We resell at our Church Consignment Sale (on season, so there is a little bit of storing) BUT its worth it to me. We have bought our Dicks Sporting Goods (DSG) cleats and shin guards for soccer in the Fall. Recently we came here for a t-ball batting helmet. Man, I know NOTHING about baseball/t-ball and really nothing about batting helmets. One of the employees saw me struggling with a 4 year old and came over. (I forgot his name) Super helpful and we left with a batting helmet, chin strap and a ball...$27. So when I say reliable and convenient...yes we will continue coming here for our sports equipment.

This was my first and last visit to the Academy Sports location at Perimeter Mall in Cumming,…read moreGeorgia. Employees in one department went on break at the same time, leaving the department completely unattended. I requested to speak with a manager specifically to address the lack of coverage. I was approached by an individual who identified himself as the manager, "Chris." I calmly explained what had occurred and expressed my disappointment. His response was dismissive, sarcastic, and lacked any concern or empathy. When I stated that I would be posting a Yelp review regarding the experience, he replied "thank you very much" in a sarcastic manner. As I turned to leave, he began calling my name loudly and aggressively. I exited the store. I later contacted Academy Sports corporate customer service and spoke with an individual named Sev, who identified himself as a Customer Service Supervisor. I explained the entire situation. He expressed concern and stated that he would call me back the same day. I did not receive a call back. When I contacted customer service again, I was told that Sev had emailed me. It was later determined the email had been sent to the wrong address. Once I finally received the email at the correct address, I was informed that he was too busy to call me. This experience gave the clear impression that my complaint was not taken seriously and was simply dismissed. Customer service at both the store and corporate levels was disappointing. For comparison, I have shopped at the Academy Sports location in Cumming, Georgia, and received excellent service there. Unfortunately, that was not the case at this location. I will not be returning.

My brother and I grew up shooting and hunting with our dad and it's something we have been wanting…read moreto do again for years, but we lost our dad in 2018 and even though our dad had handguns, shotguns and rifles, we mainly only shot rifles when we were hunting with our dad and bb and pellet handguns. We were a little nervous to shoot a handgun for the first time and without our dad to teach us the right way. Most gun ranges that we have looked at seem very right wing and judgemental and like we didn't belong. So we thought we would never find a place where we felt safe to shoot. We checked out GUNSMOKE Firearms because a guy at a sporting goods store we were at recommended them because he shoots there. So we decided to go take a look and see what we thought. We also just sold some of dad's old guns and have been looking to purchase a new gun each for protection. We got to GunSmoke with the intention of just looking in the store, looking at the guns and finding out more about the shooting range. There was no right wing branded signs everywhere, the people were super friendly and nice. We told them that we had never really shot handguns, but grew up hunting and using different guns with our dad but we have been wanting to find a shooting range to shoot at. They were so kind and friendly, they told us we could shoot that very day if we wanted and they showed us everything we needed to know about shooting a handgun, where the safety was, how to load the gun, how to hold our hands, how to stand, it made us feel like our dad was there with us. We felt so comfortable we ended up shooting for over an hour. Their prices are some of the best we have found anywhere and we have done our research. They let you rent guns you want to try there. So even though it's a little over an hour away from our house, we loved it and will be back regularly. Thank you GUNSMOKE for giving us this safe place to shoot and feel closer to our dad even though he isn't still here with us.

The level of service at Perimeter is exceptional--thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely elevated. Every associate I encountered greeted me & greeted me warmly. I think it was Bethany who sold me on the membership, but she made the experience personalized, not forced or sale-sy. She started a fitting room for me while I shopped & I always love that. She also told me about the resale section and I got a brand new jacket at a sale price. I also always love that The gentleman in the shoe department was equally impressive, providing expert guidance that made my selection feel confident and informed. He was always there but still gave me lots of space; you get me. Much bigger selection all around compared to the Expressway and the sale items were still relevant. Overall, a refined and exceptional shopping experience. I'm already enjoying my new membership--thank you to the entire team!

Growing up in the PNW, I've been frequenting Recreational Equipment Inc. Co-Op for decades…read more Atlanta has several locations and some better than others. While they are much smaller than the Seattle's, they are more comprehensive gear shops around the Metro. This Perimeter REI is the best in our area. Sure, all Metro locations carry mostly same things plus or minus few inventory items / sizes. For me, it comes down to the staff and currently, this Sandy Springs REI has the most competent and attentive people. Recently, I ordered several hiking boots online and had to return one. I decided to return it to a store rather than by mail. I was educated on such huge staff knowledge differences on simple return process amongst local REI locations. It seems our consumer service level in most places have declined much in the past few years. However, as a Co-Op, REI has mostly kept up their service level even with my recent experience at another location. I appreciate Atlanta has many REI locations in a city that has very limited outdoor gear shops. One thing I absolutely find helpful at REI is their rock ramp to test the boots. Though when I was visiting many were shopping for OC sneakers. The staff here were more knowledgeable and helpful especially if you are early in your outdoor habits. Enjoy!

I drifted into Academy Sports and Outdoors to just do a casual browse around while I was…read morecogitating on weightier matters, which is a very typical and comfortable Old Man behavior. Find a sporting goods or hardware store, and harmlessly cruise the aisles, stopping every once in a to pick up an item, scrutinize it, shake one's head, and put it back, maybe even in the right place that it came from. ş So, I plodded along until I was standing in front of the fishing reel counter. I saw it then. A small micro-sized spinning reel with a large yellow sticker that declared "Clearance! $35". I tried various angles to see what information I could obtain visually, but some evil genius had positioned it in such a way as to make it impossible to develop a buying interest without paging a sales clerk to the area. I reflexively glanced at the time on my cellphone: 3:44pm. So, I67 began my search for an associate to help me. 3:50. Nary a soul in sight..Then, I spotted a Press For Service button beside the live bait cooler so I pressed it: 3:57. While I was waiting I thought about all the times I had found items of interest to me in their flyers, only to discover that store and internet sales were both out of stock. In fact, I had never scored a single item from their ads, out of dozens of attempts. Finally a young woman bustled up. No key to open the display counter. 4:06m. She located a manager, who opened the display and handed me my reel. I liked it so off to checkout. Time:4:28pm. Time to purchase a little fishing reel came to 31 minutes. But, hey, that's better than it might've been at Wally World.
