After a quick search for a local vendor for a tractor implement that we have, I found Dave's Tractor and we gave them a call. We were prepared with item numbers and such for what we needed and received a call back a short while later with a quote and availability. They were willing to remove the additional parts from the implement they had in stock to sell us and order again for themselves. Not only this, they took a credit card over the phone and since they weren't going to be at the shop, Dave was nice enough to meet up with me elsewhere to pick up the teeth. Easy peasy! We won't hesitate to contact them again if the need arises and I highly recommend giving them a call for tractor/implement needs!

It was returned 29 days later with the same, unfixed problem - my mower was returned to CT. My yard grass is overgrown, I am out $500, and I am going to have to hire someone to cut my grass because there's no telling how much longer I am going to have to wait to have my "top of the line" mower fixed. W.E. Deming, "Father of Quality Management" said that 94% of all company problems are caused by management. It appears that CT management needs some additional training. Consumer Beware.

I own a couple businesses, and I know good service when I experience it. The mechanics and sales staff were top notch.

Money well spent. 10/10 would recommend Craig Taylor all day every day.

Of all the gun shops I visited in Anchorage, Gun Runners is the one most likely to get my business…read more 1. The owner, Roy, didnt' condescend to me because I'm a woman. 2. Since many of the guns they sell are used and on consignment, they have some of the best prices in town. Roy took the time to answer my questions, explain some things to me and didn't try to sell me girlie pink crap. I was also amazed at how many guns fit in this tiny, TINY store. There's so much stuff crammed in the store, you basically have to tell them what you're looking for or you'll never find it. They have a TON of rifles. I mean a TON. Like a lot of gun shops in town, they also accept trades, which is awesome And best of all, THEY HAVE AMMOI IN STOCK. I repeat, they have ammo in stock. Nobody in town has ammo these days, but Gun Runners does. Woooohooo! Finally, I like Gun Runners because it's LOCALLY owned and operated and very Alaskan-y.

The owner showed us one of your .45 .70 gun with the wooden stock. I asked how much he said $2500 and I said even if she wanted to get it for our Anniversary. He said he had one a good customer had put half down on, but decided he needed the money to pay payroll. So he said he would apply the deposit so he would only charge my wife $1250! He took my measurements and toured the shop gave me a hat and t-shirt and then drove us to our hotel. When I got my finished gun I took it to the Ranch in Texas where we hunt. 6 of us fired one sho each whoever shot out of a 4 inch center had to buy lunch 3 adults and 3 teens 70 yards, no one missed!

I opened the case and explained what I needed, and before I had time to even browse the counter, they had found all the parts and reassembled everything ready to go. They originally quoted me 100 bucks (which seemed fair), but then dropped it to 40$ in the end. The guys working were honest and told me it was easy to do and they happened to find everything they needed. I great service. i highly recommend.

It's not a huge store so it's easy to maneuver around and it wasn't very busy so it was a quick in and out. The inventory seems to be pretty decent. They were out of food safe 5-gallon buckets on the shelf, but they had extras in storage and they got me one of those. The staff was helpful, but not friendly. They had no interest in small talk (or really any talk at all). I was asked if I had a rewards program or something else. I said I didn't. And that was the end of that conversation. They didn't ask if I wanted to sign up or get more information. There are a couple other stores in town. I'll probably try them out before hitting up this place again. Just to see what they're like.

From our previous poor visit, the guy who helped us never made sure our information was updated in the computer, so we had to jump through hoops again. This time, we were told it was updated while we were there (mind you, the last guy said he couldn't). I have to say, they show zero interest in their customers and what they're doing, looking for, projects or otherwise. Just crotchety guys with crap for customer service skills. I'd think guys that like tools would enjoy working in a hardware store but it seems as though that's not the case. My husband is an incredibly cordial guy, likes to give accolades and chit-chat but for the most part, they just won't have it there. I find myself saying 'let's go, they don't care.' Kind of a bummer, especially for a local company... but then again, it boils down to where else are you going to go? Our options are limited in this great state and they just don't seem like they need to try. Guess that's why Amazon is thriving...
