fixed price of a small, average service.

I have dealt with Lending Bear for I suppose about 10 years. I live close to Palatka, so most of my…read morebusiness has been there. I can't say enough good things about well I have been treated by the Palatka store over this time.

That camera, bag, batteries, and lenses are worth over $1,500 USED. On top of all that the two workers there were arguing about the price and how to type it in one saying $400 one saying $180. They don't know what they're doing at all. Seems like trying to scam people.
