I asked for help and she was more than helpful. Going above and beyond. I just kept seeing her going up and down all over the store. You could just see how dedicated she was to finding it that. I'm honestly, I'm happy that DICK'S sporting goods, has employees that care enough to go above and beyond for the customer! Awesome work! We are super happy with the jersey

I had to leave a review for these two young men , Izzy and Benjamin, who provide the best customer…read moreservice I have received in a very long time. They were so patient with my husband and I. We were not sure what shoes we wanted or what would work best for us, but they were very knowledgeable about shoes for different types of foot issues ( high arches, flat feet, etc.). We tried on quite a few pairs of shoes and never once did they seem annoyed although they were very busy assisting other customers as well. We were both fitted with perfect shoes and left very happy customers.

Update customer service (customer satisfaction/return policy)!…read more They don't work with you to satisfy their customers, even at corporate higher level management. Although they say there is no time limit for returns, there certainly is (according to corporate mgmt). However, no where in their pamphlet, store, or receipt does it say in writing that you cannot return anything (even new with receipt) once the item is purged from their system (who knows when that is) or it has been several years old. One representative told me that they would not be able to resell old (but unused) items due to parts like shoe glue in my case (Nike shoes). But that goes with anything they sell so that's a poor answer. So buyer beware! Not just this store. All Big 5 locations have the same "lame" misleading return policy under corporate executives. They need to update their policy and customer service big time. And they need to put all the disclaimers etc. on paper especially the receipts. It doesn't help even if you are a loyal customer for several years either.

She asked that I spend 50 as she was going to cover the cost for the student. I got to the Big 5 and asked for help as I had no idea what to buy..after hearing my story about the student, the young manager helped me find a pair close to 50...it was 65$. I called and asked...can it be 65? Yes, she said, so I hurried to pay to hurry to get the cleats to the student so he can play! As I am paying, the young manager comes to the register and says "give her my discount." I paid 53$ OUT THE DOOR for the cleats.. What an act of kindness!! What a generous, wise young manager..

From their amazing selection of bats to the wide variety of pants and shirts -- and an absolutely outstanding selection of gloves -- they truly have it all. We brought in our daughter's catcher's mitt, which needed quite a bit of work to be game-ready, and they had it broken in and ready to go in just two weeks. Their prices are excellent, their commitment to the community is unmatched, and the customer service is second to none. If you're looking for a one-stop shop for all your softball needs, this is it.

You looking for that clean looking glove that one short stop had on the other team? Charlie Rose has it! You looking for a glove no one has seen before? Charlie Rose has it!! Lookin for the new bat you can't find? Charlie Rose has it!!!!!! Chances are if you know baseball, you already know about Charlie Rose. If you like baseball and didn't know about it, well.... You're welcome for changing your life!

I was kicked of this store for "looking homeless" and was accused of stealing. When I walked in I…read morewas on the phone with my girlfriend and was talking to her about the stuff in the store. The manager followed me around the entire time and stood within 5 feet of me at all times repeatedly asking me questions regarding what I was looking for. I talked about the exact gear that I needed and he immediately referred me to another store without even looking to see if I he had it. He interrupted my phone call and told me I "looked homeless" and that I needed to get out and I can pay for the things that I had in my hand, a few hooks and weights. At that point I was disgusted with his behavior and no longer wanted to do business there. I asked for a real reason why he was doing that and he repeated that I looked homeless and that he was calling the police. There was nothing I could do or say to convince so I decided to leave. West Marine HAS to do something about this it is unacceptable.

There were four workers and they were very slow at helping, mind you it was not busy at all in the store. The last straw was asking for a shoe size and no one coming back for 10 mins.

Not worth the hassle.

Since REI is located in an industrial street, there are many parking spots available for this building and the main building. My husband and I took our snowboards to get waxed. This time around, we opted to pay for the hot wax as opposed to their free machine wax. The hot wax is usually $36 each but they were having a promo that it's half off until March. We went on a Saturday mid-afternoon and it took only about 20 minutes. I also wanted to buy some new boots and I put my name down on the sign up sheet on the clipboard. I was the next one in line and thought the wait wouldn't be too long but I still ended up waiting about 30 minutes to be seen. It seemed there was only one guy dedicated to the boot fitting area. After a while, I ended up approaching another worker and thankfully he said he was able to help me out. *Tip if you're going for boot fitting: put your name down on the list but also just ask anyone with a green vest to see if they can help you out so you don't end up unnecessarily waiting a while. I'd like to give Mike a huge shoutout for helping me find the right boots! He was so personable and he took the time to explain what I should feel. He suggested I put insoles in my boots because I have flatter feet and it made a whole difference, so I really appreciate that. Overall, we had a great experience and received wonderful customer experience between getting our boards waxed, fitting for my new boots, and checking out.

REI stands for Recreation Equipment, Inc. Most of the merchandise seems to be geared towards camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities.

My cousin was so happy to find a pair of name brand flip flops for half off (around $50). My other cousin bought some dry-fit clothing. As long as they're happy, right? They are literally Happy Campers! =D
