    So, went in to this hardware store on the main drag in Ft. Bragg twice this week. Just got back from the second trip now. The store has double glass doors at the entrance. When we entered, one door is open, one closed, and on the side of each door is a sand filled can for extinguishing cigarettes, about 2 feet tall. Everyone was friendly inside, including one girl about 20 years old working there that was all smiles. Made our $46 dollar purchase, then decided to have a smoke outside by one of the cigarette cans before heading out. About 1 minute after standing there smoking, the all smiles girl comes out, knocks over the cigarette can, spilling sand and cigarette butts all over the ground and slams the door shut. My friend and I looked at each other and thought "What the hell?" So out of politeness we moved about 20 feet away from the front doors. The girl comes out in about 2 minutes and starts sweeping up the sand. I smiled at her and said "Hey, were you trying to give us a hint?". She scowls and says "Yeah, well" and then something I couldn't understand because of the traffic going by. I'm sure it wasn't pleasant. Why didn't she come out and politely ask us to move away from the front doors? We would have been fine with that. I hope this rude employee gets fired and ISN'T allowed to collect unemployment, although she's probably the owner's precious little princess granddaughter or something that can't get a job anywhere else. As for the store, WTF? If you don't want people smoking there, put up a damn No Smoking Sign and nix the sand cans, or put the sand cans 20 feet to the side of the doors. I can see why this Hardware store has no reviews. I plan to file a complaint with Ace about this, never shop there again, and let everyone I know up here how I feel.

    Great customer service! They are always very helpful. The new layout to the store is also quite nice.

    Hare Creek Nursery and Saw Shop ROKK! (I'm an 80's Dude. Trust me, it's the TOP compliment!)…read more The story "grows," so please read on. OH... I will be placing the same review on the Yelp for Hare Creek NURSERY, as it looks like they have their own Yelp. You only need to read one or the other. (Or you can read both if it helps their business!) SO... I brought an old, neglected Poulan 4000 chainsaw to Hare Creek Nursery and Saw Shop in Ft. Bragg today. (We are moving to our place in the area permanently this summer after YEARS of visits and my wife growing up here and so on...) I brought it in for a service and sharpening at around 11:00am, after the saw sat unused for almost 20 years. (My little electric saw has sufficed over the years "down there.") The Woman at the counter was super helpful, and explained how the diagnostic fee worked and would be applied if the saw could be serviced, but she also gently let me know that the age of the saw and the lack of attention over 20 years could be an issue. After she told Suburban-Me why I couldn't fit a larger bar to it. Because I asked. (At least I knew what the bar was...) Said they would call me early next week with the news, as they weren't super busy. (Stoked! Because I actually called them last August, and was told I could drop said saw off but it might be 4-5 weeks before it was done. Which I now understand. And still should have just dropped off.) So maybe an hour and 15 minutes later, as my daughter and I were finishing lunch at Laurel's Deli, (another GREAT place with ROKKEN service), I got a call from Hare Creek Nursery and Saw Shop. (Because cell service!) Saw was done. Had some issues, but they got it sharpened up and running and should be good for a few more years of real work. I was kinda shocked. They HAD me for the sale of a new Husqvarna. But they salvaged my old saw. (Which was my Father's, and before that my Great Uncle's.) When I picked it up, the Senior Manager came out and told me that when I dropped it off, he overheard me say that I had some trees down on my property that were a problem. So he said he "put the shop on it since it was slow anyway." That is legit SERVICE, the way it should be. That is old-school CLASS, the way it USED to be. THAT is how you create a customer for LIFE. One who will his new Husqvarna from Hare Creek.

    By far the best place on the coast for outdoor power equipment repair. Experienced and…read moreknowledgeable mechanics and a well-equipped shop. I like to fix my own stuff when it's within my ability, and the staff here often help me do so. They have plenty of business and are happy to help people DIY the easy stuff. Great place to buy equipment as well. They can help you decide which model is best for what you want to do, and get you started right.

    This facility does have a fair bit of quality product, however and unfortunately, the reason we…read moregive two stars is because this "HARDWARE STORE" has totally lost track of what a hardware store is all about. We recently gathered a few supplies and made our way to the register. Some of the items were in pre-packaged bags. Some of them were tiny parts collected from bins, with price's and amounts written on bags. We could see they provided small brown paper bags, along with short pre-sharpened pencils. We spent time looking for what we needed then carefully wrote the amount of money that each item cost, and the number of items for said amount. The total amount of tiny collected items added up to roughly $1.75. At the checkout register, we were informed that the store requires the customer go back and write down separate SKU numbers for each tiny item in the bags, in addition to what we already wrote on the bag the price and the amount. We did not have time to walk all the way back go through the bins again to get the SKU numbers so we offered to pay over the price and give 2 . The store held tight on their policy and would not take the two dollars. Rossi's answer was "NO" The Rossi employee rejected our offer in front of everybody else in line. We kindly asked if it would be possible to have a customer service representative gather the SKU numbers for us while we scanned and purchased the remaining items that had SKU numbers already. Rossi's answer was "NO" We continued with the transaction excluding the items that we had collected from the bins. At the end of the sale, i opened my wallet and pulled out a $5. dollar bill cash for the $1.75. worth of items in the bags. Then asked a Rossi employee if it would be acceptable to pay a huge overage and get the items we needed without having to go all the way back and dig up all the SKU numbers on the separate little items .................. Rossi's answer was "NO" Respectfully, citizens of Albion, FortBragg, Mendocino, and beyond
