I also like that they greet you, when you walk into the store. I have ordered items on-line in the past and they arrived to my home within a day or two. Another plus in my book. Service is great, and the return policy is not bad. Way to go Dicks Sporting Goods! You have my vote.

Now when you call, it's like a hassle for them to check if they have a product. I get transferred to shoes and wait on hold, no one answers so routed back to same guy who says nothing kind or informative, just without a word transfers me back to shoes to wait again, woman answers and again it's like you're putting them out. A whole store of shoes (presumably) but "only one men's pickleball shoe." I guess only men play pickleball? No "I'm sorry. We'll let the owner know there's a request for women's pickleball shoes." Just, "I'm just telling you what we have." Yes, that is all you are doing. This is why everyone is buying on Amazon. Personally I'd still like to try shoes on before I buy them.

Big 5 Sporting Good has everything that you need. I enjoy their prices on their shoe, very reasonable. We have been to different Big 5 Sporting goods in different locations.

Staff is very helpful, we did a lot of checkout changes and I knew it was frustrating to keep rescanning everything but the staff was so friendly and nice about it, they calmly checked us out. Sometimes they have really good clearance deals as well on seasonal items that are out of season. They just don't have a restroom so when my son has to go to the restroom the only option close by was target!

Despite my dad having multiple exchanges (with some mismatched receipts), the Customer Service rep/cashier Savannah was excellent. Not only was she patient with us, she also offered an option for my dad to consider (i.e. transfer unused health fitness credit onto a store gift card, which has no expiration, so my dad would no longer have to be concerned with the "use it or lose it" worry of any unused credit). We appreciated the problem-solving effort and it demonstrates how the store values service to specific customer concerns.

I came here months ago to pick up a Ruger Mini-14 Ranch Rifle before all this nonsense panic gun…read morebuying started. The reason I chose Big5 over a regular gun shop is because you don't, at least back then, need an appointment for your firearms test. You do have to make sure that you take it while a manager is there, so your best bet is calling ahead. The whole testing and purchasing process was very quick and easy. I even got a discount that just about matched the lowest prices I saw on line (I don't think they price match). Also, they are not an FFL for internet gun sales, so if you buy a gun online, you can't have it shipped here. I've been back since for a 16 gun gun safe, a hard sided rifle case, and most recently, a small 4 person tent for my yard since I work in healthcare and if I get exposed to a COVID-19 patient, I will need to isolate myself from my family. It's not as big as the one in Brea, but I keep coming back here because they have what I want in stock and the parking is easy and the staff friendly.

He's knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and genuinely helpful. He represents what a specialty retailer should be. I've spent 1000's on firearms and ammunition over the years. Unfortunately, this visit was the opposite. I came in looking for M&P Shield 9mm magazines. Only one in stock -- not a problem. I figured I'd grab some ammo while I was there. As I stood in front of the ammo section trying to read the boxes, two employees directly in front of me made zero effort to acknowledge me. Not a "Can I help you?" Not even eye contact. Instead, they were occupied repeatedly racking the slide on a pistol and discussing how it was "blemished." The way it was being handled made it feel less like product inspection and more like someone building a case for why it should be discounted. I can't say for certain that the larger employee was intentionally trying to create or exaggerate wear to justify purchasing it himself -- but if that wasn't the case, the optics were spectacularly poor. What really stood out was the conversation. They were openly speaking negatively about other customers -- people who sounded like regulars -- directly in front of me. It takes a certain level of tone-deaf confidence to mock customers while another one is standing three feet away. I finally asked if they might have additional magazines in the back. The larger employee ignored me initially. When he did respond, it was with, "Are you talking to me? I'm doing paperwork," as though customer interaction was an unreasonable interruption. This was moments after he demonstrated that he was fully capable of multitasking slide manipulation and social commentary. I briefly considered asking for a manager, but decided it wasn't worth engaging further. If basic awareness and professionalism are optional on the floor, that's a leadership issue, not just an employee one. I left disappointed -- not because inventory was limited, but because the standard of service was. Specialty stores survive on expertise and professionalism. When that slips, you're just a warehouse with attitude. I hope management takes this seriously. There are strong employees at this location. Unfortunately, consistency appears to be selective.

Upon entering everything is sorted in sections, they have a variety of things for sale and they have signs for trade ins or buying your old things as well.

We looked around and we asked about the bikes and was able to try one of them to see of it'll work for a particular body size. The staff were very helpful and they all helped answer questions.

Instead of listening or trying to help, she acted irritated the entire time and kept changing the story to avoid fixing the problem. The whole interaction felt hostile and unnecessarily difficult. Customer service clearly means nothing to her. There was zero accountability, zero effort to make things right, and she treated paying customers like they were an inconvenience. It honestly felt like she cared more about arguing than helping.
