I will never shop at this place again. I bought a St. Croix rod five days ago and used it Sunday…read morein the grand river. I had put on a spinner and cast it out twice on the second cast the rod splits in 2 pieces and broke. Went back to the Sail store to replace the rod and they said because it was not a clean break "whatever that means" they would not exchange it and that I would have to do it under warranty through St. Croix. Bought five days ago used once on second cast and breaks on a spinner, they should be replacing this rod right on the spot. After-tax this rod cost me $225 and to not replace the rod is criminal. I have had one other rod break on me throughout the years of fishing and at that store "which will remain nameless" replaced the Rod for me right On the spot. Then to go on saying that because they are bankrupt they cannot do anything for me is also criminal, full of excuses to not give me what I paid for especially after breaking after one use and only 5 days old. I am obviously an avid fisherman and spent a lot of money on fishing products but the SAIL store will be the very last place I ever go to to buy anything for fishing the worst company ever. If in fact they are going bankrupt this is just one of the reasons why.

Enormously helpful. The only outdoor store to actually pick up the phone, which they did within a few rings, and then proceeded to provide helpful information. - Affordable options Save yourself the trouble and don't bother with MEC--check the Al Flaherty website, call them with any questions, and arrange to pick it up.

I had heard really good things about this store from fellow hikers and I was excited to check out…read morethe store and purchase a new pair of hiking boots this Sunday afternoon. I walked into the store with a friend and was not greeted by the staff, instead I browsed the sales section while they discussed setting one of their friends up on a blind date. We awkwardly headed to the back of the store to look at the hiking boots but I felt too uncomfortable to ask for any help trying any pairs on. Honestly, I felt as though I would be interrupting the sales clerks conversation. I browsed with my friend for a few minutes and then left. As we walked out the sales clerk was texting on her phone and didn't even look up to say goodbye or ask if we had found what we were looking for. We went to MEC and I purchased a pair of hiking boots there with AMAZING service, MEC even got on the phone to order the boots for me from Victoria BC. I wish I could give zero stars, I was so disappointed.
