If you are a fan then there's not a lot I can say that will give you new information, but that's not a bad thing. We needed to grab a jacket for my wife because, even though it was the middle of summer, we have lived in Las Vegas for several years now and AK summer is about the smae as the dead of winter in our new hometown. We were able to find her a jacket in the bargain cave to wear for our week there and probably won't wear much ever again. this made us grateful for the bargain cave price. The employees were very friendly and helpful and the whole asthetic was awesome, as always.

After purchasing the incorrect size in industrial snow pants from AIH, (and spending a fortune), I was happy we decided to try Cabela's. We arrived right at 10am opening. There were rack's of traditional bib snow pants, in the middle of the store, easily visible from the front entrance. We dove straight in looking for the size we needed. Two members of their customer service team or (item recovery team), rushed out to assist us. I appreciated it, because I didn't want to look thru several racks if I didn't need to. However, I am always able to see the underlying reasons of things. Cabela's definitely doesn't want people browsing/window shopping

REI Anchorage is in its third location since I started shopping here in the '80s. This one is way large. special shout out to the ski rental shop, and honorable mention to Marcus for taking the time to chat with us about what we needed, where the trails were good - etc. Rented two days for nice cc skiing at Kincaid, equipment was in great condition. ended up buying a pair of boots after great assistance with trying them on (though one does have to make oneself visible - the staffing is a little lean imo). all a way of saying, i am glad REI continues to be a great resource in my hometown. recommend you shop here.

Today, two weeks later I went to return the size 11 boots that don't fit., that have never been worn outside, and was told that I've been banned from returns. I didn't receive any emails about this, I searched my email and my spam and deleted folders, nor did I receive any snail mail. I've been a member since 2008 and have spent over $40,000 at REI over the years, I guess that doesn't count for anything. For outdoor gear, I recommend shopping local and going to AMH. (Alaska, mountaineering and hiking.) Update: now every time I buy something from REI a manager has to come up and tell me about what a bad consumer I am before I'm allowed to buy something from them.

This store is the worst. I ordered a gun. They did not have it ready to pick up when advertised,…read morethen when I finally did get there to pick it up they said they had cancelled my order and refunded me without notice. I also never saw a refund. Wasted my time and I still haven't gotten my money back. AVOID. Full story follows... Ordered a gun on August 17th. I live 2.5 hours' drive away from the store. Estimated pickup was August 25. I had a trip to Anchorage planned for early September so it seemed like that was fine. August 25th came and went with no update. On the 28th I contacted customer support and they said the gun had arrived but wasn't ready to be picked up yet. My trip to Anchorage came and went. While there I stopped by the store but they said I couldn't pick it up yet... OK... Fine. I don't know when I'll be back to Anchorage, but whatever. Finally I got a notice on September 4th (11 days later than advertised) that my gun was ready for pickup. Well now I couldn't get to Anchorage for a bit. Should be fine right? They delayed me so they should be able to handle a delay from my end. I can't make it to Anchorage on the regular. I went to Anchorage today October 4th, to finally get my gun. I had multiple emails (the last from September 29th) saying my gun was ready for pickup. I go into the store and they couldn't find it. Then they told me that the order had automatically been cancelled because I didn't pick it up in time. They said I should have been automatically refunded. I hadn't. I also hadn't received any notice about this. I got a little heated and they threatened to kick me out of the store. Fine. I calmed down. I asked if the gun was there today. They said it was. I asked if I could buy it at the same price that I ordered it for (I ordered it on sale). They said they could not honor that. I walked out. I just got home from Anchorage and I double-checked my credit card and I still have not received a refund. They will be getting a charge-back from me as they have essentially ROBBED me at this point beyond wasting my time and being completely unhelpful in any way whatsoever.

Since many of the guns they sell are used and on consignment, they have some of the best prices in town. Roy took the time to answer my questions, explain some things to me and didn't try to sell me girlie pink crap. I was also amazed at how many guns fit in this tiny, TINY store. There's so much stuff crammed in the store, you basically have to tell them what you're looking for or you'll never find it. They have a TON of rifles. I mean a TON. Like a lot of gun shops in town, they also accept trades, which is awesome And best of all, THEY HAVE AMMOI IN STOCK. I repeat, they have ammo in stock. Nobody in town has ammo these days, but Gun Runners does. Woooohooo! Finally, I like Gun Runners because it's LOCALLY owned and operated and very Alaskan-y.

It wasn't nasty or misleading review I simply stated that it was meant for thinner stocked rifles. Come to find out my review wasn't posted and upon a closer look I found out that they only post 5 star reviews on their page. That is a very sleazy way to do business. Now I have to have another piece of suede sewn onto the butt cuff so it tucks in and fits as it should. They get a one star from me for dishonesty!
