As a small business owner we have to watch every penny that comes in and goes out so needless to say our latest and quite frankly LAST experience with this store was frustrating.
We bought a spindle for a Wright stander from them yesterday for almost $400.00. Later in the day one of our workers found a spare one on the shelf so I went back to return it. Towards the end of the return he told me they would be charging me a 20% "restocking fee". Almost $80 of my money would go towards someone picking up the box and walking it 10 feet back to the shelf.
We are in line for a half a dozen new weed eaters and earlier in the conversation I had asked if they had one I could try on site to see if I liked it. He told me I would have to purchase it to try it. Now I'm understanding why. If I got them back to the shop and we didn't like them they would get to charge me a 20% "restocking" fee for all of them I bought.
Moral of the story is to be very careful what you buy there. You will not get all your money back.
We had 2 backpack blowers stolen a month ago. We are also in line to buy 2 new Wright standers in the next couple weeks. Almost $27,000 of my money will now go to Blue Valley Tractor and when I told the guy that he shrugged his shoulders and said, "have a nice day".
I have given this place numerous chances since Reynolds Lawn and Leisure closed their doors. This was the last one.
In response to yours Dan:
I could have just as easily gone to the Wright website, looked up the part number on their extensive database and ordered online. In fact most manufacturers have their part numbers online. I didnt. I came to your store and gave you money.
Clearly i didnt install it either because the box was brought in sealed until your worker opened to inspect it.
As far as the trimmer goes why not keep an extra one on hand so companies can give them a test run before buying it? Ill tell you why. So you can get your 20% restocking fee if they get home and finally start it and don't like it.
You have cameras. Pull up the audio and listen to it. I was not rude at all. I asked him politely twice to reconsider the fee. He didnt say a word either time. Just pointed at the receipt where it says it way down in the corner. It was then i told him i had my sheffield number on my desk and id be taking my business elsewhere. As i was walking out i got a snarky "have a nice day". Youre more than welcome to call Mark and Steve and ask them how many times i was rude to them or anyone who worked at Reynolds in 20 years and they will tell you not once.
The one common denominator in all your responses to online reviews that arent good are to blame the customer and then accuse them of being rude. Maybe a little self reflection is in order. read more
