Let me tell you....when this Target (pronounced: tar-jz-eh...because pronoucing things as if they were French makes it/us classy) came into my little NH life, it was a giant beacon of light in the bargain shopping world! The dollar section - always a must (you can find all sorts of stuff in there...some more useful than others, but it's a DOLLAR). I always love Target's clothing selection - kind of cheap hipster-chic, and their clearance rack often yields excellent finds. Always a clean and put-together store with great customer service and just about anything you're looking for (batteries? closet organizer? fedora? warm pretzel? - all of the above *and more*).
This particular review was sparked by my recent stop and purchase of *da-da-da-DA!!!* my Droid 2 !!!! That's right, peeps, there is now a Verizon kiosk at the Concord Tarjayyyyy!
#1: my Mum had phoned earlier and had asked the hours of this particular part of the store (Target closes at 10pm, but the kiosk itself/the customer service rep leaves at 9p); upon hearing the hours, and knowing that I was commuting up from Boston, she asked if there was any way that the rep wouldn't mind staying until I arrive (by 8:45) to make the sale. The answer: yes (the Verizon store would NOT have done this for us).
#2: I had narrowed my upgrade selection down to the Droid 2 and the HTC Incredible. So I was playing with the display phones (you know...click-click, tap-tap, what seems like it could take a hit if I dropped it from my clumsy fingers) when I was approached by the rep, Dexter, who had guessed that I was the late appointment. He took my requirements into consideration and we debated the pro's and con's of each phone (....I apparently know nothing about consumer report research, lol, this guy knows his isht!). He helped me with my selection (the keyboard really makes the difference, in case you, reader, are ALSO looking to upgrade to 3G).
#3: Family arrives, Dexter gives each one of us the attention and advice we require (SERIOUSLY dedicated to customer service). He gave individual and detailed product descriptions, pricing, billing, connectivity, etc - on ANY phone we asked about (even phones not in our network - I had been curious about the HTC equipped with hinged keyboard, so he gave me the det's). He walks us through the 2year contact, he describes what we're buying and what we're paying....step-by-step-by-step.
#4: Helps both my brother (HTC-devotee) and myself start up our phones and download some crucial app's ("task manager" and "anti-virus"...neither I would have known about if it hadn't been for Dexter, THANK YOU!). He helped us connect with Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, settings adjustments, let us know about useful app's (and how to avoid additional charges - yikes!). The man stayed with us until NEARLY 10PM!!!! AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! AND he said that if we EVER had a problem to swing by the store and he'd sit down with us and help us out (the Droid's manual is SO big it doesn't actually come with the phone when you buy it....what?!), and he said that he'd help me out over the phone since I live so far away. Holy - moley - NEVER have I EVER been assisted by such a devoted and insightful representative.
Target's cool - - - but this is DEF where I'll be at for future Verizon needs (this dude knows it all). read more
