I pronounced it all wrong and he politely corrected me and said it's pronounced Malachi. We laughed because he stated I wasn't the only one that mis pronounced his name. All in all he was amazing and has a bright future ahead of him! Thanks for the great customer service!

Customer service doesnt exist here. Jaslene was our cashier…read more The transaction experience was awful. My husband had a little sticker shock at the register for the 26 lb weight we were buying. He took a moment because he thought it was a little less online. When he asked "and that's the total with tax?". Normally you hear back a confirmation but instead she said no with tax it's $73.62. Mind you we were at the register to pay not for a price check. My husband was looking at his phone and she blurts out "you want it or not?". We told her yes but I had to explain to her he is just taking a moment to look up the price. Normally someone at the register gives the total price when purchasing not sub total. I walked away once my husband got the receipt and was already a good ways away from the register and she yells out "Good Bye!" In the most patronizing tone. It was the cherry on top for this review. We are all human and can do better but this right here is why online shopping and self check out is putting cashiers out of jobs. Maybe she should remember that the next time she wants to be unjustifiably rude and try to make people feel less than with "you want it or not?". So if you want your intentions to be buy something rudely questioned in front of other guests than this is the place and Jaslene is your go to.

Good snacks and a chill vibe.

The El Segundo location of Big 5 Sporting Goods seemed to be more of a miss than hit in this visit…read more Though I arrived with almost an hour still left before closing time, the staff seemed to maybe want to already be on their way out. Several loudspeaker announcements of, "We will be closing soon," rang out, even with 45 mins left available. Many of the racks were out of order and rather disheveled. I was also saddened to find that many items were sold out in needed sizes, with only larger sized items still available. One item that I needed was a small wrist brace, but only one was available in that size with the others available in Large. I did find that the brace was good for the value, but was still put off by the state of the store. Also, the staff was chatting around the floor a lot, leaving me waiting at the register for several moments without assistance. Hopefully next time will be better.

All of the sales associates are highly knowledgeable and seem to enjoy working here. We tend to be Hoka customers, but I see them selling all different shoes depending on your needs. If they do not have the specific shoe in stock, they check with the other store in the area and/or order them for you. If they place an order for you it usually takes about five days. There is plenty of parking in the front or back lot. Village Runner is a hidden jewel of Redondo Beach for anyone with feet. This is definitely a five star shoe store!

This is a specific Bullpen Sports HQ review of their Saturday 04-05-25 Bullpen Card Show... and…read morethat coincided with National Hockey Card Day (they gave away free Upper Deck NHL hockey cards and packs just for attending) So, it was a card convention event! FREE Admission inside of the retail store. Spacious with probably maybe around 30-50 dealer tables. What I praised to one of the staff of this store about, as well at chatting with some of the sellers at Bullpen is that it felt like a lot of the "dealers" were not the typical ones of today's show-off "let's go!" era who sell cards for a living or hustle by bringing overpriced cards like a museum that have arrogant attitudes wanting to flex and show off their cards but with price-tags nobody's paying. This show felt like most of the "dealers" were simply hobby collectors looking to resell and priced their merchandise to sell and move. They were family friendly to kids and appreciative to customers with upbeat attitude. We bought some low end Pokemon cards and when curious to see the online eBay comps which is generally cheaper, I found the cards we purchased were comparably equal or lower (factoring online shopping typically necessitates paying shipping and sales tax) and we got to browse and take home cards immediately. We've been to shows like the Burbank Card Show and left it deflated because there was nothing to buy in terms of good opportunities. Bullpen Sports HQ is quite the opposite! They are a retail LCS (local card store/shop) and opened their doors to theoretically competitor sellers in camaraderie to benefit the hobby and collectors for a card show convention type event. All of the dealers seemed to have a nice variety of sports cards and also Pokemon cards. The pricing was very fair with everyone we saw and there wasn't any mega-booths pushing overpriced cards or promoting their rips or breaks. This felt like a local show from the 1980's type vibe. The sellers were easy to talk to and very gracious to customers whether browsing and not buying, picking up $1 caliber cards or negotiating discount offers for deals. I highly recommend this for everyone and especially kids and their parents. Several dealers gave my young 8 year old son free gifts too! I believe the staff said they try to hold these card shows several times a year, maybe every 6 weeks or spread after every 2 months and the rates for dealer tables seem very fair for collectors to come set up and sell. With all that being said, this was an amazing event that exceeded expectations. Parking was easy, especially if you're willing to walk a few short minutes using free parking on the neighborhood streets.
