Two days ago, I ordered a string trimmer from Ace Hardware online for pickup at the Downtown store…read morein Fort Collins. According to my order, the trimmer was on sale for on sale for $139.99. I received an order confirmation email from Ace. I called the store today to see if I could pick up the trimmer tomorrow and was told that their computer said not to fulfill the order. The rep suggested that I place the order again. I tried repeatedly to log in to Ace's website and even tried to order the trimmer as a guest, but the website was dysfunctional. So I found a similar trimmer at Lowes for $153 and ordered it there. I figured it was worth $13 to me to buy a trimmer without all the hassle I had to go through with Ace.

Ace was really wonderful about allowing my girl scouts to arrange booths with them. The manager was super easy to work with and flexible. It is great to have these local stores that will support other local opportunities! When I was there selling cookies with girl scouts i did go in and peruse a little bit after the sale was done and picked up a few items to show support back at them. They had a nice variety of items even energy bars or trail mix as I recall. That was some of the stuff i am pretty sure i picked up. The staff was super friendly! The store was clean and organized. They had a good supply of items. If i needed some items from a hardware store I would definitely support Ace! our small local businesses need us more than ever. The big boxes will survive.

We have never been to a better store than this particular location. Every time we purchased paint and a load of other items, we got great help from all of the employees we encountered. We were referred to Francisco Mendoza, a contractor affiliated with Home Depot to install our butcher block counter top and we hired him additionally to replace the windows as well. This gentleman was incredibly honest and his crew were very hardworking and accurate. They did an unbelievable job for us-even replacing an installed window that was defective after installed. Highly recommend this contractor and this particular Home Depot store.

In short: I placed an online order for two items that were both shown as being in stock. Got to the store, only one item was actually there. So I cancelled the online order and bought the item they had. Simple, right? Yes, except for one thing: getting my money back for the online order. That took over 3 months, more calls to this location and corporate Home Depot than I can count, and finally I had to file a BBB complaint against corporate HD. As soon as someone with a brain saw my complaint, they immediately refunded my money. But I can't get back the time I wasted, and I really don't appreciate the numerous times when I called this location, had someone tell me they'd look in to it and call me back quickly, and then didn't - ever. This store is poorly managed.

I get my items and proceed to check out. After I pay for my items, I look at my receipt - I am charged a "Front Range Special PIF" fee of $2.43. I ask what is a Special PIF fee, which the cashier tells me - it is part of the HOA for the shopping center. I asked where is it posted, it is not on the door of the store, it is not posted at the cash register, so you charge people without disclosing this PIF fee, which he replied yes we do? How can a company charge someone without disclosing a fee prior? Wouldn't this be credit card fraud - to bill someone even a trivial amount without first notifying them. On top of it, they do not even discuss the fee amount - it appears to be a percentage of the sale, but what percentage? That is not even disclosed. I ask for the store manager, he refuse to come speak to me, they sent the register supervisor, then an assistant manager - but the store manager was to busy to come down. I feel this is total fraud - to charge someone any amount without their knowledge. To do it underhand, in a way most people would not even see it. A line across the top of the receipt that does not even line up with ones purchases. Wonder how many THOUSANDS of dollars a year they are getting away with?
