The counter guy looked up the price and I said no way. We did some small talk and he said let me see what I can do. He cut the price significantly and I was happy. Bought them and made a connection. Nice place to do business.

After visiting a few of the tri-state's gigantic lighting showrooms and leaving empty handed, I…read moredecided to check out this local electric shop in Batavia. The experience was like day and night. We were welcomed warmly by the clerk, who took us over to a table and showed us a catalog of choices. She listened attentively as we explained what we were searching for then showed us what was in stock. We decided upon fixtures from the catalog, ordered them, and had them arrive within two weeks as promised. My family recommended Batavia Electric Supply, being long-time customers of buying wiring and installation supplies for DIY lighting. This place has pretty much everything you need in once stop, including helpful service.

Update: Didn't install the ground wire correctly. The bonding bridge was screwed into the wall and…read morenot connected to anything, including the ground wire. There is no connection to neutral. I was also told the backfilled dirt would "settle", and it sank further into the hole. Now there is a divot and the ground rod is exposed. Hired to add a ground rod. Guys showed up on time and worked quickly, though I did have to remind them to backfill the lawn properly (initially just left a hole there, and the ground rod was barely covered). Dealing with Dave Watkins was a whole other experience. Told him I was going with a different electrician I had worked with prior, and he made many assurances that he would definitely beat the price (told me the range provided on Yelp was "just a number," which was the first red flag). On the day of the service, refused to talk to me on the phone or via text when I asked to discuss the price. Then one week later, gave a price that was higher than initially discussed and that I should reference an "invoice" he sent (he never sent one). When I attempted to discuss the pricing with him, finally, he became aggressive and threatened to put a lien on my house. He then stated that he stands by the quote even if it was half a million dollars. His reason for a higher price was "extra work"; in fact we had discussed the work ahead of time, and it was a standard part of the job (a bonding bridge), making me concerned that he would not have completed the job with required parts if I hadn't reminded him to add it. My experience of working with Dave Watkins is that he will make empty promises, not communicate properly, come up with invoices after the fact, claim that things have happened which did not, and escalate to threats instead of having a conversation with people. I eventually paid the bait and switch amount that he demanded after his threats, but I would hate for anyone else to end up in that position. I would never work with this company again.

Remember the Julia Roberts movie Pretty Woman? Remember when she tried to go shopping and the…read morepretentious sales woman wouldn't help her? Well, my experience today was that. Keep in mind, unlike the Julia Roberts character, I'm not a hooker...I'm actually very well educated and have a dream job. From the second I stepped foot in the door, I was treated like I was interrupting a stem cell transplant. Like the sales clerks were in the middle of some heroic life save procedure and I had the audacity to interrupt them. As they flipped through their catalog and looked over their readers at me with distain dripping from their faces, I realized I had had come to the wrong store in which to "shop local". (According to the big sign on the door, they'd like you to believe they want you to "shop local". Not so much. They flat out told me to go to Amazon.) Here's the deal. They sell light fixtures. They do not cure cancer. It's lighting. Not doing open heart surgery. Selling wires, shiny stuff and light bulbs. Heroes? Elite world changers? Nobel prize winners? Nope. Rude sales women. Seriously. Save yourself the frustration and go to Amazon. Or Restoration Hardware. Or, Menards for the love! Just DO NOT BOTHER THESE PEOPLE. You are not worth their precious time or attention. They must be about the daunting task of....ummm...not saving lives.
