I have to say Max Sports inside Splendid China Tower just across from Market Village…read more Max Sports carries mostly sports equipment for table tennis, badimonton and tennis, which are all really popular sport activities for Asian population. Trust me, it is not easy to get to really get that seletions of Butterfly table tennis racquets in the other western stores.(I did not realize that Max carries Butterfly so I ended up order one from the US that took forever to arrive!) And they have a great selections of badimonton racquets too! They also has the online stores where you can check out the prices and what they carries! But definitely go in the store and try them out before you buy...

Been playing beach volleyball for the last year and haven't gotten an authentic ball yet. We had…read moreoriginally purchased a cheap volleyball from Walmart but the stitches have started to come out after less than a year. Of course you get what you pay for. Went here as two acquaintances had only good things to say about Canuck Stuff. The prices for the official balls were also lower than places such as Sports Check etc. They sell anything related to volleyball, badminton, etc. The store was quite busy as there were a ton of people checking out shoes and other misc. things. One of the staff Mike was very helpful and helped me find the ball I needed. He asked if it's for outdoor beach and I had said yes. He actually recommended the Mikasa ball which our friend had told us about. I know there were a ton of outdoor beach vballs but we were already set on a particular one. The official Wilson AVP was $44.95. Places selling this usually charge up to $60 range. The price was low at Canuck Stuff as the ball comes flat and doesn't come in a box (they pump it up for you), but rather a light plastic bag to keep it clean & comes with a cloth bag. That's fine with me! Better for the environment. Mike was very patient and kind. Even though he was super busy, he took the time to find the ball as well as answer my questions. He also added a little extra air to the ball and later told me to let some out as it was to help with the shape since it had come inflated. Great service and product. We will definitely be back for any volleyball or badminton equipment. Parking might be tricky on a weekend but I was lucky and found a spot. The store is at the right end of the plaza.

The prices aren't ridiculous either and if you go now you can buy a whole bunch of World Cup South Africa stuff for super cheap!

Tip: This store has huge discounts on authentic sports apparel…read more For the longest time, I have wanted a Blue Jays jersey. When my friend from grade 7 and her husband had tied the knot several years ago, they wore matching Blue Jays jerseys (classic white home ones) to officially mark that they were a married couple. I went to a Jays game a few month back as part of a work event. I visited the Jays store. I found lots of jerseys. They were expensive starting at $300. I ended up getting a t-shirt that was more my price point. The Shopping Channel is running a sale on Jays apparel. There's a 15% discount. I found a jersey that I liked. It was $249. It was still ridiculously expensive for me to splurge. My goal: Find a Jays jersey that doesn't break the bank. I did a search. I found SVP Sports selling the same Jays jersey for $159. Nice! I didn't buy it online. I saw that this store had many jerseys available. I decided to pay this store a visit last Friday night. The SVP Sports store used to be at Woodside Square. It has since moved to a larger location at McCowan Road and Milner Avenue. It's in a plaza with Winners, Starbucks, Mr Sub, and more. It was raining. I parked fairly close to the building. I then walked into the store. Happiness was seeing powder blue jerseys on my right. They were indeed authentic Blue Jays jerseys. Yay! The original price was $200. It was indeed marked down to $159. There was a further reduction. This jersey was going for $79. One word: Wow! I wanted a jersey without any player's number on the back. I tried on two different sizes. As I was trying one of them on, a female sales associate asked if I needed any help. I let her know that I was okay trying on one of the jerseys. She was being helpful. I frankly wanted to be left alone to figure out my size. Sometimes, it's better to let the customer tell you whether she needs assistance and to leave her be. I found the jersey of my dreams. I was elated! There are change rooms at this store. I didn't need one, as it was easy to try on a jersey over my t-shirt that I was wearing. This store has a lot of merchandise that is heavily discounted. I saw NHL caps of all Canadian teams. It hit me that I don't own a Winnipeg Jets cap. I got one for $19. Unheard of! I lined up at the checkout. There were cameras everywhere. I suppose that prices are so cheap on sports clothing, caps, backpacks, and more that theft is an issue. I got a nice woman at the checkout. She asked if anyone had helped me. I said no. She apologized. She didn't need to. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and was great. She let me know what the score was between the Jays and Mariners. It was game 5 in Seattle, with the Mariners leading by 1. Sadly, the Jays lost this game. However, the team ended up winning the entire series. I love my jersey and cap. They are comfy to wear and I didn't break the bank. I'd return for the deals. They are great. The quality of my purchases was excellent. (387)

Visiting SVP Sports was like a journey back in time!! Here you will find "Vintage" brand new hockey…read morejersey from NHL teams that no longer exist for years.... Quebec Nordiques with their last season back in 1994/1995, that was over 20 years ago! There are also some "Vintage" NBA and MLB jerseys! If you do want something for casual shinny hockey maybe fine, as the price is good. I would not say it feels like shopping at Value Village, but you did need to go through a lot of merchandise to find something that you might want to pay for it. Security measure here is quite high. Seems like shoplifting has been a big problem for management?

The cashiers are right at the front, then women's apparel is on the left, shoes behind that, children's apparel in the middle, men's apparel on the right and at the very back of the store is all the sports equipment and related apparel. There was a flash sale online and I went to the store to try the shoes on. I asked the employee that assisted me if the shoes were on sale like they were online. She radioed a manager and was told that physical stores do not honour online flash sales. I would have to purchase the shoes online for pickup and then wait several minutes for the order to filter through to the store's system. The wait was actually much shorter than I expected. After informing the cashier that I had an item to pickup she asked me to stand by the metal storage cabinet by the entrance. Another employee came to check my ID, I signed a slip and then I was good to go. Another time I had an item to return and it was quick and efficient. I was even emailed a $10 off coupon for completing a survey.

If you are going to get your skates sharpened at this place, be vigilant of who the sharpener is…read more There's only 2 fellas I trust with my skates and I would make sure to phone in before dropping by. I've had many occasions where an employee would not change or set the stone to accomodate my 9/16th radius of hollow. When I would get them back for my first skate, I would immediately be able to tell that the individual sharpened my skates with a 5/8" radius of hollow as there wasn't enough bite on the edges as I entered into my power turns. On another note, the service there has declined over the years. There were many times I would venture around the store; checking out the products while waiting for my skates to be sharpened and no one would come over to assist or ask if I needed any help. I've now decided to buy hockey gear elsewhere where I can get better service.
