0 stars :-( Bad and sad experience…read more We are a couple playing old-time music semi-professionally in our hometown. For a number of reasons we wanted to rent instruments rather than traveling with them. No one responded to the request for contact I sent through the website. I called 21 times (no exaggeration) from Sept 7 - Dec 13 at different times of day when they were supposedly open according to their website. All my calls and visits were during open hours. I wanted to rent an acoustic guitar while visiting family in Hanover in mid-December. There was never an option to leave a message. They answered only twice. The first answer was in late October and an employee said I could come in when I got to town and choose a rental from their supply. A day later we decided to rent a fiddle too. Four more calls later the next week, they finally answered and an employee said yes we could rent a fiddle too. I was a bit leery due to the difficulty of contacting them but decided to plan on the rentals. We got into Hanover, called the store from our Air BnB and got no answer. The next day we went to the store. The door was locked and no one answered our knocks. Their sidewalk sandwich board was folded up and leaning against the wall. We thought maybe they went to lunch. We went back a couple of more times that afternoon and nothing had changed. We also tried calling (four more times) but got no answer. The story ends with no instruments for us and no performance for our family reunion. Big thumbs down and not recommended

US Post Office

A disaster. I mailed a package and sent with delivery confirmation. The delivery person claimed…read morethat the package was left with " an agent, front desk or mail room" It's a single family home and they never tried to get a signature. The package was left under the mailbox in the rain and was vandalized. Someone smashed the side of the box and removed a pair of gold earrings leaving the soggy crinkled smashed box behind. I tried 8 times yesterday to call the post office. The phone rings for number of minutes and then disconnects. I am going to try today again. usps will hopefully cover $100 of their insurance but I am out $200.

I had an awful experience here. Near closing time, my girlfriend and I were in the store when a…read moreworker instructed me to use an alternative door to pick up tape. The moment I returned, another employee--who hadn't moved from her desk the entire time we were there--suddenly jumped up, yelling "What are you doing?" three times, in an aggressive and confrontational tone. It was clear she assumed I was committing a crime--stealing mail, of all things. Only after realizing she had just racially profiled me did she attempt a weak, half-hearted apology. The situation could have been resolved with a simple, professional "Hey, why did you use that door?" instead of immediate hostility and accusations. This kind of blatant profiling is unacceptable, and the employees here clearly need conflict resolution training--or at the very least, basic respect for customers. If you value being treated with dignity, skip this place and take your business to FedEx instead.

Whenever I need any alterations to my clothes, I bring them to Nancy. Now you should understand…read morethat I live about an hour and 45 minutes away from Nancy. And I am sure that there are people in my area who are closer to where I live who I could try out to see if they do a good job. But I don't do that. I periodically visit Conway, and when I do, I visit several places for several different reasons; Home Depot, Lowes, Settlers Green, etc. So, if any of my clothes need alterations, Nancy will be one of the stops that I make on my next visit to Conway. She has a great sense of humor. She is a pleasure to work with. She does a great job. She charges a reasonable price for her work. And she has a reasonable turn-around time. I highly recommend Nancy to anyone needing alterations.

Bubs Plumbing and Heating

Had Bubs out to fix two small leaks and prime our well pump. My mistake was letting them start…read morewithout asking for their rate or an estimate. Getting water running again was our priority but he suggested starting on the leaks. Not long after beginning, Bub's father told me they couldn't attach their fitting to the well line because water was coming through; realizing my well line is gravity-fed after beginning. I had to pull the well line above the water level myself before they could install a shut-off valve. My well cover is about 300lbs and the line is 8ft down. I'm not sure what their plan would've been if I was not there. After saying the water was flowing again, they later told me my pump was done for and not to run it. They quoted $925 for a new pump, not including labor. With two hours of labor, the bill also came to $925 and my family was no closer to having running water. The materials installed were six feet of copper pipe, several compression fittings, a shut off valve, and a pipe hanger. I called another plumber afterward, who knew right away (just from a phone call) that my pump was fine. He had it running smoothly in minutes by clearing a port of sediment and then adjusting the pressure switch. Bub talked a lot about his experience and showed up with help but needed me to find a way to stop the water in order to address the first leak and then either missed or ignored the step that would've gotten my pump working. Their website claims they're transparent and budget-friendly, but I wasn't told his extreme rate upfront, the bill wasn't itemized (still waiting 9 days after he confirmed he would), and I nearly paid for an unnecessary pump replacement. Leaving 2 stars because the copper work itself was solid, but charging $250 per hour for six feet of easily accessible pipe work feels unreasonable. Being given the wrong diagnosis on the pump was unacceptable and raises concerns about their expertise or honesty.
