I bumped a plastic bottle & apologized. He did not respond to what happened & picked it up & walked away. The cashier did not believe in customer service. He was very grouchy & one of their small flyers went on the conveyer belt. He took it & asked "What's this for?" He barely spoke & could care less about me or even thanked me. There was a little more but this gives you an idea about what happened. For the discount-oriented, absolutely no discounts of any kind (military, senior citizen, first responders, etc), except for rewards members. Sorry for rambling on...

I have been to old fashioned hardware stores but nothing like this. They truly have everything. Row after row and multiple floors of stuff (some junk and some antiques). Supposed this place has never had AC - cannot imagine that in July. The topper is that when we walked in their were 7-8 old guys sitting around the main counter shooting the breeze like it was a tavern. Just killing time. Wow what a trip back to another era!

Five stars for three great guys!

Here's a suggested corporate communication to the employees of Northern Tool …read more.. Dear Employees, while we depend on our valued customers to shop with us throughout the year, they depend on us to provide an even greater level of service when disaster is imminent. Hurricane season presents an opportunity to demonstrate how much we appreciate the loyalty of our customers to purchase our products. When these loyal customers are seeking service and/or parts to storm related recovery equipment such as generators and water pumps we need to be ready to respond without delay. Online orders will be processed with a simple additional question; "is this a time critical parts order?" If so, we will schedule our distribution centers with sufficient staff to process, package and ship all in stock orders within 24 hours of order placement. It's the least we can do to help our customers when the need is critical. Thank you for caring. To Northern Tool management; pull the audio from the two "recorded" conversations I had with your CSRs just days before Hurricane Dorian threatened the Florida east coast. Paid for next day FEDEX shipping and have still not even been able to determine if order has been processed.

The lady told me I had to put my number in... I did and it didn't give it to me. She called a manager, and they said they can't give it to me until I register online. I had my ID in my hand, but that's not good enough. You have to get verified online otherwise they won't give you the discount. So disappointing and frustrating. I did not buy the items I came for. The crazy part is I was going to write up a positive review because I saw so many things that support the military... hence the photos I first took. But this is terrible service. "You have to pay for your things now without your discount but you can go online and register for it for further purchases". I used to be able to just show my ID card for the discount. Why would I want to return after this inconvenience and terrible customer service? I believe in technology and the world moving forward with progress, but sometimes common sense has to play into things and there should still be a way to show my military ID card and get my discount. What about the elderly vets who don't understand how to do things online? I guess they just don't ever get their discount. Why not set up a computer in store that people can register in person by showing their actual ID? Instead you tell them they can't get it for this purchase because they have no way to help you. Makes you wonder if they don't do this to prevent some of us from receiving it... makes more money for them. Seems awful convenient they have made it difficult for us to get it the discount.

Normally, when my husband sends me to the hardware store, I panic--I know nothing about tools or parts! This time we needed a P-trap, and I felt totally out of my element. Scott was incredibly patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He didn't just point us in a direction--he took the time to walk through everything with us and even FaceTimed with my husband to make sure we were getting exactly the right parts. That level of service is truly rare and so appreciated! Huge kudos to the hiring team at the Melbourne Home Depot on Wickham--you have a gem in Scott. Thank you for turning what is usually a stressful errand into such a positive experience!

Problem solved !!! I was really worry because I got the furniture as a final sale for $1,000 So I could not send it back! I was very relieved I was able to put the furniture together. It is nice when people help you and don't let you walk out of the store without some kind of a solution. (I was not offer this two items at the other hardware stores I visited. )

Radio Shacks hardly exist now and I needed them for electrical connectors such as the 3M connectors. I could get a couple at a time. I get decent or even large quantities of such connectors here. They have a great rack of them. One year I bought a used car. When I got home I found the previous owner had lost the battery hold-down bracket. A pot hole or a speed bump could knock around. I went to this Ace and got a 3 foot wire tie and secured it. I love their discount bins they have from time to time! A significant part of their staff such as a couple clerks up front have been retained for years. They know me on sight. Yesterday I determined that to complete a project I will have to reach into a blind area to tighten bolts. Only Allen head will be convenient. I'm about to bicycle out there and get them. I have to lock my bike to the propane enclosure at the back. Otherwise I'd give them 5 stars.
