My wife went with Klarna, when we drove 45 min to the store to pick up, the manager came to release the gun to us but they said "You can't purchase guns with Klarna" no where is this listed on the site. I questioned that and she snapped back with"Not with that attitude" She almost got cussed out, All I did was question the denial of Klarna. Academy if you have snappy managers like this then you need to look into it. My wife didn't purchase the gun even after being told she could finance thru Sezzle. We left Academy and drove over 95 to Bass Pro shops and purchased the gun there. Looks like from the past reviews this store sucks!

I really just wanted to grab today versus ordering and paying shipping on when I walked in the selection that was there was very well placed and easy to see they had another section in the back, but the two employees two older women were very, not helpful, which is weird because this entire store is based off of customer service when I asked if they possibly had it in the back, she just kind of shrugged her shoulders and went back to what she was doing if you want help just go to Dick's Sporting Goods or order it online I wouldn't waste your time coming here.

I was surprised at the limited amount of fins available, the poor selection of board socks, and no acceptable wet/dry bags for surf gear.... but I purchased a board in February and already back buying another due to your fantastic staff and customer service best regards and big up: Dakota (a king amongst salesmen)

Incredibly poor service and customer support staff. Here's the problem with "running stores" if you're already a runner, they'll love you and you'll love them. But if you're TRYING to get into shape then these staff members will look down their noses at you, ignore you or count ceiling tiles...ANYTHING they can do to ensure they DON'T have to come assist you. To call them snobs is probably too soft a term, but all I am sure yelp will allow. So we'll leave it at that. Unfortunate that these people need to look down their noses at others to make themselves feel better, but to be sure if they could have actually BEEN on a sports team, they wouldn't have had to become runners. Good riddance, I'll get my shoes from zappos. read more

you're better off going to Walmart than to trust the service of untrained teenagers, that' one would expect from a speciality store.

Jose and staff are knowledgeable about the brands they stock and the benefits of each shoe. They made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. I came in looking for just one pair of shoes and left with 5 pairs of shoes! They didn't have the shoe that I was looking for and Jose was able to order them for me. Also if your Birkenstock's need an extra hole added Jose is able to adjust them to fit your foot comfortably! I definitely recommend Scrambled Soles for good quality shoes and great service.

A few days ago, I saw a pair of white pants I liked in the window display and decided to stop in. When I asked if they had the pants in a "Large" size, the older woman working at the time (who may be the owner) looked at me and my body and very sharply (and rudely) said that this store is a boutique. She explained that if their store carried sizes larger than a size 10, it would no longer be considered a boutique. If the goal of this store is to leave potential customers feeling humiliated and shamed for their bodies, then I'd say they're doing a great job. Please shop at any of the other, actually inclusive, boutiques in Cocoa Village - in the case of our little town, one bad apple does not actually spoil the bunch. (And a quick side note: when my daughter later left a review on my behalf, it was removed for not being a "firsthand experience." Well, here I am, the woman who went into the store in the first place, leaving my review of my firsthand experience.)

We have spent a lot of money here in the past and always enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately this time was different. Signs are posted stating to ask for assistance if you see an item on display you want to try on. I did see a dress and I asked. I was told the dress was not for sale and she wouldn't take it off display. I was confused because that's sounds ridiculous. The dress was even outside of the store on display so clearly for sale. No sign saying it wasn't. She then went on to say it was damaged and undesirable which I thought also strange because why would you have it on display. Needless to say she was rude and I will NEVER bring anyone or refer them to this store. I love supporting local business but not this one.
